How do you know which things blend and where do I know where to split these? I need help in this one, if somebody could answer my question, I would be more than happy.
At 7:16 : "selecting "L" along the UV edges doesn't work, after they've been cut ; so I have to manually select each one of them" or you can do this : select their vertices, _then_ hit "L". It might be easier sometimes to select vertices L on a selection of vertices will convert to loop(s) from all contiguous points (works in the geometry window too, for modeling), which can also take "turns", so to speak (unlike true edge loops). Another useful feature at times.
I've been using Blender3D as the main workhorse for a 3D project I'mw orking on, but seeing how powerful and flexible Wings is... well... I might just have to switch over to it for the brunt of my modeling work (at least for static, non-animated objects).
Thanks to OBJ being such a compatible format between the two, I can easily transfer them between Blender and Wings as necessary.
I have a question that hopefully somone will be able to answer. I was messing around with one of my models and playing with the "shader" feature. Once i was done i wanted to change the shader back to the default but have no idea how to. It does not have the default as an option in the shader slide bar. Ive uninstalled and re installed the program twice but every time i open it its still on shader 1 of 12. If anyone has any idea on how to change it so there is no shader please let me know. Thanks

This is by far the best UV mapping tutorial for Wings out there. It actually addresses the problems we face when Wings makes strange choices in mapping. Also, the voice is pretty clear and flows nicely with the video. Thanks!!
One possible workflow improvement: if you have *two* edges in an edge loop selected when you press "L", it will select the shortest part of the loop between them.
Constraints do work in the UV window. So it's possible to snap the value to 0 by using shift while moving the mouse instead of using tabbed entry. It might be a little bit faster.
Thx for the knowledge.

i suck at uv mapping cause of it i cant make textures

This is a great intro to UV mapping regardless of what program's being used.

Subbed, and Thanks again!

@PsychoG4M3R Took me a second to understand... Do you mean the scene lighting/shaders like Hemispherical Lighting or Gooch Tone etc?
I too got stuck with those at first but the fix is simple; Just go to "View - One Light" and it should pop back to the default lighting.

I've been looking for EVER today for a video on wings3d 'with voice' and so far your IT..
So , Thanks to you million times over for including your voice so I dont have to follow along with lame text bubbles. This is nice.
Thanks so much for this.
cheers

Instead of using "Scale" you could have used "Flatten".
Gives a perfect straight edge.

Thanks for the tutorial ! I have been having hard times UV mapping my models :D

Excellent tip! Thank you. That's why I love Wings3d so much... the authors really put some thought into the UI and Workflow.

Everything else really good and gets a thumbs up.

Also a great tip! Your right that would be faster. I'm not exactly sure why I always use tab-value but just what feels natural for me hehe.

NIce video. I will look for a lot more by you as I attempt Wings 3D. Thanks
