Member hansolocambo@gmail.com Posted August 11, 2016 Member Report Share Posted August 11, 2016 I just finished this zbrush sculpt and struggle with 3DCoat. I did the retopo of a part of this mesh and began to work on the UVs just to make an XNormal test. As most of the UV tools also exist in the retopo room, I defined my seams from there. But I tried every way I could figure out to export the mesh with UVs defined but when I open it from ZBrush, Max or any other app, there are : no UVs... I put the scene with seams from the retopo room in the link below if someone could help me to understand my mistakes or explain the way to export properly the mesh WITH UVs from the retopo room. DOWNLOAD retopo with seams marked in the RETOPO ROOM here : http://mcassar.free.fr/3DCoat/Metal Chest Part1 UVs from Retopo Room.3b As it wasn't working in the retopo room for me, and I also couldn't figure a way to get the mesh with seams from the retopo room in the UV room ... Well I imported the mesh and did all the seams again in UVs room this time. But it's the same ! When I export the .obj, it's got no UVs defined. I'm facing a wall there and would love to finish this mesh quickly. Understand how to do that would accelerate my workflow big time as UV unwrapping in 3DCoat is so damn cleverly thought, coded, and fast. DOWNLOAD retopo with seams marked in the UV ROOM here : http://mcassar.free.fr/3DCoat/Metal Chest Part1 UVs from UVs Room.3b Thanks a LOT in advance to anyone who could help me understand what I do wrong here P.S : I precise (I just think about that) that I did a quarter of the retopo in 3DCoat then Used 3DSMax symmetry twice, in X and Y, put an edit poly on top of the stack, collapsed it then imported it in 3DCoat. Maybe that's the issue ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member hansolocambo@gmail.com Posted August 11, 2016 Author Member Report Share Posted August 11, 2016 (edited) Command "unwrap" on the left. After I defined my seams. What a dumb I am... And now I have UVS on the mesh ! ... I'm getting there https://skfb.ly/RIMV Edited August 11, 2016 by hansolocambo@gmail.com 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Javis Posted August 11, 2016 Report Share Posted August 11, 2016 I'm glad you got the issue solved. You are not dumb though! When you're new to software it just takes some time to get used to the nuances. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
