[UE4] Don't Stay Up Late: Nighttime Street Scene WIP
Hello! With his permission, I've begun working on a small scene based off of a painting by Igor Piwowarczyk: I really enjoy his paintings and I especially like his use of color and light to create mood.

Color map + vertex lighting?
Hey geniuses! I'm using Maya 2011. I'm trying to figure out how to have a mesh with a 512x512 color map with vertex lighting info over the top of it. Does that make sense?
