It depends on what you're trying to do. What are you wanting to make happen?

When the official forums come back up then I can point you to a do-it-yourself mod for some things, made by Smashly. Other than that I would say the only easy way is editing the files you want to change if it is something basic like changing character skins or messing with a few variables.

What the most Easy .. ? Editing Character Skin , or Editing Weapon , or something else
i just wanna try it myself ._.vv

btw thanks for the help i really apreciated it ^_^

I hate to bump an old topic, but I pretty much have similar questions to the OP. I don't want to edit skins or anything like that. I was mostly concerned with whether I could change character traits (and thus, skills), weapon stats, that kind of thing?

Thats what I want to do eventually, at this point I'd settle for just a basic guide first telling me precisely what tools I need and how to get to the point that I can begin looking for the stuff I want to change. :p Sorry for the complete newb question. Starting to get burned out on the vanilla stuff so I wanted to change it up a bit to my own tastes for my next run.

Here is a very simple tutorial which covers all the steps of making a mod for State of Decay (with pictures and stuff):
