I am working on several projects thatwhere each mesh havehas 3 LOD levels. 

Originally I completed the Highest poly model, applied materials, uv mapped each material and thenmesh, duplicated the object and then optimized the the duplicate model. This worked fine and the material and uvsUVs were set the same on all LODs. Now
Now I have been told that each object andshould only have one material and uvUV map. If I was simply to remove the materials the end result would be overlapping uvsUVs, which is not acceptable obviously. So

So I now face trying to match up the UVs from all the object LODs.Is there a way to copy the UVs from one object to another that has a different number of poly?
