I'm trying to make a total conversion mod for half life 2. Are there any programs, websites, or tutorials where I can learn more about texturing, mapping, making models, etc. Please note that I am EXTREMELY new to modifying the Source engine. Hammer confuses me, I can't understand lua (or whatever language it is in). I just need something that gives me the basics. Any hints? Thanks to anyone who posts on this thread. I hope everything will be easy once I learn more about texturing, mapping, and making models.
