I'm trying to properly export my Cinema4D hair groom to Unreal, and I manage to get the splines via Alembic export, but the Alembic file seems to lack the "RootUVs" on import to Unreal.

This is neccessary to texturize the fur/hair according to the UVs of the base mesh it is bound to (not sure what the process here is, sampling on binding or writing on export).

Does anyone have some idea how to get hair over to Unreal with RootUVs or how to implant this info with a script solution afterwards into the alembic cache somehow?
This thread and maya script sounds like it tries to solve this, too:
https://devtalk.blender.org/t/adding-uv-data-to-alembic-on-export/24463

Cinema Version is 2024, maybe this is solved in newer verions?

Thanks for ideas!

Bumping this real quick - no one? Would there be any workaround perhaps to get symmtrrized uvs?

Hi dear devs!
I'm looking for a plugin that recreates this functionality:

Symmetrisation of UV Islands, ofc same topology, same point count etc.

Symmetric translation of points in a character (yes I know C4D sort of can do it now, but I found it not precise enough in its search threshold somehow...) would be also nice add on.

Maybe as a one time function to make it perfect symmetrical even with very near points - maybe even topological?
And since PlugIns regularily seem to break, is there a way to have it done in Python?

We had this Functionality once in C4D and lost it again sadly - would be gret if anyone would be up for the task - I can see if I can contribute to it financially...

Thanks a lot!
