Sure. By the way, if you want you can send me the .xsi file. I'll make the UV for you and the skin. If you got the UV map already PM it to me :D

Yes, Foundation is necessary. You will have to install PandemicBF2.xsiaddon, confeniently located in BF2_Modtools/XSIAddon. (I think that Foundation is necessary...There might be another tool, but I have no knowledge of one...)
You also should download the trial before buying it...$500 is a real chunk of cash for the full version. :shock:

All you need to do is export the file as a .xsi (File > export > DOTxsi (i think) ) Then send it to me through save file or MSN or one of those :)

Small update: I'm about half way done with UV mapping. I also remodeled parts of the gun (NOT changed the shape, just reduced polygons and did some tweaks) The texture is about 60% done, the base texture is almost done, then i gotta make scratches and such. I'll PM you a picture in a bit.
