Member kwhali Posted November 23, 2017 Member Report Share Posted November 23, 2017 I have noticed with a mesh I import with bad geo, decimate does not help much, but when I tried enable proxy with Decimate 16x, it made a much nicer topology(lost detail aside). Unfortunately I cannot seem to replicate this proxy decimation(decimate 16M mesh to 1M is not same results). I can use the clean clay brush and manually get similar result, but would like this decimation approach proxy feature uses vs current decimation method.

Carlosan Posted November 23, 2017 Report Share Posted November 23, 2017 Which proxy method are you using ? Decimate or Reduce/Resample ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like I mention Decimate. Does this proxt get stored somewhere on disk or can I export it somehow. 3DC doesn't seem to have similar decimation via other methods that worked so well. I have tried resample as well, this worked badly, perhaps is ok for voxel but on surface it destroy alot of shape by making every triangle fit into cube grid type of look(voxel style I think). The scene have some small fine detail and many fine curve surface, so decimation need to not lose shape too much. Regular decimation avoid shape loss that resample does, but regular decimate did not adjust density district of triangles, areas with too many or too few triangles kept these qualities. But proxy decimation fixed these and made good distribution, would you like comparison pictures to help show what I mean? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carlosan Posted November 23, 2017 Report Share Posted November 23, 2017 In proxy mode, you can export it using RMB over the layer > Export object. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member kwhali Posted November 24, 2017 Author Member Report Share Posted November 24, 2017 Thanks I will try that, is it a feature request I should make for another decimation method without needing to go through proxy/export? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carlosan Posted November 24, 2017 Report Share Posted November 24, 2017 Sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
