the majical program that reads you mind and determines what you would consider cool then generates it, UVmaps it and makes perfict textures for it all in half a second, it's made by Oberon king of the faries and is available for the limmeted time offer of just 1.25 human soles, it's what I use, I think Venom has a copy of it too.
if you haven't realised it yet that was a joke,
a bad one,
but a joke none the less,
the point of wich was that there are no modding tools that are easy to learn/master/use and in some cases get ahold of, but if you want to make new models for freespace you will need Truespace4.2 or higher, lithunwrap, PCS, and Paint Shop Pro/Photoshop in addition to the basic modding tools in the Dnet fs pack. I'm too lazy to get links to all these things but this is more than you probly had before I graced this thread with my devine presince and God like spelling.
