UVs are the key to taking full advantage of 3D software. In fact, you can’t do much without a good UV set. Many Important functions such as Displacement concept and Texturing are directly depended on an object’s UVW mapping. So I’ve decided to show you how to create qualified UVs inside 3ds Max.
The UVW Unwrap modifier has a function named Pelt Mapping, which is a perfect tool for creating UVs for objects. I think in most cases, you don’t need anything else for mapping objects. The Pelt Mapping method gives you sufficient ability to do most of the mapping job without even hand editing UVs. It works well for organic and inorganic objects.
Firstly you should have a clean mesh, meaning that it is better if your mesh has been created with all quadrangular faces, and has no extra vertices or any such cases. When you’ve got the mesh correct, then you are ready for the next step. So open up your object scene, select your object, navigate to the Modify panel/modifier list and apply a UVW Unwrap modifier from the list. Pelt function needs you to define the Pelt Seams on your mesh, so it can pull out the mesh using those seams. Thus it’s very important that you place your seams carefully. In my case I was working on a head mesh and I so defined the seams as shown in Fig.01 & Fig.02.
