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

Do you have maya unlimated coz some grass (fur) would look realy good on the ground.

Some comments:

You can use paintFX to draw some grass
The sun light's shadow color - make it a more bright blue but a dark tone CYAN)
Take the time to adjust textures using UV mapping - as it is now - textures are smeard.

Thanks for the inputs nirsul user added image

I've just been so busy lately with work and famile life (baby), but as soon as I can I will update the scene, and yes I have played around with the paint effect for the grass, when I get more done with it I will post a image here for you guys to look at. user added image

Also this scene takes up alot of ram so I hard to add more to the scene user added image

I have 1gb of ram, but windows use about 200mb, maya about 200mb, and the scene about 200+mb, so that lave me about 300mb of ram, and the randering sometimes for whatever reason will lave me with 040 to 015mb and sometimes maya will crash user added image

I think it's because of all those trees. user added image

How much ram you guys here running on you computer? Because 1gb of ram doesn't seem to be enough?

This is my rig:

it is enough in most cases

- Trees are indeed ram eaters - use 2D trees instead

Nice Pentium 4!

I have a AMD Athlon 2800+ xp, I think thats 2.25MHz?
And the video card is a RADEON 9200 series running on a ViewSonic G790 19 inch monitor.
1gb of ram.

I think I have a good enough computer to do most of my work, I just have to learn how to use maya better, like you said use 2d trees instead of 3d user added image

Most of the stuff there is good. some are repetitive and some are not although in the thumbnails they seem to.

the tiles collection is vbery good and very varied, woodfloor is not but woods are awesome.

the treelines is very very usefull for your scene and the trees are also very good and the price is very very cheap

I do suggest you take premium as you may download the ZIP files and not each file by itself (I did ....)
