The first one, i decided to use ptex. I had problems with ptex when exporting it out back into maya. I wasn't able to get all the textures and paint layers back onto my cube model in maya. I followed a video tutorial and i wasn't able to get the same results. So i decided to try and export the model from mudbox as an .fbx just to see if i can bring it in unity. I did manage to get the model into unity without any textures or color on it. So i know i can import .fbx models to unity with no problem.

Test#2 - Maya - Mudbox - Maya - Unity with UVs
For my second test i decided to look back into UVs and researched how to do UVs. Because it's been a while since i used them. It turns out using UVs for textures is a lot easier to manage and carry over between programs. I found out i could just drag and drop my texture image into my assets folder for unity, and then just drag and drop it onto my model to apply it. I still used .fbx to get my model into unity. Other then that it was a lot easier to go through this pipeline for this test.
