Pixel textures

Supersexysoapturtle · Apr 2015

Maybe I'm doing something wrong. But my textures are coming out blurry in maya. My texture size is 256x256 for my uv's. I'm trying to make a low poly sort of scene. Can anyone give me information on getting my pixel textures to look clean in maya? Here is my model on sketchfab.

Well, 256x256 is very small I think. Try to render it at a much higher resolution, just to check whether it's a resolution problem or simply a shader problem?

Anyway, it doesn't look so bad. I would maybe use a separate texture for the face, or make it use much more UV space as it's our focus point on characters

Thats a result of Maya filtering the texture, Hawken wrote a guide to turn that off for a variety of applications for lowpoly / pixel tetures:

There should be a similar option on sketchfab, though I'm not too familiar with sketchfabs rendering options.

Edit:

Sketchfab does have filtering options

And their manual for materials

Hope that helps

Thanks man this helped out a ton! If i wanted to make a vg low poly scene what should my uv size be for a character??
