Almost every 3D asset is painted using only one atlas texture. As I mentioned before – almost every 3D object uses the same atlas texture. We created 4 UV sets of each car and wrote a shader that swaps them. What’s more, it’s easy to imitate movement by creating a simple animation, as we did in the booster’s model.
