Portal 2: How to make a Model?

Posted Oct 24, 2014
I am making a very large Portal 2 Map, And i want to have custom models inside it, I am aware of Pakrat. But i need help actually creating the models. I can compile a .SMD Into a .MDL I need to know what software to use. I have Blender and Maya 2015. Any others?

I don't care how much the software may cost i just need something to create the Models. :thumbup:

anything that can make models can be used.
if it has a plugin to export to smd that'd be the best
As for some software you might want to consider:

  • Blender
  • Google Sketchup
  • Maya*
  • 3ds max*
  • Softimage Mod Tool

just to name a few.

Any of them will do, and which one you use is totally up to personal preference.

You should try to find some Blender tutorials.
