3D Modelling

Introduction – In this module I will be covering my development process in 3D modelling. The software that I am using to make the models is 3DS MAX which is professional software commonly used to make high-end realistic models. I will be making models over the year to implement into my unity projects that I will be making.

What critera do I need to produce?

Assigning Materials and textures

Scale, transform, subdivide and extrude vertexs, edges and shapes

Modes and types of selection

Adding and using deformers and other modifiers

Mesh simplification and optimisation (e..g. back face culling, reduction of polys/ vertexes etc.)

UV and normal mapping

Recreating existing objects/ creating new objects

Lighting and rendering

Scene composition

Export and setup of model into game engine

Basic animation

Differences in high and low poly modelling

Demonstration of understanding of why techniques are applied

Demonstration of choosing correct key techniques for each use case
