    Hello guys,I have a lil problem, I have made a brick wall in blender,I used materials but the thing is while using materials is that if You want to get correct sizes You need to unwrap every face of mesh one by one and as You are doing it they overlap. The thing is- I can't rearange UV map because the extures on my mesh start moving even thought im using just materials, So i wanted to ask if there is a way to rearange UV map without causing textures to move, maybe there is a freeze optionor smth like that... Any help is appreaciated. adsadasd.png

    I forgot to mention so the reason why I need them not to overlap is because if they overlap, I will not be able to generate proper lightmaps

    No info about this in the blender forums?
    Seems like an easy issue to solve.
    Scale the UV shells until they all fit in 0 to 1 UV space.

    Well, to make sure you understand, the UV determines what happens, not the texture, at least in a general sense. There are a very slight few ways to move UVs while keeping the colors the exact same. One is using Substance Painter's feature that supposedly does it(haven't tried it though, never needed this).

    Is there any reason why you don't have two sets of UVs? Unity supports having one for the material and another for the lightmap. Blender can also do it, or you could just let Unity do it automatically.
