hey stealthy.....my completely uneducated answer is that maybe u could just use an existing sign such as a billboard, and reskin it....?

**rappo** · 11-11-2003

well... that completely uneducated answer is a pretty good and logical one!

well, here's another way to do it...

you get zmodeler and model your own little sign (so you can make the size whatever you want, and customize it to your liking). Then, you need to make the .txd files to correspond with the .dff file... you can use txd workshop or txd builder to do that. then, you must use moo mapper to plot the sign in a specific place (most likely in front of your park), and you'll have to create the ide and ipl and all that good stuff. But, assuming you made the stunt park yourself, making your own sign shouldn't be a problem!

well yaim not realy good at zmodler i dont know how to my my own sighn

**rappo** · 11-11-2003

wait a second... lemme get this one straight...

so, you made a "boat stunt park" (somehow in someway) yet you can't model a sign? hmmmm.... did you use existing parts for this stunt park? if so, then that explains it!

but, if you really don't know how to model... get moo mapper, find an existing billboard, copy it, then plot it in front of your stunt park (or wherever you want). Change the names of the .dff and the .txd so it wont be the same, and make your textures!

**rappo** · 11-11-2003

alrighty... good luck!

oh and by the way... I CAN'T MODEL EITHER

if any one knows how to use zmodler please tell me in this post or wright it up on note pad or somthing and send it to gtagaming so they can host it in the mod tools thing and then every one will be happy

you mean moo mapper

use that for map editing. once you find the right stuff, you should know how to texture it and everything. if you read the readmes and documentation, you should have no problem. but the most important part of modding is experience. the more you do the better you are. so just keep trying. youll eventually get it, unless you are a mentally handicapped or retarded person. but those people shouldnt even be here right now...
