Metin Seven 21 Report post Posted February 11, 2018 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 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Metin Seven 21 Report post Posted February 12, 2018 The article has also been published on CG Record. I hope this brings 3D-Coat some interesting exposure. Regards, Metin 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
digman 1,206 Report post Posted February 13, 2018 (edited) 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. Edited February 13, 2018 by digman 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
