Hi,

I’m trying to get world position of vertex(A) from UV texture vertex (B), by maxscript, can’t find any simple solution :banghead:

The problem is that there is no explicit relation between a vert and a tvert. Only faces are related between geo and UV. So via faces you can get to geo verts.

  1. Get tface
  2. Get gface
  3. Get gVert

It’s because UV’s can be broken up in islands that a uv channel can have many more verts than the geo. So the only relation is the face.
