3ds Max Basics for Modeling Video Game Assets: Volume 2: Model, Rig and Animate Characters for Export to Unity or Other Game Engines
Autor William Culbertsonen Limba Engleză Hardback – 10 mar 2021
Key Features:
- The goal of this book is to teach the fundamentals of 3D modeling video game characters in a simplified, logical progression optimized for learning at a beginner level.
- Rigging principles (Linking, Inverse Kinematics [IK], Forward Kinematics [FK], Skin Deformation, Weighting Vertices and more) are introduced in a gradual progression to allow maximum comprehension and retention.
- This series of modeling exercises is the result of having successfully taught over 1000 video game students the fundamentals of 3D modeling.
- This complete, clearly written and concise text is written for self-paced learning, helping those instructors who might not be fully trained in 3D modeling and those interested in self-teaching.
- Includes instructions and project files for exporting the finished project environment into the 3D game engine, Unity.
- A companion site (www.3dsMaxBasics.com) includes working 3ds Max project files for chapters, notes and corrections, a 3ds Max user interface, 3ds Max shortcut keys and more.
