i would like to start designing or creating "something" that i can play. i have the half-life software developer kit from the computer gaming world disk a few months back, which includes worldcraft... and i have the red faction game editor and i think there is something on my nolf disk. anyway, what would be the easiest way for me to learn to create something. the red faction editor seems complicated, there are no instructions that i can see...
Pick one game, then go to a experienced game modders websight. Join their forums and get tips there. Join a mod-team to get some more experience. Some of the sights have classifieds looking for people. Your more likely to get on a team if you excel at one or two things. Eventually you'll learn the ins and outs of modding and you'll probably will get a better understanding of what it takes to make a mod.
