I have seen the Unity Car Tutorial, and Majatek’sMcLaren_v2 project, but i want to create one by myself(because its for a school project).Can anyone point me in the right direction on how to aquire models (for free), and how to make it all work without breaking my zero dollar bank?
Go to model sites like TurboSquid and find a free one.
(Click here to see a list of free ones)
Then use 3D modelling programs like 3DSMax, Maya etc…Though I would recommend Blender since it’s free and works great too!
Tweak your models however you want with the 3D program, then export it to FBX then import it into Untiy3D.
This video here covers how to export your model from Blender, and then import it into Unity3D.
it is paid so you can download from here :-
