hi!
I have an idea about a new mod for Ship (Player) but I don't know what software I could use to create the 20-positions image of the ship....

What the simplest (freeware :) programs I can use?

Thx in advance!

You use 40-facings, not 20 actually, for any of the playerships.

Also, you would need to render them, as opposed to draw them, as they are rendered at a position of 2 units back, 4 units above the origin (center of the ship around which it rotates).

A lot of people here use blender: I wouldn't exactly call it easy, but... hey, we can help you out learning it.
