if you could get a program's source code just by opening an exe/dll file, windows and games would get pirated like hell and you would see a lot of clones of them. mods usually work by modifying the games data files like models, textures and scripts, some games are less data driven or scripted than others, which means they will be harder to modify. if you are really good you can modify exe files without the source code, but it requires a lot more knowledge than you seem to have and isnt practical for users because they have to keep different versions of their exe file. and pirates will hate you because your mod may not work with their cracked exe :D

no company would release the game source code unless its an old and free game. i dont know who put this idea of getting the source code in your mind but hes playing with you. cracks are a sensible subject on these forums so i will just say that if you manage to mod the exe file, you should be able to crack it at the same time if you really want to build a modded and cracked exe. anyway if you want to do a mod, you should have a mod tool provided by the developer or someone in your team who has enough knowledge to understand how the game works, without the source code. that person would find your answers by looking at the game. if you dont have this kind of tool or person, i dont think you will be able to do any mod on it.
