Decorate tutorials for custom weapons

hello doomworld, I really want to get into making custom guns and new enemys but i cant quite get down how to use decorate. Ive looked at tutorials on doom wikis and stuff of that sort but it doesnt really click. are there any video tutorials ive only seen one why cant some of these awesome modders help a guy out and make some video tutorials! :)

I've never understood why someone would want a video tutorial for something like coding, over a written one. But maybe that's just me.

Just to check, have you looked at http://gunlabs.blogspot.ca/2011/01/tutorial-how-to-make-your-first-basic.html ? It is very thorough and step-by-step. If you can't follow with that, post as to where you get lost, or give an example of something simple you want to do.

Thanks, yeah maybe i am wierd about video tutorials i think i just like somebody talking it to me and watching every step they do.

one thing I found to really help me when I was first learning decorate was to write down everything on paper in a flow chart sort of thing, in plain English. ie "presses fire" -> "does player have x?" which then branches of two different ways, etc etc
