Unwrella is now available in version 2.10 for Autodesk 3ds Max.

This new version of Unwrella enhances the plug-in’s functionality with optional automatic seam placements based on the mesh’s topology. Depending your specific requirements you can add seems in grooves of your mesh where they won’t be seen or you can add seams to ridges on the surface to assist with shapes that have hard angles, for example architectural meshes.

Changes in Unwrella 2.10:

  • Added support for Autodesk 3ds Max 2011 and Autodesk 3ds Max Design 2011.
  • Added the option to place automatic seams at grooves in the mesh where they are better hidden.
  • Added the option to place automatic seams at ridges in the mesh to provide clear cuts for hard surface models.
  • Source map channel from which seams are kept can now be different to target channel. This allows you to create multiple different unwraps for your mesh with ease.
  • Simplified user interface to make using the plug-in even more intuitive.
  • Enhanced unwrap results for specific cases. This results in less fragmentation of coherent surfaces.

Unwrella 2 Quads support

Unwrella 2 Quads support

Unwrella was developed for the high demands of graphics designers in real world production environments and provides a fast, simple and reliable unwrapping solution. It is the first tool of this kind on the market, allowing the unwrapping of 3d models to be done with a single mouse click while simultaneously providing optimal results that combine the minimized texture stretching of automated unwrapping techniques with the efficient space utilization and chunk distribution of UV space that is achieved with manual pelt wrapping methods. This allows users to quickly solve complex tasks like the creation of seamless 3d models, more accurate lightmaps and productive subsequent processing of the UV maps in other 3d applications like ZBrush or Mudbox.
