Re: Learning a new skill - is this what would help me?
Kevin Hudson's Gnomon UV 101 and Advanced UV Layout are awesome. Both really go in depth into understanding UVs and how/why/when to use what tool. That being said, the videos don't focus specifically on games...so if you are an advanced Maya user, I would recommend Eat 3D's DVD - Maya and 3DS Max (someone correct me if I'm… -
Re: Learning a new skill - is this what would help me?
Yep, and their Next Gen Texturing Techniques is about as in-depth as a texturing tutorial can get. It's pure awesome and I'd suggest purchasing it asap if you're looking for a texturing based tutorial series. -
Learning a new skill - is this what would help me?
I'm trying hard to learn to UV in Maya. It's hard. Really hard. Anyways I'm thinking of buying a video tutorial and just learning that way, it was helpful in the past when I made the UMP45, following a video tutorial. I was looking at this, http://www.thegnomonworkshop.com/store/product/570/UV-Mapping-101 I'm really… -

If anyone from Gnomon or Eat3d or 3dmotive read this: Please make a tutorial of uvmapping and making a modular environment. -
Re: Learning a new skill - is this what would help me?
nvm my last ignorant post. I found dynamite tutorial on house modeling+UV+texturing. All steps included. Now I just have to knuckle down and follow along. -
Re: Learning a new skill - is this what would help me?
Well I can't download and transfer my videos on DT which is fucking horseshit. So that's a no-go at this time. My Lynda tutorials were useless, not at all what I wanted. If this gnomonworkshop thing doesn't pull through I'm pretty much fucked I think. It sucks when you have 2 backup plans and they all fail. -
Re: Learning a new skill - is this what would help me?
If you are not locked into only using Maya, I would suggest eat3d videos like Next Gen Texture techniques or the Old Damaged Pillar vid for great workflows with textures and uvs. Again, if you can try different software, the eat3d 3Ds Max 101 DVD covers all kinds of 3d program goodness (21 hours full). Eat3d! but. . .if… -
Re: Learning a new skill - is this what would help me?
I'm looking into something like this as well, not sure what I'd like to get as far as a subscription goes however.. I'm in-between Gnomon and Digital Tutors, I love Gnomon but it's annual as opposed to Digital Tutors which can be Monthly. But for the quality, does anyone have any opinions? -
Re: Learning a new skill - is this what would help me?
That's what I was afraid of, I went through Digital Tutor's site, looked over a few videos and was a little disappointed. I don't necessarily need to get to know the tools, I'm really more interested in the advanced workflows that Gnomon provide, but Digital Tutors seemed very interesting for the price. I think I'll suck… -
Re: Learning a new skill - is this what would help me?
Very very true. I love Gnomon's DVD's, it gives a great insight into the way the pro's do it. But I must admit when I was a complete beginner, and for the first 6 months or so I watched a few and thought 'well these are crap, I'm just watching some dude work in a time lapse at like double speed. However I go back and watch…
