Advanced Member herve_bis Posted November 21, 2012 Advanced Member Report Share Posted November 21, 2012 btw, after I subdivided a retopo mesh (from auto retopo), and opening the model, Modo tells me half normals needed to be fixed... (obj.) h/ for the problem I have had above... I opened a fresh 3D coat; imported the retopo mesh applied the disp map I had exported... (3Dcoat told me disp was 27.6), but when I entered that value... it was twice to big... reducing it at 50% solved everything, clone tool works.. PS. the clone tool ... for disp cloning it's good... but color cloning... you can't get a soft brush.. at least with small brushes... medium to large brushes are improved... h/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member stry Posted November 21, 2012 Member Report Share Posted November 21, 2012 Testing Beta5 and really liking the progress, just lovely! I'm not sure if these are related to v4 beta or not, but here goes. In the Paint room Texture Editor window, the closed spline mode (from the Brush Operations panel) is slightly wonky. Right clicking a spline point doesn't change the point into a sharp one, or back - like it does in the 3d view. I can change them fine through the Edit Points Table, but it's slow with a bigger spline setup. Features I'd like to see for the Texture Editor window: - Lock the splines in the UV space so they won't skid around as you pan across the texture - Lock the 2D grid in place as well, it's slightly annoying to re-align it every time after panning. - Have multiple closed splines active at the same time Even without these, I'm surprised how much faster using the Texture Editor window is (in terms of performance and iteration speed) than nDo2.

Yes...I've mentioned this before and it does need to get Fixed ASAP. I use that Right-Click to sharpen all the time. Basically, it's broken in the 2D Texture Editor. Just added it to the Mantis bug tracker.

SERGYI Posted November 21, 2012 Report Share Posted November 21, 2012 Is there a minimum spec for the Mac build? My OS 10.5.8 Several builds ago the 3D-Coat project for Mac has been migrated to the latest Xcode 4.5. It was supposed that 3D-Coat would work under Mac OS X Leopard (under Snow Leopard and above 3D-Coat works for sure). Please wait till I quickly install Leopard on my workstation to see if it is possible to run the latest builds from Xcode 4.5 under Leopard.

Andrew Shpagin Posted November 21, 2012 Author Report Share Posted November 21, 2012 hello... I really have an issue with 3d coat atm.... if I try to import a scanned file, it refuses to open the file (obj.), I mean it does not even read the file, I see directly the voxel panel, and clicking auto scale leaves the counter at 0... this is in all 3D coat version 3.7.18.F and 4 (last beta5) Where do I go fro; here... the scan is 24 million triangles h/ Could be good to get mesh. Zip/rar it and send via Help->send to support. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew Shpagin Posted November 21, 2012 Author Report Share Posted November 21, 2012 Hello guys, Can somebody tells me if the Retopo>"use name correspondence for baking " works. I tick this option and check the correspondence (all the correspondence was found). But i still have the projection of others volume where it shouldn't. It doesn't look to work here on the 4.beta5 or on the lastest v3. Thank you, Pixo There is problem that appear if some volumes are in surf mode and some in vox mode. It is fixed but you may turn all to surf mode and all should work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew Shpagin Posted November 21, 2012 Author Report Share Posted November 21, 2012 Hello guy, i just download the latest beta5. Does somebody try the new material tiling option with the paint distortion? It doesn't look to work properly. What problems are there? Seems it works well on Windows...

Member sculptor919 Posted November 21, 2012 Member Report Share Posted November 21, 2012 Hi, I've found an issue in the new 64bit Beta (V5) where small holes are being made in the model when using Live Clay and Surface tools. I was working on a fish model and when trying to smooth the fin (using surface smooth) small holes in the model appeared. I tried to fix them with the Reconstruct tool but as I started to use the tool, and before applying, small black dots appeared. When I pressed the apply button 3DCoat then crashed (did not respond to any input). My system specs: Win 7 Pro 64bit Intel Core i7 3770K, Ivy Bridge, 3.5GHz, Quad Core 16 GB Corsair Vengeance 1600MHz NVidia GTX 660ti 2GB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Member sculptor919 Posted November 21, 2012 Member Report Share Posted November 21, 2012 Cheers Digman, I'm using the recent 6.11.2012 BETA5 where the bug occured. Can't wait for the next release now, I'm loving the Live Clay tools. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Contributor BeatKitano Posted November 21, 2012 Contributor Report Share Posted November 21, 2012 I'm not sure it's the same bug, the one Raul posted about are black spots, yours are real holes with shading issues... Maybe another case (got that one too). It may be worth sending the file to support to ensure it's the same thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reputable Contributor digman Posted November 22, 2012 Reputable Contributor Report Share Posted November 22, 2012 Please explain essence of the problem, I have not found it in this thread. The problem I found is that when you select Paint Distortion, the single image is switched to tiling mode. You can not switch back to non-tile mode even for paint mode. You have to close the image and then sometimes your image will not load again in non-tiled mode even in paint mode till you close and reopen 3DCoat. Painting distortion works but with the above problems. I did not fill out a bug report as you have a back log of bugs already. Reports get buried sometimes if there are too many at Mantis at one time plus I was waiting to see if Pixo filed one and then I could confirm his report. Edit : Just tested again and it gets stuck in tiling mode till you close and reopen 3DCoat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Advanced Member jamie Posted November 23, 2012 Advanced Member Report Share Posted November 23, 2012 What problems are there? Seems it works well on Windows... Once you switch to distort mode, tiling is re-enabled and no longer switchable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Advanced Member wave of light Posted November 23, 2012 Advanced Member Report Share Posted November 23, 2012 Show Voxels in Paint Room - always returns to 'on' whenever I reopen 3DC.

Advanced Member jamie Posted November 23, 2012 Advanced Member Report Share Posted November 23, 2012 another bug... drag drop image from explorer to create new material, switch between materials drop another file to create new material new material isn't the new map, but a clone of the last material all newly dropped images will be clones Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew Shpagin Posted November 24, 2012 Author Report Share Posted November 24, 2012 Updated to BETA6 (WIN only, Mac+Linux coming soon) - big work performed over stabilizing and optimizing 3D-Coat. I hope LC tools will work much more predictably and faster. Many areas of 3D-Coat including paint, retopo, voxels was tested and a lot of bugs fixed. A lot of Mantis bugs fixed. - options how ghosting will be treated (see top panel) - Zooming in/out speed will depend on distance from the pivot point to perform better navigation - Direct uploading to sketchfab.com done Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Advanced Member wave of light Posted November 24, 2012 Advanced Member Report Share Posted November 24, 2012 Goodness me, I'm seeing a very big increase in speed whilst using large brushes. Had a quick play using backup copy of my Thing sculpt and LC brushes can be used at very large sizes. Will do a side by side comparison... but I can already see it.

Contributor BeatKitano Posted November 24, 2012 Contributor Report Share Posted November 24, 2012 Thanks for new ghosted volume options, much easier to work that way. Continuing testing Stroke quality is indeed improved (A LOT), surface is much less jagy than previously I can get explosions if I try to push the smooth factor over 100% (toying around but if it's "normal" it should be locked to 100%) -Symmetry is broken (on buildclay at least) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
