No distortion on UV shell or straight UVs?
Hey guys, just need your advice on UVs. I'm working on a Tommy gun and the barrel itself has alot of cylinders. I know it is best to keep your UV's as straight as possible but when I UV the cylindrical parts as straight strips(as opposed to a simple planar map, I get some noticeable distortion as shown here: I'm referring… -
why uv packers are so stupid and treat uv islands as conveses?
Hello, I'd like to ask you why uv packers are so stupid and treat uv islands as convexes? I've tested: -3ds max packer -uv-packer -xray unwrap -polyunwrapper and all of them worked similar. Check out this screen from the official uv-packer website: Is there any better plugin\script that can handle packing of uv's? -
Baking normal details from UV 1 to AO map on UV 2. My brain hurts.
I have a very strange dilemma to deal with. I have a building .FBX consisting of multiple objects with different tiling materials applied (overlapping UV's outside of the 0-1 uv atlas). I have created a separate UV set that contains the WHOLE buildings UV's but in the 0-1 UV atlas with no overlapping for the purpose of… -
Mirroring and stacking UVs leads to tangent discontinuity and seam
Hello all, I've been stuck on this for a while and would appreciate any help. In Maya I have a mesh where I mirrored the top half of the geo, which also mirrored and stacked the uvs. I did this to increase texel density. I then exported as a .fbx file and made sure to export smoothing groups but not tangents and binormals.… -
How to change Maya 2022's pinned UV color in UV Editor?
For some reason, by default, the color for UV shells that are pinned in the UV Editor in Maya is bright sky blue with the wireframe also being bright blue. It's extremely hard on the eyes to see this wireframe because it's blue on blue. Anyone know how to change that bright blue color of the pinned UV mesh? I'd even settle… -

Question about 3Ds Max UV Mapping with multiple UV Maps
Hello! I've just recently started 3D Modelling, specifically to mod a game. I've been trying to add new units, and new models for those units. The game is basically about World War 2 in the Pacific, so mostly warships for now. Anyways, I recently extracted this model of a battleship from a different game. The model came in… -
Maya 2018: UV Editor, can you snap uv border to grid?
I mean for a case like this: I have multiple uv shells selected and stacked, and I have uv editor grid setup to match my tileable textures. But now I want to snap and scale uv shells so that it matches the texture. I feel there should be a tool in UV Editor or UV Toolkit that can do that, but I couldn't find one. Any… -
Overlapped UVs per UV island 3ds Max.Accurate method to find them?
Hi) I downloaded kodama plugin(on CGTrader) wich performs checking of uploading model. The problem is that it finds overlapped UVs in my model. In 3ds Max I use unwrap modifier to identify overlapping(I render UVW template where overlapped UVs are marked with red color)-see attachment However this method does not show me… -
Why the UV does not move in the UV texture editor in maya?
Hi eveyone! When I had transfered All UV set from a primitive ball to a second promitive ball in maya. Each of them just has one UV set. Then I opened the UV texture editor and moved the UVs of the second ball, but they did not move at all. I want to know why really. Thank you very much!
