The cost of a texture "draw call"? (Quantity vs Resolution)
Hello. So as a 3D artist it's important to know what the performance impact of my choices are going to be in-game. I don't work for a massive triple-A company who's been doing game art for 20 years which knows the secret to performance, and since google doesn't turn anything up of value I'm left with the question: What is… -
Bend Texture Stretching
Hi all, I am using bend modifier on flat pieces as its fast and easy for texturing and modular workflow. However I just came across this texture squashing / stretching issue on curved surfaces when pushed to extreme curves, such as sharp U turns shown in picture.

Painter Tiling Texture
Hey guys. So I'm a little unsure of exactly how to explain my question so I apologize for any confusion in advance.

Bleeding your textures past UV borders
I am using 3dsmax's Render to texture to transfer Normal, Diffuse, Spec and lighting maps from my detail mesh to my render mesh.

Texturing has always been my weakest point. I've been reading articles related to texturing and have often found them saying "try to avoid using photos when you're texturing" now.. All I've done up to this point had been texturing with photos and using clone stamps with healing brushes and overlay layers with grunge etc.… -

Blender 2.79: Getting All Pixels From All Textures?
Hello, everyone. The title is pretty self-explanatory. There isn't much more to be said than that. I'm trying to write a script to get every pixel from every texture applied to a model in Blender 2.79. I've found a URL that is already leading me in the right… -
Sketchfab texture blending
Question about environments for sketchfab. Has anyone found of a way to deal with the lack of texture blending functionality? I wanted to use tiling textures and blend them for a project but that's a no go. Is there an alternative besides going for a unique texture? What i planned on doing was making a sort of trim for the… -
Re: Want to learn to texture:)
Just to reiterate : this one is definitely something you want to pay attention to http://itchstudios.com/psg/art_tut.htm Yeah it's about drawing and painting - but if you really want to understand how lights affects objects (aka 'texture') this is what you need to know. That does not mean that you have to paint a texture…
