Introduction to Maya - Rendering in Arnold
This course will look at the fundamentals of rendering in Arnold. We'll go through the different light types available, cameras, shaders, Arnold's render settings and finally how to split an image into render passes (AOV's), before we then reassemble it i

UV per faces (polygon) ?
i need UV large mesh which has polygons in square shape, all same size and shape (imagine block land or minecraft terrain), i need one polygon (quadpoly) = UV square i was doing this by plane Y/X/Z projection doing one-by-one face after face but its only solution for small part not for 4000 polygon terrain chunk.
so i wanted ask if i can somehow speed up this type of UV mapping (automated solution/script?) because i didnt see any option in maya for this. (or i missed that option?)
THX for help

If you are UV Mapping a standard cube then use the cube mapping option. I can't remember it's name but it's in the same options as cylindrical mapping etc...

Now I see your model I can see what you are trying to do. I would suggest that you create a single cube texture that then reference that cube as many times as you need it thne place the referenced cubes into the right place. Each reference would then be a duplicate of the original cube and take on the properties of the parent. Making everything easy and as they are reference objects little to no overhead in file size or render times
