You know how in i think its Area 52 were those little demon skulls, and the spiders are. How did they do that? get tags from another game? or something like that?

Don't discuss such things here. Buying the program keeps it legal; which is always the best solution.

So then your kinda screwed.

1. get trial version to see if you are "up to" making maps.

2. buy the thing.

Hardly.

Rossmum used GMax to create most of his models, and his are great. Now, I admit GMax isn't the best program, but it's modeling features are almost identical to that of 3ds Max. You don't need rendering, or all that other fancy stuff to mode, albeit some modeling features not found in GMax can make it a bit tough, it's still possible. Suffice to say, GMax is a great program.
