Re: Looking for UV unwrapping/packing critique
You can weld the belt seams together and still have hard edged smoothing groups on them that are visible after baked. Smoothing groups and UV unwrapping do not influence one another. It's possible to have textures of rectangular shapes: 64 x 512, 1024 x 128 etc. and no redundant padding is required. This is absolutely… -
