I have a CAD file that I need to texture. The problem is that when I import the CAD file into Max and convert to polys, the resulting geometry is very dense and messy (lots of stretched triangles and poles), which causes a lot of problems when uv unwrapping. Is it usually better to remodel the geometry or to try and clean…
Hi guys, this is by no means a "legitimate" texture, and it is evident. I really winged the entire video, and became impatient part of the way through :P This is by no means at all production quality. However, it will show you how to bake out geometry in 3ds Max or Maya to a texture that is complete with normal maps and…
Hey everyone, hope all is going well! This is a first for me once again: the UV lines of the triangulated model are showing on the textures. I'm curious as to what I've done wrong this time. It doesn't seem to show up everywhere, just on the pants and the (not pictured) shirt sleeves. Thanks, and take care!
Hi guys, I'd like to dabble in hand painting textures but wondering if there's a technique to projection paint what you're doing in Maya into photoshop or something else, I know you can do this with zbrush but for the purposes of low poly painting I'm not sure if it's the right choice? Any advice? Thanks!
Hi all! I'm having a weird problem. When I hit texture from polypaint, a part from the model gets black. The uvs are ok and checked in Maya. The normals are fine as well. I don't know what it's happening. Please help me! I'm uploading a sample of the problem.
Hey guys I want to start learning how to make hand painted textures. Are there many tuts around cause I haven't found many useful ones. Do you need to be a great drawer to make them and how important is it to know how to make then in the game art industry?
Hi, today I want to share with you my current project I am working on, it's a 2k poly Metal drum. The idea is to improve maya workflow, baking and getting a lot better at texturing. Substance Painter 2 bake: I will keep posting as I continue, thanks for reading.
Hi everyone! I just textured the Scar 17 assault rifle. I don't want to make it look like the original, instead with the Sci-Fi look. Plus blue my fav color. Any feedback will help! Thank you! :p
