Question to MOD Creators

[Sethioz]

Hi modders, can anyone tell me what is the best software for making mods? i haven't done modding since early NFS days, so basically i'm completely out of the loop.

i mean making complete package, like if i want to make a mod from scratch, what software do i need?
i want to create and/or edit 3D models and all the necessary configs. i'm sure i can find this info by using search engines, but i really don't have motivation to shiv thru thousands of guides that might not even have the info i need.

what you guys/girls suggest? i'm looking for something simple, yet powerful enough to let me make 3D models and edit existing ones (like edit default vehicle and make it better).

First step is to use the editor that comes with the game. (It is not just for maps)

Look around the guides section for Mudrunner and Snowrunner for lots of tips creating mods. Its basically the same for all the games.

Blender is used for a lot of models and its free

that's quite vague answer, have you made any mods yourself? 3D model + sounds + config?
basically you saying that all you need is game's editor + blender?

Basic knowledge is vague. Read the PDF's coming with the editor. Look up the guides/tutorials.
And yes i have, mainly maps using custom height maps in Mudrunner. Newer cared about Snowrunner.

reason why i ask here, is cuz i have no motivation for looking up some guides and shiving thru what is copy-pasted nonsense vs what is written by someone who actually knows the stuff.

that's the problem with nowday internet, most guides/tutorials are just copy pasted by some "scammers" who want some quick views, so they copy stuff from other websites without even knowing what they saying. and since there's SO MANY of those copy-pasters, they always tend to show up before others.

i don't want to make maps tho, i want to make some vehicles. i made some vehicles for old NFS games very long ago, otherwise i've been only building stuff in builder games, such as brick rigs, trailmakers, space engineers, dual universe ..etc.

oh so you don't want to look up info you want people to spoon feed you.. Good luck with that.
