Complex UV Layout in Maya

Over the last couple of years UV layout in Maya has changed for the better. In this course we're going to be taking a look at some of those changes as we UV map an entire character

Am I right in thinking (looking at your avatar) that you have modeled a Dyson?

That's cool.

Looking good there. I use to have one but it broke so we got a little one. Nice attention to detail on it as well.

Tim, sounds like a great holiday. seeing as the thread seems a little chatty, I gotta ask about your tip about tearing the windows for the camera, do you know how many windows/ cameras you can tear off at any one time, for example, can I tear off two windows, camera 1 and camera 2 and still keep the 4 view?

are you still doing the destroyer, I can't see it anywhere? It was a hell of a job and great work.

take it easy and life will be easy

Yer I am still doing the destroyer but events have overtaken me im afraid.

I had my web site to make and try and chase up a programing friend of mine to do some Java for it.

Yesterday I got asked to do a weeks work experience in Molinare, London so that means I have to move back up to London for a week.

I also got sent a form by Jagex asking me to make 4 low poly models by Friday as the the next stage of an application I gave them

Exciting stuff. As for the tearing thing, you can do as many as you like. Just open the Persp / Outliner view. Change the outliner to whatever you like them tear off. Change it again to something different and tear off again. You can keep on going like this. But change the view before you tear off.

Hope that helps

Well I sure hope so. I could do with some good luck. Not at least I can start work on the Star Destroyer again.

Well I have two more shots for you before I pack my pc up and move of up to London for the week. I decided to make a start of the bit that was worrying me the most, the engines.
