Hey there. I just got my account here, however I have gotten mods from here before getting an account. If anyone can help me out with modding (because I'm an idiot when it comes to making mods), I could use some help.

Any simple tools for making a mod.

Well, Pakscape can be used for opening PK3 files, Notepad++ can come in handy, GTK Radiant is used for making maps, Audacity is used for Audio editing and GIMP is a good program for texture editing - it's basically free Photoshop.

I'm afraid Notepad is the only tool I heard of that I think I know how to use.

Pakscape is pretty much another Windows Explorer for opening PK3 files, to put it in simple terms. It's basically a must-have for JKA modding.

Notepad++ is a slightly more advanced version of Notepad with more features, it's pretty useful.

Audacity is just used for audio editing, and is completely optional. I myself, love this program - I use it for just about everything. Would recommend.

GIMP, once again, is a lot like Photoshop, but completely free. Can be used to edit any kind of image. Would also recommend.

GTK Radiant is only used for Mapping. If this isn't a thing that you want to do, that's completely fine - it can get fairly complex.
