Hi. I'm new with CINEMA4D, and I've been reading about mapping. I use 3DSMAX too, and I usually work with a kind of mapping called UVW Unwrap, well this is a tool that unfold the mapping of a complex object in a planar projection, and lets you modify the way it is projected in the object surface.

I would like to know if there is an analog tool for this kind of mapping in CINEMA 4D. Or something to map a very complex object...

is there?:thumbsup:

cinema has some mapping modes inbuilt for you to generate uv maps, the manual covers how to use and set them up, there's also a plugin pack called MaxUV tools that i wrote, and that is now integrated into bodypaint 2, but is still available for free download form teh library section of my site
