In this tutorial we take a look at the texture tag and it's projection types, and how we unwrap a simple box using pin points and edge cuts, then we look at how to unwrap a slightly more complex box shape.

Cinema 4d's UV functionality confused me for weeks. .. but I took a chance on this simple sounding tutorial... Sometimes we get lucky and run across someone that doesn't show off an amazingly expensive looking MICROphoness or over the top SUPER enthusiasm!!!!... He just has knowledge and then shares it for free!!! Thank you so much Mr. Meat.

[@danielecontinocreative]

HI, your tutorials are very explanatory. Would you ever make a substance for cinema 4d user tutorial?

[@TheRisingDzn]

The accent... ooooh yasss :D

[@mrtobycook]

Thanks for making this! But there is so much trial and error, it's very confusing :(

[@ignaciodemiranda3903]

Thank you man! Great tutorial! You really teach.

[@DIGITALMEAT]

cheers, although i always thought this tutorial wasn't that great, i actually use an external tool now for UV unwrapping kzbin.info/www/bejne/Z5vJgYxsmcZ4aMk

[@ignaciodemiranda3903]

It is good to learn with those that want to teach, and I thank you for that. Just starting here. Now with the "Awe3some reflections technics" :-)

[@raretrick]

Awesome tutorial. Cut down on the digressions and tangents and I'll subscribe!

[@DIGITALMEAT]

lolololol I know what what you're saying, this is a pretty old tutorial when i first started out, I've got a lot better since.

[@TrystFilms]

Thank you. I'm pretty young and new to this shit (16) but me and my friends are building and programming a game and we badly need to learn UV mapping so we can speed up the development process.

[@DIGITALMEAT]

+Tryst Films - To be fair, Cinema 4d doesn't have the best UV tools, you might find an external mapping tool to be quicker. If you are making a game you might like my other videos on Playmaker and Unity :D

[@TrystFilms]

DIGITAL MEAT i'll check them out

[@HalfLightStudios]

What external mapping tools would you recommend?

[@DIGITALMEAT]

i use unfold3d, it is very very good, check out my overview here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/Z5vJgYxsmcZ4aMk

[@mpm990]

Thanks, but the video is too long, go has the essentials

[@sicktit44]

You're right, I wouldn't eat that cube either ;)

[@MichaelNolhan]

25min of time I wont get back. Could have been shown in 10min or less.

[@bigrabbit5617]

What types of external mapping tools u suggest?

[@DIGITALMEAT]

I use Unfold3D, it's awesome, here's a link to a video i made about it kzbin.info/www/bejne/Z5vJgYxsmcZ4aMk

[@Tc558]

nice tutorial. do you have a cat?

[@DIGITALMEAT]

yes

[@keepshinein]

where is the link to the uv?

[@DIGITALMEAT]

+Dave Rickards - yeah sorry, i've added it to the description

[@keepshinein]

+DIGITAL MEAT thank you sir

[@lollyslifehacks5263]

2:16 | The cube is not what now? =P

[@DIGITALMEAT]

ha ha ha

[@greenymeista]

UV unwrapping.......there has to be a better and more efficient way!!?

[@DIGITALMEAT]

There is, it's called Rizom UV

[@greenymeista]

Nice 1 I’ll check it out. I also found 3D Coat yesterday...made it so much easier. It’s mad how C4D is the most intuitive 3D program but it’s just not got the uv process right yet

[@RosieSapphireMusic]

Why does the name "Digital Meat" sound like a porn site? AM I THE ONLY ONE!?

[@DIGITALMEAT]

Ha ha ha!

[@sicktit44]

Lol, the cube is not 'edible'... dear god.

[@tobiasobrien2382]

skewed uvs mean the texture will be skewed no matter what program you use to paint in! dreadful tutorial and you sound like you have no clue at all! avoid this man! lol
