Im plannning to make a mod for Half life, a fully immersive single player episode, i currently have all my ideas down on paper. The programs i have got are as follows: 3D S MAX 3.0 and 4.0 Photoshop Worldcraft Soundforge Flash 5 1. Are these good enouight to make a mod? 2. Are there any other programs that are recommended? 3. Can you please guide me on how i can use teh half life game engine to create teh game? 4. Can you tell me in depth, or tell me about an in depth tutorial that will help me create modles, skin them, and also level making etc etc 6. How do i create my own scripted events? 7. What do i do to make the mod usable and compiled together? Tahnsk for any help given. OWH

You''ll need character studio for 3D studio max if I remember rightly, either you need it or it helps, best place to start is http://www.planethalflife.com/half-life/files/ and get the SDK so you can get modding and then go here http://www.planethalflife.com/half-life/files/ for links to sites on halflife coding, mapping and modeling. You probably wont be able to make the mod by yourself but if you learn how to make basic modifications to the halflife game then you can advertise for others to join you in making your mod, good luck!
