Pirate, pirate, pirate!

Okay, maybe not.

I'd suggest finding something that really interests you and is important on a mod team, and that you can get into without much problems, and go for the gold!

Of course, I have no modding experience, but I hope that helps :)

If you find Milkshape3D confusing, then your going to have a hard time working with any other modelling programs due to the fact that they are all ALOT more confusing than Milkshape. Milkshape is renowned for its simplistic interface.

Done that don't cost in someway or another. :carefree: Milkshape is pretty robust for its price, save up for it and you'll learn to love it.
