    Learning 3dCoat, I'd say it has a steep learning curve, whereas, this program is like 3dCoat - although not nearly as powerful, why can't 3dCoat have these kinds of command controls? Navigation - and the command controls in 3dCoat are not nearly as intuitive as this program, which is like a mini-3dCoat, is there a possibility 3dCoat can revamp the command controls so they're easy to navigate, less convoluted? https://stephaneginier.com/sculptgl/

    Huanted, you're a true artist, why don't you quit your day job and become a true artist like me, and live on fresh air and sunshine like the rest of us? Come to China, I have a great couch you can crash on - and lots of beer in the refrigerator - life is rich!

    Haunted, why not try Patreon or Kickstarter to drum up support to make this add-on? I'm sure there are plenty of people who would sign up to support the development! Put up you need 1000 USD month or so - whatever - and give the add-on away to those who sponsor you, and sell it to everyone else for a donation!

    QUESTION Is this an optimal system for 3dc, and will it increase 3dc ability to handle 1g files? this is opposed to my current system which is a 4-core i7-4790 processor with 32 DDR3 (as opposed to DDR4) and of course an older ASUS motherboard... already have the GTX-GeForce 1080ti Graphics Card. I can't help wondering why 3dc has limits on the file size it can handle, and why a snippet of code or tweak isn't available to increase the virtual memory for 3dc to handle 1g files... IS THIS OPTIMAL FOR 3DC to handle 1g files, or will the limit in 3dc still make it crash? 1 USD = 6.3 RMB (China) CPU AMD RYZEN Threadripper 1950X 16-Core / 32 Threads 3.4 GHz Socket sTR4 8000 RMB MOTHERBOARD ASUS ROG ZENITH EXTREME sTR4 AMD X399 SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.1 Extended ATX AMD Motherboard uses DDR4 2000 RMB MEMORY G.SKILL TridentZ RGB Series 32GB (4 x 8GB) 288-Pin DDR4 SDRAM DDR4 2979 RMB COOLER Enermax Liqtech TR4 360 AIO Liquid CPU Cooler, Support 500W+TDP 859 RMB POWER CORSAIR HXi Series HX1000i 1000W 80 PLUS PLATINUM Haswell 1279 RMB BOX 300 RMB

    NOTE A 1gb+ TIFF file converted to TGA & compressed is abouit 250,000kb, and works fine, no need to increase the size of the TGA to 1gb...

    Carlosan, 256,000kb file 20,480px x 20,480px 16bit compressed RGB @ 300 DPI works! Problem solved! Thank you!

    Thank you! CLARIFICATION I'm importing the large image file into 3dc Smart Material Editor, rather than exporting out from 3dc. CAVEAT This large 1g is perfectly happy in BLENDER, ADOBE CS4 and several other software programs. What's the issue in 3dc, is there a BUG, if so, is it possible to write permission to increase 3dc's ability to handle large files. What, exactly, makes 3dc unstable? Why the file size limit in 3dc? SOLUTION If I cobble together the following hardware configuration, which would be: (4x8)32DDR4 memory, AMD 1950 ThreadRipper 16core, a cooler, 1000w power supply, several 1tb HDrives & my current GTX Geforce 1080ti - and a blazing fast Motherboard, would that SOLVE the 3dc crash problem? CHINA Prices: 1 USD = 6.3 RMB CPU AMD RYZEN Threadripper 1950X 16-Core / 32 Threads 3.4 GHz Socket sTR4 8000 RMB MOTHERBOARD ASUS ROG ZENITH EXTREME sTR4 AMD X399 SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.1 Extended ATX AMD Motherboard uses DDR4 2000 RMB MEMORY G.SKILL TridentZ RGB Series 32GB (4x8GB) 288-Pin DDR4 SDRAM DDR4 2979 RMB COOLER Enermax Liqtech TR4 360 AIO Liquid CPU Cooler, Support 500W+TDP 859 RMB POWER CORSAIR HXi Series HX1000i 1000W 80 PLUS PLATINUM Haswell 1279 RMB BOX 300 RMB TOTAL: 15,417 RMB / 2417 USD QUESTIONS "none file size = 1.17GB" None? None what? No crash? "lzw file size = 25.7 MB" Crashes, yes or no? "TGA is a 'good' substitute?" Means what? Doesn't crash? What 'exporting'? I'm IMPORTING into 3dc. Typo error? You meant importing? 64,000 QUESTION: Is the new hardware a waste of $$$? It won't fix 3dc inability to handle these large files, yes or no? Thank you

    EDIT: Misprint, its 20,480px x 20,480px TIFF RGB @ 300 DPI. Not 20,480kb !!! Sheesh! I make print designs for sublimation fabric printing and use large files - however, 3dCoat is unique in that it presents a limit on the file size I can load into the Smart Materials Editor - beginning with the COLOR texture map - if it is TOO large. Out of Memory with Win7 Prof 64byte, 32DDR3, GTX GeForce 1080ti, 500gb Seagate, loading any image file larger than 10,240px x 10,240px TIFF RGB @ 300 DPI. See illustrated specs & interface. Everything is updated and other than opening large files (1g sized files) everything is smooth, below the above mentioned file size. These files open in Blender and other programs (I.e., Adobe CS4 Fireworks & PhotoShop etc!) without a hitch! Just not 3dCoat! SUGGESTION: Why not have a setting in USER PREFERENCES to adjust the virtual memory allocation? NOTE: Here's a 50 USD tip for designers~! Happy to announce no import duty on clothing imported into the USA as long as its registered TradeMark in China! Phew! China just cut the trademark fees 50%! It's weekend, so not pressed (I'm in China, so holidays for a few days - )... got a few days off! Cheers & thank you!

    Hey thanks! Also some good links here: https://sourceforge.net/directory/os%3Awindows/?q=rgb+to+cmyk&sort=popular

    Is it possible to work in CMYK instead of RGB in 3dCoat? I need to print the images in CMYK and don't wish to deal with transforming RGB to CMYK, nor the art of CALIBRATION to achieve the CYMK.

    Iyad, You're a genius, very nice work! Instead of having one MAPPING Node which contains the Vector Slide commands ALL-IN-ONE, I'd prefer to have (3) texture VECTOR-SLIDER NODES, insomuch, what I'm after a proprietary NODE SLIDER for each of the following actions: DOLLY PAN ROTATE You designed & built FOUR separate proprietary VECTOR SLIDER nodes for the above functions? Something like this (See Attachment) Thank you - a miracle!

    Hi Haunted, Thanks for the tip! Actually, being behind the GREAT CHINESE FIREWALL makes it difficult to get onto Stack, or anywhere outside the Great Wall... however, after awhile I managed to get a post on the group you suggested, thanks again. Cheers, Ced
