Initial Setup

Mod Kit Installation
The first step to modding MW5 is downloading and installing the MW5 Modding Toolkit (also known as the MW5 editor). Currently the MW5 editor is only available through the Epic Games Store. However, you are not required to own a copy of MW5 through the EGS in order to start the download. This is a rather large download, around 90GBs, so make sure you have enough space. It's also advisable to give your self enough room to store your various modding projects as the editor will keep an uncompiled copy of all your assets in the same location that it is installed to. If you can try to install on an SSD as this will help decrease load times.

First Steps
You have the modkit installed and now it's time to open the editor. Click on that lovely icon in the EGS and... then go get your preferred work beverage. The initial start-up of the editor can take quite a while depending on system specs. Once the Editor launches you should see something like this (insert image).
