modding?

[drewbirdcraddock1]

I know nothing about modding or even modding on steam. how easy would it be for me to start and would i be able to start a steam workshop?

ideas: tweaking mechanics that are pointless or take away from the games (dancing, lax crew retention)
graphics enhancement

im not looking to cheat, i would just love to be able to update a 12 year old game and round it out a little more.

Since you're new to modding anything, it's best to start off with learning to crawl before you try to run a marathon. Start with making some flags and sails. If you can do this without errors then you can progress to more involved skins. Bear in mind that Pirates is not very moddable unless you know some programing and can use a hex editor to edit the .exe. Anyway, here's the thread tutorial for sails and flags.
