Problems with modular Assets in Unity

b4nj0 · Nov 2015

Hello polycount forum.
As you can see i have a problem with creating modular assets in unity.
The middle part has a darker shade then the corner parts.

As far as i can tell, it looks like an issue the the normals.
The mesh uses smooth shading, has no problems in blender.
It has the same problem with unity default material and not textures.
Trying different import settings didn't help.

Anyone has any advice for me?

Looks like you might want to UV this as a whole, not as individual parts. There's some mirroring between the left and middle parts. I would suggest UVing everything together, then split them up and use an Edge Split modifier so that you get some hard edges where you need it. Don't worry about the edges splitting, Unity will do that anyway so it should be OK.

Try checking if stitch uv is active in light properties inside Unity for the modular parts.

I can't find this option in the Unity 5.0 lighting settings.
Did it moved somewhere else?

Its in custom lightmap parameters, edge stitch. You then need to assign that to your mesh from lighting tab>object.
