Any sign of Cheetah 3D AppLink coming back to life? Bob
-
Been out of the 3D loop for a while and I'm sure there have been lots of changes. When I open 3DC, and I want to bring in a model made elsewhere and want to paint texture and displacemnet on it, how do I bring it into 3DC? There are a bunch of options when you open the app and I just want to make sure I'm using the correct or most efficiet one. Thanks! Bob

Thanks link looks perfect! Thanks very much I will investigatae. Bob

So, nobody on here does any 3D printing?? Bob
-
I've been intrigued about 3D printing lately, but know nothing about it! Is there a tutorial or rules or guidelines to follow when creating a model in 3D Coat for printing? I don't plan on buying a printer, so any recommendations of companies that do so would be great, too. Thanks! Bob
-
OK. Thanks! Bob
-
Thanks for the info, pegot! I'm not even sure Cheetah supports P-tex. Looking forward to the new version of Cheetah, too. Hopefully it improves a few of its shortcomings. Bob
-
Yeah, I can just use an image, but I was wondering more about settings. I know they are different in each application as far as getting optimal results from displacement. Bob
-
Anyone on here use Cheetah 3D along with 3D Coat? Just bough Cheetah and also have 3D Coat. Cheetah uses a displacement modifier rather than as part of a material system and it seems to work differently than other apps. I was wondering if anyone uses both with displacement maps. Or, are there any examples from 3D Coat around that I can download and test in Cheetah. Thanks! Bob

Thanks very much! Bob

Which one is the latest release version for Mac? Bob
-
Just purchased my upgrade to version 4, but I'm not sure which one to download. My choices are EU or Canada. I'm in the US. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks. Bob

Is there a way to make fairly realistic looking feathers and/or fur in 3D Coat? I don't have a dedicated hair solution in my 3D app and would like to see what my options are. Obviously, it's not going to be dynamic or blow in the wind, by I'd like to know what's possible. Thanks! Bob
-
OK. So here's the new plan: 1. Build a base mesh in Cinema 4D (I'm not really comfortable sculpting from scratch yet) 2. Bring into 3D Coat for sculpting, texture, painting. 3. Export .obj and normal map (Is that correct?) At what point do I need UVs? Should the obj I'm importing have UVs? Are UVs needed for sculpting or just for texture/painting? Thanks. Bob
-
I followed the Rat tutorial (which was very informative) and I now realize...I SUCK at sculpting! Aside from that, how can you get all quads or make sure there are no n-gons or tris when retoplogizing? My character will be animated and they need clean, quad only meshes. Thanks. Bob
-
LiveClay works only in tris, right? Does retoping after you're done take car of making everything quads? Bob
-
I'm about to start a character (creature) and was wondering what is the recomended method. It will be animated. Should I bring in a low res model and start from that? Bring into voxel room? Start in voxel room? Or bring into one of the other texturing areas? I have no experience sculpting, so I don;t know how fast I would pick that up from scratch. So, any help would be appreciated. Also, I'm in v3.7. Thanks. Bob
-
Thanks very much! Bob
-
How can I get v3.7 then? I realize it's at v4 now, which is a paid upgrade which I'd like to hold off on if I can. Thanks. Bob
-
No one is working with an older version of 3D Coat on a newer Mac? Bob
-
I have an older version of 3D Coat and was wondering if it will run on my newer iMac running 10.8.5 and possibly Mavericks. Thanks. Bob
