3d paint tool
hello all,
attaching a link to image. http://img291.imageshack.us/i/53129349.jpg/ why doe my image show up in One UV plane while the uvs in another I am not able to use my 3d paint tool. can this be the reason for it? I get the below message when i try to. // Warning: Some surfaces have no file texture assigned to the current attribute. Please help Mahesh |
All UV's have to be in the 0-1 space to work correctly.

Maya is telling you to assign a texture so you can paint on it. There are attributes to do this under the paint tools ae, it says save texture etc and will ask for a file type and so on. The texture is then stored in your Maya project folder under 3dpaint textures

thanks gster, thanks jay
@jay: i have tried this tool before for covering the seams on a model using clone tool before and it worked fine. i am aware of the points that u have mentioned and i have tried those already but like what gster says the uvs should be in 0 to 1 plane. The uvs for the model which i have mentioned above was in 0 to 1 plane so thats why it worked. but this time i have modelled a human character with clothes and other acessories on. I uv mapped the head, body, clothes and shoes in seperate uv planes. This i did so that i get a better resolution for the head and body. Even when u save the polygon snapshots u have an option of defining the range area. another thing that i want to add is that the textures are getting placed properly for the head, body, clothes etc.. Its just the 3d paint tool. mahesh |
Just out of interest, are they sharing the same shader???
If so the 3dpaint tool wont work at all J |
for the body and a head i used a common shader but for all the clothes i have used a common shader since the uvs for all clothes are arranged in one uv range.
after ur reply i tried assigning a seperate shader for just one piece of clothing but its still the same, still not working. |
got it working guys.
got all the uvs in 0 to 1 plane as gster said. but i had to make a seperate uv set for head, body, clothes etc. thanks gster and thanks jay for your help. mahesh |
