Just wanted to ask the modders here:
What computer background skills did you have before modding?
Was Freelancer the first game that got you into Modding?
What advice would you give to others who would be interested in Modding?
Computer skills? nothing special.
What got me personally into modding? Well, just willingness to improve the game. That's probably the main requirement - if you don't play yourself and just mod 'to get it modded', result will never be the best.
Advice for modders? As for Freelancer, just pay attention to lancersreactor.com tutorials and forums, they've got it all.

Well, I'm not, and have not, worked on the Discovery mod, but I originally got into modding for games back when I played "Battlezone" for the PC. Best game ever, it's just too bad it doesn't work well on current day PC's.
Computer skills: Before I got into modding, absolutely none... just started tinkering.
Same advice as Igiss, the LancersReactor.Com website and forums are awesome for information for FL.
I run into moding why i know prgram games, ect. then i bought freelancer first i tough its just a simple game and then i learned how to mod from a good teacher and run into moding.
