Any tips for starting to mod?

As the title suggests, I’m trying to learn how to mod. I’ve played since I was 12 and the BeamNG community gave so much to me over the years - and I think I’m long overdue to start giving back.

I want to start small (like a prop or pigeon engine go kart) and work my way up to a decent vehicle. I have currently installed blender but had a heck of a time trying to even make a square.

After that, there’s the whole importing piece, the wiki that I read didn’t make much sense to me and seemed outdated - is this a trial and error thing?

Sorry if this seems silly, I’m just new to the creation aspect. If you’ve made it this far - thanks for reading, I’m looking forward to all your advice.

 

if you've got a discord account, have a look on the Modding for Dummies Discord Server, there are plenty of people willing to help.

 

Thanks! I have a discord but never use it, so I guess as long as support exists I'll just give something small a shot. May take a while though, busy schedule messing with my time. Anyways, thanks for the response.

 

You're already on the right track with starting with small things, like a prop.
Good luck
