Re: Ork Trukk for UT3 (image heavy?)
It is in the advanced settings in the transfer maps tools in Maya. I don't know if Max has a similar setting. If you're using Maya, it makes a huge difference in the bake, and it's something I stumbled on by accident. Regarding bolts, what I mean is that if you take a piece into zbrush or mudbox, you don't need to import… -

Re: Sci-Fi Spaceship
Thanks @Olingova ~ The cockpit was one of the things I spent most time playing around with different designs, so I really appreciate the feedback on this :) The things on the front are supposed to be antennas, I had experimented with guns somewhere on the cockpit, but I couldn't get them to fit in a way I thought looked… -
