hey guys this is swell i really want to be into this can anyone help me. i need to know what softwares i need. sytem requirements and stuffs like that. i know ive got what it takes to do something wonderful like u guys have paraded
Nice first of all read the advice posted by graphikdon about choosing 3d software.For 3d work, Your system needs to be up to spec. For Desktops a resonably high-rated P4 or and AMD Athlon.For laptops a good Centrino Duo or an AMD Turion 64 should serve. Again RAM And the power of your Graphics card are essential. Also you may want to register at www.3dnigeria.com and visit the forumthere youll find lots of people willing to help

if u really want to go into CG, u first of all have to know what part of CG u want to go into, is it animation, modelling or rendering to me, animation is the most enjoyable part and the best software for that is MAYA. at first glance the maya UI could be overwhelming but after a few days of practice u get used to it. but u have to continue cus u learn something new everyday. gimme a call or email me if u have any questions. my # is 08036758056 email: blackgoldng@yahoo.com

I strongly agree with fatboi and others and I feel all has been said. But the watch word is 'dedication and commitment'. The genuie zeal must be there. For someone like me I had a degree in Architecture and later my Postgraduate degree in Architecture also came up in CAAD and Animation,also got a diploma in animation. I was pulled into architectural visualisation in Nigeria context back in those days of my first five years of work experience in Nigeria, taking inspirations from the works of Dr Gbotoso ( if u know him). When I got to the west I realised the real string of attachment and relationship in 3d for architects, film makers, Graphic artists and others. All I will say is that , there is nothing difficult when you r ready to face it and have your tool at hand. Today I am comfortable with the great five in 3d ( 3d studio max, maya, xsi softimage, lightwave 3d and Cinema 4d) I use any ideal one that suits the range of my work which spans from TV montage, short movie special effects and architectural visualisation.But come to think of it , my permanet job at the moment is still a design architect. Just like larger _20, my salary rests on something else but not on my bills and rent because my private job in 3d which are mostly outside architecture keep the goings going. Thank God Nigeria client takes the higher percentage on my clientele. I will post some of my works one of these days and when my web site is ready I will share as well. I write all this just to make you see a reason and support the idea why a FOCUS is needed first before any other thing in 3d world.

Hello guys. I'm not surprised at what am seeing on this forum. I've always known there are oceans of talents in this country. And personally, i don't believe there is anything too difficult to learn. Anyway, the help i need from u gurus is information on where i can get a detailed tutorial on 3D studio max. I got the software recently but i'be not been able to use it because, to my surprise i didn't find any help file in it. A pragmatic reply would be appreciated. Thanks.

I've got tons of tutorials and ebooks together with stunning resources,but some of them are far more than the size that could be directly shared online without a P to P process. If you are in Nigeria this may be a bit tight for you to have resources from me tru this medium. Nonetheless get in tourch with me maybe we may be able to organise a way out.

For those that need video tutorials, i have enough and am willing to give them out so that we can all up our 3d game in nigeria.
But there's one problem; how do you get them. All together they're more than 25Gb. I stay in lagos and my e-mail address: bolarinbabalola@yahoo.co.uk
Note:Never you try to sell this tutorial, incase i give them to you.

Hi zpixel, You are really doing those of us who want to learn a big favour. The knowlege of 3D modelling will go a long way in helping me design a sophisticated 3D game. Thanks for your help.

Gebeengs, like I have told you that I am not in the country now , it may be a bit hollowed in transfering files to you if you do't have a strong and reliable connection. Check out those stuffs from zpixel and if there is any one you may still need outside it let me know.Then I will find a way of getting it across.
