My latest tutorial is about a game asset workflow where the textures used in-game are generated from a textured high definition mesh.

I discuss the advantages of this approach compared to old-school ways of working, along with potential caveats. I also give an example using modo 401, covering scene management, shader tree bugs and workarounds, UV creation, baking and utility scripts.

Enjoy!
