 Put a full vanilla res.pak and ModTools into this directory. Vanilla files will be stored in CDBV and PAKV.
 Create dirs CDB and PAK, and only put the files you edited. Refer to the [Corrupted](https://gitlab.com/alaah/dead-cells-corrupted-mode) files for an example.
 
+# Howto
+Edit config to your needs, and make sure the Dead Cells path is correct.
+Run extract-vanilla to get your vanilla directories.
+Then you can use the "compilers".
+
 # Files
-* compile-all – exec compile-cdb and compile-pak
-* compile-cdb – collapse the CDB dir into PAK/data.cdb
-* compile-pak – build the mod and optionally launch dead cells
-* config – variables; edit to your needs
-* extract-vanilla – extracts the full res.pak
