Re: Straight-Edge UV seams
can someone show me an example of what you guys are talking about here? I think it's what I'm thinking but I could be wrong.

I have checked the internet several times for a program that can split my PSD file into tga files, but all I could find were slow scripts or not easy to use. So I figured it would be time to write one myself. The… -
[UE4] Need some Blueprint help - Making a fence that deforms to terrain
Hey guys, hopefully some of the more tech artist minded people here can help out with this one. I'm trying to make a procedural fence I can use for one of my projects.
