For modelling guns/characters:
Kinetix 3DStudio Max release 4 (version 3 also works)
RSE export plugins for 3DSMAX

For texture/graphics work:
Adobe Photoshop version 5 or 6, I have 7 but haven't tried it yet.
RSE plugins fo photoshop

For Hex editing, and changing texture assignments without re-modelling:
Kahei HEX editor, no longer available, but any HEX editor will work.

For text editing:
Windows notepad. I have never used IGOR to create any of the stuff I've done, I guess it's an old habit from Rogue Spear. ???

Alright! Thank you guys.......
But after I do  the model, how I will know taht the character will hold the weapon exactly on the grip? Should I do anything else to "guide" the character on where he will hold?

Thank you again! I only do mods for RS, and now I'm learning on how to do models for UO and GR at all....

You'll have to use trial and error to get the positioning correct. That's the way I did it, lol back in the day... :D

For RS you need version 3, there are no RogueSpear plugins for version 4 of 3dstudio max. And yes, you have to use trial and error to place the guns. Once you find the right position, save the model before export and use it as a guide to line up the rest of the models you make.

 Alright!
 What do you mean with "Trial and Error"?
 Ok, I'll try to "guide" me with the MAX files UO brings featured, as the Ak47 and USP, and so on... :o This should help me with positioning the weapon correctly...
 I'll try to get version 2.5 or 3.0 of 3D Max

 See ya!!  ::)
