			'''Extra Information'''
			----------------------------------------------------------------------------


			'''".zip files and folders"'''

			You can make as many .zip files in your mod folder but you must know what kind of folders to put.

			Example we make "weapons.zip" file and place "textures" folder in it and place all the texture files to the folder so that you will remember what kind of files in the .zip file cause you named your file weapons so you know its everything or something about weapons so you could add either weapon textures to the .zip file or make everything including weapon scripts and weapon textures/skins the game automatically takes and uses your .zip files it opens them up but if there is "unreadable" files or folders it will not use them in your mod if they have normal names like: "skin" "weapons" "textures" "server" "admin" "script"

			I mean normal names but folders are recommended to have lower cased letters like "skin" NOT! "Skin" or "SKIN" copy.



			'''"How to make a mod (easy)"'''

			This is very simple and easy guide how to make a mod.

			Copy the "ModWarfare" folder to cod4/mods/ then rename to the name you want your mod to have so use any lower case or uppercase it will show the way you make it. There are 2 ways to edit your mod. First way is just editing by your likings or second way by deleting all and doing it all from scratch.

			1. Edit the current files, delete some, replace some, add some.

			2. Delete all the files and place your own files like .zip files that includ scrips or skins or even maps.



			ModWarfare is allowed to copy, edit but DO NOT USE IT FOR COMMERCIAL USE!

			ModWarfare is just a demo mod that previews what or how you could make mods but its premade mod like prefabs for "Radiant"
