I wan´t to start modeling cars and tracks which programs should you recomend? (for both cars and tracks) I want to have all necesary programs, for example: 3d program for both tracks and cars(maybe the same) and other programs that you really need so i don´t have to ask again becouse I missed some. :)

Please tell me! :)

A good idea would be 3DS Max as your modeling program. You'd also need the RVTMOD7 pack to convert everything to ReVolt.

There is also wscale for tracks and you will need hulscale to adjust your car's .hul.

You might also like to dld trackmk - this takes the top of the editor bridge tile and allows you to twist, stretch, shrink and turn it to almost any shape - this prog is by srmalloy (as are the 2 above) and his demonstration track of this is 'Synthesis'.

For textures, I use Pstudio, which is a fairly basic prog - I would suggest, however, looking for GIMP, which is free, and is claimed to be as powerful as any professional graphics prog.

Car and Track modeling : 3DS Max
Car and Track texturing : Microsoft Paint (Paint)
Car and Track converting: RVTMOD7
Car and Track testing : Re-Volt

Is that enough for you? How many people have to explain it? Later,
Zach

Also, learn to use the Revolt MAKEITGOOD edit modes.
rvGlue program found in RVTMOD7.
A graphics program like Paint Shop Pro.
Anyone know of a good free graphics program?

Good is a matter of a heated opinion regarding this program, but it's often cited as a free alternative to photoshop:
