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

From what I've noticed with lights so far, they don't look exactly like in Viewport when rendered. Unless you check the option to see shadows on it. If you want the light to look exactly like in viewport, you could direct the light source towards the surface of the mesh so that it shines that way and the emitted shadows don't go all over the mesh.Hi All,

If that's not the problem and the light is pointed at it, increase the light's shine.

Just use HQ rendering in viewport to see the exact quality. I think you have to rely on this one to see what it will look like in rendering. Other than that, I don't know what to do if it still won't render the same.Cheers SilverFeather, the light are ambient not spots. I'll give it a go just turning them up a bit. is there a way to se what your getting without rendering out? i know about 6&7 toggling views but is there a better more trustworthy way?
