Member Randy Posted December 1, 2014 Member Report Share Posted December 1, 2014 I am trying to get clean auto-retopos. Tutorials say to symmatrize the model and then check the symmetry axis on the AutopoParams popup. Buuut, as you can see, I don't have the the check boxes. I used to have them, but clearly, I did something and I can't figure out what. Thanx ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Member Randy Posted December 1, 2014 Author Member Report Share Posted December 1, 2014 (edited) Symmetry is on, as you can see by the picture. It gives me that message regardless. I did try the radial symmetry, like the message tells me. Here is what I was looking for. The checkboxes from the Retoparams.

Carlosan Posted December 1, 2014 Report Share Posted December 1, 2014 Sorry, which tutorial are you learning ? after V 4.1.17D i always use this option hope it helps Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Randy Posted December 1, 2014 Author Member Report Share Posted December 1, 2014 I think so carlosan. So that message ( on the first post ) isn't really telling me that I am doing something wrong. Whether I have applied symmetry or not, I will get that message. thanx !

So that message ( on the first post ) isn't really telling me that I am doing something wrong. Whether I have applied symmetry or not, I will get that message. thanx ! That's correct. It's just a reminder of sorts. I think Andrew removed the Symmetry checkbox's from the Auto-Retopo dialog, after Radial Symmetry was introduced. I would guess the reason being that it can conflict or confuse the user, if they already had symmetry enabled before starting Auto-Retopo. Might be a move to reduce redundancy? Not sure, but if you have symmetry enabled from the Symmetry panel, Auto-Retopo will respect it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reputable Contributor AbnRanger Posted December 1, 2014 Reputable Contributor Report Share Posted December 1, 2014 Haven't used it in a while, so I don't specifically know of the changes. That's kind of how it goes in 3D Coat a lot of times. Small changes only announced in the release notes. That's why it's good to comb over them when you install a new build.If you skip a few builds, it might be a good practice to skim over all the release notes of the ones, since.
