I seem to enjoy messing around with my inizh file, and i feel like making some of my own units. Before you say, no i just dont want to download a mod. I really want to make them myself. My biggest problem is i want to be able to render my own units and such. Any tutorials or programs out here to help?

Programs: RenX, 3D studio max, there ither but i dont know them.
Tutorials: I have no clue.

If you use a mac you can use lightwave (school uses macs lol)

The main program you'll be needing is a 3D modelling program called GMax in which can be downloaded from here:

Since the SAGE uses the Westwood 3D (.W3D) file formats for their models, you'll require the RenX plugin. This plugin is bundled with the Renegade Tools Pack which can be downlaoded from here:
ftp://ftp.westwood.com/pub/renegade/tools/RenegadeToolsInstaller2.exe 

To extract files from the game's compressed files, you'll require a .BIG extracted. A commonly used one known as "FinalBIG" can be downloaded from here:

A good tutorial site in which I would recommend for beginner modellers for C&C Generals would be Killasmod which can be accessed from here:
