Advanced Member Denis Posted January 8, 2015 Advanced Member Report Share Posted January 8, 2015 (edited) Please help. I retoped this hand and when I try to unwrap, look at what happens to the rest of my uv islands. This was a considerable amount of work, I don't want to lose it all. PS I can do a ctrl z and get back but every time I hit unwrap it screws up everything else. Edited January 8, 2015 by Denis Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reputable Contributor digman Posted January 8, 2015 Reputable Contributor Report Share Posted January 8, 2015 (edited) Plus more information is needed... How many uv sets... Did you unwrap each uv set as you finished it? Edited January 8, 2015 by digman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Advanced Member Denis Posted January 8, 2015 Author Advanced Member Report Share Posted January 8, 2015 Did you unwrap each uv set as you finished it? yes How many uv sets... Not sure what you mean, all the uvs I have for the mesh are shown in the second screen capture. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Javis Posted January 8, 2015 Report Share Posted January 8, 2015 Not sure how to do that. Upload to Dropbox, Sync or Google Drive and send me the link via PM. Or publicly if you don't mind sharing. Either way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carlosan Posted January 8, 2015 Report Share Posted January 8, 2015 Please try to Hide all retopo objects -retopo groups- but current before unwrap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reputable Contributor digman Posted January 8, 2015 Reputable Contributor Report Share Posted January 8, 2015 Did you create more than one uv set is what I meant, multiple uv sets Where is your retopo groups panel? And the best thing to do is what Javis said to do share the file if at all possible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Advanced Member Denis Posted January 8, 2015 Author Advanced Member Report Share Posted January 8, 2015 I think I see what happened. While I was working on the hand I cleared the seams once and then marked them again on the hand. Looks like all of the seams of my entire mesh got cleared as well. Got to go back and remark the seam on the whole mesh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Advanced Member Denis Posted January 8, 2015 Author Advanced Member Report Share Posted January 8, 2015 Yes, that was certainly the problem. While I was working on the hand I had hidden all of the rest of my retopo work so it wouldn't get in my way. I didn't think anything I did to the hand would be applied to the hidden retopo as well, but somehow it did. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
