Guys,
I’ve never used maya so I’m having a bit of a problem importing an OBJ file. So I go file - Import and I selected the OBJ but nothing happens. Does anyone know why?
2nd how do I unwrap in Maya?
1- Within the Import option box at the bottom, choose OBJ, and it should open up. 2- For unwrapping, click on Create UV’s menu at top (activate Polygons submenu at top left Tab Pull down) and choose whichever method you want- Planar or Cylindrical. Then click on Window Menu/ UV Texture Editor to see the mapping applied to that specific area. In Hypershade (Window/Rendering Editors) create desired Material and link this to your texture file, and texture will be visible w/ hardware texturing activated within Shading Submenu.
