Model UVs don't align to texture in blender - Lumelore - 08-01-2021

I've ripped a Cranidos model from pokemon sun and when imported into blender the UVs do not align with the texture at all. They do align perfectly with the normal map though. I exported the model using Ohana3DS and when viewed in there the texture is aligned properly. I did try some solutions I saw on other threads where I used math nodes with the vector however it did not work.

In cases like this, you need to double the horizontal canvas size of the diffuse texture (in other words, 256x256 -> 512x256), and fill that with a mirrored copy of the texture to match how the normal map looks. Should look something like this if done correctly:

Not every texture needs to be mirrored, though, so use the normal maps as a reference point -- if they're symmetrical and the diffuse isn't, apply the method above.
