Need help with an unwrap to get better resolution.

LostLeo77 · Apr 2018

I have this train car model that i am done modeling both my high and low polys. After several unwrap tests and baking failures I am coming here to get some help. I originally wanted to do a 2k texture but now it seems like I might have to do a 4k texture or 2k for the bigger stuff and a 1k for the smaller stuff? Any help is greatly appreciated.

Depending on the target engine, you could use multi-layer materials with tiling textures, which would give you much better resolution close up. Showing the unwrap and giving a bit more information would help other people to easier debug your issue though.

Right, i guess i should put my current UVs form the start. I'm looking to render my final product in Marmoset.

There is this layered material for Toolbag:

Its a common approach to blend a few tiling textures on large assets, so to avoid the issue you are facing right now.
