Low tech Guy Looking for Ambitious HW2 Modder to create a Super Carrier for HW2. Looking for some one to Create a 1 of a kind personal design. My Carrier.I wish to discuss and colaborate on Designs and Weaponry.Although I do have questions. Can a Mod Be Made on a Disk then down loaded in My Alien Ware?Is it possible to put 3 Versions of HW2 in 1 system? Can an Idea be completed in a REASONABLE amount of time say 2 months Per Ship? Of course Some matters are left to be Discussed Through Correspondence (RU's). Thank you BLM766@AOL.COM

Nobody is going to spend 2 months of their time working on a ship for you. There are planty of "idea guys" and not very many quality modelers and texturers arround, I suggest you try out some of the free tools available on the internet and make that supercarrier for yourself.
Saying you're a low-tech guy doesn't cut it. You know how to use a computer to access the internet. That means you can download 3d software and 2d texturing programs, there are thousands of turotials on the web if you just enter a search for them.

A google search brings up hundreds of tutorials.
The best time to start to learn how to do something is now.
I'm not trying to be harsh, but I see these posts and I know people are intimidated the first time they see a 3d program, but you just have to jump in. At first it's a thrill when you learn how to extrude a shape, then you learn mroe and more and more etc. I'm a 3d nut, and I've been doing it for closet to 15 years (back in the days of DOS 3d Studio, when raytracing was a days long proposition). I want people to learn, not have others do it for them. I'm not trying to coddle anyone, but I'm going to explain it in real terms. You want a mod, do it yourself. Nobody is going to do a mod for you because it's a crapload of work. I've been working on a mod now for 5 weeks where I work at least 4 hours a day on the things, and on weekends I put in up to 10-12 hours a DAY, I'm putting in more time with the mod than I am with my regular job. (BTW it's gonn kick @$$ and it's something nobody is expecting, but it's a different engine)
All I'm trying to say is that a book remains unread until you have turned the first page.
