What tools/programs used for unit/building/effects do you use?

from Sins Forums
Hi guys, getting kinda board lately, and just thinking about starting to mod out, which programs do you guys use to make buildings/units and effects?

Also, is there any basic tutorials on how to make buildings/units etc?


Cheers.

Each person uses what ever program they feel comfortable with. Some, like me, use 3DS Max, others use XSI and some that i know use Milkshape 3D which is free, as is XSI.

For texturing its whatever the person feels most comfortable using

XSI mod tool is free. XSI definitely isn't. ;)

I myself use XSI and Photoshop for textures. Notepad for editing of various files, except particles for which we have the official tool.

I personally use 3dsmax for modeling then convert the models to xsi for import. I also use Photoshop for creating textures.
