[?] Where to start?

Helloooo PR modders. As my title suggests... where do I start modding? I know about the BF2 editor but I don't know where to get it. I really am intrested in this and I can't seem to find a recent thread on it. Some guys have been saying they wanted updated MEC kits (i.e uniforms, a possible dufflebag fix) and I'd love to start with making animations and 3d models for that.

As for where to get the BF2 editor, 2 links at the top of this tut list: https://www.realitymod.com/forum/f189-m ... rs-up.html

Within the Modding forum, there are two sub-forums: Modding Tutorials and Community Maps. Check the tutorials sub-forum for a huge list of tutorials. The most common ones are stickied at the top, but do a search if you can't find the one you're looking for.

Good luck and let us know if you have any problems that the tutorials don't seem to answer.

a good place to start is the community factions, we always need modellers

I was thinking on working PMC stuff but I wanted to try modifying MEC uniforms as practice. Which modeling program would you suggest?

no need to worry about the mec kits...

Is that some cryptic way of saying you have somehting planned for them? I just wanted to practice changing their uniforms, kits were the first thing that came to mind when describing it.

Thanks for the info. I saw the name 3ds max 9 thrown around but I didn't know what it was exactly and at least I have experience with photoshop. My xfire is xxbiirdzxx btw.

Sorry for the hiatus. Finals came upon our school. But this summer I will be able to work on modding. I familiarized myself with the engine and made a map that I tried out on a hamachi server. Pock I don't know the situation with xfire and I don't really use it much but we can smooth that out.
