| If this is your first time venturing into the world of game modding, let me post a warning now. You are entering into something that many people, including myself, have described as addicting, exciting, and frustrating all at the same time. I know of very few people who have started on the path of game modification and found it easy to stop working on their projects for even a few days. If you are experienced in game modification, you already know what you’re getting yourself into. Either way, I welcome you to Quake 4 Mods For Dummies.
I’ve led many beginners along the path of game modification, and they all say the same thing. This is an addictive hobby, and it isn’t easy to put down even for the night. On several occasions, I’ve sat down in my computer chair to work on my game, planning to accomplish only a few things. The next thing I know, it’s 2 o’clock in the morning, I’m still working, and I have to get up for work in another four hours.
So, heed my warning, but also enjoy what is to come. This book gives you the knowledge and skill to mod on your own. You not only figure out how to create modifications for the Quake 4 game, but also create content that will have you bragging to your friends and family. Although this book can’t tell you every aspect of modding Quake 4, it shows you how to continue on your and grow into a master of games. |
