@hila6783 do not select with "UV", select with "Object mode" (outside of the uv texture editor).

With the model selected, click on the create PSD...

I hope i've helped. :)

@hila6783 And you still have the same problem? Interesting... it could either be a glitch in your Maya or are you sure that you remembered to apply cylindrical mapping to the model?

@hila6783 Thanks for the positive feedback. Have you applied a Lambert shader to the model? And is the model still selected when you open the Create PSD Network window?
