Book Description

Rather than starting from scratch, would-be game developers can take advantage of freely available 3D game engines so that they can focus on the fun part-creating the game-rather than first creating the technology necessary to create the game. Mods alter the way a game is played, whether it means adding a new weapon, adding a whole new level to play, or even changing the rules of the game. This book contains step-by-step instruction for those interested in using id Software's Quake game engine to create modifications to the game. Covers installing the editor, thinking up an initial mod, making.
