[UV Mapping] What to do when "unfold" doesn't "behave" normally / as expected?
EZ all, I've started using Max again over the last couple of days because I've had some time on my hands finally. I haven't forgotten TOO much, but I just have a quick question about the "unfold" feature of the Unwrap UVW modifier. Usually the command works just as expected (if I can picture the UV's unfolding in my head,… -

That wouldn't be a problem at all, XSI was simply listed as an example. :) Can you show us some examples of your past work? -
Re: My works in Blender for 2025
Wow these are really cool! Love the stylization on these, and the mix of 3d and lighting with hand-painted details. I would love to see more thoughtful attention to variable line widths. You have some different widths, but each line is the same width along its length. Here's a nice example of how variable line weights… -
Re: Need help in baking related problem

Re: no games use coloured specular
Well you're right, my professional experience is all open-world stuff, so it's usually a question of 'does it even need a normal/spec map?' rather than whether it needs a color spec map or not. I do have a personal interest in this stuff though, and I try to keep myself up-to-date on what other people are doing. Always up… -
Re: Stereotypes in video games?
@Zwebbie I'm not planning to write about "stereotypes are bad blah blah", the aim of the paper is to show examples of stereotypes and the get the perspective views of gamers and designers and whether there is a reasoning behind the inclusion of these stereotypes and whether they effect the gamers outlook of the game. I… -
