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

lighting problem
I have a light coming from behind the character, but it lights up not only the back of the character, but every part of the geometry, no matter what is blocking it. For example, light is coming out of the inside of the mouth and the nostrils. Thank you to anyone than can help on this matter.. (I am using mental ray)

If a light doesn't cast shadows then it doesn't know which parts of the mode are in shadow and which are illuminated. So it illuminates everything.
