UV Problem
 
I am trying to texture a shield object that I made using polygons.
I layed out my Uv's all nice, made my textures, and shader and slapped it on. The problem is, The UVs are having no effect on the placement of the image, So i can grab a bunch of uvs and move em around and nothing will happen to the texture placement. Also, usually the image will appear in the UV Texture editor, but it didnt this time.

I tested it out on another simple object, and the shader and texture worked fine. Im sure its something simple im overlooking,

Very odd. The first I would suggest is deleting the object's construction history. That usually clears up most problems. If that doesn't work, post the scene file and I'll check it out.

Deleting the objects history would probly fix it.


EDIT: Oops, Danny said that.

Tried the history, and no go.

Ill post the scene. I've aplied a simply checker blinn to two objects, (the textures are big), but it shows the same problem.
Check out each object's uv map.

It might have something to do with having multiple Uv sets on the shield. I didn't know how to get rid of them.

thanks.

You can delete UV sets really easily. Just select the UV set in the UV Texture Editor (Image > UV Sets), then select Delete Current UV Set under the File menu.

I think you may have gotten the extra UV sets from your planar projection options box. Scroll all the way to the bottom of the dialog and uncheck Create New UV Set.

thanks danny that helped alot.
One last thing.
Im down to 2 UV sets, one is the default, and one is the one i want to use. However, it says I cannot delete the default one.
Is there a way to make my second one the default? Or to copy the uv's in my second one to the default one? I've tried the copy and paste Uvs but it didn't work.

Thanks again
