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

Sub-D distorting UV's
I once again need to call on your expertise and knowledge.
I've been working on the head of a character of mine, following Jason Edwards' DVD on GI Texturing and I've come up with something I'm quite happy with.
The problem arises when I convert the poly mesh to a sub-division surface. The grid texture that I've applied goes skewed and distorted in a few key areas. Jason said that he'd had this problem once before and about needing to add more loops?
If anyone could point me in the direction of a sollution I'd be most greatfull.
Many thanks people!
