In retopo room, it would be pretty cool to get some of Blender's functionalities like the circle one on these screens:

A Better tool to position pivot for material painting while using Mappings cylinder, for example: On this image, I have to place the center of my cylinder between arms, so the repetition can be projected correctly on the sleeves. The use of the yellow gizmo is useless, it is only working for scale. The use of floats for X, Y, Z is hard to manage, i have to spend time to find the right value check between ± values... takes too much time

Yeah, I'm also using this technic, actually because there is no other way to make it… But it's nice for 1 or 2 vertices, and it starts becoming really annoying when the number of vertices increase... But the problem is a little bit different in my case, because the topology may look good from the face, but when you rotate the camera you can see that vertices are snapped on the other side of the mesh. Because cloth are thin, the "snap to normal" is good because the normal are really near to each other. So i simple process would be to select faces and use a "Push faces in normal direction", the same as the Z-Bias do but for real.

A missing option witch could help a bit in retopology, While snapping a retopo over a really thin mesh, like clothes for exemple, often the vertices are snappedon the wrong side of the Ref Mesh. A quick to fix it would be to select retopo and push vertices or face in the normal direction, witch is not available in the options Another way would be to snap from camera view angle, i don't know...

Ok, this is not the problem i am administrator

Hi Carlsosan, I just tested, but nop, it's still ignore all folders. what do you mean about account permission, is it windows folders permission ? if so, i think yes, everything is autorized

i have a problem using the migration master from 2021 to 2022. I'm pretty sure it has already worked but actually my smart material list is looking like the default installation of 3dcoat and i tried multiple times to make the migration without any change. I Checked my old 3Dcoat 2021 and can clearly see all the folders and materials. I tried different folders but no result. I had to manually copy / paste them in windows.

Maybe something I have missed during those years, or maybe a feature missing, while using attach to layer, a lot of times I prefer to disable the normal map because I never fund any option to set the scale of the material accordingly to the size of the model I need, like on this screenshot: I mean, I Know I can set the size while the material is not attached to the layer, but the size will be reset if I swap to another material, what I usually do while i want to check for best choice in context.

I solved it by reimporting the mesh in the sculpt room

This morning I opened my file and got this result: I tried to reopen it, but got the same result. The problem is related to the voxel mesh I Imported as surface

Nope, that was not this point, but i fund the right function to correct it. It's related to ZBIas, if i drop it down to 0% it's completly removed

i mage this short video to explain my problem

Also, I have to say, I never noticed before today that there was police color option inside this panel, and does it really works ? Because I have always used main color from the brush and never seems to get any multiply or any change from this color. And another point about the police size, because I directly use the distance between the marks to get it at the right size, I never used that option too.

Hi Carlosan, I know OK allows to see the selected font, but I mean, it's so odd to have to close/ open/ close/ re-open and so on, to see font one by one, and it takes so much time sometimes before finding the right font. What would be great would be to use mouse roll up down to swap fonts, and don't have to click OK. Or something like that, more dynamic.

C'est un problème récurent entre les différents softs de 3D et de moteurs de jeux. Par exemple, Unity utilise les Axes X, Y, Z en pointant Y vers le haut et Z vers l'avant, tandis qu'UE5 demandera de pointer X vers l'avant. Dans 3DsMax et Blender, Z pointe vers le haut, tandis que dans Maya, c'est Y. C'est pourquoi dans 3DCoat tu as la possibilité, dans l'import classique, d'inverser Y et Z avec cette option : Dans la chambre de voxel, une simple rotation à 90° fera l'affaire

While working on painting textures, this is commonly something I miss a lot when I have to search the right font I need for the texture I'm making. Like the paint tool which allow visualizing the result before applying it over the mesh, a similar function for the font may be a wonderful improvement.

I'll give it a try, I have always been using reference import for my retopo works and never been annoyed by poor fps in the old versions... Anyway, I just discovered another problem

since many years i'm complaining about the shader in retopo room that is not really efficient to seen the model. I suggest to get something similar to Blender viewport rendering "cavity" wich make all the diference.

Hi, I really get bad performances in the retopo room wince version 2022. i made a short video :

it seems to be related to the camera...

I just activated the simetry on my mesh and got this:

Hello, i'm actually using painting tool and more specifically the Gradient tool with opacity fading. because my workflow is like that, i have to paint a monster with different type of colors for each kind of element (earth, water, etc.) and because the gradient tool is extremelly usefull can give beautifull results i use it a lot. but i have to make a lot of changes for each part of the body i have to paint * by the number of elements required, and it's a bit frustrating to have to constantly check/ uncheck and move to the places i need it. so i was thinking, "it would be cool to store the vectore 3 for start and end position and simple select the one i need for the next part, or to have the ability to set multiple gradients at the same time, because they are only painting on parts of an object.

i just reported this bugs on mantis:
