Recommended Programs

[RiotZ]

Harro thar! I wanted to start modeling a little while back, so I could better support my own projects. But my problem is I'm a bit on the lazy side and I don't care to use a program like Milkshape which I have to export and import and covert models. I want to use a model editor which I can use to make scratch models without the long processes that would slow me down.

I already have these model editors:
Magos Model Editor
MDLVIS Model Editor
Oinkerwinkles Vertex Editor

I have also few MDX - MDL converters.

What should I really be using, even if it does require converting models.

The exporting is the smallest effort when using Modelling programs like Milkshape and 3ds max.

I use Milkshape and exporting takes less then 5 minutes.

This. This. And...This.

Well I guess I better learn to use Milkshape then. I'm a bit impatient to take so much time making these models. xD

That's a lot of time :O

In max I'm done with few seconds (not counting assigning correct texture paths)

I included everything. With textures and fixing looping animations etc. two sided materials.

xRiotZx, you do realize proper modeling can take you months to learn, and weeks to finish a single model in some cases? If you're impatient, better just learn to model-edit first.

Indeed, indeed. I know how long the process takes. But I do have some major prior experience with 'Blender' that may benefit me the luxury of not wasting the first month.

Thank you for all the comments, from all of the heavy modelers.
