there's a faster way, when you unfold your mesh, you can select a central edge that cross the object and click in "Straighten Shell" and them select all the shell and click "Straighten UV"

@hanumaanek 3 жыл бұрын

u can do also cylindrical uv mapping... and then unfold U / or unfold V... it depends on your objects...same result but faster

Cool method! BUT No need to cut this little uv shell. Just deselect edges of uv-cuts in 3d viewport at 2-55 step and do all the same steps as shown. It will work even with full torus

Hello! I hope you are good. At the time of performing the third method, specifically, when I press Unfold along V the UV continues to be stericized, it does not straighten. Do I have to configure the Unfold so that they are aligned to me?

As long as your textures look fine super clean uv layouts don't matter that much. The first unfold looks so close to your end result when you showed the checker map, but hey it looks super clean.

@angosalvo5734 Жыл бұрын

it's not abou how the uvs are going to look. Sometimes you have a pattern that needs to be repeating a long the surface in a seamless way, or a texture with apparant straight lines. If you dont have even UVs they are going to look wrong. Even though the first uv as you said would be the most realistic and how unwrapping would be in real life.

You can always try to change the straighten UV angle from 0 to 30 or 45 and it gives you nice straight UVs or you can just select the vertices from the second method snap the pivot along the edge and scale the non aligned vertices to make a perfect rectangular straight UV

I often use this method in Maya as well. However, when I check the UV Distortion option, it tends to look quite messy. Maybe I'm relying on it too much, but should the distortion it shows be a concern?

@farrex0 2 жыл бұрын

Depends, plenty of clients and or lead artists I have worked with, do not like when they see the UVs distorted and will ask you to fix it. But now in terms why it might be a problem. If you are going to bake it, and has enough resolution, then you might get away with it. But if it has lower resolution you might actually see the pixels stretch and it looks bad. If you paint straight lines, it might look bad because the line might get thinner in the areas with more resolution. If you add a distinguishable pattern, you might see it become smaller where there is more density and it might even distort. But if you do not have any of that, you might get away with it, and there are ways to fix some of the problems. Such as duplicating the model, completely relaxing the UVs, putting the pattern, and then baking it. But of course, having to fix those problems is extra work, and it might be better to fix the UVs before texturing.

@jamesmccallum1248 2 жыл бұрын

Hey tutorial-maker guy! I reeeaaaaally appreciate those like yourself going out of your way to make vids like this. But we are a little bit confused! Why does this process work? From about 2:40 onwards - the process seems to be a series of random functions which give the desired result? Could you please explain the steps again? And why they work?

I run into this issue where this method works fine, but eventually the UV shells get all messed up and crumpled as I continue working in my scene. Any thoughts? I'm using Maya 2022, but I saw this issue on Maya 2019 and Maya 2020 too. I am deleting history on the UV shells after I finish them, but it doesn't fix the crumpling.

I am sorry but this is not correct. Your uv checker map on third object is not evenly distributed and as a resoult you will have streached texture. This is very bad tutorial. Only amatours gave you hand up :-)
