UV Map & Edit

UV Map & Edit is a powerful, but simple to use solution to do UV mapping and editing inside of Cinema 4D. This plugin consists of three tools. The interactive UV mapper applies standard mapping methods with many control options to an UVW tag. The UVW object allows detailed editing of an UVW tag with the editing tools of Cinema 4D. The UV draw tool draws complete or partial UV maps colored by polygon selections in the picture viewer. The interactive UV mapper is similar to the built-in UV tool of Cinema 4D, but provides several additional features. It has plane, cube, sphere, and cylinder mappings, each with additional parameters to control the result. When used on an UVW object, the mapping is done for the original object and applied to both, the UVW object and the UVW tag. Thus, the new UV map is shown as a 2D map and on the object itself. The UVW object is an editable polygon object created from an UVW tag. All changes in point positions of the UVW object are transferred to the original UVW tag. Hence, you can edit the UVW tag with the standard tools of Cinema 4D for editing polygon objects. Real time synchronisation is done by a special tag, that provides several additional tools. Point, edge, and polygon selection and visibility can be transferred between the UVW object and the original object. The weld tool keeps points in the UVW object together that are mapped onto the same point in the original object. The colorize tools show properties of the UV map like the relative size of the mapped polygons or their distortion as colors on the original object. This can be used to optimize the UV map. With the UV draw tool, you can create texture template images by drawing the UV mapping in the picture viewer. Based on the polygon selection tags, partial and colored UV maps can be drawn. The maps may have lines only or filled polygons. Note: You have to enter your Cinema 4D registration number (first 11 digits) during purchase to get the registration code for UV Map & Edit.
