Resident Evil 1 - WCIII Style

[:1]I've seen lots of Resident Evil maps out there, and none have lived up to my expectations. So, in awe of my disappointment I realize, "Hey! I can make my own."

This has been an extensive project thus far as I am simulating the game to the fullest potential as I can. My version will be based off of the Original Resident Evil 1 Director's Cut played as Chris Redfield. I am duplicating every camera angel in the game, almost exactly. I have a few exceptions to make it so that you can actually see well enough to navigate and go through doors, otherwise, when finished this will be a complete duplicate.

My only difficulties lie in creating decent models. I'm on a Mac and there are no model file generators that I can find out there. Also, I'm trying to figure out the triggers to make weapons you pick up work as well as combinable items. If anyone can let me know how to accomplish these, and/or knows of a good model file creator for Mac, I would appreciate it.

Note: This is still a ways out in production as I'm still laying out the basis of the Mansion. In the end, I realized I will probably need to make this a campaign setting for the various areas, Mansion, Courtyard, Laboratory, etc. But, when it's finished, it will be amazing, guaranteed.
