Hi there Is it possible to create curves for the 'draw with splines' tool from a layer selection? I want to create a 'strip' along a specific layer's outline without having to draw a curve around the layer outline by hand. Something similar to creating a stroke around a selection in photoshop but with the functionality you get from strips. If this isn't possible, maybe it would be something cool to add to the 'draw with splines' tool for future versions. Thanks Chris

Thanks for the response Abnranger. We're on 3.5.19A , I'll update us to the latest. Good to know this issue has been reported/worked on. Maybe 3.5.19 still had the memory leak issue present. Would still be nice to have some performance options exposed like undo steps, page file etc.

Hey Guys, When using 3Dcoat, we've noticed the program slows down a lot the longer it stays open. Saving and opening 3Dcoat again fixes the slowdown. So I'm thinking it could be to do with paint strokes the artist makes being stored in memory and not being cleared after a certain number of steps. I was wondering if anybody has any tips for performance tweaks in 3D coat. I cant seem to find any memory management options like changing the swap file path and size, amount of undo steps etc. We're running intel core i7's with 12 gigs of ram and geforce cards that have over a gig of Vram. Lastly, would having a Quadro card of similar Vram spec make a big difference in performance? thanks, Chris.

Thanks AbnRanger! That tutorial certainly helped. Diffuse maps and specular maps are baking perfectly.

Hey there, Topic Title pretty much describes what I'm trying to do. The texture dept here have a model with a texture painted on an old UV layout. The UV layout has since been changed and instead of re-painting the textures again from scratch on the new UV layout, I was wondering how one would go about transfering texture maps from the old UV layout to the new UV layout. We thought the texture baking tool could to this, but after trying all of the different options we're out of ideas. Would be great if someone could point us in the right direction.
