  1. ok I just had to in Blender uv unwrap and bake the textures then i pack image (png) then export as obj and I get my colors and its own layer over on 3dc side so I have part of my problem done.
  2. ok I tried the FBX fix but Im not sure its in blender is it the same version # 0.3.2 I still have the ui in tools and not in its own tab in blender.i try to export from blender it give me a Traceback (most recent call last)! up top. I tried twice. Also I still don't get any Color material from blender over to 3dc is that normal . when I use obj. from blender to 3dc per pixel paint. mmmmm im going to try it one more time mifth tools master here I come...
  3. does it keep track (show you) what colors you have used on your model? meaning if I use say 8 different colors on say 3 different layers and save it then reopen it later ill still be able to see my colors that I used or have a history layer. also can you copy all paint used on a layer or object and paste /apply it on a different part of your model. it drives me crazy and waste time trying to find what colors I used on models. I use blender and when I create a new color/material it stays there and I can name it also when I use the color picker it gets chosen but I use it mostly for modeling thanks.
  4. is there a way too not have the preview window at all . I know you can minimize it but I don't even want that on my screen.
  5. I was also having this same problem and had given up on getting the material and texture in from blender ( I use the simple app-link) which is awesome but also thought it would be auto-loaded in.
  6. Time lapse was cool to see after watching I am going to try using Vox Layer looks like a time saver .I am new to 3dc and not much sculpting looks like Pinch and Rapid 2 are used most .Just wondering what software you will export out too.
  7. Same here Hammers thanks for the 5 step program it will help out a bunch thanks !
  8. Try in Smart Materials > + new the smart materials properties > name it what you want COLOR is where you add your color photo also for preferred mapping use From Camera. when that's done click on your photo and use 100% white. I added a new folder just for my photos. Stencils I think are only black and white.
  9. Color Swatches should be just like Smart Materials as in that easy to set up a new group and folder/swatch. You can load a swatch up that you made and when you do the name should show under where it says color swatches. You should be able to group them inside the swatch click n drag around or a bar /grid to organize them in groups ill take anything . Would love to have it linked/show me to which layer I have used a swatch color on . So much could be done in this area . I like to setup my colors used per each model meaning have color swatches open but then a second colors USED going into another and then I can save that one with the model. When I use the color picker on a model that color could be also highlighted in the color swatches . One last thing I like using HEX# just all on one line .
  10. Hey Britain the app link works for me in per pixel painting sometimes I need to hit the Export 2-3 times in blender to get it in 3dc side. I cant transfer any color info/material from blender over to 3DC it says its a UV set name.3DC into Blender works fine the 3 texture maps are named KD=color KS=spec and Bump . Can you get the color /mat from blender over to 3dcoat or no? thanks.
  11. Hey mifth ok it works great, Thanks for all your help and the add-on. app-link enabled in 3 .. 2...1 ... export object then BAM
  12. ok I downloaded and unzipped mifthtools thanks now in blender I go to addons from file and go to io_simple_3dcoat there are 2 _init_.py and simple_coat.py are both the same I tried both but no go for the add-on.thanks for your time on this.
  13. do I have to sign up at github in order to copy the simple_coat.py and yes I have the official add-on so I will uncheck it and do this one thanks mifth for your time helping.
  14. Yes its there but shorter as in just Export type (DROPDOWN) list and 2 buttons Update and Transfer. All the rest that use to be there is gone as in / apply modifiers,texture path,export type, im thinking I need to set the exchange folder to 4.5.03a ? IN 3DCOAT there use to be a option when the app-link was set in the drop down list under file I think to send it over. As long as I know the app-link works with these 2 versions I will keep at it. Thanks for your time Carlosan
  15. I am using Blender 2.75a and 3dcoat 4.5.03 I enable the add-on ver. 3.521 does this ver work with 2.75a ? it seams broken on both ends . any help/direction would be helpful .ty
  16. PER PIXELPaint Room >spline text tool> Model has UVs on it. Is there a way to say get back to what I call edit mode after I already hit the Enter key? i find myself using the eraser tool to get rid of the text is there a Delete text button? I then retype the same text just to change the color of the text or the same text but add on to it.(i can and do use layers for each new text i do but only have 7 and also save and reload) I have tried the paint bucket tool to re color the same text. Just seeing if i am missing something is all Thanks. also If i have only some blue text on its own layer and i turn off all other layers and paint on just the text with red but no it just paints over the text and it stays blue as if its untouchable the model also gets painted does the text get put in the model itself?

  18. ok I think I have a screenshot .the upload gave me a page not found reason: segment "community" was not a keyword for a postvarset blah blah ID=109.the screenshot was there just got that message. Anyway I hope it shows up thanks.
  19. win 8.1 ver 4.1.17d cuda dx64 I open up 3dc splash screen,Voxel sculpting,i pick / click on the Cube, all is fine I then just hit enter or apply and the default Cube (117,608 tris) has 3 of its edges have a bevel on them (the cube itself is has soft edges but these 3 are very different ) in view 4 (left) it would be the top and left edges.Is this normal and I just have not noticed it before? Same thing if I do a blank start up and add a primitive cube.Also if I choose splash screen surface sculpting ,CUBE hit enter it is fine in (s) surface mode hard edges but if I go to voxel (v) it then has the same 3 bevel edges there just not as bad. Even if I res+ it up 2 times (1,910,132) there still there just softer. Thanks for your time.
  20. That's where the 4 swatches are skin,websafe, wheel64 and windows .if I delete one of these..... see above ?
  21. ver 4.1.17D win 8.1 (blah) dell i7 onboard nvida 745 i think card. Paint Room : Is there a way to see what color swatches you have used while painting a model or be able to mark as used(green dot on it) as to give me a chance to see which it was. i have 4 swatches skin,websafe,etc if i delete one of these to make a custom swatch i lose them? how does one make a aco. file would be nice if the color picker Tool Option had a Auto save colors as used and put right into your swatch for that model.Can you open 2 color swatches as to transfer over? would like to setup and save out color swatches per model or import is there already aco files out there with say robot,woods,etc? note some times when i Right click on the swatches the delete menu does not show.after a few trys or reload its there. New user x-mas gift to myself. its a great program but aggravating also.1 last ? is FPS low # say 30 or 600 better cuda dx64
