Maybe..I dont know...honestly I had never mapped under the subdiv so I dont know how layout UVs works!
I am very used to poly technique of modeling and texturing, I had never been in situation to map in subdiv cuz I find it easier to do that in polys.
I was using Max till month ago so I am pritty much new to SubDivs! It's a nice piece of toolary to give a smooth details to your model...
So, you say that I texture it in polys than convert it to subDiv and do every detail from beginning, or use UVs layout in SubDiv?
How does UVs layout work?
