I would like to know if anyone has or can make a video tutorial for modding. I follow all instructions of the threads like the awesome "make your own weapons" thread and such.
I cant' get anything to work, so I'm asking the wonderful community here.
Also: Can't for the life of me figure out how to make the zip a .ftl, so that would be helpful too so my mods can be shared. I have excellent ideas and would love to get them out there!

Re: Video Tutorial for Modding?
If you use the command line (and are in Windows), and your mod is named mymod.zip:
ren mymod.zip mymod.ftl
If you use explorer, highlight the mod that is a zip file, hit F2, and change the file name from mymod.zip to mymod.ftl
If you have "show file extensions" off in Windows, turn it on. That's one of the worst default settings in all of computing. But really that's it, they're just different extensions on the exact same file.
