Hi i use blender for 3d i want to switch to maya is it good decision? Or can tou upload tutorial on maya it would be helpful

[@jashanhayer1046]

I can watch your videos for hours. Never bores me. Very informative and helpful. Thanks a lot and there goes the like you deserve, just like that, boom 😉

[@OnMars3D]

Thank you, I appreciate it!

[@AlexTsekot]

In general it is bad practice to just leave your cylindrical shapes in a weird bent shape. You should always unfold cylyndrical shapes in a straight line wherever possible. With wheels and tires this is important to make texturing a lot easier, and gives you more texel density. Please don't leave your unwraps all bent out of shape. For wheels specifically use cylindrical mapping under the UV dropdown and afterwards place the seam where it needs to be if its not correct, then use Unfold U or Unfold V to unfold only in one direction.

[@Bulborb1]

Thank you, I use follow active quads in Blender to get my cylinder strips, it's super effective especially for objects when texturing first ie using a trim sheet.

[@lockenessmotorsports818]

You must read my mind lol another great video. You are by far my fav 3d content creator on youtube keep up the great work!

[@xene9965]

Thank you!

[@MrGuardian1993]

Thank you so much for the Clip. This is exactly what i need to learn :)

[@sculptre]

Simply insane amounts of useful information in this channel! Thank you very much, man.

[@OnMars3D]

Happy to help!

[@unknownuser3000]

I've been struggling learning modeling in blender, with things like uvs in particular. You're tempting me to just start fresh learning Maya with how good your tutorials are. I know Blender is easier but it seems Maya is the best solution for 3d modeling.

[@OnMars3D]

Keep watching because I have some Blender tutorials in the works!

[@hashirakuz4753]

Can't thanku enough sir really needed this one 🙏🏻

[@infinitea4258]

Such awesome stuff, thank you!

[@ronydey2696]

Great tutorial over UVW Mapping..please also on hypershadde and materials textures class over maya sir ...please sir because you really explains very good sir..Hi sir myself Rony an VFX CG student from India

Not even one comment on that stunning Fairlady, I despair for the world

[@OnMars3D]

It's one of my favorite cars, I have a whole series on how to model the 240z.

[@grandaddyjesus]

I was just working on a custom character and trying to work on the UV's your timing couldn't be any better. Will be returning to this very soon for full viewing. Thank you for the content.

[@OnMars3D]

I love when that happens, happy to help!

[@PeterSatera]

Since you said about adding comments on UV workflow. I find once you flip on the -1 axis when duplicating an object, the quickest way is not necessary to unfold again and rotate, but simply flip the UV, that way both UV's are identical mirrors too.

[@xXMABSHREDXx]

One question I have is how do you prevent artifacts in substance painter after baking. I get these horrible dark low resolution edges on my models

[@mikerusby]

re the back part of the car, i would split it down the middle, then each half would map with less distortion generally in blender I lay them out either side of the mirror centre then apply a mirror, with x on the data turned on

[@mohamednasser2230]

Thank you so much I appreciate your time to share with us ur knowledge, you explained it in an easy way more than I expected, I have always struggled with UV mapping but here we go I will try to follow your UV mapping work flow and hope to do well

[@OnMars3D]

You're very welcome!

[@nihanmaleri2422]

I learned many things, thank you so much 💪

[@bigmosquito3256]

does uv tile affect the scale and quality resolution of the texture? fe. i am making blocks of metal, if i make one block in one uv tile, will it show better quality then if I make several blocks in one uv tile?

[@farazfiction]

Hi . Your channel is amazing. I work on maya and wanted to see a good tutorial channel for maya and here we are. Thank you so much.

[@OnMars3D]

Glad you found your way here!

[@Voided4rt]

Man these tutorials are so helpful

[@oscarcampbellhobson]

Swear to god whoever designed uvs didn’t try their system cos it sucks

Can you make the same video using 3ds Max for us, please

[@serwizzart]

Dude, your teaching is waaay better than the school I paid 10k for. Please never stop teaching, you are GREAT! much love from austria man :)

[@OnMars3D]

Appreciate it, glad you found this helpful!

[@imleozx2808]

do we have to straighten Uv after unfold .. u didn't mention that in the video .. plz clear my doubt,, IS unfold is enough?

