This section offers some basic introductory tutorials to help a beginner learn specific functionality in key areas of our products.

Going through these tutorials is an excellent preparation for taking one of our open enrollment classes. Students that have worked through the tutorials come to class armed with questions that give them a significant edge in getting the most from our training classes. It's also a viable option for those who would like to learn about MultiGen-Paradigm products, but can't travel to one of our training facilities.

All of our self-paced tutorials have links to downloadable models, texture and code sample. The tutorials offer many examples of your new MultiGen-Paradigm tools in action, in addition to practical, yet up-to-date tips and techniques to address difficult modeling challenges.

Each tutorial covers
