Whenever people talk about creating meshes for Dragon Age Inquisition mods, they refer to 3Ds Max. Why not Maya? Is the program not compatible with DAI mods? 

 

Also. I know how to install mods already made by other modders, but what if I want to make my own .daimods? Any good tutorials on that? When I google stuff, it brings up how to install nexus mods already made.

 

what's the secret knowledge required for actually making your own complex mods? What, C++? What is it exactly?

It's still kind of cheating, though, because "Ehamloptiran" already created a tool that organized and pops out all the assets and textures from Dragon Age Inquisition for you....when I have this feeling that modders were able to grab these assets from within the bowels of the game without any such in-between tool. Or am I wrong? Are all the modders really just using this Ehamloptiran tool?

C++ is a programming language created at Bell Laboratories back in 1983. C++ is the programming language for many of the games made today.
