[MAYA] Creating straight uvs in maya for pixel art texture , cant get straighten uvs to work
Hello all. I am currently working on a character and I want it to have pixel textures. I am confused about how to straighten uvs. I am currently trying it with this simple mesh, but whenever I try to straighten it, it looks deformed and you can see the stretching on the checker map. I tried different values of the… -
Re: Blender Edit Mode Performance
Yeah, a screenshot of the UI or preferentially a video would help to understand what's happening and what's unacceptable performance for you. Here for example I'm on a scene with 2m tris and take barely a second to switch to edit mode on a 700k object on my old computer - and I'm okay with that -, while it can take over 3s… -
Re: Former Firewalk/Concord dev talks Marathon
My posts weren't meant to lead into a discussion of blacklists, so I don't understand why you'd think I'm obsessed with the idea. I do feel sometimes that if game devs had been more aware of the business aspect of the industry we wouldn't be facing the situation we're seeing today. We wouldn't have sold out to mega… -
Re: Modular roads with unique normal
Agreed. But to clarify a couple of things: Modular simply means that you can assemble a bigger object from smaller, often repeating or exchangeable meshes. Your road bits are still modular, and you wouldn't tile the texure, but repeat/switch your meshes. If you want a basic setup for a freely tiling texture (so not in… -

Re: All Gone - Abandoned Interior Environment (critique needed)
A good tip to bring more depth into the scene is to add some meshes for curling wallpaper and hanging ceiling plaster. Here's a good example from Metro for the ceiling. I guess for the wallpaper it's self explainatory, but if needed, in the volga level are some good examples to find. It's a few polygons more for an… -
Re: 3D Creation - Workflow Help.
That's a nice looking colour texture there. The normal map is clearly made via the Nvidia filter, but it does the job ok for a quick asset. Hard surface subdivision modelling is used instead of or alongside sculpting to make model parts that require a smooth surface with sharp edges. Examples are cars, robots, armour… -
Re: Comicon TOP 30 Announced
~ To clarify, I'm not shooting the models down. I'm saying that essentially they don't have the key things employers are looking for when hiring. I pretty much learnt 90% of what I know online as did many of you, and I followed by winning examples. If I were to follow the example of some of the entries in that first vote,…
