Question:
I want to create geometry only with displacement to be manufactured with a CNC machine based on a low poly object imported on Paint Room.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Answer:
Once you create apply get a Smart Material to be applied to the mesh on Paint Room > PPP<\/p>\n\n\n

\n

Use this command to convert the normal map to mesh displacement on Sculpt Room -> Paint to Sculpt Baked Text & Subd<\/p>\n\n\n
