Xi yes I advise you to read the beginner's guides.P.s In time everything will work out. Because even experienced modders were newbies too)
Everything will work out

Yes, you have to use IDA.
In the tutorial section you will find some for IDA modding.
Hey @Yaskashije , I had succes, but in a few games really all functions are called "sub_xxx", is there a way to get the function names or is it a kind of obfuscation?

All functions in a lib are called sub_xx because they are subroutines. If they have some string that is their "name", it means that subroutine has a symbol.
If you check a libil2cpp, all functions are sub_xx. Why? Because il2cpp has symbols stripped.
Devs can also strip symbols in the native. Depending on the game, they may be recoverable or not.

And if it is not recoverable, the game is still unmoddable? like Obfuscation on dll?

Depnds; mabe or maybe not. I'm aware there games with symbols stripped for which mod exists (like Candy Crush Saga).
And yes, similar approach as when you have obfuscated il2cpp.

Ohh, thanks for this.
Because 9/10 games i tried to mod which are not dll based have only sub-xxx names...
