I scanned a model with the iPad Lidar. Exported the file with glTF , OBJ and STL. I tried all the importing options. But all of them imported without texture map. ---

Nomad doesn’t support texturing because it doesn’t support UVs, only vertex painting is supported. You can see a video about the difference here [https://youtu.be/We-2Vcgmmus](https://youtu.be/We-2Vcgmmus) I’ll probably support UV at some point but it’s not top priority. ---

Shame its not a priority ☹ I would be using this in commercial projects if it had tex+uv support. ---

Thread about all this here: > [@Exporting 3D sculpt on Procreate beta / UV issue](https://forum.nomadsculpt.com/t/exporting-3d-sculpt-on-procreate-beta-uv-issue/4211): > > Good morning/good evening! I’m sorry to disturb you! I was lucky enough to be selected for the procreate beta! I wanted to import my 3D which is a Ganondorf head. But only problem, I tried to export in all possible formats but impossible because : “the file has no UV” so it’s quite annoying ahah ! I wanted to see with you how it was possible ! Therefore, I can’t paint on models! So I wanted to see with you how I can proceed! I remain at your disposal for any request! [image] ---
