    UV Mapping Errors

    Everytime I make a map I get UV map errors. It doesn't matter how large the map, I always get it. I tried re-UVing it and it still doesn't work. I only use Planar or Box uv types and only tile it to 5x5 times or so. I don't understand why this always happen, I can't do shit.

    Use box uvw, dont tile it.
    Make the sizes all the same, length, width and height.
    Make the tile 1 and 1

    Select all verts in map and weld at a value of 0.01.

    Re: UV Mapping Errors

    I did. It didn't change. I tried it again anyways, got the same error.

    There are some blue marked polygons in the wrl but there doesn't seem to be anything wrong with them. They were uv'd just as the others were

    Delete the faces, on the model, where the blue (markers) are and create new faces, re uvw.

    Re: UV Mapping Errors

    select the blue face and all the faces around it then add the UVW unwrap. open the editor and check to see that the bad triangle isn't way off from the group.if not (in the uv editor) then select all the verts then in tools, weld selected. if you still get the error try moving the uv verts around a little and make sure the uvw of the bad tri doesn't look like a straight line. keep doing this bit by bit until all the errors are fixed. this usually works for me.
