+	STEP 1: Make sure you have all the necessary software.
+
+1. Tremulous + stock maps
+
+The game has to be installed and you'll need all the maps that come
+preinstalled. It's better if you didn't have any other maps while compiling
+Analmango.
+
+2. q3map2, the map compiler
+
+A good, recent version is distributed along with NetRadiant:
+https://www.icculus.org/netradiant
+
+3. mapcat, the map concatenator
+
+Analmango comes in parts which have to be assembled by a special program.
+https://zittrig.eu/git/enneract/mapcat
+
+4. GNU Make
+5. Bash all the standard tools you'd expect on a Linux system
+6. zip (if you want a .pk3)
+
+	STEP 2: Configure the build process.
+
+Create a file named "Makefile.local" in the same directory as "Makefile" and
+put settings you want to override in it. For example:
+
+Q3MAP_THREADS = 4
+FS_BASEPATH = /opt/tremulous
+.. and so on.
+
+Settings you can override:
+
+FS_BASEPATH   = path to your Tremulous installation
+FS_HOMEPATH   = path to your Tremulous "home" folder
+TREMULOUS     = path to Tremulous's executable (optional).
+Q3MAP_THREADS = number of threads q3map2 should use
+Q3MAP2        = path to q3map2's executable
+
+	STEP 3: Make Analmango files visible to q3map.
+
+The following folders have to be in FS_BASEPATH/base or FS_HOMEPATH/base: env,
+levelshots, maps, models, scripts, sound, textures. You don't have to copy them,
+a symlink will suffice.
+
+	STEP 4: Run make
+
+make          - assemble the entire map and compile it.
+make test     - compile and run Tremulous
+make clean    - remove all built files
+
+You can also set a few environment variables:
+
+PART=... make - build a single part (e.g. PART=p8_outside make test).
+FAST=... make - save some time by compiling with shittier light (FAST=1) or no
+                light at all (FAST=2).
