Use tuts.You can edit stuff in there.Liek models.Then rebuild the map with new stuff.Follow the perfect model injection tuts in the HMT section

"tuts" are tutorials. You can use this one (it's prety detailed, but not confusing), as an example, http://free.phpbb-host.org/phpbb/viewtopic.php?t=75. You can really do a lot with map rebuilding.

thanks for the link but what is the tutorial?

also, for the actual modding, could i use CAD? that seems like a program that would work and i already know how to use it.

When I use to mod the main things I used were HMT, and Spark Edit.

I would suggest working on those for awhile.

what programs do what function though. like do you use hmt for actually making (for instance) a banshee skin? what programs did you use to do what function?

maybe i can simplify the problem. i can open everything in lightray but i don't know how to do anything to it. it seems like i have tried everything but obviously not. it would be sooooo much easier and i think it would solve the problem if someone would give me the plugin for paint.

HMT does so many things that they couldn't be listed (well, they could but the list would be really long), hht swaps dependencies (that means it changes the stuff that things rely on. eg. with it, you can change it so that the hogs in bloodgulch have a fire effect when they move on the ground), Sparkedit is basically just for placing things within the map, and adding teleporters (note that most new people think that the teleporters aren't there because they don't see the portal, but they're there). As for making skins, you prety much NEED photoshop, or, I'm not sure on this, there might be another program that you could use that is in the utilities section of the files forum.
