As I improve my modding skills, I've gone from editing the basic text files, to using idx extractors/editors, and finally to graphic editing.

To go any further from here in making a new unit, would require me to learn 3d editing. However, all up to now I have been using free utilities, and 3dmax is an expensive piece of software. Are there any free 3d modelling tools/animation creating tools?


Btw, screenshot of how far I've gotten :D

Notice:
retextured RED druid-"fire mage"
new unit card (and also not shown but matching unit info pic as well)
fireballs coming out of the "fire mage"-not just one!
units being thrown everywhere due to the mage's force field attack
invincibility! This is a battle between 1 fire mage and 420 urban cohorts :O (no console cheats involved)





Right now, I'm trying to see if I can change the fireball into a blue flame and make an "ice mage."
