I'd like to know if anyone has a process that they use to create their mods. Does it help to keep the process efficient and keep you on a specific task?
i don't think anyone follows a grand scheme for an entire project, each map or vehicle will have its own unique little things that are best sorted out earlier or later. as far as subsets of things such as modelling a car's body, or shaping the layout of a map, i'd guess most experienced people definitely have a workflow they settle into.
Yes. I keep a todo list with entries ordered by priority. When I feel like "modding" (not too sure what you meant by that BTW), I pick something that's reasonably up high in the list and fun to do for me at the moment. When I don't feel like doing anything on the list but I'm thinking about the game for some reason, I shitpost on the forums.
