Pillar Maps

Pillar Normal Map

Pillar Ambient Occlusion Map

Pillar All Poly

I deleted the top of the high poly model as it looked out of place with the rest of the design.

(Featured below is a shot of all the above models overlaid for baking, aka AllPolyModel)


Further Pillar Work

After doing further 3D work I believe that I will be able to make a far better version of my pillar. So I have decided to go back and continue working on it


I have redone the pillar unwrapping. This time with many more pieces, I have grouped them into areas of the pillar.

Out of the oven and into the fire!

I am having trouble baking my model. I have tried using both .obj and fbx.dae exports of my models and neither have manged to bake. The second I tried, fbx.dae, claims that my cage and low poly have a different number of vertices. However checking the models in maya it appears they actually do.
I will discuss this issue with Chris so that we may the solution to whatever it is that has gone wrong.
