Help to start modding!

[AKronblad]

Hello

I have never attempted modding Paradox games but have some programming experience over the years, so I hope to get into it fairly quickly once I actually get "ändan ur vagnen" (Swedish censorship...)

Which is the easiest way to get started? If through just playing around, would it make sense to copy certain folders and files (which? and into where?) and change them to see what happens?

Apart from this, any threads or manuals or guides that could be of help?

I would not dare attempting any changes to the map yet...

Many thanks for your help!

The easiest way to get started is to look in the files, especially the history files and see how they work. History files are the easiest to mod.

Thanks for the thread link and the advice!

I was counting on Descartes having produced a guide on this!
