I would like to ask what programs do SHP building makers usually use to produce such awesome looking building SHPs. I absolutely have no idea what type of program to use. The only photo editor program that I have is Photoshop CS4

They are created as 3D models and rendered into 2D images.
Many use 3dsmax or free programs like blender.

Most use 3DS Max or Blender to make completely new buildings. If you want to make something simple or edit existing buildings Photoshop will be enough. It can take months or years to lean how to use those programs tho, so dont expect to make "awesome" stuff on your first try.

I'll take note of that. Expect some cool SHP buildings in the future.

A part from the time used to learn the controls, it did not took many hours to make my speaker tower. Just be persistant.
Tutorials also help. Smile

Успех!

Then I guess it will only take me a short time to learn how to use Blender. Thanks for this one.
