Introduction to Maya - Modeling Fundamentals Vol 1

This course will look at the fundamentals of modeling in Maya with an emphasis on creating good topology. We'll look at what makes a good model in Maya and why objects are modeled in the way they are.

When do you think computers would be able simulate entire worlds in intricate detail... like in the Matrix or Avalon?

That's some pretty sweet stuff.

I know that Halo 3 used some aspects of RT'ing, but that's been done for a while now...

Eventually we'll be able to simulate global illumination in real-time, as comps get faster and new techniques for photon mapping appear.
