    I haven't seen many vehicle mods (yes including mine such as the Sunstorm or the Mirena) having a proper skin UVmap (the UVmap that is for skin-making) that matches their associated tris well. I haven't seen much of the official guide mentioning how to make such skin UV texture png from the 3D model itself, considering that many people and I would like to take a step further to increase the mod quality.

    @ibishucovet1987.txt @Vibestation 5 Since you are the people that have some solid experience on how to bake such skin, I am tagging you in here.

    I think you just create two uv layers on your model. I don’t have much experience this but I understand it.

    I'm looking into baking the UV map 1 since the UV map 1 looks like it has to be manually adjusted. Not sure how to arrange it which is why I am asking people with experience about it.

    Yes. That is probably the only major block for me to update my major vehicle mods. I need to know how to bake one properly from the unwrapped UVs and rearrange them properly.
