Do you need UV texture for mirror modified mesh?
Yes, I want the UV texture to include the mirror-generated vertices when I’m unwrapping it for the UV map, without applying the mirror to the mesh. Right now it only unwraps the left (original) side of the mesh and then mirrors that over on the right side. Got any idea? encn(encn) April 25, 2018, 2:02am #4
Which is the right side of the UV square?
Put the right wing UV island on the right-hand side of the UV-square, and the left wing will sample it’s texture from the corresponding UV space on the left hand side. Because both the mesh and the UV coords are mirrored, text written on the left-hand side ends up non-mirrored on the model.
Can you draw a scar on a mirrored mesh?
