It works with my 12 million poly mesh. I still can't load a 70 millions poly mesh, but it's a good step forward

The main bottleneck in 3d coat is the mesh import limitations. I still can't import large meshes in ths sculpt room - more than 12 millions polys without having a out of memory error. I've got 64 go of ram, and tried all the possible file formats : Obj, Stl, Ply. I even tried to use the 3dcoat bridge in Blender to transfert my mesh, without success.

My request : In the paint room, a Clone tool that clone only the high frequency details and keep the overall tone, like the healing brush in Photoshop I could be very useful to repair textures

And if i open the model with white parasite pixels in 3dcoat 4.5 or 3d coat 4.9, the parasite pixels are gone If i load in 3d coat 2021 the model previously saved in 3dcaot 4.9, the parasite pixels dosen't show up anymore.

I've got a display issue on UV seams in paint room (parasite pixels that i can't rid of ) And this bug wasn't in 3dc 4.5 The texture was baked in Zbrush, touched up in 3d coat 2021 ( i wasn't able to get rid of white pixels ) And, when i load the model in 3d coat 4.5, white pixels are gone

A couple of bugs : In paint room, the color picker dosen't work in the texture editor window With the clone tool, the through all layers option dosen''t work.

I hope that heavy mesh import will be improved in 3dc 2021. actually in surface sculpt mode, i can't import a 20 millions polys in Obj, Ply or in Stl without a crash. (out of meme error) And I've got 64 go of ram

2 cents : The new super relax brush is FANTASTIC to clean rough scans You should add a " super relax whole model" in one click tool

Hello. It's an issue that i encounter since a long time. In the paint room, with the clone tool, the cloned depth is always added to the existing depth. I wish that the cloned depth would replace the existing depth. Switching from Blend to add mode dosen't change anything. Only Max depth seems to work

I modeled basic shapes in blender that i sculpted in surface mode in 3d coat

Sculpted with 3d coat rendered with Blender / Cycles

I can't see the reproject tool in my UI. I use 3dc 4.8.34

Bug that occur in 4.8.23 (but not in 4.8.20) Baking displacement from surface sculpt mode create a shelled mesh How to reproduce it : Open the defaut sphere in surface sculpt mode Create an auto retopo mesh In retopo room bake with per pixel painting with displacement In sculpt room, the sphere has now a thickness, a shell. Another sphere appeared inside the first one

Is it possible to layout UDIM UVs in 3d Coat, actually ?

I used the new baking tool added in march, and i've got a couple of improvement suggestions : 1 : to be able to switch on / off the symetry during the paint process 2 : to have a backface culling option. Useful especially on thin surfaces 3 : a tool to tweak vertex by vertex the bake depth

The layer was in surface mode.

I found a UDIM numbering issue I import a mesh with 6 udims in retopo room I bake , then in paint room, the Udims tiles are in wrong order original udim order : 1001 1002 1003 1004 1005 1006 3dc correponding order : 1006 1005 1004 1002 1003 1001

I can't import in surface / sculpt room a mesh higher that 25 millions polys, without a virtual memory error. I'm on Win7, with 64 go of ram

Nice croc.Well don

+ 1000

when the boolean fail, most of the time, hole appear around the intersection thantk for the advice, digman In summary : closing holes in 3dc dosen't fix the problem and takes hours A projection tool could be a nioe addition A mirror tool to mirror only part of a model, could be a nioe addition too

I nailed the problem, and try to find a quick way to fix it in 3d coat Actually, i open the mesh in Zbrush, create auto groups by topology continuity, split the loose groups and delete them, closes holes, and re-export the model in 3dc

I'm working on creatures sculpting for an advertising, in surface sculpting mode. At some point, the director asked to add body parts (wings) I had to possibilities : 1 / To convert the mode to voxels, do booleans, then reconvert to polygons. Even with a 160 000 000 voxels/poly models, a lot of fine details were lost 2 / try to merge new parts with booleans I have repetitive issues with merge booleans in 3dcoat. The bridge tool dosen't worked well either in this case. I ended to do the boolean in blender with a 22 million poly model Is it possible to have a more robust or permissive boolean in 3d Coat, that worked even ii a have to fix some holes, or mesh issues ? It is the main bottleneck in my workflow Thanks

In surface sculpt mode, is there a way to symetrically copy some parts of a model (only visible, or unmasked parts, for example) And,how to use the copy clay brush ?
