Hi,

I wrote an evaluation of the two best 3D auto-retopology algorithms available today — 3D Coat's Autopo and ZBrush's ZRemesher.

Read the article here.

Regards,

Metin

The article has also been published on CG Record. I hope this brings 3D-Coat some interesting exposure.

Regards,

Metin

Very good article. You hit the nail on the head, a lower decimated model removes the noisy details. The autopo routine then has an easier time following major form. The routine  itself  will decimate but I found that you get better results doing some decimating first yourself before running Autopo. A clean mesh with no errors is critical to getting a good retopo mesh too.

Thanks @digman! That's my experience too.
