Basically everything we did was new for me, so I learnt
a lot but here are some of the most useful:
- ask someone for help when you have no idea what to do - ask classmates, the tutors, lecturers, or literally anyone who looks like they no what they're doing. This is really helpful especially for learning all the new software- you find exactly what you need to know & save heaps of time!
- listen to what the tutors mention in class, even if it doen't apply directly to your own work at the time...it probably will at some stage.
-Something I found really handy using Unreal:when you want to copy multiple objects or replicate a set of the same objects quickly - hold down the 'CTRL' button and left click the objects you want. This allows you to select & deselect exacly what you need. From there you can copy & paste as you wish...but remember to rebuild all geometries at the end.
