How do you ad new items in the store? Is there a way without knowing how to program? like you can do other mods.

Is there a way to add more starting locations? instead of whats there like New York and stuff if I wanted to add lets say Toronto, Canada, or something else?

Is there a way to extract the dev files that people made like the FBI mod or simply uplink, so I could mix and match?

You would need to edit the source code

No. Those other mods were created by people who could code.

You could extract some of the graphics used but not the fundamental changes since they are contained within the executable.

do I need to edit the source code for everything I asked? because I know you could do some stuff with just text editing like company names and so on, lol plus you could make gateway's and stuff, lol I really want to add new starting gateway's lol

Yes.

Only gateways, LANs, graphics, sounds and company names can be changed/added with out needing access to the source code.

You? Seriously there are a few people around here with the source code, (like me)

but there are even fewer who will do mods for it, (i wont)

best thing is if you want something done, you do it, download the source code, learn C and do it

I am a real fast learner, all I would need is the dev cd and i'm sure I could make something but no cash right now for the new dev cd
