Also UV/image editor on the right only shows the same UV map that is on the left. UV maps are different, I just used the second image as a quick mask. The way this is usually done (assuming you want to stay with one material for everything, you might not) is with something called multi-tile UVs.

What do I need to make a UV map?

You can either download the floor texture used above or use some of the textures included within our free model samples. Just log in to your chocofur account in the upper navigation bar and browse the free files.

How do I pack two UV maps into one?

Easy enough to do in most packages. Pack the maps using your favorite texture editing app, Photoshop for example. Put two 1024s together into one 2048×1024. Then adjust the UVs to match. Scale each 50% on the U axis, and reposition each on U to match the texture. Create a material, load the packed maps, assign to both meshes.

Can you combine PBR maps into one texture map?

We have the standard PBR maps for each obejct and want to repack the UVs AND textures so that we can use one texture per map (one albedo, one roughness etc) for the combined meshes which had single maps with unique UVs.
