Modding basics

[soccershark7]

I am new to modding MoW, but i really need help getting started so if somebody could help me or point me in the right direction thatd be great. I want to learn how to modify a weapons stats, and i have learned you into its file in the stuff/set/... with notepad but i was only able to see modded weapons from the mods i am using right now. How do i find the stuff/set/... for the original weapons from MoW. This goes for the vehicle and human files too. I know that there is a search bar and i have been using it, but i cant find anything on this. i would really appreciate if somebody could help me out.

Most of the files you are looking for are under (game_folder)/resource , or in the main game folder, if they were a part of patches (for MoW, not with the recent MoW AS patches). If you look over the game files, you will see that they are in *.pak format, and the patches are *.pat format. You can simply open them with winrar, no problems will occur. The set/stuff/ folder which you are looking for is in the game.pak, the same can be said for MoW V and MoW RT, if you go looking for them in MoW AS, you will find it under gamelogic.pak.
Does that answer your question?

Yeah thanks! I've been going off of the layout in the main game folder and comparing it with the stargate mod. Theyre both layed out very differently but I got it now.
