Maya UV Problem when smoothing mesh


#1

Hi everyone,

I’m quite new to Maya UV’ng and I have come across a problem with my UV’s. After laying out all my UV’s and than going to smooth my mesh, it seems all my UV sets want to connect and I end up with some crazy mess. This is interesting because this only happens with one part of my model and not any other part of it. I have tried to find answer on the web but I can’t seem to. I am using Maya 2016 all up to date with services packs.
Below I will put the screenshots; before Smoothing the mesh and afterwards.
Any help will be much appreciated.

Thank you.
