Advanced Member Hammers Posted November 28, 2013 Advanced Member Report Share Posted November 28, 2013 I'm gradually getting a handle on this awesome program. Just wondering something about UV unwrapping. When I use the auto unwrap option, although the layout can be a bit messy, textures seem to paint quite well across seams. But when I do bother to 'properly' unwrap, with what I think are fairly well-laid out seams and getting nice looking, more traditional UVs, I often find that there is quite different stretching on either side of seams, which leads to visible joins in texture paints across seams. I'm hoping I'm just missing something, but is there a way to (automatically...) adjust or otherwise match the amount of stretching at the joins between UV islands? Is it just a matter of using the brush tool in the UV texture window, and some relax where possible? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reputable Contributor digman Posted November 28, 2013 Reputable Contributor Report Share Posted November 28, 2013 First, need to see a screen grab of your uv layout. Turn on complex checker also before getting the screen grab... I am shooting in the dark otherwise... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reputable Contributor digman Posted November 28, 2013 Reputable Contributor Report Share Posted November 28, 2013 Added to the above list is capture the 3D view of the seams on the model, 2 to 3 views is helpful... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Advanced Member alvordr Posted December 1, 2013 Advanced Member Report Share Posted December 1, 2013 I agree with Digman on this one. It would help to see the UV layout and the resulting paint job. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
