Anyone know of a way to find any missing unwrapped bits? I think I've got them all but want to make sure..

All I do is select all the mesh with the UV Editor opened and If a part of the mesh or a polygon is not uved appears very weird.

I've been struggling with this for a while now and can't seem to find ANY tutorials..

I've baked my normal map within blender and can't figure out how to apply the damn thing to the model to test it out, right now it appears as a texture.. Any ideas? Or links to tutorials? Thanks :D

Don't Skype but maybe steam? Will be on in an hour or two.. Would be great thanks!

Marmoset Tool Bag 2 is a cool program to view a model in a video-game like engine without having to setup a render or using the shitty view port visuals.

That's what I used for viewing my progress on my Honda before I had it in the game engine.

Wow that's looking great! Feel free to post as many pics as you want damo, this is intended to be a very open build ;)

Last night I just about finished unwrapping the parts template as individual pieces, and stitched it together in gimp. Fixed a couple of errors but noticed a couple more when I applied it. Was too late to screenshot but aside from two or three pieces it looked perfect!

Thank you very much for streaming your workflow doing this so I was able to do the same  :)

:o :o :o

Very nice Damo and Fats.

If you need help with geom and gearbox etc... just tell me...It would be sad to don't have a good geometry and engine....like happened with the rmz. A great model but a bad geom.

Thanks Paco, I was going to do my best to get it in game myself.. If it all goes horribly wrong I'll be sure to give you a shout.. Or RC if you're not on (sorry RC :D)

Coming along, that's normals and occlusion baked, and best part of textures done for the desirable skinning stuff template, now for the rest of the crap  ;D

Thanks man, have a good honeymoon!
Oh man! Wa8t till I get home and process the GoPro footage of us hitting the dunes in a Polaris 800 4-seater. I'll save the punchline for then.

This is probably a question for Snappe although anyone who knows! Pretty stuck.

I've split my mesh pieces, joined them with the MXB Blender template pieces as they should be, now all I need to do is move the empty parent's origins to match my objects, but I can't seem to do that without moving the object itself..

How do I move say in this case 'gear_lever', without moving 'gear_lever_pivot'?


𝖙𝖋𝖈

Never mind, think I've figured it out.

If I select the mesh I want to move and copy it's global location I can then move the empty parent, rotate it how it needs to be, then edit the child mesh, rotate it back and manually type back in the coordinates.

Pain in the bum! ;D
