"Is it possible to transfer a Maya (or Blender) rig directly into Unreal using FBX and keep the weighting?" That's kindof my point : by tackling a tiny portion first and taking it all the way down to the finish line (instead of doing a full character), you'll force yourself to run into this kind of question earlier than…
I propose Rexel Workflow when it comes to setting texel density while unwrapping. This workflow is for static images and is camera-dependent. Rexel is the final rendered pixel. Let’s say we have a scene with a vehicle model: an airplane with detailed objects and a few cameras, some distant for an overall view, but some for…

In fact most get abandoned and just end up an abandoned source forge entry. Blender works for the same reason the other 4 or 5 successful OSS projects work.…
