A little help pleace???
« on: February 11, 2011, 03:34:36 pm »
Im tired of being useless! So i thought of (trying) to learn modelling! I know about the wings 3D (although im quite poor using it) So what i am asking is if anyone knows a good free texture editing program??? I know i should first try to learn to use the Wings 3D properly but it would still be nice to know how to make textures for models made with it! Any ideas???

Gimp for 2d image editing

I might recommend Blender for 3d modelling instead of Wings3D. It's free and open source, very powerful and a has a large community for tutorials/forums/help.

Also, there's always UFORadiant for making maps, which is arguably easier to learn than 3d modelling software.

I don't know wings3d, but you should be able to make a render of your creation to show us. You can probably also export it into some sort of format that most 3d programs can read, such as .obj.

If you're not sure, you'll probably find more help at the wings3d website.
