MALLET: World Align

World Align provides seamless texture adjustment based on world coordinates, eliminating the need for manual tweaks and adjustments often required when UVs break due to rotations and positional variations. With World Align, simply select the object or specific faces, and with a single click, achieve precise adjustments in an instant.

Consider getting UV Aligner, as the addon also contains World Align in its toolset. UV Aligner enchances your workflow with precise UV adjustments that is essential for both hard and soft surface models - https://inlet.gumroad.com/l/mallet-uv-aligner

While Cube Project is typically considered the default solution, it struggles with consistency and fails to handle angles effectively. When applied to individual faces, it often leads to disastrous results. In contrast, World Align effortlessly handles such challenges and actively prevents issues, ensuring smooth texture alignment every time.
