=='''Meet the Garden of Eden Creation Kit!'''==
Welcome to the Fallout 3 mod community!
This category is your hub to getting started in the GECK tool we used to create Fallout 3's quests, items, enemies, areas, and almost everything else you interact with in the game.  Learning to use this tool will empower you change all of these aspects of the game, too.
If you're familiar with the Elder Scrolls Construction Set tool, check out [[What's New in GECK v1.0?|what's new and improved]] to get an overview of what to expect from the GECK.
If you're new to modding Bethesda Game Studios' games, or new to modding in general, then you may want to check out our "My First Vault" tutorial series, introduced below. 
This tutorial series is a collaborative effort of Bethesda developers to help you get your feet wet by building your very own Vault.  We'll walk you through every step involved from setting up the GECK to preparing your content to be shared with the online Mod Community!
Thanks again for your interest; we can't wait to see what you come up with.
