I've been trying for awhile now to produce something resembling a UV map out of AC3D. I'm alway juuuuust shy of filling in the UV map for whatever I'm makind

Here's what I'm doing
1. Use UV Map Tool, set to spherical along the Y-axis
2. Go to TCE and select the object.

My issues is I always have the odd vertice and line that are out of bounds of the UV map area, which will not work, mainly cause I've tried.

My questions is, if I use the TCE to edit vertices and line positioning, will edit be included if I then export as a .tga for SL?

Frankly, I'm at my wits end and close to deleting this. I've spent close to 40 hours now futzing with this program to zip avail, the only thing I can manage to export are the pre-made sculpties right, anything else I do produces so much crap when used in SL. This a great, easy to use program, but it simply isn't doing what I need
