UV Mapping Toolbox for Maya - Free Update 2

Update 1 video here

Original video here

Gridify UVs video can be seen here

In this free update the UV mapping toolbox now stays on top of the UV editor on a second monitor. I've also added a orient shells button, and a unfold UVs button. As well, all buttons now work with the repeat last command hotkey. Speed up your workflow with this handy tool, quickly UV map your model and set texel density at the same time in Autodesk Maya.

You've made my university life so much easier using your pack. Literally the only things I had to keep doing last semester was the layout. I recall thinking ''Damn, it'd be nice if he added that to the pack.'' 1 month later I realize you've read my mind. Thank you so much!

Thank you for the continued support/updates on these scripts Malcolm!

Hey, I just purchased your Mel Script Pack. A couple of thoughts, first what a fantastic set of tools. I love it when smart people make simple tools to use. I mean some tools are very cool but they are hard to learn. Not your stuff! I love the color coding and the clean and minimalist approach you applied to the menus. And I can't believe the price. I was about to buy some scripts from an other dude, but then I found your page on Gumroad and the decision was a no brainer. All this for under twenty bucks. Plus, I know you wrote these to make your workflow faster, but I don't know if you understand just how useful scripts like these are for an artist like me. I have been using Maya since it was available, way back in the 90s. So I should know my way around the interface, and to some degree I do, but there are aspects of Maya I don't use that much, and because of that I forget little things now and again. I hate UV mapping and I don't need to do it all that often, but when I do it is a pain in the neck. But now that I have your UV mapping tool I have a lot less to remember. I am an artist, I never could write code or even mel scripts of my own, so I have always been at the mercy of the GUI. When someone like you comes along and makes tools like this available you not only speed up my workflow you also make it easier for me to recall the workflow, to clear away the clutter and make it possible to focus on just the few functions I need to worry about. Especially your gridify tool. I mean planar projections are easy to deal with but UV mapping odd shapes like spheres and tubs etc is a big pain, but you have now made it so simple for dopes like me. I have had to relearn how to do that task so many times because I never do it enough to have it stick in my thick head LOL Plus I am new to the PBR pipeline and your tools seem to be aimed at the gaming workflow. I come from a film and TV background mostly VFX. We never worried about low res proxy models etc, but now I find myself working more and more in the game world, so again, your tools like the Normal map thingy, Brillant! I love this Sh***! I'll say it again, to you, this is just a way to speed up your workflow. But for people who can't write Mel or Python, this is Voodoo, Black Magic of sorts. I love it. I know this is so nerdy, but I wanted to really make the point. Please keep it up. Thank you.

You are the man! All of your scripts have been something I've wanted for so long. Is there a way to change out the checker pattern with another one?

I was wondering how did you add a Custom Shelf to the modeling toolkit on the right side. Really nice updates, im going to buy and try it.

Bought the full pack, really excited to use it in Maya 2018 but I can't seem to find service pack 2 anywhere? Went through my account and looked under Maya but there is no 'Enhancements' button. Any idea where I would be able to find it?

hello, would you like us to create some objects for a medieval map?

[nuuutik]

is there a way to tell which resolution you want to layout on?
