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

How is the lighting done in this scene? Looks like GI?

It is done in Maya 5 for Linux w/ Final Gather Rays set to 500 and the GI set to 64
(basically final gather preview but the FG rays halved)
There are lamps in each corner emitting differnent color lspot lights and on the ceiling there are 2 hole extruded and deleted w/ a greyish white spotlight shining down. (Raytraced shadows enabled for the 2 top ones.)
I'll post a pic soon of a different angle so you can see it all better.

I was going to say what Mike said user added image

But a little C+C... in the bottom image, the left chair appears to be floating... And the top image. What's that ray of light (??) going under the table to the left?

But ... very nice user added image

Really creative idea!

whatever!

yeah i know the chair is floating... i fixed that yesterday- (those are old pics) basically this was a summer project and all of the other stuff ive done lately is going to be put into that room.
check out my site: 00patrick00.tk for some stuff i am going to put in it in the next week before school starts.
The main thing i am going to do is have the attached character duplicated 3x
1. sitting
2. climbing the stairs.
3. Sitting on the stool looking at the computer w/ a cord (bioport) streaching from one of the center holes to the back of the computer.
I am then going to do a flythough and call it 'still life'

well- now all I have to do is hit render on the flythrough
here is a bad angle of the guy infront of the computer- btw its just the angle his shoulder blades arent that skewed.
i'll try and post the finished animation in DIVX fomat sometime- hosted from my server.
sorry if anyone tried to get onto my server last night- Michigan and the surrounding areas had a massive power failure.
