sweet tut, i have to try those unwrap tools, they are looking sweeeeet man

My workflow is completely different, I'm using flatten map with low angle alot and stitch it all together. all on hotkeys, i rarely click a button.
I can't even stand that universal transform gizmo, I hate to look at it, its so complicated, lol, it's really so different
maybe i should put up a video myself. How did you record that?

Thanks again for sharing!

Cheers, Stefan

That normalize option sounds really sweet...I never even knew about it

Stefan definitly make a video, I love seeing how other people go about working, and videos are the best way without being there in person. I used camtasia 4, it works great and is easy to edit the movie after....really it owns everything else.

I agree, camtasia is great. I've made a cpl of vids for our mod team to get them up to speed with max and photoshop. Its an excellent little program and compresses video really well while retaining great quality.

Nice tutorial, explained the process well. After seeing the uving plugin you used i hunted it down but im not really sure where to put the 3dmax macroscript file or the accompying tga file (or if it is even required) Also how do you active the toolbar in max? Does it automatically pop up once you enter edit uv mode?

cheers

nvm chucked the macro in the macro folder and the tga under the icons or w/e subfolder. Pops up automatically and works in max 9
