Alright, to get started i need some help in finding the basic moding matieral,

This thread will concern advise and support to me and others if possible,

All i need is to find some programmes that i can use to mod/module,

Unfortunitly i don't have time to be here every day,

I'd like all the support from every one here to give me a hand on teaching me to mod and create modules for stranded 2.

I have done moduleing in the past, but thats to do with halo. im not sure halo has anything to do with moding stranded 2? lol i know,

Thank you,

Gundam.

to mod, you just need 2 tools.
one is a texteditor (the standard windows editor suffices)
then you need a modelling tool. The best you can get (as most of the community says) is milkshape, but it's not free. Perhaps you just download the demo and try it out, if it's nothing for you, you can use the anim8tor, which IS free, but i don't know if it can handle .3ds or .x
If it can't you have to search for a converter

If you want to make models for Stranded 2 you need a 3D modelling programm. I advise you to have a look at this Programm.
You can try it out and after 30 days you can buy it, if you like the programm. Here you find some tutorials which will help you to understand how to work with Milkshape 3D.
I hope I helped you.

Edit: Too late but I gave him the links .

Thank you.

i really need help. I downloaded Anmi8or and i am kindagood with it. But when i save it as a anim8or file and export it as .3ds or .x with Blender, i config stranded II folder everything i need, but when i play... example : my made Thing is a small, really small cube on the sand or grass or snow... If i want to create it(combine) it doesnt work. Well the combine thingy i dont care(i will fix it myself, but u can help to ) , but the small cube is annoying. The same is with buildings. I downloaded some mods and saw that the new models are in .b3d file format. My blender(i have Python...)doesnt export(doesnt have the comand) .b3d . I serched on google ,but that was a failure. So i really need help! (The same is with buildings... Small cubes)

google milkshape 3d, download it, install it, then run the program, click import (.3ds) you can work on your model you made with anim8tor then when you are finished click export (.b3d) you then should be able to use that model in stranded.

(make sure you click on the trial option when you install it!)


Good luck!

Free small program named Biturn can convert b3d to 3ds
You have to make the models bigger (scale them) and then export to 3ds.
