Done :) here is the script:function smoothByUVShells=( clearListener(); if (getCommandPanelTaskMode() != #modify)then(--make sure we are in the modify panel section setCommandPanelTaskMode #modify; ) if (selection.count == 1)then(--at least an object selected local obj = selection[1]; local uv =…
I had some problems with the script posted above, It seemed to give me some incorrect results on more complex models. I decided to have a go at it, so here's my take. Basically I build a list of all the UV islands using a UV modifier, then set the auto smooth threshold to 180 and run auto smooth on each island. I'll post…
yep TexTools reads out the smoothing groups and create UV shells based on that - which is a great start to unwrap. The opposite should be possible as well, I will have a look at it later and see if I can wrap together a quick script that does it the other way around. In TexTools its the subscript…
Here's a script "UV borders to hard edges". The algorithm is quite simple: 1) Select UV borders (used part of Renderhjs' script for Roadkill uwrapping) 2) Convert UV edges selection to EditPoly edges selection (Max is a real pain in the ass!) - my part of the script 3) Make smoothing groups in hard edges style (used script…
