     These may not seem like much, but this is where it all started for me. This was also way back in 2003-2005, so it was pretty impressive back then, to me at least. :P

Often designers would have to use other programs like Winhex to do "rotation fixes" (aligning objects to the ingame grid) and ResHacker to edit .dll strings for buildings. I started with animals and objects and later moved into creating buildings as well; however I didn't stay long enough to venture into scenarios, paths, and fences.
