im having some trouble using texture files and connecting them to uv maps’s islands which arent square shaped like the textures are.
are there any tips, help and/or resources to learn this?
I know the basics on painting the base models but am looking to use textures but they are square shaped and my uv map islands are not perfectly square.
I would recommend using square UV maps exclusively, it will be much easier to remap your UVs to a standard 0-1 space than try and get your texturea to work with a nonstandard UV space
my uv map is the square but the islands are what i’m asking about. sorry for the confusion.
Quadrify your islands!
I believe TexTools UV editor has that function called Rectify…
I prefer to use UV-Squares as it works very well…
None will work well if the mesh is triangulated, so first it needs to be run through Face > Tris to Quads or using a re-mesher…
