I see alot of people comment on mods asking the author to make a version with the most simple changes etc. These are basic guides that include pictures should be very easy to follow.

Modding programs you will need:
FO4 Edit: https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/2737/?
-This is where I do most of my modding. Once you get the hang of it its really easy to use. 

Other useful modding programs and tutorials:
Bethesda Archive Extractor (BAE): https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/78
-Used to extract files from the BA2 Archives.

zedit: https://github.com/z-edit/zedit/releases
-This is an program that can be used to merge your mods together (I got grey screen for FO4 using this so I just use Merge Plugins)

Current Tutorials:
1. How to get an item to be worn over other clothing (E.g Gas Masks with helmets, accessories over clothing) by editing the First Person Flags. This same method is used for Skyrim, FNV, and probably Fallout 3 as well.
-Heres a link to another users mini-tutorial that also includes some photos (Sticky post #4 under spoilers). https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/37256?tab=posts

2. Fixing Creation Club paints not showing by re-adding the paints keywords caused by outdated/conflicting mods.

3. Removing AWKCR and AE from other mods so that they don't require them. I've been told the newer versions of FO4 Edit don't allow removing of masters find an older version (Im not sure how far back).

4. Making custom categories for crafting menus. Can be used for Skyrim to. 

Future plans:
-Definitions and explanations
-More tutorials
