Hello, I'm Teh_Catface and I'm wondering how to start modding. Are there any programs that could help me get started? Is there someone out there who could teach me how to get started over skype? Is there anything in general that you can help me with?
MCP is a REALLY helpful program, but you'll need a tutorial to understand it... I'd say search for it (on this forum). If you find a topic where the poster's avatar is a cat, you're in the right place! Last I checked.
