Re: New Silo Beta - new logo too
I think the real improvements to UV mapping will come during the 2.x cycle. The big hurdle was getting something in. I still don't use Silo for UV work yet as I'm quite happy with UVLayout for the most part. With the sculpt tools and the UV tools all going into this release they bit off a lot for just 2 people. It'll be… -
Re: Padding Script?
You could assign a texture with a 12pixel grid pattern to help the spacing. You could render to texture with a 12 padding, apply the result to your model, and display it in the unwrap. Then update the map with new rtt's as you go. It would not be as slick as UVlayout, but still manageable. I'm affraid a script would not be… -

Re: Character workflows?
It all really depends, you have to find what works for you, but to give you an idea of the workflow I found works well: 1) Reference gathering <--- very important! 2) Basemesh in 3DS Max (General, not worried about animation/UV topology) 3) Import into Zbrush and create high poly 4) import high poly into 3ds max and retopo… -

Re: [WIP] Old Arched house Environment
Thanks for the feedback @Noren! The head-on lighting is a really good point. I've been trying to boost the normal intensity to make up for the lighting setup but it turns out looking too weird, will play around with lighting and layout to get those surface details to pop more. I am going for a 'just rained' look for the… -
Re: PP-2000
Parallel with my Deagle project, i wanted to complete this too for my portfolio, so i remodeled some things and add details. Little by little I'm starting to build up my workflow...

Re: Knald - Master Thread
Divide the commercial license price by your work hour rate and ask yourself if Knald can save you that number of work hours. Looking at the work hours Knald has saved me in the long run, I'll have to disagree, the price is more than fair. It's like UVLayout in that regard, at first you have your doubts about the price,… -
Re: [Maya] UV unwrapping is a tangled mess and driving me mad
I've had issues several times with Maya's Unfold3d plugin misbehaving. After a bit of frustration, I switched to an application caleld UVlayout that plugs in to Maya and works like a charm. You can use a trial version free for like 90 days. It really makes UV's fast and easy. The only version of Maya that I have found to…
