People ask the question... what's a real modder? And I tell 'em - it's not about jumpscares, poofers, and a watered down story, oh no. There's more there than that, my friend. We all create parts of a good mod - some the assets, some the scares, others the puzzles, the story, or the gameplay. But a real modder, oh, he's different. Why? Because a real good modder makes the fucking lot.

6. Having nDO2 in your workflow

Good luck on future modeling & texturing! I'll try to answer any questions below.
