Modular World Building
summary
Shows a concrete Maya-centered workflow: custom hotkeys and scripts, using the grid as meters and multiples of two for airtight modular pieces, build profiles from revolves from curves, export low-poly blocks with preserved 2 UV channels as FBX and paste-import into Unreal 4. Demonstrates a homemade Quick Unreal Export pipeline that sets scale and metadata so exported assets land at correct size in engine, and assembles a full level that actually works.
