Modding SD44 Files

[The Hitman]

I'm sure this is a noob question for the modders, but does anyone know what program you need to work on the NDF files for modding Steel Division? I read the modding manual but it's not very clear. My searches haven't been fruitful.

I'm assuming it's so basic that nobody has even posted about it, but I'd like to try out modding this game.

Much appreciated.

Hello, you can use almost any text editing programs as far as i know.

For more ease i suggest you to use code editors.
Here some good (free) code editors i often use:

Thanks proto, I'll check it out.

Was surprised to find that I picked up the modding fairly quickly so far. I'm sure it would be harder to do advanced stuff, but balancing and reverting the crit system was straightforward.
