Hi.. I tried downloading v4.8 and when extracting the DMG file, I get a message at the end that says "no mountable file system", then stops. I tried three times and got the same message downloading from the download page using the N. America mirror as I'm in the US. Bob

Any sign of Cheetah 3D AppLink coming back to life? Bob

Would I use that same option for painting a normal map, or is that just an export function? Bob

Great! Thanks a lot. Bob

Been out of the 3D loop for a while and I'm sure there have been lots of changes. When I open 3DC, and I want to bring in a model made elsewhere and want to paint texture and displacemnet on it, how do I bring it into 3DC? There are a bunch of options when you open the app and I just want to make sure I'm using the correct or most efficiet one. Thanks! Bob

Thanks link looks perfect! Thanks very much I will investigatae. Bob

So, nobody on here does any 3D printing?? Bob

I've been intrigued about 3D printing lately, but know nothing about it! Is there a tutorial or rules or guidelines to follow when creating a model in 3D Coat for printing? I don't plan on buying a printer, so any recommendations of companies that do so would be great, too. Thanks! Bob

OK. Thanks! Bob

Thanks for the info, pegot! I'm not even sure Cheetah supports P-tex. Looking forward to the new version of Cheetah, too. Hopefully it improves a few of its shortcomings. Bob

Yeah, I can just use an image, but I was wondering more about settings. I know they are different in each application as far as getting optimal results from displacement. Bob

Anyone on here use Cheetah 3D along with 3D Coat? Just bough Cheetah and also have 3D Coat. Cheetah uses a displacement modifier rather than as part of a material system and it seems to work differently than other apps. I was wondering if anyone uses both with displacement maps. Or, are there any examples from 3D Coat around that I can download and test in Cheetah. Thanks! Bob

Thanks very much! Bob

Which one is the latest release version for Mac? Bob

Just purchased my upgrade to version 4, but I'm not sure which one to download. My choices are EU or Canada. I'm in the US. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks. Bob
