                    I got a lot of erros when i export a model to blender and than back. Most of the times i get errors on faces which cant be mapped. The model is kind of a mess, triangles and quads together. Do i need to fix all of this first?

                      Have no quads on export.

                      Blenders obj exporter doesn't place nice with SketchUV.

                      There's the ability to import blender quads as obj with QuadFace Tools.

                        That seems like a dirty solution. There's a quad texture in this plugin than why cant it handle quads correct, making it triangles makes unnecessary big. Isnt there a other solution

                          Do some tests on exporting obj from blender.

                          You'll see that non planar quad faces are subdivided and not triangulated.

                          So whilst these plugins support the QuadFace convention it doesn't work both ways unless you force it.

                          The other solution which is faster is to stay entirely in Blender.

                            Ok so I have had a read through the thread and it doesn't seem like anyone is dumb enough to try what I want to do... 😳

                            I want to create a Icosahedron (triangular sided) globe. So I choose the spherical mapping and the UV maps appear to be ok but when I put the globe texture on the poles aren't quite right.

                            Is it because there aren't enough faces to map to? Would sub dividing help? or is it too low poly?

                            Here are the screen shots and skippy.

                            Thanks in advance

                              That look about right to me.

                              Tri's and poles are hard for any mapping method.

                                    That does look better Rich, as always with this sort of thing the client wants it to be triangular faces. πŸ˜’

                                          Not sure if you can use this, but that paper globe model is available for free at model+model... πŸ˜‰

                                          I downloaded the OBJ and imported it to SketchUp and got this result...
