What tool do i need to open the side.lvl file?
Also, are there any tips for modding because i'm just new to the concept :P?
You can't really open the side.lvl file, but you can make a new one.
Read this topic very carefully:

If you use a 64 bit windows version.let us know--there is an additional step that must be taken.
Phobos also has standalone side builders--he can provide links to those.
Basically, there are text files *.ODF that contain all the settings for everything. Editing them is fun. Then you compile or MUNGE them to make the new side lvl file.
okay, thank you
