Start with http://soase.weebly.com/sins-mod-set.html which is the Sins modding PDF converted to html and should cover the basics. Go over that and post back any questions.

Edit: Make sure the folder name is GameInfo not game info or gameinfo. Mosty only entity files in GameInfo. Look at the directory structure of the Reference Files.
