Yeah. I'm using that dialog in fact to find most of these shortcut keys. It doesn't change the fact that what I've found so far isn't nearly as convenient.
What do you mean metroid?
Ok, just did a quick test to make sure this would be right. I made a (very) bad cane and tried unwrapping with smart projections:

Yeah, that's unusable. So, I instead marked the seams where I want it to split the UV. I selected one line of edges up the inside of the cane, pressed Ctrl-E, then selected Mark Seam - this makes them turn orange. I then did the same for the edge around the base and top of the cane. After doing so, I get this UV map:

Still not perfect, but a lot better. It bugs me that the rows/columns of vertices aren't aligned perfectly, but that can be manually fixed with the auto-align functions. There's probably an automated way to do that too but I haven't used it.
[QUOTE=Luxy;22381100]Models submitted must be triangulated, right?[/QUOTE]
that is done on compile automatically.
When we submit it, can I have quads in it? Or does every face HAVE to be a triangle?

Oh ok, so its ok if I UV it on a model with qauds?
Also, I know everyone seems to like arguing whenever it's brought up, but I did just get the TrophyGun viewmodels to appear. They have broken textures, but unlike Blender's broken plugin 3DS Max exported it correctly.
Can I UV a model with quads and still have it work when the exporter turns it into tris?

Yep.

[QUOTE=Mexican;22378437]Does anyone know what to do about this?

This is the working HUD where the capture progress went behind the icon (I can't find a not shitty picture right now)

This is what I have where it overlaps and looks ugly.
Is this for everyone? This was in arena and I'm not sure if it does this outside of arena, I also have widescreen if that's the problem. It's been for a while because I remember it bothering me for a long time. Anyone think a mod could fix it?[/QUOTE]
I second this notion. It probably wouldn't be too hard to fix, I'll look into it.
Need texture ideas for PILLS HERE

Scout tried eating the bottle and not its contents.
Did he vomit rainbows or something after gagging on the bottle?
Yes.
I only did that texture to see what part of the uv map covered what part of the model: dont take it seriously.
pills UV is naff too
Fuck you I think its good.
don't be a cunt
[QUOTE=NeoDement;22381928]pills UV is naff too[/QUOTE]
Yeah that texture's going to come out looking pretty fucked up once you start baking AO to it.
Sad face.

Typing one handed I see, neo?
[QUOTE=NeoDement;22381958]don't be a [I]cunt[/I][/QUOTE]
I see what you-
oh nevermind.
Well, I've got the trophygun view model in. Only issues are that the blue skin doesn't work (but the natascha one does, strangely) and that the ubersaw is basically invisible, since the barrel always obscures it.
[b]Edit:[/b] It works fine in HLMV too, which is the strange thing.
Well the first time someone made the trophygun sketch,the ubersaw was kinda retarded and dumb,so removing it wouldn't be bad at all.
(Yay for the box fort i will get after that because people can't take critcism)
King of page 35...FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU!
[QUOTE=Luxy;22381970]Bad UV maps[/QUOTE]
Eough.. Look up some blender UV mapping tutorials. There's tons out there, and it's not the hardest thing in the world to use. Try to never use the smart projection.
I am doing tutorials right now, dont worry.
Do you think they'll reject my item if I accidentally submitted it with a 1024x1024 texture?
It says 512 by 512 in the rules: what do you expect?
