Thanks. stutsutcliffe, you're right, hence the loco in perspective. No "design choice", I was so fascinated that I forgot being still in ortho... Yeh, my site is technical, don't know why I love those old military machines... BTW, I appreciate your entries in the forum.

Famous British WW2 General Claude "The Auk" Auchinleck, stopped Rommel at El Alamein in July 1942. My first bust in 3D Coat, another step on the steep learning curve, hope you like it... The Auk is gone...

Is there a way to import a whole directory of obj files into Paint Room with the same import options ?

Strange issue when exporting from Coat and loading the maps into Marmoset Toolbag 3. Basically the same workflow as Chipp's above, but all maps messed up somehow... Any ideas ?

For Surface Materials again : "Steel", "Steel1", Steel2". Original Material for all three obj : "Steel". TenderRearStep.mtl TenderSuspension.mtl TenderWheels.mtl

Carlos, "Treat materials..." is OFF.

Hi everybody, I have splitted one large obj into several smaller ones in order to get several uv maps. The objects share the same (surface) materals (e.g. "steel") on export. After importing the objects into one scene, these same surface materials are splitted into different materials ("steel1", "steel2" etc.) in the surface material editor. Is there a way to reunite/rename them after import so I can texture the surface material "steel" again on all different objects ? TIA Oliver.

As I said, I'm unable to select the "barrel" Paint Object in order to move it to the new uv set.

In UV Room, I have isolated a Paint Object in order to move all of its islands from the "Grey" uv map to the new "Barrel" uv map. No chance to select the whole Paint Object, selecting all respective islands in UV Preview is inappropriate due to the sheer amount of islands. Any idea ? TIA.

Ty, Carlos !

How to switch from "icon-only" view to "icon-plus text" view in menus ?

Thanks, Carlos, I'll try this.

Thanks, Carlos. Could I make the png to insert larger or smaller instead ?

Why the png image applied by the spline image tool to an extra layer blurs after hitting return and escape ? -> video. And yes, I've watched the videos, at least some of them. Spline Image Tool.mp4Spline Image Tool.mp4

Great, Carlos, that was it ! i had almost given up.
