Maya Texturing Class : Game Barrel
Texturing the barrel using one of Maya's game oriented materials was a good experience for understanding how maps work within different types of rendering engines. The maps used where different however those that changes where similar to one previously with a few changes so understanding the new uses of these maps was easy.
On the technical side some of the thing we learnt where very useful and will be a big help later on when making my own texture maps, the main thing that comes to mind is the overlaying of the normal map in a way that lets us use multiple colour specific map.
This is how the barrel looks in view port after all the texture maps are applied, These maps create something that looks detailed and interacts with the light as if it is detailed while still only being very low Polly. this is so that game assets don't end up being information heavy and are able to run in real time, like in the viewport.
