Re: What is your preferred UV workflow?
Blender's native UV tools + TexTools addon. I pack my UV islands by hand, because I want to arrange and organize certain parts of an object to a same area of the UV space, logically, and with as world space aligned rotations as possible. An UV checker map with letters and arrows as a helper. -
What is up with Maya preserve uv's it never works?
Anyone know the magical criteria you have to have before Maya's preserve uv's will actually work, I'm constantly getting this annoying error. // Error: Unable to preserve UVs. Disable the Preserve UV option to continue with this edit. -
Re: UV'S Workflow
you probably should only UV something like a screw or wheel once then make duplicates of the geometry to place it in the scene. This would save time and make sure the UVs are standardized for all those models that are just copies of each other. If you were to make a texture variation for any of them, you start off with the… -
Creating a UV for tileable texture
Hi Polycount, I'm working on a bigger model at the moment (http://polycount.com/discussion/175397/raven-wh40k-imperial-fast-space-freighter) and want to use it to learn the use of weighted normals and tileable textures. To learn the process I took one of the engines of the ship and already did the wieghted normals. The… -
Mudbox Problem - Create UV's Ruins mesh
To keep this brief... It's my first time working in Mudbox, or sculpting altogether. My workflow, which is probably the source of my trouble, is as follows. I modeled a quick low poly mesh to block out the shape and scale of the objects I wanted to make. I didn't unwrap it's UV's. I brought it in to Mudbox, and sculpted… -
Wooden beams and planks without baking - Texturing / uv tip
Hi! I'm currently working on a scene that has some wooden props in it, and I wanted to approach it with just a tiling texture , and no baking because I thought it would look fine, and it would save me a lot of time. Also, they are just boxes. ;) Some of the results: This is the material I used on all of the wooden assets.… -
Update texture pixels when re-uv unwrapping
Hello everyone, I was wondering if there was a good way to accomplish the following. Let's say I already have a model uv unwrapped and textured. Then let's say I did a terrible job on the un unwrapping and I want to redo the uv unwrapping. Is there a way easily (with no loss in image quality) do the unwrap and have the… -
Baking normals outside of 0 to 1 UV space
I was wondering if there was a way to bake normals outside of the traditional 0 to 1 UV space. In maya I know you can take a UV snap shot out side of the 0 to 1 UV space but I cant seem to find a way to bake a normal outside of it -
Maya Texel Density keeps becoming uniform after I use Layout UVs
So I'm trying to layout all my UV's for my model. I have some uv shells that I went to be set at a texel density of 50, others at 75 and a few at 80. I've gone ahead and set specific ones at those levels and clicking get texel density shows that. However after I use UV Layout it's averaging them all at around 81 texel… -
Re: Broken Tower (WIP) Need help with planning the UV tilling layout!
Hi there again! First of all, @Earthyn has some really good points up there. One point that is not quite accurate is the pronouns: I am a woman and I use she/her pronouns. @sepxhan your UV map is looking good! Next time, are you able to take a screenshot of the UVs instead of taking a picture with your phone? It's kind of…
