After denzquix mentioned modding Normality it got me excited about doing mods again.
I used to do texture swaps and edit levels in Doom2 (using good old wintex)

i think my favourite was when i took the weapons from hexen/heretic and put them in as medieval/fantasy versions of the weapons in doom heh.

I want to compile a list of cool games to mod, or even just want to mod (then figure the rest out later)

Doom engine (free with shareware wad)
Half Life + similar
Source games
Aquaria
Quake (quakeC, quark)
Duke3d
Minecraft
Spelunky
Total Annihilation
Bethesda Games

also, ROM hacking!

Games with external graphics + levels are good ones. Some game maker games do this?

I used to make Duke Nukem 3D maps... they were terrible but I had fun.

Yeah there are a few gamemaker games I know of that let you swap out SOME graphics but not not nearly enough to do in true 'mod'. Though I have not been paying close attention to Gamemaker games as of late and my knowledge is about 6-7 years old.
