Ballistic_Tension 76 Report post Posted July 21, 2015 Yes its there but shorter as in just Export type (DROPDOWN) list and 2 buttons Update and Transfer. All the rest that use to be there is gone as in / apply modifiers,texture path,export type, im thinking I need to set the exchange folder to 4.5.03a ? IN 3DCOAT there use to be a option when the app-link was set in the drop down list under file I think to send it over. As long as I know the app-link works with these 2 versions I will keep at it. Thanks for your time Carlosan Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thanks for your time Carlosan I think you enabled the official addon. You need to enable Simple3DCoat addon from here https://github.com/mifth/mifthtools/tree/master/blender/addons/io_simple_3dcoat Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Britain 5 Report post Posted July 31, 2015 The app is using an older 3dcoat retopo. The newer 3dcoat has an option for hard surface retopo. The retopo either needs to be fixed or removed from the app. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Britain 5 Report post Posted August 4, 2015 @ mifth There could be other painting imports ( per pixel painting for one) crashing 3dcoat also. Carlosan would know more on the changes. Real cool Miratool and mifthtool thanks for those! umm per pixel painting started working..... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ballistic_Tension 76 Report post Posted August 4, 2015 Hey Britain the app link works for me in per pixel painting sometimes I need to hit the Export 2-3 times in blender to get it in 3dc side. I cant transfer any color info/material from blender over to 3DC it says its a UV set name.3DC into Blender works fine the 3 texture maps are named KD=color KS=spec and Bump . Can you get the color /mat from blender over to 3dcoat or no? thanks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
