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

suggestions? Wire fence

any suggestions from anyone as to how to model a wire fence?


I'd like to share a revelation that I've had during my time here. It came to me when I tried to classify your species. I realized that you're not actually mammals. Every mammal on this planet instinctively develops a natural equilibrium with the surrounding environment, but you humans do not. You move to an area, and you multiply, and multiply, until every natural resource is consumed. The only way you can survive is to spread to another area. There is another organism on this planet that follows the same pattern. A virus. Human beings are a disease, a cancer of this planet, you are a plague, and we are the cure.

transparency map, white where the fence is and black where it isnt user added image map that onto a material and you should be fine. You could probably do it with maya's default nodes bulge I think it is might do it if you rotate it 45 degrees.

Twistedragon, yes please send it to me. I have tried a few approaches, but none are realistic enough, I am trying to build a walkthrough and they just don't look real enough close up. Thanks for the suggestions though guys user added image
