Posted a Day Ahead and Texture Baking

Thought I should give everyone a heads up for Blender User Group tomorrow.  We will be going over texture baking in the Blender internal render engine.

(There are zero lights in this render).

This is a awesome tool that can be used to improve render times, and create great textures for video games, among other things.  Here is a link to the wiki  http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/Doc:2.6/Manual/Render/Bake   We encourage you to review some of the terms so not everything is unfamiliar to you.

We will be meeting at the same place and time.  Check the meeting schedule page if you don't know when or where.

See you all there!

This is the first post for the Blender User Group Blog.

I would like to just give a quick introduction to Blender User Group Utah.

First of all, this whole thing is based around an open source piece of software called Blender. Which can be download for free here. Go ahead and take a look around blender.org to learn a little more about it.

The Blender User Group provides an opportunity, for those who haven't used blender, or any 3D application, to learn how to use Blender. It also provides an opportunity, for those who already use Blender, to share their knowledge, learn more, and find out what others in their area are using this wonderful piece of software for.

One of our main goals help people use this software to benefit them. And hope to create a local community to benefit each other .

So we hope that you can join us.

If you have any question go ahead and email the administrator at blenderusergrouputah@gmail.com
