DESCRIPTION

English: The Question Mark BlockThe Question Mark Block (also known as the ? Block) is one of the most recognizable elements of the Super Mario universe. First appearing in Super Mario Bros. (1985), this floating golden or yellow cube is a cornerstone of the game's mechanics and visual identity.

Characteristics and Functions:Design: Traditionally yellow with a flashing white or black question mark in the center. In modern versions, it often features a metallic sheen and four rivets at the corners.

Interaction: Mario or other characters must hit the block from below—usually with their head or a jump—to trigger its contents.

Contents: These blocks act as loot boxes for the player, containing essential items such as:

Coins: The most common reward.

Power-ups: Super Mushrooms, Fire Flowers, or Super Stars.

Secrets: Occasionally, they may hide a beanstalk or even an enemy.

Depletion: Once exhausted, the block typically turns into a solid, dull brown or grey Used Block, indicating it can no longer be interacted with.

Note: Unrigged model / Nota: Modelo no riggeado.

Español: El Bloque de InterrogaciónEl Bloque de Interrogación (conocido simplemente como Bloque ?) es uno de los elementos más emblemáticos del universo de Super Mario. Desde su debut en Super Mario Bros. (1985), este cubo amarillo flotante ha sido una pieza fundamental tanto en la jugabilidad como en la identidad visual de la franquicia.

Características y Funciones:Diseño: Tradicionalmente es de color amarillo con un signo de interrogación parpadeante en el centro. En versiones modernas, suele tener un acabado metálico y cuatro remaches en las esquinas.

Interacción: Mario u otros personajes deben golpear el bloque desde abajo (generalmente con un salto) para activar su contenido.

Contenido: Funcionan como cajas de recompensa que pueden contener objetos esenciales como:

Monedas: El premio más frecuente.

Power-ups: Superchampiñones, Flores de Fuego o Estrellas.

Secretos: En ocasiones, pueden ocultar tallos para subir a las nubes o incluso enemigos sorpresa.

Agotamiento: Una vez que se extrae su contenido, el bloque se transforma en un Bloque Usado de color marrón o gris sólido, indicando que ya no tiene utilidad.

Note: Unrigged model / Nota: Modelo no riggeado.

Geometry
No N-gons
N-gons are polygons with five or more sides which might cause issues in certain processes like rendering or animation. Learn more
No faceted geometry
Faceted geometry uses flat surfaces without smoothing, which can look unrealistic on curves.
Learn more
Manifold geometry
Manifold geometry ensures all surfaces are properly connected, avoiding issues like edges shared by more than two faces.

Textures & material
PBR textures
PBR textures simulate how light interacts with materials, making the model look realistic under different lighting.
Required PBR textures:
- Base Color
- Roughness
- Metalness
- Normal

No embed textures
Embedded textures are stored inside the model file, increasing its size and sometimes causing compatibility issues.
Learn more
Square textures
Texture aspect ratio is the width-to-height ratio of a texture. Expected texture aspect ratio: 1:1
Learn more
Power of 2 texture sizes
Textures with dimensions in power of two (e.g. 512x512px, 1024x1024px) are used to optimize performance and memory usage.

Assigned materials
Materials are applied to the 3D model to allow visualize a model's surface properties and appearance.
Learn more
UVs & naming
No UV overlaps
UVs overlap when multiple points on the 3D model's surface are mapped to the same point on the UV island causing texture stretching.
Learn more
UV unwrapped model
A UV unwrapped model means its 3D surface is flattened into 2D space, allowing textures to be applied accurately.
