Offer: Learn to mod

[Snake]

Since the SWBF community is continuing to get smaller, I find that it's a lot funner to stick around when you know how to mod. I rarely play SWBF but I am active in the community because I love modding. Since I am now winding down my career, I wanted to offer if anyone would like to learn how to mod and/or map. I learned stuff like mission.lvl modding but I find that regular modding and mapping is much more fun. I'm not restarting my academy because that was just too much work, but if anyone wants to learn, I will be their question answerer and pointer to the right tools-er. If you would like to learn just post and make sure you add me as a friend on xfire.

I had always wanted to learn modding when I played SWBF but no one would ever take the time to teach me. Finally, Jango taught me a few basic things and I taught myself most of what I know today. (SWBFgamers taught me a LOT too.) So since no one wanted to teach me when I was a newbie at modding, I'm not returning the favor.

I will require you to read some tutorials, but I'm not going to teach you by saying "read this" but I will point you to tutorials for basic things.

I would like to know how to mod better. I think I've got most of the basics down, I've modded bes.lvl, side.lvls, shell.lvl, and common.lvl. I still have trouble with crosshair modding and modding simple things because I don't know where they are located(color of shots). also I have alot of trouble with core.lvl modding. and I still can't figure out how to mod stock maps with bfbuilder (I'm used to Phobos bes.lvl builder). oh and wookie hands...wookie hands >.< . I already got you on xfire so hopefully I'll catch you on.

Next summer I may get a new PC, could you give me a tutorial then? I don't have xfire nor do I want it, FB instead?

I'm talking about making side mods and maps. None of the .lvl editing stuff. I learned to do all that a while ago but I found it so annoying that I quit doing it.

Sure, if I'm still around. I don't have a Facebook, but we can just PM here or you can post on my webs thing.

I'm working on uploading some mod tools that I put together so as soon as that is up, download that.

I would love to take this offer up but I've never been able to use mod tools due to the "Battlefront must be installed" stuff.

I've tried fixing it numerous times but it just never worked for me.

I know how to mod most things, but I would greatly appreciate it if you could guide me step-by-step through downloading BFBuilder, Zero Editor, and the other things I will need to make maps. I have downloaded everything a few times but could never get it working, so I've just deleted it...

And I would like some help with ODF editing and skinning tips so I can get better.

oh and wookie hands...wookie hands >.<
