I've created a shading solution for Unity similar to Dota 2 : Game Shaders Volume 1 - Dota 2 I am currently working on shaders for static lightmapped objects and I need assets for testing purpose. I thought about using the Dota 2 map or at least a part of it. But I don't want to spend to much time at creating it again…
Title says it all, I would like to use designer to process some terrain height map (they usually comes in non-power-of-2 size, such as 1081x1081), and game engine like Unreal also expect the map to be non-power-of-2 (such as 1009x1009). So I attempts to procedurally preprocess these height map then resize them to Unreal…

It internally even if the texture is 1:2 with bitmap size set to reflect a rectangular area still places the planar maps as though the texture area was "square"/1:1. In short, it will stretch the uvw layout across. Which then if you use to texture…
Okay, just learning Maya 2010 (coming from Silo), so hopefully this is much easier than the software has shown it to be thusfar: I create a 6-sided polycube (no extra loops), select 2 border verts and can't figure out how to create an edge between them. What's the magic Maya terminology to do this? In Silo, I just select 2…

not sure if this is easy or I'm going to need some kind of script- basically I have 2 maya files, each with a group/parent structure set up with identical groups and naming, and each group has various objects underneath them. I want to merge the files, so if both files have a group 'bolts' and underneath that lots of…
