3d-io has unveiled Unwrella-IO, a standalone application designed to revolutionize the tedious process of manual UV unwrapping. This intuitive tool caters to 3D artists, designers, and game developers, providing automated UV map generation with minimal setup.
Specialized Unwrapping Modes
Unwrella-IO boasts three distinct unwrapping modes to accommodate various 3D geometries:
- Hard Surface Mode: Tailored for architectural structures, mechanical models, armor, and buildings, this mode ensures clean and efficient UV layouts.
- Organic Mode: Ideal for characters, creatures, and smooth surfaces, it generates seamless UVs with minimal effort.
- Mosaic Mode: Perfect for photogrammetry scans and high-poly, irregular models, this mode effortlessly processes complex triangulated geometry.
Optimized UV Packing
Leveraging UV-Packer technology, Unwrella-IO delivers high-performance UV compression, automatically maximizing available UV space while preserving texel density. The interactive UV Tile Generator and unit scale system provide users with full control over UV layouts, ensuring optimal results for any project.
User-Friendly Features
The application includes an efficient drag-and-drop UV channel manager, allowing users to copy, swap, and combine UVs instantly. The Looks Shelf enables quick shading adjustments with custom MatCaps, while the Stash feature streamlines asset handling, keeping imported models easily accessible without repeated reloading. Unwrella-IO is built for speed, precision, and ease of use, helping artists focus on creativity instead of spending hours on technical adjustments.
