Advanced Member Elemeno Posted July 12, 2021 Advanced Member Report Share Posted July 12, 2021 i know this is late to ask but can the room be properly catered to its uses... for example sculpting room will have its own hotkeys and then modelling room having its own hotkeys an a proper interface and tools... for exactly b for bevelling ,workflow of 3dc lowpoly is way too slow... its not even worth using because its just a timewaster not a helper. select should use a replace each selection... so when you select a face or edge and then select another edge it will remove the previous selection and only way to stack selection woul be using the shift key, going into clear selection after every adjustment is crazy and not something i ever want to do again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But if you change the select mode to a marquee selection in the E panel, it will be have more like what you're suggesting iirc. My main gripe is that select should always be available...we shouldn't have to switch to a dedicated select mode. It slows things down having to always do that. Even setting a hotkey seems like an unnecessary extra click. Perhaps holding the CTRL key or something similar should allow selecting at any time...kind of like how we always have access to the smooth tool while sculpting with the SHIFT key while sculpting.... Also, we will need the ability to snap the pivot point to verts/selections and adjust the transformation orientation for face normals, world space, local space, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Advanced Member polynut Posted July 12, 2021 Advanced Member Report Share Posted July 12, 2021 Hi guy's just getting back in 3d coat and the blob tool doesn't work when i load curve from image and press enter, the shape doesn't get filled. Is there a new way to do this in 2021 or is this a bug? Here is the image i use and the result when i press enter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Advanced Member sprayer Posted July 12, 2021 Advanced Member Report Share Posted July 12, 2021 (edited) @polynut it's freezing for me, looks like because too many points, simplify curve also freeze or to long for operation. Yes it takes several minutes for simplify, but it works strange Edited July 12, 2021 by sprayer 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I personally find the 'Shift-less' selection method as much more intuitive and faster than, say, Blender's. Also, once you ascribe shortcuts to Low-Poly and Sculpting rooms, switching between polygon edition and sculpting mode (with the 'Sculpt Mesh' link between Low-Poly and Sculpt room) feels much easier than in Blender, where you have to call a pie menu etc. etc. To each their own, I guess. All of these advantages (imo) seem defeated - for the time being - by sheer instability of both the Low-Poly workflow and the link to Sculpt room. Breaking links, Pose tool not working, awkward behaviour of so many tools available. I'll keep my fingers crossed and stick to Blender / PolyQuilt for now for a combo of polygonal editing and quick sculptural tweaks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EDIT: It is very unreliable in 2021 since the result is not working consistently here an example : Edited July 12, 2021 by polynut 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Advanced Member ebitz Posted July 12, 2021 Advanced Member Report Share Posted July 12, 2021 On 7/10/2021 at 4:33 PM, ebitz said: Concerning "construct new Shader". Specifically when trying to construct a new shader from one of the two existing default matcaps, after naming, the screen will freeze but not crash. Simply adjusting the window around in the monitor unfreezes it. However 3d coat will enter you into the PBR parameters rather than the Matcap dialog. If you cancel the operation at this point the new matcap shader is created anyway. From there you can edit the shader settings and the matcap dialog will appear as expected. Simply put the matcap dialog for "construct new shader" is replaced initially with the PBR dialog instead. Another issue is that once a new matcap is created from one of the existing default ones, there is a file that fails to be generated into that new shaders userprefs folder. This missing file is the " CustomSampler3.dds". I have found significant viewport performance when this file is present. Now, once you construct new shaders from the new user shaders the file comes along and things work as they should. I have no idea why this "CustomSampler3.dds" file increases my performance or why it is relevant. This error is also present in 4.9.75 On Linux Ubuntu 21.04 Based. I have discovered what the CustomSampler3.dds does for a user created matcap shader. This specific .dds file allows you to see your pose tool gradient colors. If you have created a new matcap and do not see the gradient colors from the pose tool in your scene just copy the "CustomSampler3.dds" file to your user matcap created file in your Documents folder directory. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andrew Shpagin Posted July 12, 2021 Author Report Share Posted July 12, 2021 12.07.21 3DCoat-2021.01 - Reassigning shaders fixed. - "View->Show separate axis" works correctly. - If the scene has nodes attached the baking dialog will remind to bake nodes first. - "Bake->Bake w/ Per Pixel Painting w/ Displacement" bakes the color from layers and shader correctly. - Nodes baking into scene correct. - a lot of small polishing, a lot of icons updated. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Advanced Member Elemeno Posted July 12, 2021 Advanced Member Report Share Posted July 12, 2021 so 130 euros to upgrade to 2021 which personally doesn't seem like a worth while upgrade... why so expensive when 4.9 has more or less all the same features.... i mean ive had V4 for a couple of years now and in that time ive had voxels breaking and lose work... and 2021 still has this so whats the point of the upgrade.

I use both and they both have uses that the other cant or doesn't do as well, so it's not an either/or thing imo, I will say that this has a lot less bugs than I've been used to experiencing on older installs and it's more responsive than ever, before you even get to new features so it was a no-brainer upgrade for me in my work.
