Omni-Moulage

Hi, I thank you very much for considering my problem. Yes, renaming the layer was the solution, and everything is working correctly now. For the future, I think I will avoid changing the names of layers to prevent similar issues. Thank you again, and I wish you a happy Christmas!

sorry, I forgot the sharing rights, I think now it's ok: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1-APPVVrUEktXC-GIYLEcS67rNbhECM3u?usp=sharing

Hi, I use 3DCOAT primarily for 3D modeling. I'd also like to use it for object mapping for use in animation software. However, I'm having a problem exporting colors on an object made in 3 fusionned parts. The object is a crank with three parts: a metallic part with worn paint, a screw, and a handle. I've included a video to illustrate my problem: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1-APPVVrUEktXC-GIYLEcS67rNbhECM3u?usp=drive_link Does is possible to show me the correct way to create a color map ?

Unfortunately, this new version does not take into account the "negative value" used by the "bas-relief" tool. Do you think the next version will include a working tool like the old versions?

It is very good news that the bas-relief tool remains free. Until the bug is fixed, I will use two versions of 3DCoat at the same time: the 2021.30 whose bas relief works and the 2022.58 to continue my work and use the latest improvements. Thank you for your time and long live 3DCoat!

Hello dear Oleg_Shapo, I have been using "3DCoat" for several years and I have 2 licenses purchased (for V4 and now the new version). So far I have never had a problem with this tool. I am not looking to make a mold but just to extrude with a slope as I have always done as for example when I need to fit 2 pieces as shown in this example: https://cults3d.com/fr/modèle-3d/gadget/boite-a-bonbons-halloween So I really like working with 3DCoat and I hope that this bas-relief creation tool will remain free. If not what would be the price? The name of this tool in French is : "Bas-Relief" and I use negative "angle de conicité"

Hello, The "extrude" tool no longer works. I often use negative values to get conical shapes, but with this version 2022.58 there is no difference between positive or negative values. PS: the tool works whell with the older version of 3DCoat

Hello, First thank you for trying to help me and second I wish you a happy new year. I tried to use the autopoto tool but I never have a PNG file result when I export. The only way I found to get PNG files didn't convince me because I have a lot of PNG files and the 3D printer vendor only asks for one. what am I doing wrong in the following video? 2023-01-07 18-26-53.mkv

Hello, Should I conclude that there is no possibility to export in color for 3D printing?

Hello, Since the beginning of my use of 3DCoat, I only use the voxel and the 3D printing room for all my projects and I generally export ready-to-print objects to an OBJ or STL file. I have no idea how the other rooms work because I don't need them. (paint, UV, retopo, etc...) and because I can't see the colors. But today I need to send a 3D file to an external company in order to print something in color. The supplier asks me for 3 files in order to print in color: An OBJ file, a PNG and an MTL For this project I prepared a file with separate elements and just changed the color of each one from the shader tools using the requested RGB codes. But when I export I only have an OBJ and MTL file and the supplier can't print in color with that. I've read a lot of tutorials but now I'm completely lost and asking for help to find a correct way to just get the PNG file. Please how to export colored file?

Hi Carlosan, what is it "Feaure" ?

Bon il me semble bien ne pas avoir été assez clair sur ma demande, j'en suis désolé. Je réessayerais plus tard.

Comme montré dans la vidéo de mon 1er post, je commence bien par l'atelier Voxel. Si je bascule dans l'atelier Retopo c'est simplement que je n'ai pas trouvé d'autres ateliers ou visualiser les arrêtes et les points. Il y a bien le mode de visualisation "fil de fer" mais là non plus je ne sais pas exploiter les arrêtes. Dans l'immédiat j'utilise soit le site "https://www.voronator.com" ou bien le soft Meshlab pour satisfaire mon besoin, alors que je pressent que 3DCoat peut aussi "voroniser". Du moins je l'espère car à mon sens le mode "Retopo en Symétrie" donne un maillage en visuel bien plus correct.

En fait je m'aperçois que je n'ai pas expliqué le but final, au temps pour moi... Alors en fait je cherche tout simplement à reproduire un effet Voronoi, un peu à la manière de ce tutorial:

Et bien normalement lorsque des courbes sont créées avec l'outil "Blob" par exemple, ont peut simplement les remplir et leur donner une épaisseur.
