Why we like it

Earns its spot in the superhive library as a free, GPL-licensed utility that keeps UV-to-UV image transfer to a short Shader Editor workflow.

What is Transfer Images?

Transfer Images is a free add-on for Blender that transfers images from one UV map to another. The workflow runs inside the Shader Editor: select one or more image nodes, then open the Transfer Images popup from the N-Panel under the Node section.

From that popup you pick a source UV map and a target UV map, then click OK to complete the transfer. The process is meant to take just a few clicks, and it accepts multiple image nodes in a single operation.

The add-on supports Blender versions 3.6 through 5.1 and is released under the GPL license. Documentation is provided, and a demo video is available. It sits at rank 797 in the superhive library. Feedback and queries reach the developer, Amandeep, by email.

Does Transfer Images work with Blender 5.1?

Transfer Images supports Blender versions 3.6 through 5.1, so it covers a broad span of releases including Blender 5.1. If you're running a version within that range, the add-on is compatible. For any version outside that range, the developer's page is the place to confirm current support before installing. Once it's in place, you work with the add-on from the Shader Editor's N-Panel, under the Node section, so a build that includes that panel is what you need.

How do I transfer images between UV maps with Transfer Images?

Transfer Images runs from inside Blender's Shader Editor. Select any image node, or several image nodes at once, then open the N-Panel and click Transfer Images under the Node section to bring up a popup panel.

The transfer is meant to take just a few clicks, and the multi-node support lets you handle more than one image in a single pass.
