i was wondering because i thought about of making my own mod
Makeing a simple mod that only has new items and things like that isnt to hard, basically you need 3 tools
1 a mpq extractor
2 a spreadsheet program
3 a tbl editor to edit the text shown in the game
Then again makeing a big mod that changes maps grafix game funktions and other big things is more complicated coz you need to learn so meny different areas. Iv been working on a huge mod for about a year now and it far from ready.
Makeing mods requires serious dedication, and nervs of steel coz getting errors and fixing bugs is a part of modmakeing. And once you learn one thing you notice you need to learn another, and another...
If you want to learn the basics, go to Phrozen keep (the link ni posted a few posts above thisone) and download the beginners guide to modmakeing to get started.
