Hi!

I was wondering if anyone had any tips for how to recreate PS brushes in 3DCoat. I have retrieved the alpha textures from the .abr file, but my issue is how to recreate the settings the brushes have in PS.

For example, can I recreate dual brush? Transfer?

Thanks

Sarah

You can load ABR files directly into 3DC. 

A one to one exact match, the alpha yes but any special functions maybe not. 3DC has it's own brush options panel that it uses.

If by "dual brush" you mean having both up and down, then I believe the videos cover that. 

Thanks I'll take a look.

Thanks, didn't know you could import ABR files. I've played with the 3DC brush options before, I was just curious if there was any info on how I could set up 3DC's brush options to replicate what a brush is like in PS.

Hi Digman. I'm looking for the method for installing .abr in 3d-Coat. I'm only interested in the alphas anyway.

Thanks!

In case anyone is out there Googling how to import Photoshop ABR brushes into 3DCoat:

Click that + at the end:

Then choose Open Texture File. I'm certain people are getting lost here, it won't occur to the average user that an ABR file is considered a "texture" file.

When the file window opens, all good:

Hope this helps someone.
