Thank you SO MUCH, Michael! You're such a gifted teacher! I watched every single tutorial on UVs I could find and your presentation was the only one making sense :) If you ever have time and desire, can you please create a tutorial about shader maps in Maya? Would be a nice complimentary video to this tutorial... Thanks again!

[@MarieKerns]

Thank you...I couldn't find the 'unfold' option, but after seeing this, I can manually unfold my UVs :D

1:20:00) Viewing mode to See UV distortion 1:23:30) Different modes to see the model THis one is a see through mode for when polys overlap 1:20:45) Move Around/Smudge Tool 1:22:05) Smooth Tool - Use the Smudge tool to move the areas around the eyes outward so you ahve space to smooth the eyes 1:23:42) Can also select specific vertices you want to relax and then relax only those vertices if you want more control than just the smooth brush 1:24:20) Cutting mouthbag and up 2 here

Thanks Pao! I'm curious what other sorts of tutorials would you be interested in seeing?

[@willie3116]

Great tutorial, straight to the point!

Great tutorial! My knowledge has improved more for UV mapping. Thanks! Good stuff.

[@alistairskalldor3196]

Still very intensive work to learn and understand it all (as a beginner in maya) but your tutorial helped a lot! Thanks!

[@rickybansal9465]

Great Video! Thank you. It would be great if you could add a similar video for shading and texturing in Maya.

thanks!

[@improvementTime10.3.17]

23:07 How did he select those vertices in a row like that?

[@swartz3d]

Shift-double-click on the 2nd adjacent vertex.

[@improvementTime10.3.17]

1:14:10 going back into UV mode

[@jerodvel]

Any one watching in 2018? Do I need to finish all the UV's at the same time I'm doing it or can i save and comeback later?

[@Nashfanfl13]

Ok this is a good video but what I dont understand is after I make all the cuts and stuff and line up my UV's do I have to save it or what? like what is the next step. I wanna bring my models into UE4 but it always messes up cus of the UVs.

[@swartz3d]

The UV map is saved within the file itself -- there is no other step apart from painting and creating materials.

[@Nashfanfl13]

Michael Swartz Ok thanks for the clarification much appreciated.

[@skytiger859]

Give your UVs names as you create them, it'll be much easier to identify them.
