  1. Hi guys,

    if I am not wrong some of you are skeptic about new 3D Coat forums, so let me try to remove that skepticism and share with you some tips. As I am running on my own pretty big community for Cinema 4D with IPS, I am more than happy to share with you some tips to make your stay more enjoyable.

     

    Step one.

    What I advise you to do first time you come to this forums is to play with the settings, starting from FOLLOW button in any topic.

    Once you press that FOLLOW button, click on the "Change how the notification is sent" and that will bring you to another screen

    As you can see, here, you are able to set everything how you want, my suggestion is to set everything like I did on this image and from that point, your enjoyment on this forums will be much better. You will be notified for the things you want. No more searching and wasting time.

     

    The bottom section of the screen is pretty much self explanatory and you can set setting how you prefer.

    For now that would be it, if somethings pop up on my mind I will update this topic as some features are theme based. We have some neat features with custom theme on our forums.

     

    So guys, I hope I managed to help at least to some degree. Enjoy! :)

     

    Cheers,

    Igor

    I find that the user can 'kill' Autopo, usually by too many splines or crossing splines. Try letting the algorithm do the work and see if it can give what you want.

    Problem is I dont have a clue what I am doing as I am a complete newbie in 3D Coat...when I want to switch model to voxelize, my mesh just goes crazy.

     

    EDIT: its a simple model really, but I just cant resolve the issues.

    Thanks for the 'head's up', Igor! The fact that you're an Admin on the Cafe means your more familiar with a forum's ins and outs than me.:o

    Hehe, yea, I will not say I know more, but I am very familiar with the IPS as I am admin at C4D Cafe. Pretty much running everything by myself. If you guys need some assistance, feel free to send me a PM or whatever you guys prefer. ;)

    P.S. - auto retopo, its killing me. :(

    Howdy Igor, you will find this forum as congenial as the Cafe. There are numerous tutorials on all aspects of 3D-Coat  and Retopology and Painting are well covered. Painting now is augmented by PBR shaders that you can create or get from other users.

    Hi Toni, thanks for taking time to drop a reply, very much appreciated. Ill have to sniff out this forum little better. :)

     

    Regards,

    Igor

    P.S.- why there is no notification for when I get reply or my post being approved?

    EDIT: I just realized you didn't tag me or quote @Tony Nemo and I dont follow the thread, so probably thats the case. So little tip for everyone who doesn't know, use @ for tagging  someone like this @SIgor and that person should be notified.

  5. Hello guys, greeting from Croatia. I am hoping to get grasp of 3D Coat as it seams very promising. My main goals to do with 3D Coat is UV unwraping and painting. My primary tools are Cinema 4D and Maxwell which I love to the core, lets hope 3D Coat will serve just as those two. My primary concerns are pretty much only workflow, some things just dont make sense, but thats maybe just me. Lets hope for the best. 

     

    Is there any good tutorial you guys would suggest regarding interface and workflow? i would be very grateful. :)

     

    Happy modeling and let the best team wins on soccer World Cup in France. 

     

    Regards,

    Igor

  6. Hi guys, I had to SignUp just to try and explain some things regarding IPS forums as I come from pretty large IPS Cinema 4D community where I administrating everything.

    When you go to UNREAD CONTENT you have many options to setup, what you want to read and how you prefer it. 

    Few things like "My Activity Streams" on the top left can be tailored as you prefer and includes default Streams like "Content I started" etc. What you really want to check is "Create New Stream", you can tailor here what ever you prefer, once you are there I am sure you will realize how cool this system really is and how is intuitive to use.

    I hope I managed to help you guys. I hope Ill soon add 3D Coat to my arsenal. Its a sad story that it cant be purchased via PayPal, so I must see what my options are.

     

    Cheers,

    Igor
