3D Sprites?

[22Alpha22]

I just finished playing some GZDoom custom wad/pk3s and have seen some 3D sprites/objects that could be blown up, moved or interacted with and I was wondering how they are made.
Examples:
Half tracks
Pig Tanks
Chairs
Desks

Hmmm... I wonder which mod that was? ;)

You need to use modelling software (eg Milkshape) to make a 3D model in either MD2 (Quake2) or MD3 (Quake3) format (MD3 is better), or find a source of models in that format (other games or various websites) then attach them to an actor using the MODELDEF lump.

Notepad for writing and Slade/XWE for importing.

If you want an all-in-one utility, then use SLADE3.
It has a nice build-in text editor.

I guess, SLADE3 is slowly becoming the de facto lump editing utility.
