Where do I start? [DON'T PUT THINGS INTO PAK FILES YOU DIDN'T MAKE YOURSELF!]

Somebody spends too much time working in a bakery methinks....

Saw the making of sour dough on discovery channel.

There's a walk-through bakery tour that I took one time.  Sourdough bread bakery.  Which is why I know.

VSMIT.

Ditto.  From that show it seems that most 'real' sourdough (from walk-in places, not bags) have been using the same mother-dough for almost 100 years...  Quite interesting.

To make sourdough bread, you have to start with a lump of it, called "mother dough."  Otherwise it won't work right.

I knew that, I just hadn't heard the analogy before.

Ah, that explains the green bits!

Hmm... a help topic in a BZII forum has just become all about bread....

[bigbadbogie]

That just proves the unique kind of insanity of all bz2ers.

[AHadley]

I'll second that!

[CivBase]

Okay, so the text modding seems almost self explanitory at this point... what about modeling?  What if I want to create a brand new unit or edit one?  How can I do that?

[VSMIT]

Do you have access to any 3D modeling programs?  Those are (obviously) essential to building new units, unless you have a mind brilliant enough to build something in Notepad.

VSMIT.

[CivBase]

You mean like blender or something? No, and I'm not that smart or paitent (sp) enough to use notepad.  Where can I get one?

[bigbadbogie]

Imagine trying to build a full unit in notepad from raw numbers. That would be QUAZY!!!

[Warfreak]

I've made a cube in 3DS Max out of hand-made vertexes (36 if i recall correctly) All moved along the grid by hand. Thats as close as i get to THAT insanity.
