Hey cpb, this only works if you use “vertex” as the attribute class on the “UV Texture” Node. However i am using a ray sop to transfer the UV's to another object, but then of course the uv attributes are promoted automatically to point attributes and the seams are back. Any Ideas?

see attached,
vertex-split and open torus work, both split the geometry though…

I'm also interested in this method. We want to projected seamlessly on this bass model.



I was thinking polar or cylindrical UV projection would be best. This way textures can keep wrapping around the body portion seamlessly.

I've experimented with UV Flatten but this has a seam. Maybe I'll try UV Pelt again.
