Title: [Tutorial] Modifying vehicles in ZModeler
Post by: Rubber on August 31, 2012, 04:48
Hello boys/girls/men/ladies/robots/cyborgs. This is my modding tutorial for ZModeler. There are 3 episodes done so far (the third episode is broken up into 4 parts). This took me quite a while to make, so I hope at least one of you finds it useful. Please ask questions and give suggestions if you would like. Or maybe like the video on youtube  ;D . About the recording: I used camstudio. It recorded the video fine, but the playback was faster than the actual recording. So for example, the first video took me about 6 minutes to record, yet the playback length is only 4:55. This causes things to be sped up a bit, so you may need to pause the video to read things....sorry.


Episode 1 focuses on the basics of ZModeler operation. Skip this video if you are already fluent with ZMod.



Episode 2 shows how to import mods.


Episode 3, part 1 deals with creating objects.


Episode 3, part 2 deals with making and integrating objects into your mod.


Episode 3, part 3 deals with completing some more objects.


Episode 3, part 4 deals with texturing the final mod.


CURRENTLY UPLOADING MORE EPISODES


Thanks for watching!

Oh, and the mod created in the tutorial videos is available below.

Yeah, I was hoping for voice too, not that I wanted to listen to it for pleasure, but I find it easier to follow with voice :P

You can either pay the big $ and buy the full version or find a download (illegal) somewhere. I'm not going to post the link because it is illegal. I am not suggesting that you download the illegal version...but it's an option  ;D

I do remember you saying that only the full version allows models to be imported.. am I right on this.. so the only way, if correct, to modify vehicles would be to get the full version no matter which way you go forth about getting it??

I think with the demo version you can import mods, but cannot export them...so it is kinda pointless. The only way to follow the tutorial I posted is to get the full version one way or another.

Also, if an admin could sticky this topic, that would be cool. I think people will find this helpful eventually.

If anyone has ideas for future episodes, let me know. I still have more episodes to upload but I'm having problems with file conversion so it might take some time.

Why don't you just talk? It would be way faster and better for all.

If you read the description above, you will see why I don't talk....I recorded this in a public place (it was usually at 2am and people were trying to sleep...)
