Re: What are considered good UVs?
Oh! If you're using Maya 2016, they brought unfold3d in as a plugin. It's an incredibly robust unwrapping algorithm, I was using the standalone program for years, and the past couple of months have been a dream. -
Re: Maya ambient occlusion render pass with alpha transparency?
