NEWBIE Q: MAYA- Textures UVs and why they move (or don´t)
Please excuse the newb Question. I have 2 related questions (slightly cross-posted from another forum, that seemed a bit dead - no response) I am modeling a book, based on a scan of the books cover. Is it possible for me to add the texture to a mesh ( a plane of a box for example) THEN stretch and shape the mesh, but have… -
[Cryengine] Helicopters in Space.
Here is 90% done greybox (one more detail pass left) of my gunship. Idea for it came up when I heard a lot about "Fighter plane is Space" critique some time ago for certain games, I was like - hey lets make a space helicopter.

Re: Trim sheets. How to use them?

So you're right about the graphic read of breaking up detail with large masses and smaller detailed passages. However, I would suggest you focus on getting the design… -
Re: Marmoset Tool For [UE4]
Valid point. Here is my opinion. The advanced lighting map is a great tool. My goal here is to combine the functionality of the material instance editor and the advanced lighting map (plus lots of other cool features) with a clean ui that is intuitive and easy to navigate.

Re: SOLVED: Quixel Suite keeps crashing
Hey, I'm using ver 1.8. What I mean by reduced resolution is the working resolution in the base creator panel. Issue #1 When I set the work resolution percentage low and then use the export function it saves out the working res rather than the full res.
