Member GrzegorzWięcek Posted July 1, 2018 Member Report Share Posted July 1, 2018 Hallo guys, I'm new in the group, I've bought 3D Coat 2 weeks ago and I already need some help. I'm doing some tutorials after Jayanam on YT, and I found that my 'Smart materials preview' quality is much better then after 'Fill whole layer'. How could I find the solution. Does my UV map is bad, I set it 2048 during import. If there was a similar topic here already in the past, please share a link to it. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carlosan Posted July 1, 2018 Report Share Posted July 1, 2018 Hi Hope this help. On 2/15/2018 at 4:40 PM, digman said: The preview window renders at a Higher quality. You would need a 8k map in the smart material to closely match it. You will be limited by the resolution of the smart material images that are used to make the smart material and your final texture resolution for your image maps. Also is how well you are using the UV space, that is how your uv-islands are filling up the uv space. I make all-my smart materials at 4K. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Member jima Posted December 31, 2018 Member Report Share Posted December 31, 2018 I was noticing the same thing. I enlarged my texture in PS, but still did not see a change when painting. Then, I increased the resolution of my model in the sculpt room to 16X. Even the low resolution texture applied beautifully. This may not be suitable for everyone, I know. I usually sculpt at a fairly high resolution for surface details and print on a 3d printer. Just starting with painting. Love the product, but I have to constantly learn new things.
