Re: Just a small obelisk - sketchfab
Hi sventizzle, Thanks for your reply ! I wanted to let the UVs in the good rotation, in order to be able to quickly edit it on photoshop if needed, but since the work is finished, I can rotate my UVs as I want. So, I finally made my UV set as you said. -

Re: Normal/Specular issues.
Marmoset is great for quickly checking if normals are working correctly/ textures are cohesive in hue/saturation but aside from that UDK will change the look almost completely...in any case...maybe the lightmap??
