Quick hair cards advice

thorin13

Hello guys.
I have these hair cards uv mapped and set up and I was wondering if there is a way to quickly overlap them so I will not do it by hand. I understand that there is a tool in maya called "Fit UV's", but I can't find it (and I really looked).


Thanks in advance.

Copy, Paste.

(was that quick enough?)

It is quick indeed but it does not to what I hoped for (tried it in max and maya).

Copy/paste in Max works on same topology elements. Although can be buggy at times. If this happens to me I just turn on snaps and spend less than a minute stacking them. Even in this modern world of 'what's the quickest way to do everything in 3d' I still find less than a minute quick.

I tried to use snap (to grid, because  to pixel is relative to an image I think), but it does not snap to other vertexes in uv editor. I am using Freeform mode to scale.

I don't mind doing it by hand, I just wondered if there was a more automated way.

So the hair cards are already placed on the head then I assume?

Yes, they are already on the head. I made them with a hair strip brush in Zbrush.
