[HELP]I wamt to create a mod and I dont know where/how to start

Hello :biggrin:.
I've planning to make a wad for zandronum in order to be played in multiplayer. I want to focus on crating some maps to play DM and also create some weapons for it, but I dont know how to do it or neither where to start.
I tried looking for tutorials but I dont find any or some videos where they dont show anything or explains something.
If someone want to help me i'll be posting any suggerences on where to start/What to do in this post, so in the end we have like a "Begguiner's guide" post.

Many thanks :lol: !

First of all visit and bookmark massive help site:
https://zdoom.org/wiki/

Try reading stuff about ACS, Decorate. There's a bunch of information and examples. If you have any experience with programming from school that should be enough, however if none of the pages ring a bell, try googling it. There is more than enough info to get started .
Also, if you are entirely focused on multiplayer, take a look at Zandronum wiki as well:
https://wiki.zandronum.com/Main_Page
For creating maps get a GZDooM builder:
https://devbuilds.drdteam.org/doombuilder2-gzdb/
For editing/modifying/creating WAD/PK3 files:
http://slade.mancubus.net/

Many thanks! I'll start searching for tutorials like how to make a new gun.
