Is it possible to split a UV map?

I was wondering if it is possible to split a UV map without splitting an object in Blender i.e. splitting a full body meshes map into legs hips etc. and how? You can use seams around the areas that you want separated. Then when you unwrap it, they will all be separate sections. You may need to tweak them a bit afterwards, but it does work.

Can you have multiple UV maps in a mesh?

You can have multiple UV maps for parts of the mesh by creating new UV maps. This can be done by clicking the Add button next to UV maps list (in Object Data tab in the Properties Editor) and unwrapping a different part of the mesh. UV maps always include the whole mesh.

Where are the UV coordinates stored in Blender?

In Blender we can have multiple sets of U and V coordinates. Each set stored in a separate UV Map. The UV Maps live with the mesh object and the list of UV Maps for a specific object can be found in the properties panel. Go to the mesh data tab and find the UV Map section.

Why does my UV mapping take so long?

When a painter is dealing with an asset with multiple materials and tiles, we have to paint masks and painting those masks we have to make unique selections in MARI. If the UV’s aren’t organized, that task might take a long time to complete, and we’ll end up wasting the company money.
