You can use Maya, Blender 3D (I think), Milkshape 3D... and Sketchup. You need the DTS Exporter too. I recommend Milkshape 3D.

Is there a program like HMT (Halo map tools) that let you edit a weapon's attributes like damage, blast radius, force, distance, etc.?

Are you talking about Editing weapon scripts?

Yeah, HMT provides a GUI for easily editing weapon values.

Well. I don't Think so. I use Notepad for editing Scripts.

Could you give me a link or something?

http://chumbalum.swissquake.ch/ Milkshape 3D. There is a trial. When the Trial expires you can buy it for $20.

Sorry for Double post but you need the DTS Exporters and a Scripter for it to work In-Game. be sure to flat-shade too.

if you are planning on making add-ons from scratch, think about this first
-Scripting isnt easy. its not like you can type in ;thisweapondoes20damage;(){leftmouseclick}, if you dont know how to script, then you need soembody to teach you because the online tutorials suck.
-modeling is alot easier, but unless you know how to use the program well, you need to take a tutorial.
yeah, dont release your first add-on. no more simple pistol mods, as even i, the suckish scripter, could do that. Unless you ahve tested it in server, preferably online server so that poeple can see if its releasable material. make something exciting and new. some of the untaken ideas are
snipers. there aree only a few, but all of them are fast bullets doing lots of damage with ncie models. try to make it different
not too many shotguns out there. make it shoot lots of bullets with bullet spread
i love rapid fire guns!!!
