Carlosan Posted January 31, 2021 Report Share Posted January 31, 2021 At the moment, I do not think you can apply a Shader texture to your model. Unfortunately, 3D-Coat does not have a ZBrush Noise Maker system. However, you can do some things to inflate (sculpt) the surface of the mesh: 1) Try to use Smart Material with Depth, but in my tests you have to use Cube Mapping or From Camera projection type (if cube mapping does not work). Always try to set a high depth. Generally, when printing details will be smoothed or lost, so depth is important. 2) Use in Sculpt Room: - Stencils: Apply the textures you want. (Always choose PNG, TIF, EXR with 16-bit) - Alphas: Apply alphas with PNG, TIF, 16 bit EXR for good quality - Brushes: Live Clays - You have the option to use alpha in conjunction with the Noise option enabled. Noise will allow you to choose some type of different textures. Not much, but I hope it helps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
