Hey, I'm hopefully going to be studying Game Design next year at University.
Can you give me any tips?
And what kind of software do you use?
Thank you :)
Hey dude! Best thing i can advise is. Read up and get some practice in these areas.

3D modelling - There are plenty of tutorials on the basics and such. Main two packages you will be likely to use are either Maya or 3DMax, Possibly Softimage or something similar. Best advice, Try the first two. Learn your favourite as ALL modelling skills are transferable between all packages.

Unwrapping(UV Unwrapping)- There are some decent tutorials out there for this. Try find them

Texturing - Once you learn the first two steps, you will understand more what this means. Just get some partice and buy some books on the matter. One i used early on was called 3D Game Textures.

Finally. Your drawing skills are you most important thing because you will ALWAY use them. Get drawing. Lots.
Cheers dude, this helps a lot. There's a Game Design recruitment company up the road from my college, and I've asked them question's and also other people, and they aren't much help to be honest lol.
