 |
|
| Is it possible to edit obj's with pre existing uv's? Like for example, if I originally unwrapped something in uv layout or max, and wanted to edit seems and layout of the uv's, is there a way to do it in uvlayout? |

Yep, if you load the OBJ with "Edit" selected in the Load Options window, then any existing UVs are loaded in as well as the shape, and then you can edit them.

| And dont forget the WONDERFUL repaint tool! I LOVE it! (and it has become especially useful coupled with 3DS Max 2012 (the new conform feature where you can retopologise a trangulated/low rez model into a higher rez quad version) Still have to do re-texturing/re-cutting basically, but you can use repaint to help with the pre-viz UV alignment of the new version model. |

| The repaint tool in 3dsmax 2012 i love I recently had to retexture a model of a dragon because I was converting it from 300 textures into one main texture to convert to .3ds format and used the repaint saved so much time. |
