    Unfortunately, the plugins for 3DSM do not work with 3DSM 6, so you will need an earlier version (I think 3/4/5). You can still do skinning with photoshop.

    If you can get a hold of a compatible copy of 3DSM, I recommend going to San's Site. He lists a ton of tutorials for modding GR.

    Also, you should go to GhostRecon.Net. Their forums seem to be the place most GR modders congregate to get help and help others.

    Check Ebay. I'm not sure if Discreet sells old versions, but if you're a student, it would be worth checking out. I'm pretty sure they offer student discounts.

    Maya is used for game development occasionally but it is used more for movies (special effects). However, you must use 3DSM v3, 4, 5 for GR modding. There are no plugins for other 3D modeling software. The GR plugins can be found on the Island Thunder disc.
