UnwrellaConnect for Blender
UV Unwrap and UV Pack Solution
What is UnwrellaConnect for Blender?
UnwrellaConnect for Blender is an extension that seamlessly connects Blender to our standalone UV editing applications, allowing you to run their powerful functionality directly from within the Blender interface - no need to leave your workflow.
It provides automatic, fast, and highly efficient UV unwrapping and packing by leveraging the standalone Unwrella-IO and Packer-IO applications.
Its primary and sole purpose is to provide high-quality UV unwrapping and packing with minimal effort directly in Blender.
Unwrapping or Packing?
