[Plugin] UVTools 0.2 Pro (Beta) (Updated for SU6)

Hi all!
Everytime I try to UV map I get a bug splat
I get copy paste the .rb in the plugin folder... Am i right?
I have SU 6 maybe that's the issue -

as in the video I select the cylinder -> right click -> UV map tool -> cylindrical...

Thanks!

Awesome! Using your rb with Lithunwrap (free). Lithunwrap is pretty easy to use and I'll have to agree with some of the other posts about UV tools being difficult to use and not user friendly, but this one is.
Your UVtool helped me big time modeling some furniture with texture UV requirements.
Thanks,

Hi Whaat
I'm trying your plugin now and it seems to works fine on mac.
Cheetah3D doesn't deal with mtl file it only opens the obj and only export obj file without mtl file
Blender 2.52 doesn't open the obj file.
Perhaps I've got to try an UVmapping app.
Hope it can help you
cheers

LOL, I think I can do something with your plugin and Cheetah3D, I've got try a little bit more
Thanks Whaat

Here's a quick screen capture I made of using Whaat's plugin to demonstrate going from SU to Max (2009) for UV. It's a bit tricky as there are a lot of options in the .obj exporter that make the re-import not work properly. I've found the best preset to use in the Max .obj exporter is the one for Bryce with the default settings. This seems to be the only one that gives consistent success which I believe is due to the scale adjustment applied in that preset. I've had a couple people ask me privately so I figured I'd make a quick video - http://www.screencast.com/t/NWM0YzRiNTU

Hi Dale,
Many thanks for this tool, a great tool!
But I would like to place the files in my own Project folder. Is there a way to change the memory location?Karlheinz

Karlheinz###get the default path to write the OBJ to
def self.get_obj_path obj_name="su_uv_bridge.obj" on_mac=(Object;;RUBY_PLATFORM =~ /mswin/i) ? false ; ((Object;;RUBY_PLATFORM =~ /darwin/i) ? true ; ;other) if on_mac path=File.join(ENV['HOME'],"Library","Application Support","UVTools") else path=File.join(ENV['APPDATA'],"UVTools") end Dir.mkdir(path) unless FileTest.exist?(path) return File.join(path,obj_name) end
Is the code near the end that sets the 'path' to the folder where the stuff is saved... find this code and change it to suit your desires...
So on a PCpath=File.join(ENV['APPDATA'],"UVTools")
could become
path="C:/MyFolder1/MyFolder2/etc/etc"
or whatever..............

Hi TIG,
thanks for your help. I changed according to your example. Works perfectly.

Hi!
I've got a problem with UV Tools:
I want to create a palm (~400 tris), i export it, uvmap it, re-import it and it works. Now, i only make one leaf model, uvmap it and then i go lik copy/paste. BUT: Sketchup or UV Tools are messing up some of the faces (not visible inside sketchup, but once i look at it in LithUnwrap or Unreal Development Kit, its messed up.)
Does anyone know how to fix that?BTW: I'm using the newest version of Sketchup 7.

Maybe try another program or adjust the OBJ import settings on your program. Some screenshots would help explain the issue, or you could post the SKP model that you are trying to export.

That's a strange issue. I really don't know what the problem would be. I need to spend some time testing UV mapped models that are copy/pasted. Can anyone else confirm this issue?

Hi,
i have a problem. I tried to export a Texture from a simple rectangle face. The message appears but nothing is exported. My folder is empty. I followed strictly the work instructions.
Now i made a further test and selected a face from SANG and it worked.
What could be wrong?

Not sure....any error messages in the Ruby Console when you try to export the rectangle face?

Well ok the problem is that .obj exporter in sketchup but i got it fixed by exporting my model first into .3ds and then open in another program to export it into .obj file.
but now i have new problem when i import my model back in sketchup useing this plugin it tells me that 174 faces failed and nothing is imported. -
