    I am following along with Gabriel Williams’ ProBuilder Simple Objects - Crates and Barrels Tutorial video (
    ). I auto-stitch the UVs together and so far so good.

    My UVs before adding edge loops and scaling


    At about 6:05, he adds an edge loop to the barrel and scales it out. Then he adds two more edge loops and scales those out. When he returns to the UV editor, his UVs look like this:

    Gabriel Williams’ UVs after adding edge loops and scaling at 7:32. Still rectangular and non-overlapping.


    I get a different and unfortunate result when I do the same:

    My UVs after adding edge loops and scaling – bowed out and overlapping


    Note that Gabriel’sUVs are still rectangular while mine have bowed out and overlapped. They have also become unstitched.


    Would someone please explain to me what I am doing wrong or what setting I need to use to get Gabriel's results?


    Thanks,


    Larry

    Hi! You'll need to set your UVs to "Manual", so they don't try to auto-update :)
