Course Description

Instructor Info

Emiel Sleegers always had love for video games and when he was young, he started using Unity3D for programming but he found himself gravitating more towards the art of making games. Now he is currently working as an environment artist in Ubisoft. He contributed to creating AAA games such as Forza Horizon 3 and The Division 2. His all time favorite game is The Last of Us and that video game is what inspired him to want to work in the game industry. His advice for beginner artists is to focus on one aspect of gaming that they are passionate about, stick to it and get better at it. His hobbies include anything related to games or films, whether it be working on personal projects, freelance work or going out for movies. 

Course Info 

In this course, we will go over the entire process of how to create a Japanese Alley game environment. We will first start out with a blockout of the scene to achieve a proper sense of scale, and once that is done, we will go back to the blockout to 3d modeling the buildings. We will do a high poly to low poly workflow where we will create a high res and low res model and bake normal maps for them. We will go through the process of how to make the environment look realistic, how to use weighted vertex normals, and how to do smart, quick and clean unwrapping of uvs. Then we will jump into Substance Designer to create tilable textures such as metal, concrete, and tarmac. We will touch up on Substance Painter and little bit of Photoshop to texture our props. Once everything is modeled and textured, we will import everything in Unreal to setup our materials and lighting for a nice final render.

Very detailed, and taught some interesting techniques. I liked that it went over all of the troubleshooting steps at the beginning, but towards the end, it felt a little less structured and organized, and it seemed like too much time went into troubleshooting issues.

Thanks for the interesting and useful course. I've create good location with it. And yea, in Maya. Not necessary in 3DS Max. The explanations are detailed and they are enough for this.

By Alberto on 12/5/2019

Creo que sin lugar a dudas , es el mejor curso que he podido hacer en udemy por ahora. Se explican muchísimas cosas y sabiendo el modelado básico y texturizado puedes llegar aprender mucho. De verdad que para mí, está siendo un curso indispensable podría decir y llevo ya el 75%

By Konstantinos Sisikis on 10/4/2019

Its really an amazing course. I had no doubts when i saw the trailer but now i can tell for sure.I used to work with Unity , this is my first time with Unreal and everything is explained in every detail.Can wait to go further.

Just a nice course, learnt some new things to use in my portfolio. But the project in the tutorials should be smaller because the instructor is most of time on rush to show us all information.

By Jaikumar Gurubaran on 4/7/2019

Thanks to the instructor for taking wonderful concept and achieved it in manageable time span. Have learned different tricks and tips from the instructor which is very useful. I will be definitely using the methods and tips shown in this in my future personal projects.

By Rufino Acosta Campaña on 10/24/2018

Un tutorial muy extenso, con muchísima información valiosa (he tomado muchas anotaciones y marcadores).

By Nick Margie on 10/3/2018

A solid course that covers a lot of details. I just completed the box modeling and import to UE4 sections. So it is a bit early for me to speak about the modeling and substance sections So far teh instructors does a good job explaining the little details when ti comes to both his logic behind choices he makes as well as technical issues like lighting. So far I am very happy I bought this course and will update my review if anything changes