[@OnMars3D]

The UVs do not need to be perfectly flat unless you need perfect tiling for a specific pattern. If you do, then this video will help you learn how to unwrap your UVs so they are perfectly flat: kzbin.info/www/bejne/q5vcqaenmMmcgq8

[@deepanshukasania5011]

great video . very helpfull

[@purple-gw2vm]

Really helpful, I was doing uv mapping with just some research while doing it, but now that I have seen the whole video I think I know much more about it!!

[@OnMars3D]

Glad you found it helpful!

[@sugumaran6364]

Can anyone tell where we get model like this for free...

[@hashirakuz4753]

Can u plz make a tutorial how to do all the texture like car paint tire colour and headlights how to light them in renders

[@OnMars3D]

Coming this weekend!

[@livefornow6927]

Nice tutorial~ Thanks

[@AlexTsekot]

I strongly recommend the following scripts for UVS: UV toolbox by Malcolm 341 PolyRaven UV Tools Straighten Quads UV by Nick Barre Spend the money, you won't be dissapointed

[@DaJet]

wait this is not doom play through

[@FatihTopuz]

Gosh, this custom checker map technique is much better than that default boring checker map! With it, it's much easier to fix texel densities across the model! Thanks for this whole amazing tutorial.

[@hardikvaland9102]

Thats a really good tutorial❤❤

[@mihirm3632]

you should launch your tutorial courses already! you are giving away too much good information for free. Thanks for the courses

@@OnMars3D Thank you sir!

[@surajbist999]

I have made a buggy, but after cutting it and unfolding it the squares on the uv are stretching. Why does it happen?

[@surajbist999]

Do I have to manually strech my uv shells to make it square shapes?

[@edwinjose8888]

All of ur classes are great. Learned a lot of things. Thanks for that. It would be much more helpfull if you make a video on rigging this car. Ry looking forward for it. 😇👍

[@hglankshear]

Using the 3D cut and sew tool right now, uv mapping a Roman Bireme Ship and damn it feels so much more cathartic than working in the UV editor ahahahah.

[@apoorvchitransh7541]

your tutorials are amazing and very well explained... can you make a tutorial on how to rig a car? this is something that I cannot find anywhere

[@ArashSeisan]

Is it possible for you to run aerodynamic drag on this car or if possible share the file :)

[@OnMars3D]

The model is available for purchase. It's not modeled off CAD but give you good results to test aero sims.

[@RazorThat]

Does the same information that I learned from here apply to any 3D software, such as Blender?

[@dhabasushivakumar6118]

Greatest tutor, very informative, very helpful You are my virtual Master. Thank you Sir

[@mamtapatil1892]

Hello sir, when should we do uv i mean i have modelled car according to smooth preview but now my question is when should i do uv, should i do uvunwrap in smooth preview or should i first apply smooth to every thing and then do uv. But when i do uvs in smooth preview without applying smooth to everything than it leads to uv distortion and everything gets red in uv distortion, please tell me what to do

[@OnMars3D]

There should be no issue when UV mapping before the low poly. You just need to make sure to enable "smooth UVs" in the settings.

[@mamtapatil1892]

@@OnMars3D Thank you sir, i will definitely follow it

[@quimmartingolf9163]

How do you export that model with the uv cheker on?

I just applied a checker box texture to the material.

You are the best teacher I have ever seen. I knew nothing about UV mapping for almost one and a half years before watching these videos. But when I watched these videos I found them very helpful for both beginners and experts. Thanks a lot, sir for your services

[@pritpalnita]

thanks bro

[@pikachufan25]

Finnalley a indepth Tutorial explaining uv's :D most of the tutorials i have seen are just put seams here and Done!. without going in-depth like you did you explain to me at least the most Basic Stuff that i need to understand to export Good Stuff. and yes I'm a blender user. and most of these thing (if not all) can Translatated in blender. just in blender have different Nammings. which is gonna be the hard part ;-;.

That's the plan! All I ask is to share this content with anyone looking to learn 3D Art :)

[@leatherslipper3017]

may I ask what are your unfold parameters? because most of the times when I try to unfold something, even the easiest mesh, the result is really bad (the seams I do are correct, in fact on 3dsmax I have no problem making UVs with the pelt map) Thanks in advance

[@OnMars3D]

I just use the default settings. Make sure you double check your plugin settings, 'Unfold3D' should be enabled in the plugins if not, it will use the legacy Unfold settings which doesn't work nearly as well.
