Re: Two texture sheets to one character model
First off, you may want to symmetry you're model (specifically the body). It'll save some room and give more space for more detail resolution. Secondly, and I'm no pro character artist, but when there are two texture sheets, usually one is for the body and the other is for the face (and sometimes the hands). The face is… -
Two texture sheets to one character model
I'm making a character and we've been told to use 2x1024 for diffuse. So I made my UVs and the only once i started painting i realised i don't know how this is going to work. How can two texture sheets be used for just one model? Do i have to assign with multi/sub object or something? I have no idea what i'm meant to do… -
Re: Two texture sheets to one character model
Assigning multiple materials to character models (or any model) in a game is standard practice. Particularly in the case of characters. When mapping your objects, think of it as uvwmapping two different objects. Both maps should be in 0 - 1 space. In 3dStudio Max, this is achieved by assigning a multi-subobject material to… -
Re: Two texture sheets to one character model
What Nfrrtycomplx said pretty much sums it up, Map all your elements in two separate maps. Make One with all your body fleshy parts and you can give more pixel space to the things you think would need more details ( the face in particular). the other one with the rest of your character and every other thing that he might… -
Re: Two texture sheets to one character model
In maya you can assign shaders to individual polygons rather then the whole object, though its not recommended. This also imports fine into UDK providing you with two materials. -
Re: Two texture sheets to one character model
Sorry if this is going to sound stupid but does that mean that i should make EVERYTHING have a relative size, or just things for the same element. I know it probably isn't but it doesn't hurt to ask. It's more an issue of how will i assign the material to the element if the UV is on a different sheet. plus if i make them… -
Re: Two texture sheets to one character model
Just UV everything and make sure its all the right texel amount in relation to each other and just fit things the best you can on both sheets so that you are using the most space possible. -
Re: Two texture sheets to one character model
All you help is and will be incredibly helpful. I'm redoing my UVs now and will follow the advice you've all given and report back with the results. Thanks everyone.
