Hey thanks all, I'm working on some non-modding stuff right now. But modding seems really cool. What do you all use for mods and render and such? Keep in mind I'm quite new to it all and have limited abilities right now.

most important piece of kit (assuming your talking freespace 2) is vpviewer cant remember where you get it - want to amke models truespace makes for the easiest conversion but its possible with max and afew others - a graphic program like photoshop or psp7 would be a good tool to have too

Lightwave, TrueSpace, 3DS Max are the most commonly used... TrueSpace is required for modding however. If you ask around you will find some tutorials and stuff.

also take time to learn about mapping techniques and good polygon modelling.
If you follow a few tutorials and get the hang of them you can avoid quite a lot of headaches.

keep in mind: modding is excrutiatingly difficult and might take several months to learn. it requires a commitment.
