3 Dimensions

Unity
A while back I wrote a tutorial on getting LightWave objects into the Unity 3D game engine and setting up a simple environment to run around in. This tutorial was published in the November 2009 LightWave newsletter. Unfortunately the URL of that newsletter changes every month so I can't link to it, but I can link to the files.

This is the actual tutorial in PDF form:

Here are some sample objects that were used in the tutorial. You may also recognize them from my demo reel.

This is a final playable version of the "game".

You will need to have the Unity Web Player installed. You can get that here:

Tire tread
Also recently someone asked me to explain how I did the tread for my tires on the Audi R8 model I'm currently working on. So I wrote up a quick tutorial explaining how that was done in Photoshop and 3D-Coat, the exported to LightWave.

Here is the tutorialin PDF format:

And this is the tire tread photo I used for reference:
