Member guats Posted August 6, 2015 Member Report Share Posted August 6, 2015 Hi there gang, I'm new to the forum but have been 3D Coat for about a year. I really like the program, I use it commercially for the game we are making. The new PBR features are pretty good, I am however struggling with a couple of things. 1. I can't find a way to close the damned 'Smart Material Preview' window. It causes a lag every time i try to move my point of view in the viewport, while it re-renders the view. I realise you can minimise it, but as soon as you get out the fill bucket it pops back up and lags the crap out of my comp. 2. I can't see any reflections on my smart metals at the moment. I just get a flat colour. It's as though the reflections are turned off in the options somewhere. I have attached an image two show problem (2) Please help! Thanks Guats Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderator Solution Daniel Posted August 6, 2015 Moderator Solution Report Share Posted August 6, 2015 Try to resize it to as little as you like and use a Pin to minimize it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member guats Posted August 11, 2015 Author Member Report Share Posted August 11, 2015 Hey thanks for the response, but the window continues to cause pausing/lagging unless it is minimised. So whenever you switch to paint bucket mode you get lag every time the Smart Material WIndow reloads the material. I guess you need to be able to toggle the window.
