   Big Newb, I Need Lots of Help
  Ive Been Playing This Game (Lineage 2) For Along time now, And I Started thinking About Editing The Game By Makeing New Monsters And what notIm Along Ways From doing this, But Im Stuck On somethingI Downloaded The Unreal Engine 2 (The game is originaly made on that i guess)And i downloaded 3ds max 8Now Heres My Problem:  Say I made a Simple Box In this program, How To I Put an Image Around this Box?Ive Been Trying to do this for 2 days now >.<   
  Two things.1. You won't be able to get the source code for Lineage 2 to edit it. I'm not sure quite how many laws that would break, and how difficult it would be.2. I doubt that Lineage 2 uses the Unreal Engine, it's mainly for fps's.3. It's quite illegal to download a $100,000+ commercial game engine....where you would download it I wouldn't even know...4. You'd have to know c++, as this is the language [Lineage 2] is likely based on.In otherwords....you're out of luck.;  "And i downloaded 3ds max 8"I hope I'm wrong, but it seems that this is an illegal acquired copy of 3DS, otherwise, why would you download it? If so, your ARE:1) Really stupid for asking help on a forum in which professional artists/programmers help people for free who by the way have to BUY that kind of software to actually acquire the knowledge to help you.2) An imbecile for disrespecting other peoples property, how would you feel if someone would steel your pc and software you have at home, wouldn't be happy about it now would you.My apologies to the other forumers, but, these kind of people just piss me off.;  @GSmaster - Alot of that is incorrect.1. This is correct.2. It does use the Unreal Engine.3. He might have downloaded the map editor for Unreal Tournament or Unreal 2. Other than that, yes, this is correct.4. Since he doesn't have the source code, it doesn't matter wich language it was written in.But yes, you are out of luck. Its an MMO, not a signle player game. If you want to mod a game, chose a single player game that has modding tools(like Unreal Tournament, Half Life, and many other modern games). Its much easier, and is certainly legal. If you just want to replace models in Lineage 2 with your own custom ones, then that would be doable(legally, too, I think). So you're going to have to tell us exactly what you downloaded, as both 3DS Max and Unreal 2 cost a bucket load.@JOBe - I think he's misinformed, not doing something illegal. The trial version prehaps(if there is one)?   ;  That could be true Ezbez as there is a Trial version, if that's what he's referring to, then I'll apologies.If not, then he is what I said he is!   ;  Can you download unreal map editor? I thought it only came with Ut2004.But..... he actually said "Unreal 2", so.....There's no trial version for that =D   ;  Yeah, actually here is the download. There are different versions for each game, though, and no Lineage 2 one, not surprisingly.   ;  hmph...theres a way with out doing it all without getting source code ect.. , a private server , theres file for that game all over the place ,use Google. im not saying much more or ill be told off lol   ;  In the case of a private server, you couldn't make your own monsters...only put other ones wherever you want em,temporarily.   ;  There is a demo version of the Unreal Engine 2 runtime version:at unrealtechnology.comthat might be what the OP meant ... but I doubt that.Afaik there are also limited trial versions of 3d studio max that the OP might be talking about ... but I doubt that, too.
