Characteristics

What is UV-Packer?

UV-Packer is a plugin for Autodesk 3ds Max. It is a "one click" solution for packaging all your UV maps by calculating their sizes and proportions and optimally distributing them on the UV panel.

You no longer have to spend hours moving, rotating, and scaling your maps to utilize the entire mapping area - UV-Packer does it for you in a second.

Advantages of UV-Packer

In a vibrant and stressful work by a modern 3D artist, there's nothing worse than wasting time on repetitive and boring handwork. Imagine how many craziest artworks and amazing designs you could create if there weren't things like dragging, rotating, and adjusting parameters that really should be done by the machine. 3d-io designers and developers offer you a small yet fast and accurate utility to save hours and working days on UV Maps.

UV-Packer does what you can't: calculates the perfect squaring of your maps, scales them, and assembles the pieces in a mathematically accurate way that no human being would ever be able to process.

UV-Packer not only moves and rotates its UV parts, but also takes into account the mesh surface area and scales the parts independently to provide a uniform distribution of pixels. Your models will never have different texture sizes and therefore varying amounts of texture quality on the legs, arms and body textures, as the UV-Packer keeps them all the same.

What's new in UV-Packer?

Key features:

• The UV-Packer offers 3D artists instant and ideal UV packaging in self-customizable UV tile sets. Artists can now easily control the number of UV tiles, automatically generate material IDs for each UV tile, or unwrap UV tiles according to material ID settings. This is especially useful for the Mari, Mudbox, or ZBrush workflow.
• Compatibility with Autodesk 3ds Max 2018.
• New simplified web-managed licensing: UV-Packer is released with the new online licensing system, allowing users to transfer one-click licenses to any other workstation. No more wait time caused due to time zones or email requests: You can turn the license on or off and move it as you wish.
