New Member KovonMolebock Posted March 5, 2016 New Member Report Share Posted March 5, 2016 So I love the program, just picked up the professional license. I was wondering if there's a way to paint with a flat light? Like Maya has. Because when I import into maya and plug in my texture it's quite dark, which I admit is probably because the default maya light is different than 3dcoat's. But even in flat light it's still different, are there ideal light settings that anyone here uses so when it's imported into Maya or other software it's not a difference in color? Here's a reference (3dcoat on the left, maya on the right). 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you want to see some more defining of the model in flat shade, calculate some AO for it under the Textures menu. It appears though the model has some AO already. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
New Member KovonMolebock Posted March 5, 2016 Author New Member Report Share Posted March 5, 2016 Thanks for the quick response, this is exactly what I was looking for. I love 3D-COAT so far, a big jump from hand painting directly on a 2D plane. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
