Blender Lowpoly Modeling & Texturing

[@game_over5271]

This channel is very underrated

[@JayAnAm]

:-) Thx, well, share, tell, ... I think someday youtube will see;-)

[@SomeSickDingus]

Very good tutorial. I humbly want to add the concept that the squares of the texture can just be single pixels instead of 32x32 as you can set your islands to be much smaller than a pixel. This saves a bit on the file-size and video memory used by the texture.

[@andrewday7799]

This is so perfect I want to cry.

[@JayAnAm]

Oh no, please:-)

[@GPTDavid]

Thanks a lot for your hard work, wish you the best of luck on your youtube channel. It needs more recognition.. i'll see if i can share it around in some fb groups.

[@JayAnAm]

Alright, thx a lot!

[@DJPowerPaul]

Thank you for supporting my way a small step further.

[@alienkawala8287]

Thanks I figured out how to add the material with the UV wrap.

[@zikpin]

Thanks for a very simple solution

[@kevinhouse7143]

Cool technique Jay. Reminds me of the approach taken in voxel apps like Magicavoxel. Very simple but effective texturing.

[@JayAnAm]

Yes absolutely, for low poly it's THE technique. Thanks for your comment.

[@aljon5947]

Most underrated man on earth

[@JayAnAm]

Haha... ok, thx

[@julianarnold7992]

I'm following your advice on the color palette. I'm using a mix of Blender and ProBuilder (Unity). How do you set up the texture/material in Unity to match the Blender setup? Mine is getting stretched and maybe getting slightly wrong colors in Unity. I'm using the google material design palette. Also if you're interested, it would be really cool if you'd do a small series on ProBuilder/ProCore and how you approach it. I think lots of people will enjoy it.

[@cliveyoung6334]

Thanks for a great video that was very easy to understand.

[@moonlightblue9196]

Thank you this really helped :D I'm so excited to make low poly scenes now, once again thank you 👍🏻^_^

[@AyyyyyyyyyLmao]

Tutorials are better without music btw. Its easier to concentrate without some dramatic score going off in the background haha

[@CanalDojogames]

Thank you! i really wanted to know how make Shared Textures for Low poly Games

[@RetroGamingClashOfClans]

wait.... why do you have only 38k subs...… u should have like 3 million atleast

[@JayAnAm]

Exactly;-)

[@dxermanto]

Good video, you can add subtitles and close captions from youtube community

[@JayAnAm]

Thx a lot man

[@KezzBracey]

Perfect timing as I just decided today to do some low poly stuff in Blender. I LOVE this technique, thanks! Question - what addon are you using for that wheel to select the edit mode please?

[@JayAnAm]

It's the Pie Menu, it is shipped with Blender.

[@KezzBracey]

Jay AnAm oh cool, thank you!

[@Hklmfd]

Where can i get the color like you?

[@JayAnAm]

Hi, the link is added to the description

[@BryanMinnix]

Brilliant!

[@JayAnAm]

Wow... thank you, man!

[@thehobbyistHB]

Is there a reason why you used texturing instead of adding Diffuse Materials?

[@JayAnAm]

Yes, the more materials you have, the more drawcalls you have, the worse the performance will be in your game. This is why I want to use just one material for all objects.

[@JayAnAm]

[@thehobbyistHB]

Ah ok! didn't look at it from the game point of view ;-)

[@JayAnAm]

ok, yeah this is always my focus as gamedev:-)

[@zachroberts3444]

wonderful tutorial! just curious on the uv'ing, it seems like you just kind of stack and significantly shrink the uv's does this not have any effects on lightmap in a game engine like ue4?

[@JayAnAm]

When baking lights you need to increase the lightmap resolution, great that you mentioned this, I will point this out in one of my next tutorials.

[@digitaldope6247]

is there a reason you don't just add a colored material for each object?

[@JayAnAm]

Yes, I want to use the models in a games (e.g. mobile games) and each materail you add results in one more drawcall in your game (-> bad performance)

[@guerrymonero]

Excelente, muchas gracias!

[@JayAnAm]

Con mucho gusto!

[@influency4075]

In blender, I dont see the UVs on the texture. I can only see dots on colors. I bought my models from syntystore. Help :D

[@haizey5691]

So Nice Video ... Liked... Subscribed But one doubt how to see Texture n Movement down as in video Right bottom

[@JayAnAm]

You have to set the render preview of the window to Rendered

[@haizey5691]

Jayanam thankx a Lot Ur A Nice Person

[@fatihyilmaz5722]

why not just go for 1 color per pixel? wouldnt it be much more efficient? dont know how blender deals with it though..

