Merging UVs from a primitive into an existing polygon mesh

Christopher Tyler Aug, 17th 2015 0 Comments
This UV mapping tutorial shows how to merge a 2D Polygon primitive, with its pre-defined UV coordinates, with another polygon mesh and sync up the UVs from both. It also shows how to retain the existing UVs after a few modeling operations are done, using point pinning and the Conform function.
