Interview with Thiago Klafke about modularity

The title is "the use of modularity in the making of game environments" and in the process of that I have contacted Thiago Klafke (better known as Minotaur0) to answer some questions about his modularity and his recent tutorial. Thiago suggested… -
UV Unwrapping In Sub-D Workflow Questions
Hi guys, what should I do in this scenario for UV mapping? Say the model is being made for production, not games. Should I UV unwrap the high poly and texture it directly? I ask because in this case the shape of the low poly drastically differs from the high poly. And more in general I'd also like to know how UV unwrapping… -
[MaxScript] Polygon to mesh projection
Hi. Does anyone know how to do it? Lets say I have a flat concave/convex polygon with N vertexes and I would like to project it on the surface of a mesh along some direction vector. Basically like a decal or imprint in pro-boolean. The result mesh should have the topology of the mesh on which proijection was done. Example… -

Re: Question about SubD modeling and Game Assets
Hi! I think Subd modeling is an important skill to have. It's relevancy for a task depends on the specifics, one consideration being iteration speed/flexibility. For an organic subject, sculpting might be a more fitting way to control the vertices (however Subd modeling might be used for creating the base). Aside from the… -
