Best UV tools for 3DS Max

sziada · Jun 2016

I was wondering if there were any tools like UV deluxe but for 3ds max, I love a lot of tools max has but there are somethings that really annoy me about it like their straightening tool and lack of tools to help align mirrored UVS, so just curious what are some of best plugins for Max's UV editor?

https://www.creativecrash.com/maya/script/uvdeluxe here is that maya script I was talking about as well

Poly unwrapper and advanced UV normalizer from polytools3d.com. I can't work without them again! What polyunwrapper doesn't have though, is Match UV's, among others, but it has a load of other features (like align shell by selected edge, move cylindrical seam, etc).

I will picks these up, but yeah I been getting a little bit frustrated with my UVs

Max 2017 has certainly improved the uv tools but I also advocate Polyunwrapper as indispensable.

if Poly unwrapper is the way to go, I will check it out, I seen some really neat stuff with that one, I know 2017 UV editor is a big step up but still leaves me wanting more

I'm guessing TexTools is outdated at this point as I rarely here of anyone using it. Anyone here still use it or is polyunwrapper the way to go?

I still use Tex tools, but yeah, its not doing for me as much as it used to

Yes, textools is still applicable but hasn't been updated in a long time.

Poly Unwrapper - I used it when I had to work in Max. It had some decent functionality, although I felt very handicapped compared to when I do UV work in Maya.
