This requirement occurs due to one of the following reasons: Scene importance Object size Saving texture memory (reduce fill rate) Many a times, I have seen artist laying out UVs in such a way for such textures sheet requirement that, though the texture seems fine on a model, it’s actually a stretchy non-square checker layout. In this tutorial, you will see how the UV needs to be laid out to get perfect non-stretchable layout Texel density on the model.AS a base point I have a model (Machet weapon) Based on its proportions and importance, I need a 512(w) X 1024(h) texture sheet. I have laid out the UVs like a normal layout with perfect square checker size. Keeping the UVs on one half of the layout will not solve our problem because this means we are just using half of the complete texture that will be applied to the m

It was one year ago that GarageGames introduced the Affiliated Developer program . In that year as a producer I’ve reviewed countless video game pitches from good to awful. I am marking the one year occasion by guest authoring Jeff’s blog to offer broad tips that will help independent game developers successfully pitch themselves or their game to any publisher without boring the publisher or losing their interest. Batter up! Insider tip: “Zzzz” is not the sound of approval First, a quick reminder on what our own AD program is: “We are working with a few great developers to make games that are exclusive to GarageGames and that we help bring to market. We call this our Affiliated Developer partnership program.” - Jeff Tunnell in Sept 2006, coining the Affiliated Developer program Even befo
