Export tiles individually
polycounter lvl 8
I have an object with 5 tiles, I made six tiles in Maya, as I read it is better, why it's better, I dunno, maybe someone wants to clear the air on this matter ?
When I export the snapshot template of the UV tiles, instead of a series of image files of each tile that are either 4K or 8K I get one big image file that is 4K in size, it is probably less resource hungry if I export the tiles as a series of 4K images, rather then one big 20K image into an image editor, but how can this be done ?

i would suggest to use mudbox or mari to export the uv snap if you like to use a 2D paintng app... but if you have to paint 5 tiles its better tu use a 3D painter...
I could do that method, I suppose I may have too when working with multi-tile UV's as there isn't a script that could do this.
but something like this could work. adjust to your needs:
for($i=0;$i<5;$i++) { uvSnapshot -aa -uMin $i -uMax ($i+1) -vMin 0 -vMax 1 -n ("D:\\your\\project\\path\\images\\outUV_100" + $i + ".tga") -xr 2048 -yr 2048 -r 255 -g 255 -b 255 -o -ff tga; }
