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

Wireframe rendering

Does anybody have a mel script for rendering wireframe models, or know where i can source a working one? I've downloaded several now and none work, I'm still lagging behind using version 6.0. Cheers guys.

I've given up on finding one, as i would like to have the wireframe shown on my clay render and these do not allow this. And I'd sooner not have to render layers etc as i have no knowledge on this. I've decided to do basic vector renderings which work well enough i suppose. cheers anyhow

Why dont you UV map it invert the colours so the wires a re black and the spaces white, then apply that to the model as a texture and then render that?

You could do a simple automap to it.

I tried that, but wasn't happy with the quality even if i saved out the uv at 2048x2048, when applied the lines looked blurry. May give it another play, I lose my patience far too quickly lol.
