is the information from that threas conducive to JK, and not knowing how to even get started??? What do you suggest Whiluf??....thanks for the help, i really apreciate it

The information in that thread is for Radiant, the Quake3 technology editor. It lists tutorials and FAQs for Q3 tech, which will be used for Jedi Outcast. There are a number of introductory tutorials that should help, if you want to get started with editing for Jedi Outcast (not Jedi Knight).

What are some of the tools I should start out with if I wanted to get into JK stuff, before JKO comes out??? What do you reccomend? Like I said, I'm very software literate, but when it comes to games and graphics tools, etc........i have no clue...so where should i start?? Thanks for the help..

Well, if you want to make JK stuff first, go to http://www.massassi.net

 

Anyway, I have to warn you about this: editing for JK is very different from what will be editing for JO/Quake/Elite Force.

The only thing in common they have is that both are in 3D

 

My opinion is that if you want to know what feels to edit, try Quake 2 or 3, they're easier to start with.

Of course, it's just my opinion, do whatever pleases you most. Hey, what the heck! Try both !!!

Good luck with your editing!
