Creating textures for obj files.

I have several props that are in obj files - I would like to make textures for them.  I assume step one would be uv mapping them.  WIll the process of uv mapping them give me the.. unfolded version that I can use to make a texture? Or do I need to do something else for that?

    Yes, UV mapping is where you would start. That will give you the unfolded UV map that you can use as a template to paint your textures in a 2D program like Photoshop or the Gimp. I am not a UV mapping expert, but there are others in the forum who are, in case you run into problems.

    Are the Obj's already uv mapped, and you want to change the texture, or are you working with completely unmapped objects?
