Hey guys.
i and a friend are planning to make a sauerbraten mod.
he is the programmer, i can model quite well. but im not very used to blender, because im using anim8or...;)
so i cant really follow the tutorials.
it would be really cool if some people could help rigging and skinning, maybe texturing. ill make the models, dont worry. if you want, ill post a zombie i made some weeks ago. oh, its a game about zombies...:D if you are interested, send me an email to maximilian.straub@arcor.de
or just reply to this topic.

Blender supports uv textur painting and projection painting, so its quied intuitiv to make model textures.

And if you try blender, use the 2.49 version. Not one of the 2.5x Versions. The 2.5x does have better uv painting but dosn't support the export scripts and you cant open 2.5x blender files with older blender versions.

And be award that blenders uv painting is not perfect and still has some minor problems! For example There are seems that you somehow cant paint on in the 3d view. I still try to get my head around this problems.

If you start a mod, I would consider using CubeCreate for it:
http://www.cubecreate.com
Which, to put it very simply is a more mod friendly fork of Sauerbraten.

P.S.: Don't follow the advise to use Blender 2.49.
2.5 is much better and easier to use. And for Cube2 editing all you need are working IQM exporters, which are available for Blender 2.5:

I didnt know! :D
In that case I strongly agree. It's best to go with the 2.5 version of blender.

well, ok.... but at some parts i cant follow the tutorial.
a bit help would be nice :D
oh, the main idea is:
you are soldier and somewhere in the world. then you see an asteroid, crashing the earth. and you must find another base, where they can help you. but everywhere are zombies because of the radiation....
thats al :D
well, as i said, a bit help would be really cool!
and i dont like blender :)

I actually really like Anim8or, it's nice and clean. I wish it and Cube were more compatible.
