www.turbosquid.com/gmax - This site gives you a serial number so you can license the product. I guess they took ownership of gmax when Autodesk stopped supporting it.

And yes, Blender's interface is quite ugly for my taste. The guy who said it didn't work well with the older engines, he was an ...

It's alright. It's just that my PC is kind of old, and these commercial products are quite bloated, and use up a lot of memory. The free versions of software are more optimized, and if I try it out and don't like it, I can easily uninstall it without any problems.

What?

Good work. Nice signature.

Zylyx_ thanks for that. Very thorough list of the software available for use. Now I'm not sure if this forum supports illegal versions of this type of software, but I'm not really worried about that since I use the free programs in that list. If you're considering pirating, I would just use the free ...

worldcraft IS hammer.... hammer is just the new name for it for the newer versions, open the program you will see that they are the same.

I know that they are the same, I have played Quake 1 AND Half-Life 1 since day 1. I noticed that they were very similar.

I heard that Blender is not that good for modeling on old engines such as Quake and Half-Life 1, that's why I didn't put it there.

What is the best modeling program? I heard that Milkshape 3d was the best. Any suggestions?

I voted for your mod, because the potential for this seems big. The Quake engine still is strong, you just need to use it correctly. But, I think that gameplay will also dominate over shiny graphics, anyday.

Anyways, make sure you put the link to everything when you're done, I would like to try it ...

I'm interested in learning Quake modding.
