Finding the bits in the menus is very tough but knowing the hotkeys does make it simpler, but is overall confusing.

You will get used to it quite quick mate at the time I picked it up really quickly and made a stock/inventry/pos software with it and a accounting software but I haven't touched it since so it would be like learning it all over again.
There are some really good books out there maybe go to the library for a reference book one you have gotten used to it and there are some good YouTube videos out there that will help also

on a side note, I have picked up 2 new courses.. both for ue4 but mainly for the c++ coding lessons they provide and game making practicle lessons to apply the scripts to an environment like. so far I have picked up over 500£ worth of courses now for less then £50
thanks again to you liam m8 for the info on this stuff cant wait to fill my brain with useful info for game development instead of winging it all the time lol.

Exporting as FBX in maya is same as max. "File > Export > Choose FBX > Fill in options like/( embed media if the textures are not in your folder, export animations), then press ok".
Please bear in mind, that the FBX importer for skyline is best worked with vertices counts of under 65535. This is because of the limit of 16bit index buffers. 32bit buffers can use up to 4 million vertices i think ... and the last time we tried it didnt work too well lol

I am not that good at sculpting and get annoyed with it lol..
Once you have finished that tutorial, there is a good one that goes quite slow for gaming environments, and one for unwrapping the UV's. After unwrapping them take them into your favorite painting app to make the textures (or just send the models to me with the deffuse map and I can create the Normal, AO, Spec and roughness maps for you..
These below are 3DS Max tutorials but the principles are the same.
Other great tutorials.
