Member Decker Posted July 10, 2016 Member Report Share Posted July 10, 2016 Im a brand new owner of 3d coat, and i have been attempting to download the extras kindly given from http://3dcoat.com/download/#1 under the resources area, the only issue im finding, is it is creating folders inside the smart materials tab after installing (file -> install extension -> selected file) but inside the folders are nothing, the materials are not there, yet the folders under smart materials have been created. what is the procedure to get these smart materials downloaded from 3D coat themselves into 3D coat correctly?

Member Marcelo Teixeira Posted July 29, 2016 Member Report Share Posted July 29, 2016 Great answer but I am having almost the same problem BUT is with the PBR shaders that are installed but dont show in the browser... any help? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Decker Posted July 29, 2016 Author Member Report Share Posted July 29, 2016 Yeah, i have the same issue, once downloaded and going through the normal procedure of importing the 3d coat file package, it doesn't seem to actually be ready for use in the smart materials window. How is it possible to download and import a PBR shader/Smart material in 3D coat? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carlosan Posted July 29, 2016 Report Share Posted July 29, 2016 PBR is used in both shaders room: paint and sculpt. Those are Sculpt Shaders, not Smart materials for paint. Can you switch to Sculpt room to check there ? ty Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Decker Posted July 29, 2016 Author Member Report Share Posted July 29, 2016 I have downloaded all of the free extras available on 3d coats site, but a few of these have not appeared to have worked, i installed them by the file -> install extension process, but it seems that i have empty folders inside my smart materials in the paint room, these folders from 3d coat are V2 Legacy Extra Materials, PT BUMP SQUARE, PT BUMP MATH, and Bricks. All these were downloaded from http://3dcoat.com/download/ in the resources area at the bottom of the page, in the materials page. So after the installation of these extensions, i am now left with folders with nothing inside of them (apart from the close and new buttons) could someone explain this to me and what i am to do, cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
