How do you make mods?

[Jmaster3265]

Ok, well everyone talks about how you can make mods how? How can you make a mod that fits in the game with the same graphics? Is it a type of program?

Right now modders are basically creating models for their mods using various 3-D modelling software. When EaW comes out they will take these models and change them to a format that will work with the game. I'm not sure exaclty what 3-D modelling software is the best, but I believe Adobe makes one? Im not real sure.

First of all: It takes intelligence, which you lack!

I won't even go on...

You asked a question very similar to this before, look back to that thread.

I was just joking. Do you think I have much intelligence? I can't really insult people who are smarter than me: Everyone!

Yeah, but this is asking what software to use, and how you make them etc. that was asking what is a mod...there is a difference..

You can use Notepad to work on game code.

You can simply place new files in the directories for the game.

You can use programs like maya or Blender to create 3-d models.

That was explained on the thread I believe also. But TSKNF has recommended software listed.

on of the programs that was said was caled Lua

i think it was mentond in the chat.

[Guest JediIgor]

They're using Lua for the scripting and XML to store the data. There really isn't an editor, an SDK, or any documentation out yet, so the most you can do is plan and prepare media.

The Legacy of War Mod uses a program called 3ds.

 

Don't forget about the Legacy update next week!!
