I have a question......do you import the whole car shape to do this mapping/uv correction ?
then select the problem parts ?

i'm finding on export to .gp4 format the car shape now has parts fused together which were previously seperate ?

any ideas on this ?

Fixed

can anyone post the coordinators for the armspos, helmetpos, rearlight, onboardcamera, steerpos, viewanglecam and tyrepos please?

only for the renault
