PROJECT: Metallic Lettering

Christopher Tyler May, 21st 2014 0 Comments
This project walks through the UV mapping setup for some metallic lettering. It shows how to prepare the UV data so there is consistent texture/bitmap application, in addition to proper setup so anisotropy will render correct on the letters. It then walks through the texture and lighting set up for the scene.
