Issues with OneDrive installed
“3DCoat” is trying to create a user data folder (which contains user settings and assets) inside “C:\Users\USER_NAME\OneDrive\???????\3DCoat”.
That is incorrect. It should create it inside “C:\Users\USER_NAME\Documents\3DCoat”.
To workaround this problem:
Start > start typing “Edit the system environment variables” > Environment Variables… > System variables > New… >
Variable name: COAT_USER_PATH
Variable value: C:\Users\USER_NAME\Documents\My3DCoatData (specify your user name inside)
3DCoat not starting on my Cintiq
I drag the 3DCoat Window to my cintiq tablet to work on it. Still works great.
I close 3DCoat, and I try to start it up again, a window opens on my Cintiq but 3Dcoat stops responding, so all I can do is close the app.
The problem occurs if you move the application to 2nd monitor (Cintiq) and close it while on that screen ? If yes > then move the app back to your primary monitor, save document, close it, and it’ll relaunch.
Suddenly a huge bug occurred that made it impossible to enter on any room

Remove folder (or rename) Docs/3DCoat/UserPrefs/Rooms/CustomRooms.
This will remove local rooms settings. If you don’t want to lose it, find and remove all *.cpp files in that folder.
