I would like to start trying to mod RA2. However, I don't have the big $$$$ for 3Dsmax. Does someone know of a free program that can be used to make components for RA2. A tutorial would be nice, too. :lol:

use notepad

3D studio max 4.2-5.1 are the ONLY versions that work with RA2

So, 7.0 won't work? I found a download for it that is free. But still... It won't work? It isn't backwards/forward (can't remember which) compatible? Dang. :evil:

What features they then have which for example blender doesn't?

(Blender is free.)

havoc plugin. gaberial plugin. Thats what everything else is missing.

I don't want to get into why 3dsmax is a better modeler.. it just is.

Blender is also more confusing to use. compared to studio max, the blenders options are in chinese

Nice bump. After all of my research, I've found that there are no other RA2 compatible 3d modelers.
