Re: Maya Flatten Mapping?
Don't relay on auto mapping tools to do your job. Just learn Maya's UV tools and it will be a breeze to unwrap anything. This video helped me a lot with Maya's UV tools. http://vimeo.com/16590844 The only thing he says that you shouldn't follow is the relax tool being useless. If you do the relax tool a little bit and then… -
Re: Hangover, lets listen to some electro: The thread
Some great music in this thread although I'm not sure how much I could cope with if I had a hangover! Some more relaxed stuff that would soothe an aching head on a Sunday morning :) (though the artists produce a selection of styles) Michael mayer/ carsten jost - immer [ame]… -
Industry related April Fools Pranks
I'm two days behind, but that doesn't really matter. I'm sure we've all seen a few good industry related April Fools Day pranks in the last few days, and I wanted to see what everyone else stumbled upon.

Re: Game engines in relation to poly count?
A lot of it varies per engine and how the model data format is handled/implemented. UT2k3 doesn't seem to have a restrictive upper limit if it does have a limit at all.

Re: UV layout guide on makehuman
Gah, i didn't get that you actually made the guide. Polycount is very game art related so, yes everything doesnt apply the same way. And, yeah i thought it was a blender related thing, so i was expecting some more on projections, and algorithms to help the job (relax lscm). Read that quickly the 1st time tbh. I think it's… -
Re: Weird problem with importing meshes to SB or Marmoset
Padding is originally setup when you pack your uvs. It just means allowing sufficient pixels between shells to allow for texture bleeding/mipmapping. As for cutting up your uvs, this is something you have to figure out. It's a balancing of the number of seams to the amount of distortion. For your head model you can cut it… -

Major PC issues, possibly XNormal related?
Hey everyone, I'm experiencing a serious problem with my computer and wondering if it's related to XNormal, and also curious as to whether anyone else has had similar? Firstly, I'm running Win7 64 on a Mac Pro, although I think that's irrelevant since the Mac side is running fine, as was the Windows partition until last…
