I bought it twice on Gumroad a while back to show support for this great tool and all of the hard work.
Sent an e-mail via the link to get the upgrade code.
Stoked to get UV Packmaster 3.

any plans for tools for helping with stretching in the future or tools for rotating the islands to be in the direction they in the scene ?

[JWise]

For those using UVPackmaster with ZenUV you might want to wait on upgrading until ZenUV supports UVPackmaster 3.0.

[glukoz]

Yes, UVPackmaster 3 has just been released!

wow!!
I’m not managing UVs too much but, from what I can see from your video, it seems really great!!
Some features seems like gold.

The error has already been fixed - thank you for notification.

@Michael_Knubben

I thought this was in, but it seems not: Can you make a feature like the rotation step per island, but for scaling? So the ‘auto scale’ option can be left on, but certain islands (bits that are rarely seen or need less texel density) can be scaled to a certain percentage of the rest?

Similar feature was implemented in UVPackmaster 3 - Island Scale Limit, check it out

We have a lot of plans for UVPackmaster 3 further development. Stay tuned!

[Renzatic (Professor Emeritus Billy H. Wafflesmith XIV Esq.)]

So what’s the ETA on the Linux rev? I want to know, cuz I hate being left out.

[Lamia]

Awesome, i’ve been thinking about buying this because im currently using RizumUV and this addon is a couple tools away from filling most my needs.

[ostapblender (Bohdan Lvov)]

Just WOW, it looks AWESOME

Any plans on seam creation?

Hi, i totaly love the new UVP3, great job guys!

What I miss are standard groups, not lock groups, used “just as a groups”.

I used them a lot for marking parts of my mdoel, but not for any packing feature. I do a lot of game weapons, and used groups to mark parts near to player camera, where I put more texel density. For parts, which are inside the model or far from camera to lower the texel density and for the rest of the model, where I keep standard density. So later I can easily select them.

Can this “only grouping” be implemented back please?
