UVW Mapping does: get skins to line up with the models
I have never used Wings 3d. In 3ds max you click some menu thing...then click UVW Map. Then you just enter things for the skin to follow. like size and what not.

I don't think 3ds Max is compatible with a Macintosh, but I could be wrong.

3ds Max isn't free. Last time I checked, it was about $3,000.
