Re: UVW mapping a chain
You don't even need to cut a seam for the unfold strip UV tool to work. It'll work from a single edge selection! :) I'd square off your topmost UVs so they're horizontally aligned to one another - you'll get a little bit of distortion as the texture moves away from an edge, but it'll pack better and look fine from almost… -
Re: Stargate: Universe
Big fan of all things Stargate. I liked the pilot but I'm cautious about the series. It's not traditional Stargate and clearly taking a lot from BSG which I also loved except for the last 5 minutes of that series. :) With this and Bryan Singer's BSG movie (not based on the last series) in the works it'll be interesting to… -
Re: 3DS Max to CNC? -need help
You might want to give Pepakura a shot, it unfolds models for papercraft, and it's a cheap solution. In this thread, it's basically the same concept but with bending foam sheets, but there's a loss of precision if that's important to your project. The basic idea is that they don't cut explicitly along the lines of a low… -
Re: Modeling: Maya Vs. Max
1. uhh make a unrwap uvw with no polys or anything selected, just the object (so your not in any sub-object modes) 2. go into face mode in the unwrap uvw, press ctrl + a to sleect every face 3. hit edit 4. mapping -> flatten mapping or maybe mapping ->unfold (works on simple objects like boxes or mapping -> normal mapping… -
Re: 2D Community Noob Challenge November 2013
Nice shields, guys. Several people have already given some good constructive criticism so I dont feel I have much to ad at the moment. I think all the shield ideas are pretty interesting and looking forward to seeing them develop. Here is an idea I had for an unfolding force field shield. I plan to develop the idea… -
Re: I keep getting texture stretching and pixelated brushes
I did scale down the UVs a little bit, didn't help though. The mesh is too simple, I just unfolded some parts and did some quick planar maps on others. Maybe you can take a look at my OBJ? http://www.2shared.com/file/2_XyP0nk/arc.html it's exported with mudbox presets. Also, smooth UVs inside mudbox didn't help :( thanks… -

Re: MTG fan art: Zendikar Plains
Hey! Thank you so much! you are absolutely right! I will try to bring all of those elements to the piece, I'm actually experimenting a little bit with the composition based on the key elements of the original concept and see if I could create a new piece with that or if I should go back to the original idea. I'm excited to… -
Re: Unwrap Issues
It may be easier to handle the unwrapping by doing a box unwrap so each side it its own island, then stitch them together, so it's like when you see a cardboard box unfolded. I can see in the picture the Uvs are overlapping and relaxing can help. Also The first button under Reshape Elements shapes the selected UVs into…
