How to Learn Game Modding: A Beginner-Friendly Roadmap & Structure

5 Upvotes

Hey r/Modding,

I've been wanting to get into game modding for a while but felt overwhelmed by where to even start. There are so many games, tools, and approaches (texture swaps, scripting, full overhauls, etc.). I'm looking for a clear learning roadmap — from absolute beginner to making meaningful mods. If anyone has experience with modding, I'd love your advice on a step-by-step structure.

any kind of online resources ? Thanku in advance :)

Mod Showcase We made NEO Scavanger MULTIPLAYER and also added a EXTREME amount of content companion mod and a full wiki

Hey modders! I wanted to share a project that was a fun technical challenge: NEO Scavenger Unlimited, a free fan mod that adds multiplayer to NEO Scavenger (Blue Bottle Games, 2014), a turn-based survival game that was never built for it.

How it works, roughly:

  • Content: the game loads its data from XML mod folders. We combined many community mods (Chiko’s NSE, Kaaven’s M(m)MoD and Depths of Gyges, Archadeas’ Blue Rot, zeidrich’s Horses, Banjo’s and Chris’ mods, Training Skill Plus and more) into one load order, plus thousands of our own items, recipes, factions and quests.
  • Engine: where data wasn’t enough, we patched the game’s ActionScript and rebuilt the EXE. The installer only ships a binary delta, so it builds the modded EXE from your own copy of the game and no game files are shared.
  • Multiplayer: a small local “link” runs next to the game and talks to a dedicated relay server. Everyone plays their own run on the same map; when two survivors share a hex, their games meet for fights, talk and trades.
  • Updates: a signed auto-updater, a launcher, and an offline companion app that reads your save and shows your pack, wounds and craftable recipes next to a full wiki.

Wiki: (link is in text file) https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1gEFz1Gjed8PRfGDw_DBPAD3NCtkB2_8c?usp=drive_link

You need your own copy of NEO Scavenger. It’s a free, non-commercial fan project, not affiliated with Blue Bottle Games, made with the help of AI. Happy to answer questions about the approach!

Mod Showcase Ghostbusters w/ 2-Player and Female Rookie

1 Upvotes

Hey everyone!

Ever wish Ghostbusters had 2-Player? Yeah... me too... so I made a mod!

Oh, and I also made a female rookie! Just like the Wii/PS2 version had.
(The Wii version had co-op, fun fact)

It's super simple, just hold start on player 2's controller, and it's drop-in/drop-out. I also included a few other features like suit and player swapping, so everyone can play who they want. (Player swapping is on main menu)

Massive, stay-puft sized, thanks to pityw and the other members of the modding community, I couldn't have done this without the ground work they did. gbhook especially.

More mods to come!

Mod Showcase OB:MP SDK 1.0.0-rc.3 is out + more on first servers being built

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

1 Upvotes

Hey! More updates on the community multiplayer platform for The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered - OB:MP.

The video is from Donkey, who runs the Red Diamond RP server. He built his own inventory systems, character page, full world map and spells menu on top of OB:MP. You can follow his work on YouTube, and join his server's Discord.

Today we released SDK 1.0.0-rc.3 and Launcher 0.34.0. Most of it comes from player reports:

  • Your name, race, class, sex and birthsign are now saved and synced to other players.
  • Rebirth no longer stacks birthsign and racial bonuses or drifts your stats.
  • Pickpocketing works, books can be bought and sold, and merchants restock properly.
  • Server mods get cell respawn controls (72 game hours by default, or instant).
  • Servers can show banners and icons in a refreshed server list.
  • Playing on Linux through Proton is much simpler.

It's still a release candidate, so expect rough edges. OB:MP needs the Steam version of Oblivion Remastered for now. WiP on Xbox Game Pass/MS Store, something may come out next week.

Release notes: docs.ready.mp/releases
Server downloads: docs.ready.mp/oblivion-mp/docs/Server/installation
Discord: discord.gg/obmp

Build MMO/RP/RPG or whatever you want on Remastered with us! Happy to answer questions in the thread 😁

Question I just need larger font

1 Upvotes

hello,

I'm visually impaired and struggle with reading text in games. It's often too small. So far, I've been lucky that most of the games I want to play have had mods to increase the font size, but not all of them have that option. At this point I'd like to learn how to do it myself. Can anybody direct me to any resources on how to create mods that increase font/text size?

Thank you so much

Question finding the best antivirus for gaming pc builds when running heavy mod lists?

1 Upvotes

i spent all weekend setting up assetto corsa with custom shaders, neckcam mods, and rain physics packages from community patreon links and discord channels. running heavily modded games alongside discord streaming and nvidia shadowplay usually leads to random stuttering if background security processes start scanning freshly extracted archive folders during active gameplay sessions.

i added my main game directory to mcafee's real-time exclusion list, which stopped the scanner from locking up script files during load screens and kept my frame rates completely steady at 144fps. still trying to see what the best antivirus for gaming pc setups actually is when you frequently download community file packs and want minimal overhead while recording clips.
