About This Video In 8 well structured sections with 51 short videos you will get a complete introduction and video reference guide to Blender and how to create game assets.The training series will end with importing a hat game asset into Team Fortress 2.In the first section all the basic knowledge will be built up to begin modeling in Blender. From there it's full steam ahead on making a Team Fortress game asset, where additional topics are explored in many 10 minute chapters - so you can just come in and browse the section on 'baking normals' or 'setting up for 3d painting' or 'exporting into Team Fortress 2' or 'an introduction to uv's'. Or you can watch the whole series sequentially as a training session to master Blender in general.Author Aidy Burrows lives in Manchester UK and has worked for large games companies on next-gen titles titles such as Lord of the Rings and Lego Marvel. He's been trained with 3ds Max and Maya but now uses Blender for his work as well. Currently he's working as part of the CGMasters team to produce free high quality training material.NOTE: the associated Blender files will be in a ZIP archive in the Software catalog of the Steam client.This video tutorial was produced by Blender Institute.

Streaming is still a bit sketchy, but usually I can now stream at 1080p and the ends of the videos aren't being cut off. I've gone through half of the videos now and the instruction is clear and well spoken. Be prepared to pause often, switching back and forth from the video and blender as you follow along.If Steam streaming works smoothly at 720p or higher, I'd recommend this series to you.***************\/I've been trying to use these videos for a couple days now. I have a good internet connect and can stream youtube videos at 1080p without a problem. My computers are also very nice.Streaming at 1080p constantly pauses and buffers. A lower resolution of course is faster but you end up having to read fuzzy text. It makes learning from these tutorials less than optimal.Currently to stream the tutorial smoothly the resolution is so low that I cannot read the text.Also the video stops playing five seconds before the end and will not continue to play.This is more of a problem with the streaming service than the tutorials themselves. The content seems to be great from what I can tell through the stuttering dialogue and fuzzy text.I'd avoid buying these tutorials until these problems are fixed and will update this review when they are.. This tutorial does a great job at showing the general process of making a game asset within blender but ultimately limits its self by making the viewer create an object for TF2, a game that's very old which means the quality of the asset has to be significantly reduced for the game to handle it. If you're only interested in modding or creating community content then this tutorial is for you but if you actually want to learn game development then it's only good as a refrence.. ***NOTE: Review based on first three sections, I got to the modelling and realised this was too advanced for me. I will update this review when I can continue when I have a bit more basic knowledge***I have given this a thumbs up as it really is organised and goes through the introduction to Blender well. I do find however that this might not be for beginners such as myself. The tutorial goes through the settings and different tool quite nicely, but when this moves on to modelling the example, he moves a bit too quickly and I think you need to be alot more familiar with 3D modelling to fully understand what is going on and to be able to follow. This was perhaps my mistake for not understanding what this was properly before purchase. I do aim on returning to this once I have developed my skills a bit better.. I find the videos to be informative and practical. There's a lot of information, and you'll have to rewind a lot... I've been using the program for years, and this is bringing some new points to light. Anything not new is a good review.. Blender is an incredibly powerful graphics tool. The video collection is an incredible help for such a powerful tool. The learning curve for blender can be a bit steep but the videos are clear and extremely informative in scaling that learning curve with ease.. Nice Tutorials. I am also not a beginner but these videos provide some useful information. learned already some tricks to use in further projects. 8\/10 because you cant download them and have to watch in steam. (buffering can be a pain in the\u2665\u2665\u2665\u2665\u2665somethimes).. Very good video collection good for beginners and also teaches advanced users (like me) ne stuf and how to insert your model into tf2. Not recommend ONLY because "No Save local option" this is streaming only and I have a bandwidth cap because I dont live in town.
