Multiple UV sets 2005-03-01 - By Adam Sale
Back
If you want additional UV sets.. you just need to
hit Get >Property>TextureProjection.. choose your projection type
>From there, you can name your projection, and begin the process of breaking
it down via the texture editor into subprojections.. This way you are UV'ing
the entire object each time a projection is added
With clusters, its typically easier to grab a bunch of poly and apply
materials and textures, but the big problem you've probably read about in
the archives has to do with passes, partitions and overrides. If you aren't
going to be pulling passes, then its safe to go with clusters, otherwise, go
with uv'ing the first..
You can see all of the projections an object has by looking into its
clusters folder via the explorer.
You may want to read up on supports and projections and how they work
together in XSI, as its a little different than how you're probably used to
working
Good luck
Adam
