What's up everyone, I've been into Tony Hawk since I was a kid, and I think it would be awesome to get into the development side and start doing ports of the games which and pay it back to the community. I'm pretty familiar with software (the whole spectrum from Python and Java to C to x86-64 and MIPS) so I'm comfortable with higher and lower level stuff but I've never done game modding and I'd like to just get into it with Tony Hawk because these were always my favorite games. So for those o you who mod and port, how did you get into it and what would be the right steps to be able to start doing this kind of stuff for someone who already has a pretty good technical background but has never dealt with games before?

You'll want to get Blender 2.79 and the THPS blender plugin by KSK here http://tharchive.net/misc/io_thps_scene.html

If you haven't joined our discord yet, that would also be helpful for you since there are quite a lot of knowledgeable people there on this topic.
