A question about draw call performance when it comes to unique texture use
I was wondering what sort of hit on performance one would experience when using an atlas texture for many batched meshes, and then use the same texture for dynamic meshes. For example, say I have a 4096x4096 atlas texture that I have made for many static structures. I have some left-over texture space in this atlas to use… -
Texturing process: Materials
I have a few questions that have been bugging me for a while. As I progress to being or trying to become a "Game Artist". I have been making levels for a couple years now and thats all good and fine. I understand the process and the methods behind it. But as I get into the texturing side I have a few things I can't quite… -
Texture Atlases and MipMaps
Hi everyone, I've got some thoughts about texture atlases and game art, which I think can be best explained through a hypothetical example: I've got myself a texture atlas. On it I've got a bunch of assets that I want to reuse, including a few variations on let's say... a trash can. I've a got a fairly large scene set up… -
Asset texturing in Mudbox, issues
Related to asset creation - does anyone use Mudbox for texturing objects? I have a problem where projection painting using a 2k seamless texture map applies really low-res looking textures on my object, unless I re-create UV's at like 15 tiles, but then the problem lies where exporting the FBX to UE4 gives 15 materials… -

I've followed this post: http://www.polycount.com/forum/showpost.php?p=1006675&postcount=14 I know that post talks about setting up 3dsMax for Low Poly… -
Questions regarding texture maps
I am a student, aiming to be an environment artist in the game industry, and I already know I have a million things to learn. One thing in particular I am horrible at is texturing and unwrapping.

Texturing Large Cylinder Objects (modo)
Hello all, Is the tunnel just to big to texture or am I a complete noob ? No matter how hard I try to get this right, each method has an artefact that I cant resolve. I have tried uv mapping, solid, planar, cylindrical projection etc and I tried the texture replicator with no joy. Planar projection tiling works best but I… -
Most efficient strategies for texturing modular architecture assets?
Hey Polycount. I have been researching this topic for a while now, and I know that there are normally multiple ways to go about it. The context is that I'm practicing my modelling and texturing for non-stylized contemporary architecture assets, meant for a hypothetical fps game that has large open urban areas. By…
