Thanks Eric. The interview went pretty well I think, since it was set up for 15 min but ended up taking 50 and I got asked to do an Art-Test. That's what I am worried about now. I should probably create a new topic for this but I have a feeling I'll be asked to create a real world building that could be used inside a huge…
Hi everyone, For my graduation project, I chose to do a modular environment with Unreal Engine 4. I chose to go with a Tuscany Street with Sienna as a main inspiration. Here are some of my boards, and the first prop I did. I'll start tomorrow with the modular kit for the buildings, and will post some WIP as I'll advance on…

Usually modular kits adhere to metrics for the sole reason of snapping to the grid. eg, you know you won't have any gaps or extra geo if you know your wall kits are a denominator of 100cm widths (50cm, 25cm variants etc), and the rooms that you have blocked out are 10mx10m. If your level is "organic" and requires no…
The overall concept for this project is determining which modeling process better suits creating models for architectural visualization for real time. The target game engine being UDK. So, in a sense, polycount and modularity play a rather late role in the criteria. But with a home as small as the example, could you do it…
For sure, and despite I do play games (although what I would consider minimally) I don't think the pastime is overly related to good game design or good art, its like wine tasting and brewing, its two different aspects very little crossover. I could either play a 100 games with a complex modular level design and then…
hey, i got a question. You said the idea is to keep the modular pieces down to a minimum. So if your building a modular set. You have everything at a certain scale right? So you can put it together yourself like lego pieces. The thing i'm wondering is that, isn't it hard to put it exactly where you want? Especially the…
The rocks look better, but the cliff wouldn't be made up of round rocks like that. It would be a lot flatter and look more like a singular piece of cliff. That would be difficult to model, but making a new modular rock specifically for flatter areas would fit well with the cliff. You might have come across this tutorial…
Never feel embarrassed about being very young starting out, its actually quite lucky lol. If your thinking of doing something like this my best advice is get taking lots and lots of screen shots of what you want to re-create, its all about references. Then look at modern 3d, the (sorry everyone) Sci-Fi hall ways, believe…
Hey guys! I've been trying to switch over to Unreal after exclusively using Unity. Unfortunately, trying to get a modular level to work with lighting has been absolutely kicking my butt. I've followed the posts about creating multiple UV sets using the secondary one for lighting, and I'm not too concerned about the seam…
