I can follow up until you split the screen for the uv part. When I get to the part in the video around 6:06 when I change the view to uv/image editor all I see is a blank canvas like graphing paper, there is no pattern. Can you tell me what I'm missing? Thanks again. |

I just figured it out, I didn't have the mesh selected, and I wasn't in edit mode, ha ha, maybe I can really finish this now, it's only been a year sad

Hi, in part 3 of your video I guess that's you Aleesha, the reference mesh is the nude one or the second uv1mesh that we created?
Also if I use blender 2.79 for all the steps will everything work?
Thanks,
Janice

actually, i believe this is the user who created the video. and i'm not sure i understand the question. the reference mesh is whatever you grab from s4s that is similar to your mesh. it has to similar or else there will be an obvious weight and uv_1 problems. and to answer your second question, no, not all of the steps will work. you can use 2.79 for the data transfer between uvs but you'll have to do the extra clean step shown in this tutorial when transferring weights. in the end, you will not be able to import your mesh into s4s if you save it in the version 2.79. you'll need to add the additional information like the cut number and etc in either version 2.70, 2.76, or 2.78. |

you should probably just use blender 2.78 for all the steps you mentioned above. however, when you need to do a weight transfer, you'll need to do the extra clean step as mentioned in this tutorial. |

Hi, thanks for this awesome tutorial. I struggled but once I learned blender better I was able to follow this tutorial to completion. Here is a picture of the top mesh. I think the area I circled in red will be a problem in game, not sure how I did that. Anyway, I'm not sure where to go from here. The tutorial for Aleesha is good, when it gets to part 4 creating the texture, I'm not sure which files to use since I didn't use all the steps from her tutorial. What I'm trying to say the steps in Aleesha's tutorial are slightly different so can anyone tell me which files to use for texturing? Is it the bakedtexture.png file that we created?  |

im assuming in your picture those are areas you deleted in blender that weren't supposed to be deleted. can you share your package and blender file?
