Basic Props Modelling.
This tutorial from Noesis Interactive shows you to take your 3D model from Maya and turn it into an active video game prop. Learn the processes of exporting, compiling, and integrating your prop into a level and then watch as it is used in Half-Life 2. This lesson is taken directly from the Noesis Interactive training DVD "Custom Props and Animation for Source Powered Games with Maya".
Download "Noesis Database-Intro to Custom Props with Maya" before starting as it contains files used in this demonstration video. You will also need to get the Maya application from Autodesk.
