Zip Merge is an add-on designed to simplify the process of merging complex geometry, preserving UVs, and avoiding issues that arise with traditional merge methods. It is especially useful for merging seams on clothing where UV integrity is crucial.

Key Features:

  • Efficient Merging: Merge complex geometry without the unwanted merges that can occur with merge by distance.
  • Preserve UVs: Maintain UV mapping integrity, essential for workflows that require blending between UV and 3D meshes.
  • User-Friendly Operation: Merge vertices between mesh islands by selecting a start vertex and running the ZipMerge operator.
  • Customizable Iterations: Set the desired number of iterations for the merging process.
  • Corner Detection: Version 1.2 introduces the ability to terminate merging when a corner is detected, enhancing control over the merging process.
