Texture on animated models
I've created a human head. I will animate elements of the head i.e. binking, expressions, lip sync etc.
How do you go about creating a texture for a model where the individual vertices (and hence UV's) will be transformed into new positions?
Surely ifyouI texture before animating the UV's will screw up and thus the position of the texture.
But animating first will surely create problems. For instance, an eye blinking would require a texture for open and closed. And also in betweens.
This is a puzzle to me.
Can somebody advise me please.
Thanks,
Forlax.
I used to be indecisive, but now I'm not so sure.

As for eyelids, I believe you don't --texture-- that, you just create a thin skin of geometry over the eyes and animate that. (And I just check in "The Game Artist's Guide to Maya" from MtMcKinley and it aparently says the same thing)
Keep note I haven't actually done anything human yet... so someone else may want to jump in.
