UV Unwrapping in 3ds Max | Area by Autodesk
In this multi-part series, you learn the basic concepts and workflows of UV Unwrapping mapping method and taught through several learning scenarios. UV Unwrapping is very useful when the conventional mapping methods for projecting textures on a 3D model are no longer sufficient. When a model is too complex for simple planar, cylindrical or spherical projections, then you need to unfold or unwrap the mesh so that it becomes easier to project a 2D image onto it.
