Hmm... not sure how to fix that. That's nothing wrong with my scripts -- it's definitely an issue with how Maya handles mesh smoothing and UVs. You might check out this page for a possible solution (I haven't tried it myself yet, but I've seen lots of references to it on CG-Talk):

Thanks for the tut Danny!
..only one problem... he doesn't have that plug compiled for 4.5 :( ..well.. back to the drawing board.. |
I had the same problem:

Danny just to say thanks for this script- I mentioned UV Unwrap and you mentioned you had written a script that did the same things, so I thought I would give it a try. It works really well!
Used it for my fish in the tournament thing we are currently doing and it made life much easier. I finally had a UV layout that was useable to paint with in PS and it went back on the model with only a little tweaking needed. Combined with the SM tut on UV wrapping (with the rabbit) and I finally have a little more understanding of this UV mapping lark. Thanks! |
I remember that man... sorry I couldn't help ya, as you can see, I'm having the same issue.
Danny gave a link above to a GREAT explanation for the reason why we are having these problems, (THANKS DANNY!!!) ...anyway, the guys' friend wrote a plugin for Maya 4.0 that cures the issue, however I believe both of us are on Maya 4.5.... Though the theory can be implemented by hand quite easily, my fear is that I might be wasting my time because I cannot believe we are the only two with this issue. So for poops & giggles, I'm going to try posting at CGTalk to see what others have done. ..yeah, yeah, I know, it's dangerous to post there, but hopefully, my kung-fu will prevail:) hehe... Wish me luck, and I'll post any help I get in the proper sectionfrom now on... . . . . .....starting...... NOW! hehe... |
hey danny,
i use your uvtools from now on ......works real good... a friend 3rdDimension told me about it.... thanks.. |
Hi Rage,
have you e.g. tried SmoothUV... it should work with 4.5 --> http://perso.wanadoo.fr/coyhot/Code_SmoothUV.htm it is in french, but you can get some of it translated throu this site... --> http://babelfish.altavista.com/ (otherwise english is included in the downlabled file) I believe it is on Highend also, but I can't remenber were... :) there is also some goodies on this site "Creating High Res Polygonal Models"... where Ben Bathen comes with some good things regarding UV... http://www.benbathen.com/Tutorial.html the tutorial and melscripts can be downloaded on this site... http://www.benbathen.com/MelScripts.html I don't know if it will solve your problem... otherwise we could hope that Imre Tüske will update the plugin which is used on Oliver's site... :) regards Strarup |
Thanks for the tips and links starup!
...problem is, I just upgraded to 5.0, and the problems seem to have been fixed:) Thanks for the 4.5 tips and links as I'm SURE someone will find them very handy m8! |
