The following video is directly from Module 1 of 3 in "3D Game Environment Modeling/UVing Foundation" series. I've released this first Module completely free. It is focused on teaching you how to get started with interface overview in Maya LT/Maya specifically for game environment artist.
-First Module is focused on interface overview for game environment modeling.
-Second Module is focused on game environment modeling techniques.
-Third Module is focused on UV mapping, UV unwrapping and UVing.

this is the most comprehensive snapping tutorial on the planet! bought the course after watching this! thanks Alex
Thank you! I appreciate it. I've been working on more MayaLT/Maya tutorials and will begin to release more of them starting in 2021.
Dude modifying the pivot points was my nemesis since last year, today I have mastered it, thank you~!
Your video save me Sir. keep saving more people
I will Antonio. Thank you!
These videos are a lifesaver. I'm taking an animation class and Its so hard to follow along. Thank you!
thank you! this was very educational!! simple and straight to the point :D
Thanks for watching. Glad it helped.
You are genius to merge snap and pivot into one tutorial, thank you my master lord \o/
Excellent. Straight to the point. Many thanx
Thx, dude! That was REALLY helpfull!!!
I don't know you, but I think I love you.
Very very informative video
thank you
thanks for sharing
Thank you
Can you snap existing joints to center of an edgeloop that is part of bigger mesh? Seems impossible to do in maya.
how did highlight edge with blue color
stop using hot keys - if I want to enable changing pivot point with out hitting insert what needs to be done?
Hold 'D' key and modify the pivot point.
Hold 'D' and 'C, V, or X' to modify the pivot point and snap to an edge (C), vertex (V) or grid (X).
Maybe I'm blanking out here, but what is the insert key? Or was it a shortcut command?
Insert key toggles to modify your pivot point on objects.
Thanks. Yeah my keyboard doesn't have the insert key, but I realized that you said that you can use the D key too. Working now!
I have an insert key but Maya doesn't seem to respond to it so thanks for sharing about the D key!
For the love of god, all I want is to know how to make a face, like in Blender with the f key, but in Maya! The append option doesn't work, the connect option too doesn't work and I'm stuck!
Try Bridge, select 2 edges and Bridge.
Append or Bridge should work, if it doesn't you might have some issues with geometry.
WorldofLevelDesign Thank you so much for your response, I had just realized that that's an option but even though it works it only does so sometimes. I've tested with different and simple geometries, i.e., I tried to have the edges further from each other, closer to each other, rotated differently or being placed almost on different height levels and the bridge tool works sometimes, more often than not it decides to create a "glitchy" cross instead of a straight face. Honestly I'm pretty put off by this and I now understand where Blender excels, but something tells me that Maya could potentially be more usable for modelling if a Wacom tablet were to be used together with a precise and pressure- sensitive pen, I'll test out my theory once I get a hold of one by the end of this year.
Luckily my university and its Games Academy doesn't require me to use Maya, Blender is the required 3D modeling program to use. I'm learning to use Maya out of both curiosity and future interest for more often then not companies require either proficient knowledge in Maya or 3DsMax, Blender is mentioned quite rarely and mostly alongside those other programs.
do you know there is possible bind hotkey for grid subdivision?
I haven't found how to do that yet. But I haven't tried it recently with new versions of Maya. I feel that there has to be a way even if it's using the Mel Script into Custom Shelf Icon.
@@WorldofLevelDesign thanks for answer. I found custom script after some research around
@@cafenight7672 Nice. Can you share?
@@WorldofLevelDesign sure polycount.com/discussion/90227/maya-grid-shortcut by m4dcow
@@cafenight7672 Thanks!
can we reset pivot point once changed?
Go to Modify > Center Pivot
thanks!!!!
got the same one as you but the whole right hand column is completely different...you got channel box/ layer editor with tabs on side saying attribute editor and channel box/layer editor...
I got Modeling Toolkit / attribute editor with no tabs on side like you...never mind had to activate it...considering this is based on AutoCAD why the frick is it totally different in using! like WTF
snap to center? no hotkey?
[Modify] => [Center Pivot]
