Transferring UVs
I have 2 copies of the same polygon model. One of them has good UV mapping that I used to make maps in Photoshop. The other copy has default UVs. I want to copy the UVs from the first copy to the second. I'm running Maya 5. The books I have say that I can select the first copy then select the second copy then simply use the transfer command to transfer the UVs. I can not find any reference to a "transfer" command. Does anyone know how to transfer UVs from one poly model to another (assuming they have the same topology). Thanks!
By the way, the object that has the default UVs has been rigged to a complete model and is part of a character set. This might complicate things.

Make sure UVs are set in the options.
Not sure what tutorial Peltra was referring to?

Oh man! I must have looked at that dropdown menu a dozen times and didn't see it.... Well, I guess it's time to get a pair of glasses.
Thanks!
