In nuce: CG generalist Hamid Memar releases a plugin for 3ds Max called “UV Morpher”.
What can UV Morpher do? The plugin is designed to significantly simplify your UV workflow by allowing you to easily deform objects without affecting the associated UV. A case study: You lower your character’s eyelid and the surface becomes unnaturally distorted. With “UV Morpher” in use, the same eyelid deforms more naturally and no longer looks distorted. See also the picture above.
What is behind UV Morpher? Hemar created the plugin with C. It supports multithreading and is freely available to all non-commercial projects.
Click further: The only drawback is that you have to be registered with the (really highly reputable) messenger service Telegram to download it. If this is not an obstacle for you, you can get Hamid Memar’s useful plugin here. Have fun with it!
