Course Overview
Learn the basics of using Blender and Gimp to build a modular 3d set inside of Unity!
In this course, instructor Alan Thorn takes you through the basics of modeling inside of Blender, as well as texturing with the free image manipulation software Gimp. Using these tools, you'll learn his complete asset-creation pipeline for this modular set. We then follow it up by learning how to import those assets into Unity, and set up our own playable game environment.

Nice course on building levels in Blender, and using Gimp to add texture. And then going through the procedure of importing Blender meshes into Unity. The course still has valuable info.

Alan Thorn, bien connu dans le milieu, très confortable dans son domaine. Autodidacte et donne plusieurs conférences depuis plusieurs années. Hautement recommandé pour les débutants et intermédiaire qui désirent comprendre comment utiliser Unity3D, Blender et autres outils qu'il utilise parfois. A aussi écrit plusieurs livres sur le sujet.

Not a bad course. The most useful stuff was basically how to avoid some of the pitfalls when exporting for Unity, and some of that info was outdated. Luckily a kind user (Charles) described a more up to date solution in a comment.
