Transfer textures make it possible to use original textures on models even after the UVs have been changed on a model.
ΒΆ How it works
When baking transfer textures, the U and V coordinates of the original UVs are baked into a texture. Each value on the transfer texture specifies a position on the original UV map.
Original model vs remeshed model with new UVs and transfer texture
In the material editor of a DCC software of choice, set the RG outputs of the transfer map and plug them into the UV coordinates of the original texture to remap the UVs.
