Re: Can you use 2:1 uv map/texture in CE3?
well then i correct myself. I thought the preview showed the actual texture shape.. Currently im just confused about what the actual distinction between 2:1 and 1:1 is. As far as i know the UV space in max is ALWAYS 1:1, so if you "cheat" and squish your UV's in to (0.5, 1) scale, the map would still effectively be 1:1,… -

Yes indeed. You should avoid 2:1. It's all a bit tabu really, no one can really answer that question correctly, not even coders themselves, but indeed that memory allocation buffers don't like 2:1 textures too much, so all in all, I would avoid it. And really, I only know of a couple exceptions where a 2:1 unwrap is more… -

I think there is the same issue with baking in 3DS Max, think I read that you can bake something like 2:1, but in reality it will render a 2:2 and then output a 2:1. So it 'waste' time/resources to render something you don't need. Better to just make a 1:1 map, maybe pack two models texture into the sheet. -
Re: Can you use 2:1 uv map/texture in CE3?
well one example of efficient use for 2:1 maps was when i baked a sword. The sword blade was quite long, and there was little else on the sword. Theres no way i could have reasonably filled the rest of the UV space with just the hilt. I actually used a 1:4 map for that if i recall correctly.. -
Can you use 2:1 uv map/texture in CE3?
just that simple question :) -
Re: Can you use 2:1 uv map/texture in CE3?
Nah. I chcked it on model, and it worked fine. I use 2:1 pretty often for tileable textures. -
Re: Can you use 2:1 uv map/texture in CE3?
You cant have 2:1 textures in Cryengine 3. When you export a texture that is not a square, the exporter makes it in to a square. -
Re: Can you use 2:1 uv map/texture in CE3?
Impossible. I chcked and they were 2:1 (after export). Well that's funny, everyone is claiming completly oppisite things in this thread and nobody aggree with anybody :D -
Re: Can you use 2:1 uv map/texture in CE3?
yeah i did a few tests myself and seem that n:1 textures are totally useable in cryengine. I didnt find a way to measure the performance hit though, so i dunno if its actually worth using em. -

Nothing performance-wise on PC. Or if something, it is so close to nothing it is nothing.
