Hello Devs,

I’ve been struggling for the past few months with try and working to create a game/ learn how to 3D model and stuff that goes along with that. I’m lost and stuck, I can’t figure it out and I’m starting to lose hope that this is the right thing for me.

It’s really frustrating that I can’t learn this stuff, and I hate the feeling that this might just not be for me.
If anyone has any ideas or things that could help, I’d really appreciate it.

I’m sorry if this is a post that shouldn’t be on the devforum, I and I also apologize if this is under the incorrect topic.

If you ever would like to reach me, you can contact me here or on discord @AL1V1BEZ#3722

Thanks for reading,

Side note - my other post was unlisted after an 1hr since it was under the wrong topic.

I think you should start with Roblox Studio and watch tutorials on YT on how to start building, the first time I entered Roblox Studio it was very complicated, but after watching videos I adapted and started building without having to watch tutorials :slight_smile:

I hope I have helped you … :smiley:

Honestly the only way ive learned to do things is by taking really tiny tasks from things like blender and slowly getting to bigger projects. im not actually the best example of this, but I started learning to code by making a field of parts spawn randomly in the sky. I did that for a few days until I learned how to color parts. I think this slow style learning may sound like you dont know how to learn the material, but really its just taking time to sink in and when you finally get it you are REALLY skilled at it.

Hey, don’t worry, I got you covered; here’s some channels that really helped me learn. My personal favorite is RoBuilder, you can learn a ton of blender easily.

As already mentioned, you can see tutorials on YT on how to model! If you want to learn how to use blender then you have to have patience. You have to try a lot until you are proud of what you made! It’s not easy to be very good at something you try for the first time.

If you want a more formal blender education and don’t mind paying (it wasn’t expensive, like $20), there are places like udemy that offer courses. The people who make those courses are usually available to answer questions or offer forums of their own to help you complete them.

I personally like the beginner blender course by GameDev.
