I see now. Then i must agree i think. It seems its a 3d coat related issue. Check your brush settings , play a bit and see if it changes the effect. Also i am thinking pressure from the tablet , as i had some issues with wacom myself. Changed the pressure from tablet drivers and this solved it. If you have win 7 , also disable the pen service , it causes issues.

In which software have you created the texture? Can you also upload the original? (not exported from 3d coat)

Everything looks ok here. Hmmm.....

8 bit RGB is fine. I dont think its possible to see the bit in 3c coat. Saying about drivers , because it gave me some issues , when other software were ok. I updated the drivers and everything came to normal. Can you send me the texture so i can test it myself for you? Just a cropped area will do.

What i meant is Open the texture you are importing for texturing in 3d coat with photoshop, Go , image --> mode. Is it 8bit? 16bit ? ----------------------------------------- Also if you are saying that it gives the same corrupt look when exported from 3d coat , its sounds like a) driver issue that corrupts the image when importing to 3d coat , and then 3d coat export its corrupted and or 3d coat setting. Can you upload the texture you are using or send via pm?

Check on Photoshop. On 16bit i get similar results.

Can you export and check how it looks on another software? This will help to determine if its a driver issue or texture issue , or 3d coat settings.

Also check your textures , is it 8 bit or 16 bit?

I believe its a driver issue probably , as i cant reproduce this....

Does this happens on a cube? Can you do a test with a simple cube?

What is your texture / uv size? 1024 x 1024? (thats low) Are you painting on straight on Voxels??

Very nice , keep it up.

Modest and honest , my favourite compination. At least problem is solved

You are obviously an experienced user , just a thought though , you applied the new uv to the model right? --> Apply uv set

Vox extrude will do the trick , it will be on its own layer and you can easily manipulate it , in order to look like snow. Tonys says the same , and carlosan both ways will work as well. Another way is to paint the snow in paint room with normals....

You probably have Edu version as carlosan stated.

Greetings AnD4D , I see , if you are allowed , kindly upload the 3d model so we can see at least why it crashes. I hardly have crashes with 3c coat honestly speaking. You can also download the latest stable and run it with the steam key.

When i paint in Substance Painter , this method (depending on the model of course) --> Export from the sculpt room Dense Quads show in picture or you could test projected quads as well. This might not give you a quality mesh, Test it. Now import that model into the Paint Room for Per Pixel painting and a uv map will automatically be created (as Digman just said) works. You can always merge everything into a piece , autoretopo (do make some trials to find the correct settings) then create auto seams or manual uv , bake and export. Its a lot easier than it sounds. Do a test with a simple shape / voxel or hardsurface model to get the feeling.

Much appreciated for the reply Javis.

I would like to ask if there is work done on retopo and autoretopo as well , or only focused on pbr for 4.5. Thank you.

If i have time , i will give it a try...

AWESOME now we can 3d-coat everywhere!!!

This could be the best , ultimate , addition to 3d coat , as , as it is right now , it offers allready so much.

Thank you very much Carlosan , seen all wacom products from the very start , unfortunately i find them all out of my budget at this period. This is going to be a hard case for me , i see it now....
