copy UV data (caus i screwed up)

Support Materials and Textures
1

Hi i made a model of a penguin and another guy is animating it. So for texturing i removed the bones (wich wasnt so smart) so he did work on a diffrent file the model is the same but the UVs are not. And i realy want to avoid manually vert for vert rearanging the UVs so i got the blender addon copy paste UVs (not working it tells me source loops and destination loops do not match)
Pls help :frowning:

Select the object you want to copy TO, shift select the object you want to copy FROM. The Ctrl+L / Transfer UV Layout (No addons required). Create a copy of the original UVs if you still want to use them as well

only way i got my texture to look fine is if i copied the obj data but then i loose my weightpaint :confused:

i cant just transfer the uv layout i mean the islands look the same but it seems to choose some random tris.
the other possiblility would be to copy the weightpaint data :confused:
