Introduction
This script is a fast way to map uv coordinates using the active face as a bases for mapping all adjacent quads, in can be used for unwrapping a pipe, or mapping a road.
Usage
Examples
Tube unwrapped with one seam
Subdivided Cube with 1 seam
Road as a quad strip, using Loop Average mode to remove texture distortion
Instructions
Pick the quad that you want the other faces to follow and map it in the UV/Image window.
Select connected faces to map from the active, their existing mapping will be overwritten.
Activate the script from the UV Calculation menu.
- Non square mapping will give interesting but less useful results.
- If there are any loops in the quads, you may want to add seams get predictable results.
- only selected faces connected to the active face will be mapped.
Options
There are 2 options for this tool...
| Loop Average UV coordinates are distributed in an even grid, with proportions matching the average proportions of the faces. (average per face loop) |
 |
 |
| No Area Each quad is mapped directly from the active with no influence from the shape of the face, only the topology of the mesh matters in this case. |
