Old post getting revived with "me too!" answers; open-ended questions better for forums, anyway.
What is the best free 3D modeling program to use alongside with Unity?
Iv been watching a few tutorial videos by tornado-twin which have been very helpful so far. But he mentions that its better to use different 3d modeling programs instead of just unity when creating 3d objects in a game.
I just wondered which is the best choice (that is free to download) of 3d modeling software to use and learn on?
Anyone one anything other than Blender, google sketch up or maya? I would be interested to know what you all use thanks! =)
How about DAZ it comes with pre-made figures. YOU only have to add texture/material LIN$$anonymous$$:https://www.daz3d.com/daz_studio
Blender is free and good, but fairly complex if you haven't used a 3D modelling package before.
Google sketchup is probably quicker and easier to get started with. It can export to Collada format, which should work with Unity.
Google Sketchup is only to learn you cant sell your creations with it and the pro version is almost 700 bucks for the license
I'm using sculptris and have found it really quick to learn and easy to use: http://www.sculptris.com/download.html
Heres a video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6DNRg6pdNeE
It's a sculpting tool so it best suited to organic things like characters and trees, less suited to making buildings.
hey Petroz i took your advice and made a model but unity doesent accept its SC1 file type and nobody tells me how to convert it to a unity compatable file please help
i know this is old but sooo many people miss this.
maya is in fact free if you are a student. just go to the alias site and navigate to the student page. actually don't bother cos it's here, look, just below :)
free maya and other alias stuff for students
ching ching!
yeah but its for learning purposes only so cant really use in any unity projects
Lots of people use blender as it is free and easy to achieve good models after a little practice
Thanks alot! i downloaded blender that seems good is maya better quality or?
maya is free? I am a max user, I always thought maya was in competition with max. Did not know it was free.
One more vote for Blender. I hated it at first, but it was worth getting used to it, now I love it. You can try $$anonymous$$aya for free, then pay $1745 USD after. And it's a huge investment in time too, so you might as well go Blender.
My Favorite is Cheetah 3D. It's easy to use and powerful.I would check out Cheetah3d
