Ok so I finally got SWGB saga, and went to heavengames to get some mods....some are good some are decent, most of the ones i want are horrible....


However I was searching their forum in hopes of finding an answer on what editors they use to make models, and make mods....and ultimately failed, there was reference to Genie Editor, but i cant find it in the utilities section



With that said, all i am trying/wanting to do, is take an existing unit in the game: In particular, the Landed Republic Assualt Ship (RAS) and make it....Scale size, and delete some of the junk around it.

On an advanced note, i want to eventually make a scale landed republic venator cruiser, and have it replace maybe a fortress...and have it be able to build units/garrison



with that said, what Free/Trial Programs can i use that will let me do this, and let me make a .mpi file....and once i do, how i can i make it work with the zaynar mod installer?



Note: People with modding experience prefered, and particularly helpful people shall recieve credits from me in game.


THanks

Try Milkshape. That's what everyone uses for the ships in Freelancer. Look up that program along with maybe a tutorial on Google.

Or Gmax but it is slightly more complex to use. I would recommend you to look at the tutorials posted/pinned in the Discovery Developers subforum.

sorry i havent posted here for a bit...


OK so i kinda sorta did what i wanted to....but i still have problems....
here is what i have managed to accomplish:

this is the first one, but its render was rather crappy thanks to photoscape(its complete SH**)
[Image: 1gnd6x.jpg]


and here is a beta of my second one...only now i am having problems...because the landing gear looks...southparkish

[Image: 2dbuhr8.jpg]



so the new questions/requests are:



1. how the can i make the vanishing point disappear using Paint Shop x2....apparently SWGB does not have vanishing points, and i am doing these betas with the very few photos available to me via Google images.


2. need some advice on texturing....in particular those horrible looking beta landing gear i did with paint.


3. 5-10 million credits to some one who can get me a Very very good quality Picture of a venator, at the same angle as the above pictures, or close....20 million if its got landing gear.

Edit: dont try to just send me a link to the one of a venator with an all black background...you will not get credit...i need photos in original condition, in 800x600 or higher....resizing existing pictures doesnt work well enough

You'd be better off using an Acclamator-class instead, Venator-class does not have landing gear.

Yeah i dont like the acclamators though...they are way to plain in texture...and i know i have seen venators taking off in the movies....anyway this has been updated:



Ok got GMAX so now i am offering 10 million ingame credits for the following:


1. A 3d model of a venator which i can import into GMAX-10 million for this
2. A 3d model of a Super Star Destroyer, again being able to use/import into GMAX-10 million
