UV pelt, Unwrap 2004-03-04 - By Damon Godley (Core Design Ltd.)

Hi,
This article refers to a version done in maya, which although tedious can be
done by hand using dynamics. I wrote a mel script that set it up, and I know of
a few other people that where playing with this idea. That said it is
relatively easy to miss out the dynamics and make your own solver and set it up
to be more specific to what you need to achieve, and as I can see would be easy
to implement into XSI. If you do some more searching though you will find that
there are more advanced method's of pelting.
Try searching for UV parameterization, least squares conformal mapping ,
Automatic Texture Atlas Generation etc.
This all gets a bit hard though and my interest was dazzled by the complicated
math involved.
I still kept going with the spring method and have some reasonable results.
If you want any more help on that method give me a shout, though if you can
handle more advance subjects search for the above as they will in long run
provide more satisfying results.
Hope that helps
Damon.
