I am assigning groups for a model and part of it is a "glove". I'm doing it in UV Mapper because I used Wings to model and it has a weird material/grouping thing that doesn't allow you to label groups in the program (you have to label it as a material, export and then change it to a group) Anyways, if the body parts say "Thumb1, Thumb2, Thumb3" etc, do I need to also divide up the glove Thumb into Thumb1, Thumb2 etc., or can I just call it "Thumb"? or can I just call the whole Thumb, "Thumb1" or "Thumb3"?Will this affect the item's posability? If I have to, I will go back into Wings and divide the fingers up, but it's a pain because then I have to export it and change all the names because Wings adds extra names to the material name.
