Water/Media Grid

Post by remedial »

I seem to remember using a grid file (red lines that showed you the way a mesh would be divided into triangles in loathing while you are still working in Photoshop)

Does anyone know where I could grab one of these? I figure I could make one but I'm not sure how/lazy.

Thanks in advance-

if your using photoshop or any other photo editing tool to do your color map and want accurate model placement etc. Just use the grid tool in the program for photoshop set the gridlines to every 64 pixels with subdivisions 8 ... if you do use one of the old grid overlays align it with the grid for accuracy.

have fun ..

Thanks, dudes. Using the overlay grid for now and it's working wonders. Not placing any models- but that's a good tip for the future.
