cool, i started uv mapping in wings. made a decent start of a uv map. cool. but now i want to KILL UPSPRING. because after all that frigging work, upspring sits there dumb fonded when i try to reload any model format with the uv on..... i hate upspring! so all that effort
i have all these uved models lying around but they dont have separate pieces! grrrrr

wut?

In wings you can seperate non-connected geometry with the Seperate command in object mode.

If you were trying to import UVs into upspring, that doesn't seem to work, or I was doing it wrong and have no clue how to do it.

never mind smoth helped me out! all i can say is: Spring community, be prepared to have new mod spams from bob the dinosaur!'

Fear my s3os!

ok this is my first go on 3d wings ever:

It was a house from a really bad tutorial. 3d wings is so confusing with all the different commands and stuff i can't beleive how you can make all your models so good! even eightball with his tank.

Wrong thread!

Try blender

Cool I did it

You're not supposed to give people bad advice

I personally like blender, but it's not easier to learn to use than wings is.

I like blender too minus the clumsy modeling functions.

*sees use of smoothing tool*
*gets pitchfork*

less smoothing and more smothing

it was just for fun

BUMPORIFIC

why would you bump a sticky, lol

look at me! I'm a modler!

yay!

This tutorial and others on this site were a bit too simplistic for uv mapping complex models. So I went searching outside the site and found this gem:

Should be useful if your model isn't a "death cube" or Borg mothership.

BAD TUTORIAL! DON'T TEACH PEOPLE SHIT UVMAPPING!

Er... smoth, could you be more specific and less grouchy for a second? I can't even tell if you're referring to the OP or the link I just posted. Either way which parts are "shit"?
