  2. Prolonging upgrades info - Any issues: notify the Sales/Licensing office at Sales@Pilgway.com

    in Announcements

    Posted

    Howdy, account says I should still receive updates through July, but though I see both my 2023 3DCoat licenses listed, I see no upgrade indication for 2024?

    As it was just announced today, will that be a future change (hopefully before July)?  Or will my existing 2023 3DCoat licenses just continue to work for 2024 3DCoat releases?  I'm just trying to understand what, if anything, I need to do to obtain licenses that will work for 2024 3DCoat releases.  Thanks!

  4. LightWave Applink

    in 3DCoat AppLinks

    Can you put the code up in GitHub or some equivalent location?  Otherwise, what license would apply, and how do we obtain the source code?

    I can't make any promises, but there's a fairly decent chance someone will finish the AppLink for LW2018.

  9. LeapMotion support?

    in General 3DCoat

    Posted

    Now that LeapMotion is out, and the SDK available for dev/test, I was wondering when/if we might see support for the LeapMotion device in 3DCoat?  It seems perfectly suited to sculpting and painting given its 3D work field, and ability to sense both PSR & angle of fingers/tools in use.  I even looked briefly at the SDK, and was quite impressed how well thought-out it seemed to be, designed for easy integration into 3D apps of all kinds.

     

    Thanks!

  14. 3D-Coat 3.7 updates thread

    in New Releases, Bugs Reports & Development Discussion

    Posted

    Actually I kind of like the approach AbnRanger is proposing: Call v3.7.whatever (pick a stable subrev, .18 or whatever) the "final v3" and then treat everything afterwards as various pre-releases of v4. It avoids the "two live branches" problem, and realistically, calling v3.7 "the end" for v3 is still eminently fair in terms of everything that's been added in v3 since initial release.

    BTW, any word on when .18 for Mac will show? If it's already been stated, my apologies, missed it.

  19. 3D-Coat for OSX 64-bit [beta testing]

    in New Releases, Bugs Reports & Development Discussion

    Posted

    Posted this over in the regular update thread as well, but figured I'd ask here in case Mac folks are reading this instead of the other thread:

    Ever since the first 64-bit beta, I've been having a problem with 3DC. It gets into this state as if the alt key is constantly held down (and yes, I've checked sticky keys, and other prefs that might cause similar effect). It doesn't always happen right away, but once it gets into this state, I can't figure out any way to get it back out again. Clicking with alt held, etc. doesn't fix it. Once in this state, I can't draw, etc. because mouse-dn dragging just rotates the view, and so forth. Has anyone else run across this problem? If so, any workarounds? It seems "new" to 64-bit 3DC, but as I've been messing around with peripherals it could as easily be an incompatibility.

  24. Mac Version is 19A Windows Beta is 20 Why ?

    in New Releases, Bugs Reports & Development Discussion

    Posted

    I asked about 64 progress and it already runs well but several issues:

    - wacom support

    - cuda support

    - floating license support

    only (1) is critical for beta, so I hope this time beta of 64 bit version is really close to be done.

    That's great news, Andrew! Thanks for the update!

    I'd happily do without CUDA support (ATI gfx here, anyway) if it meant getting a 64-bit Mac 3DCoat beta in our hands sooner.

    the same main menu everywhere. Your compliments to the chef. ;) Still a 32 bit mac build, even for you in germany. :drinks:

    Actually, mine doesn't look nearly as corrupted as theirs (on OSX 10.6.7, 3.5.19a EN), so I see the OP's point. It looks like the localization isn't properly accounting for the width of labels for German (and/or they need to use abbreviations in the German localization instead of the full words). If that's the menu bar they're seeing, it IS a bug, and worth mentioning.

    I, too, would love to hear some status about the 64-bit Mac work, as it does sound like Mac users are about to be "left behind" by some of the new tools due to those features' resource demands. I'm a bit disappointed of late over the lack of apparent priority assigned to getting 64-bit Mac 3DC done. 3DCoat's done a great job of maintaining feature parity between Mac and Windows users to date, but without priority getting 64-bit Mac released, the lack of access to >32-bit RAM resources is creating a feature gap in practical usage. Even though the features are present, Mac users can't access enough RAM to get real work done with those features, and that's becoming a problem.

    Andrew, can someone there please at least provide regular status updates about the progress of the Mac 64-bit work? Without them, from this side it starts to feel like there may not BE any ongoing progress.
