I did give it a spin on a car - it's probably me, just having mapping n my fingers, but I wasn't all that impressed.
Did try it on an old dense organic mesh too - worked well.
I'm kind of in two mi ...

Hiya,

Not sure where to ask this, so I posted it here, as a general question:
Now that ptex has started to be released in the main modeller apps, how do people see the future of uv mapping - wil ...

Will do - give me a few, I just need to wait for vRay to finish an illustration render, it's hogging my resources

No. Don't need shift+D Smile

- I used that on a non-Deep UV'd wire, works fine .

I'll try sending you the wires as soon as I get permission

I also apologise for the initial someone's - I meant to ...

Let me check, in the mean time, here is my workflow, explaining the lack of UVs:

* Opened original wire as New>everything checked - that's why it's got no UVs
* Flattened wire's head and torso ...

nope - this is a Poly/edit/everything checked import, so all I've been doing is just welding it back together so a UV map actually CAN be generated

pm'd you - but trying to weld this together, faster

I used some of those already - but I was hoping there was a weld like I defined - would have made welding faster, as my main issue wasn't mapping, but welding together FOR mapping, and it'd have been ...

Hiya,

In the UV View, is there any function like F>empty space>LMB for welding?
I just spent some time fixing someone's Deep UV'd wire, and I can't seem to find a multiweld function like ...

I hear you Smile

When I don't work in threedie, I work as a project manager, having worked my way up from sysadmin>test manager>etc.
I worked at a webbrowser company once - one of the garbage ...

Cool - I wasn't sure if it was a bug or feature - because it does stop, when you press space, eventually but only after it's run it's course a few times, and it stops easier if the wire has been optim ...

Not quite working for me.

give me a few, and I will rustle up a screenshot or screencap.
It works fine on stopping a Shift + F run, but is pressinf space when running a Shift + B intended to wor ...

I like using it - it gives me a nice little mini-snap when I activate it, v handy on impossible wires Smile

When you press S over a selected shell, and do your flattening thing, are you supposed to be able to "un-yellow" that shell afterwards?

i.e I press S over a shell in UV view. The wire turns yellow. ...
