Unfortunately the files provided in the solidangle learning area https://support.solidangle.com/display/AFMUG/Learning+Scenes do not look like… -
Re: How to lower poly count around edges of this object?
Hm, looks like a sub-d model. In that case, no need to overly optimise as long the desired shading is achieved. Maybe you find fitting examples in this thread: https://polycount.com/discussion/56014/how-the-f-do-i-model-this-reply-for-help-with-specific-shapes-post-attempt-before-asking/p176 or in the wiki… -
Re: Need help with topology.
There are plenty of great examples of gameboy models and topology. Check these out and see what they do and try to figure out why (also in a pinch, heading to the "How the F do i model this!?" thread and skimming through will help you understand the fundamentals behind why folks are doing the things they're doing. special… -

Re: Automate the UV Mapping Process
I've found my unwraps go a lot faster if I plan it while modeling. For instance, if there is a hard panel cut or sharp surface change, rather than just having 2 connected edges you can disconnect them and phase the edges through each other the UV "seam" is an inherent part of the mesh itself. Then I can just drop each… -
