Member JVin Posted September 30, 2012 Member Share Posted September 30, 2012 Ok so I bought the student (windows) version about a week ago and have been very happy with the software thus far. I'm not sure If this has already been asked or if I'm using the correct terminology, but here it goes. While I was re-arranging the interface in the Voxels room, I noticed that the view icon at the top of the toolbox (and beside the Brush pressure sub-menu) is missing. I have used the Mac version before (which does have this option), so I am curious why it isn't showing up. Any tips? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Javis Posted October 1, 2012 Share Posted October 1, 2012 Hi! Interesting, have you tried the latest build, and does this happen on it as well? If you haven't seen it, there is a beta thread with all of the latest builds of 3DC here: http://3d-coat.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=8887&st=0 I would give that a go, see if it still happens.

Advanced Member stusutcliffe Posted October 1, 2012 Advanced Member Share Posted October 1, 2012 I think you may have to activate "beta tools" in the preferances.That red box you have indicated is to show brush icons which I believe are beta tools.

Member JVin Posted October 3, 2012 Author Member Share Posted October 3, 2012 @Javis According to 3d Coat, I already have the latest version for my system. @stusutcliffe Sadly, enablng Beta Tools didn't seem to make the "view button" (what should be within the red border) show up. Any more ideas? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reputable Contributor AbnRanger Posted October 3, 2012 Reputable Contributor Share Posted October 3, 2012 Go to MY DOCUMENTS > 3D Coat > delete the Options.xml file and restart 3DC. It's working fine on my end. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member JVin Posted October 4, 2012 Author Member Share Posted October 4, 2012 @AbnRanger Thanks, but it didn't do the trick. Strangely enough, both my laptop and tower have this issue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carlosan Posted October 4, 2012 Share Posted October 4, 2012 Using DX version... same result ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member JVin Posted October 4, 2012 Author Member Share Posted October 4, 2012 @carlosa Unfortunately I get the same issue on both of my computers whether using GL or Dx. Also, I just thought I'd mention I am currently running the x64 version (with CUDA) on my tower and the x64 version (non-Cuda) on my laptop.

Member JVin Posted October 16, 2012 Author Member Share Posted October 16, 2012 Surprisingly, when I look at the screenshot .jpg's created along with the .3b's, the option for resizing the toolbox appears in the picture. However, I have still been unable to get it to show up within the software. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Psmith Posted October 16, 2012 Share Posted October 16, 2012 Does this problem show up in the latest version 4 beta? Greg Smith Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member JVin Posted October 21, 2012 Author Member Share Posted October 21, 2012 Sorry for the delay. I'm currently running version 3.7.08B. Where can I download the V4 beta? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reputable Contributor AbnRanger Posted October 21, 2012 Reputable Contributor Share Posted October 21, 2012 Sorry for the delay. I'm currently running version 3.7.08B.

Reputable Contributor digman Posted October 21, 2012 Reputable Contributor Share Posted October 21, 2012 Here to get the last version of the 3 series. " 3.7.18" http://3d-coat.com/f...showtopic=10438 ( EDIT: this link is same as AbnRangers but just a different location.) You can run both 3 and beta 4 versions but just not at the same time. Beta 4 will install to it's own separate folder. Use your version 3 license to register beta 4 beta 4 link, AbnRanger, made a oops and gave you the link for verison 3.7 http://3d-coat.com/f...opic=10395&st=0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member JVin Posted October 22, 2012 Author Member Share Posted October 22, 2012 Thanks. Both 3.7.18H works, but now it won't let me activate the software. Every time I enter my key, and press "Ok", the program re-opens and complains about being in demo mode. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reputable Contributor digman Posted October 22, 2012 Reputable Contributor Share Posted October 22, 2012 I noticed in your first picture at the start of the thread that it saids (Demo) also. Could there be a problem with your student license or does the word Demo appear in the Student version. I would contact support@3dcoat.com with your problem.

Carlosan Posted October 22, 2012 Share Posted October 22, 2012 sorry im asking this but... the comp needs to be connected to inet to activate... have you any firewall blocking ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member JVin Posted October 23, 2012 Author Member Share Posted October 23, 2012 @digman I have no idea why the above image shows (demo) in the title bar. Usually 3d Coat (or at least v3.7.08B) says (demo) while it is opening, but then switches to say (educational). @carlosa Yes I am connected to the internet. Windows 7 even popped a window when I started 3d coat for the first time requesting that the program be allowed to pass through the firewall; to which I answered yes.

Member JVin Posted October 23, 2012 Author Member Share Posted October 23, 2012 Good news, I tried registering 3d Coat v3.7.18F this morning and it worked like a charm. Perhaps the 3d coat servers took a while to fully unregister my old license, or (more likely) I needed to reboot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
