Marvelous Designer to Maya UV Retopology ( HELP! )
polycounter lvl 6
Hi guys, basically i was following this tutorial on the flipped normals youtube video.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VFAfqW0Zlqk&t=393s&ab_channel=WisEngineering
so at the 12:10 minute mark, he merged the vertices together so it would be connected at the seams. But when I merged the vertices on my model, the UVs actually deform and cause stretching and distortion. Is there a workaround this to not have distortion but sitll keep the vertices merged and having clean uvs? could it be my vertices are too far from each other? I followed the video pretty close but i cant get a proper alignment of the vertices, even though i have the correct number of vertices to merge on each side of the seam.
I hope someone could give me some advice on this. Thank you for looking through.
