New Member instant-strudels Posted August 31, 2021 New Member Report Share Posted August 31, 2021 symmetry.mp4 I'm completely new to 3DCoat, when I try to paint it only works sometimes. When it doesn't work it seems to be when I can't see the other side of the model in the viewport. Can anybody please explain this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carlosan Posted August 31, 2021 Report Share Posted August 31, 2021 Hi Do you have any other layers on top that occlude the current layer used for painting ? Are you using latest version ? Avoid to use Layer0 for paint, it is used internally for other operations. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
New Member instant-strudels Posted August 31, 2021 Author New Member Report Share Posted August 31, 2021 Hi, I have some normal maps and an ambient occlusion layer above the layer I'm painting on (not layer0 but thanks for the tip). I'm not sure they would occlude the painting however. Currently using version 2021.21, a free trial. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carlosan Posted August 31, 2021 Report Share Posted August 31, 2021 Try switching off all layer but active. Create new project using any default texture paint meshes. Its working ? Model UVmap, both sides are symmetrical ? Have the model overlapped islands ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
New Member instant-strudels Posted August 31, 2021 Author New Member Report Share Posted August 31, 2021 No result from switching off all inactive layers. I tried a new project with 3DCoat's own meshes and I'm getting the same problem. Do you mean is the model symmetrical? Because in some places it isn't perfectly symmetrical. And actually I did have some UVs overlapping but fixed now. Unfortunately still getting the same problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carlosan Posted August 31, 2021 Report Share Posted August 31, 2021 Are you using latest version 2021.39 ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
