can som1 find me a start to finish guide of how to make a simple model and put it into hammer as a entriy. pls make sure everything is free (exept hammer because i have that) i was just a bit confuzzled about how to make a model that can go into hammer. or if any1 feels like it they could make a start to finish one themselfs.
You should try Softimage|XSI: http://www.softimage.com/community/xsi_mod_tool/Default.aspx As for putting it into hammer, you'll need to know how to make the model: http://developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/Category:Modeling Then you'll need to create a prop_static entity(unless the model is designed as a physics object, you'll need to use prop_physics for that, there are more entities for models but those are the most common), set the model, make sure the level is sealed and set up the map, then compile.
Havent watched xsi specific video tutorials but 3ds max ones were very helpful so check out this: http://www.iwannamap.com/tutmodels.php