[@aljon5947]

please explain more how to do the texturing because I dont know what to do. I just made a picture with color squares

[@xbgt4022]

I have no idea why, but that method with texturing is not working for me. I render in cycles, I added material and texture but when I make U > Unwrap, then scale it to the single color, nothing happens.

[@xbgt4022]

Ok now it's working, I had to change color to Texture Image in material.

[@JayAnAm]

Exactly, great you found it. Here is my new one on low poly texturing for isometric design: kzbin.info/www/bejne/fl6bqGykrcuAfac

[@xbgt4022]

Yes, I'm planning to watch it!

[@juanparamio7002]

ilumination used???

[@theloafdude8304]

Just drop the music please. Good video though!

[@addisonwarner]

Good video but the disney music is driving me mad

[@JayAnAm]

Yes you're right, I also find it annoying now:-) But I didnt use it in future tutorials.

[@haizey5691]

If I ask Some more doubt will u feel annoying?

[@JayAnAm]

Haha... not at all, go ahead:-)

[@haizey5691]

Jayanam thankx Is there any where we can talk Personal? Whataap? facebook

[@JayAnAm]

You can send me a message to my facebook account, but I dont have much time for personal talk, sorry.

[@haizey5691]

Jayanam Great

[@vojka2973]

sir ?? how did u get that premade texture pixesl 32x32 in uv editing ? PLS ?

[@JayAnAm]

I painted it. You can use MS paint, Gimp, Krita... and just a brush with a pixel size of (in my case) 16 px

[@vojka2973]

@@JayAnAm Ty!!!

[@jairusdaniel9747]

Hi , i exported my model as fbx file And saved the texture image after finishing puting the faces to the colors I want in the image, but when I try to Put it in unity the texture don't go to the right place in my model I don't know how fix it :(

[@Teabone3]

Are the tree leaves all just 1 color grade. Or were some of the faces changed to different tones of green? (out of the 3 on the palette)

[@JayAnAm]

Yes, it is just one green color, the rest is shading and shadows.

[@FerdieSwinkels]

This is amazingly helpful. Thank you very for your videos!

[@JayAnAm]

Hey thx a lot!

[@fhillypeleal2057]

hey... I have a very especific problem... I need to import this model, as an .obj, with this texture (i tried a lot of times, but still being awful)... Someone knows how can I do this??

[@jacobtevenal4183]

Talk about quick and to the point. I’ve been trying to color my low poly merman model for days now. Here I go spending 5 minutes on a random video and I learn more than half hour clips. Great shit man.

[@olivierparisy4918]

Very nice coloring trick! Now, would that way of unwrapping be compatible with, say, baking some AO (in another image perhaps)?

[@BrickEmpireSimulator]

What do you jabe to type in google to get the colour thing

[@benjamingilespinosa7303]

just wondering how did you get the circles on his cursor and he has a mouse wheel selection, where do i find it?

[@Lucas-wp1ju]

Why don't you use a texture with squares of 1 pixel ? Isn't it optimal ?

[@justlearning8667]

I just wanted to know if u can put like decals or art in one single mesh

[@NadineCallan]

Awesome! Thanks I was wondering how to do this.

[@hseshorty5432]

it helped me SUBSCRIBED

[@JayAnAm]

Hey great, thx!

[@WaddleQwacker]

what program do you use to show keys and mouse actions please ?

[@JayAnAm]

It is the screencast keys addon

[@WaddleQwacker]

I have it but it doesn't look like in your video.

[@JayAnAm]

I think I am using this one here: github.com/jedihe/b3d_screencast_keys

[@WaddleQwacker]

Thank you ! :D

[@thanajon]

Sorry to comment on an old video, but I have been using this process to texture for a while and came across an issue (I think). If I am in edit mode and I add a mesh to my model, I can't UV Unwrap / Reset the UVs. In the UV/Image Editor window pane, the UVs are white instead of orange, and I cannot resize or move them over the texture. I'm super new to blender so maybe this is just how things are, but if you have a solution to this I would love to hear it. Right now I just add new pieces in Object mode to avoid this problem. Thanks!

[@JayAnAm]

Is the mesh a new object that you add in object mode? If so, you first have to assign the material to new object, then go to edit mode and Reset the UVs for this.

[@thanajon]

No, this is a new mesh that I add with shift-a while in edit mode. i.imgur.com/EeP7HOY.png If you look at the bottom right panel, that's my UV/Image Editor with a simple texture. The small orange pieces are the main model, the white square around the whole texture is the UVs for the added cube. I want to resize and move UVs like the others, but I can't. I guess the way around this is just add meshes in object mode.

[@user-je6fd4tm6c]

you ar german ?

[@JayAnAm]

Yes.

[@user-je6fd4tm6c]

Jayanam oh cool ich auch :)
