    the easyest way to create an mod is:

    1. goto your ...\Battlefield 2\mods\ , create a new Folder with your modname
    2. copy all the files and folders from ...\Battlefield 2\mods\bf2\ to your new folder
    3. goto your modfolder and extract contents of Objects_server.zip to any location of your PC , thats the Place where you will edit your files
    4. make all the extracted files writable , because they are readonly when u extract them
    5. make your changes in one file , maybe \Weapons\Handheld\USRGL_M203\USRGL_M203.tweak
    change:
    line 150 ObjectTemplate.velocity 50 to 75
    line 122 ObjectTemplate.detonation.explosionRadius 5 to 50
    line 124 ObjectTemplate.detonation.explosionDamage 150 to 10000

    6. save the file and copy it back to the .zip archive
    7. goto your desktop , copy the link to your original BF2 and edit the Properties to
    "...\Battlefield 2\BF2.exe" +menu 1 +fullscreen 1 +modPath mods/modname

    8. start the game with this link, start an singleplayer game and choose US Assault , now you have some kind of nuclear grenade launcher

    I hope i didnt forget anything , but if you do it that way it should work

      This (quoted part) is probably the hardest way to edit things.

      1. Open the editor, go to the mod folder you created with bf2 editor, and go to object editing tool(whatever its called)

      2. On the window to the left, with the hierarchy, look near the top. There will be a little + sign. Click it.

      3. Click load resource, on the window that pops up. Scroll up to Battlefield 2 on the top scroll bar(or a mod, if you want to grab something in a mod folder), and click on a folder you want to put into your mod(or dig deeper, and pick specific things).

      4. Omg you win.

          You have to copy over and extract levels... as far as I know, anyways.
