I think your object just has far too many polys. Just use voxels to block out then go to surface mode , remesh and decimate to suit. You get sort of a feel for when you have to go from Vox to surface after a while. If I was making that "thing" in the piccy it would probably be no more than about 20,000. ( of course I dont know what your workflow or aim is , just commenting on whats in front of me!)

I keep ending up back at 4.9.02 which works really good for me.( I think this version was before the new interface was introduced.......not keen, prefer the old but I will eventually get used to it ) I try every other beta that comes out, but there always seems to be some little niggle that sends me running back to .02. But all I really do is sculpt and vertex paint, I dont really do any of that there fancy stuff.

Hi, I installed Beta 12 BF4 and it is now working! But the version number at the top line of the 3d coat window still says 12 ? Should it say 12 bf4? Or is that what it is supposed to say ?

I used to be able to drag an obj from the sculpt tree and drop it into the Models tab, does not seem to work now, has something changed here. Beta 12

Could somebody tell me what this refers to please.

Lock Backgound Environment in the Render Room is working again, thanks .

It seems to be impossible to lock the environment image in the render room. It can be locked in the sculpt room but as soon as you go the render room it unchecks itself.

I've not been trying .07, ( currently on .02, which I find quite reliable for my purposes.) But every once in a while the centre cube in the gizmo disappears for me also, I usually just shut down the software and restart and it magically reappears.

Just in case anyones interested its all gone as predicted....and its not even included in your photoshop package. Just head on over to the Substance site. I lost interest in Substance when I found it didnt do Vertex painting.

Just had a quick look at mine .6 beta works like the .2 beta for me, absolutely fine . But Ive got a whole heap of glitches elsewhere . So sticking to .2 beta for now. ( wacom Bamboo)

Wow , amazing , you da man Carrots. I've just been through most of my shaders + default shaders ,quite a few of them are black or really dark. My shadows seem to be working ok at the moment, so thats good.

I just did a quick test with some fresh models , it rendered not too badly but minus shadows ( not ticked off in the options so should appear) I think I am narrowing the problem down to my own edited shaders, the default ones seem to work though Ive not been through them all. I think I will hang on for the next beta and if the probs persist I wil sort out a scene for investigative purposes. I will go back to .2 for my impending client job. If I get some free time I will play a bit more with it. Thanks Try this shader, seems to be the main culprit, it light grey but appear black in the render. Dodgy Shader.3dcpack

The renderer seems to be applying the new silhouette option to objects randomly. Even when the check box is set to zero.

Hi, Most of my shaders behave strangely in .6 plus the real time renderer is weird and indescribable..the nice render was in the .2 beta. Graphics card is gtx1050 ti The bottom image does look like its got a toon shader on it dosnt it, its not supposed to is there a special setting I might have activated by mistake? Why have you posted those toon shaders ?

So Im happy with docking my tab etc etc So I tried a quick render.. disaster, something bad is lurking here. Think Im gonna go back to .3 version for now. The nice render compared to the not so nice. ( ps. Dont want to sound like Im moaning about everthing two minutes after ive installed , Andrew and the gang are doing a fantastic job.)
