Member Chloe99 Posted July 29, 2011 Author Member Report Share Posted July 29, 2011 I am using dropbox for the transfer of bigger files between me and a partner. Ah, you're going to Shapeways. I really hope you will succeed and tell us how you did because i'm trying the same things. Did you print colour before? Is it suitable for a fairly good resolution picture like that? I've done 3d printing before, but not in color yet. I wish. Still trying to get this first textured file right. day 17, *sigh* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Chloe99 Posted July 30, 2011 Author Member Report Share Posted July 30, 2011 I've done similar things before. The workflow essentially should be similar to this: Merge Scan to Voxels, Repair it so that it missing parts from the Face a filled in if need be. Export High Poly Quadmesh (you don't need to retopo when the goal is 3D.Printing) import to the Paint workspace with Ptex Bake the original textures from the Scan-Model to the new mesh ● Merge Scan to Voxels, Repair it so that it missing parts from the Face a filled in if need be. Okay. I did File->Import Mesh for Voxelizing ● Export High Poly Quadmesh (you don't need to retopo when the goal is 3D.Printing) I RMB on the layer in voxtree and selected AUTOPO with Ptex ● import to the Paint workspace with Ptex yup, ● Bake the original textures from the Scan-Model to the new mesh this is where I'm not exactly sure I'm doing it right. I click Textures-> Texture Baking Tool-> then under 'input mesh' I browse for and select the original .obj file I originally merged into the voxel room. Then there's a message 'baking in progress'. But I don't see the texture appearing on the mesh. Should it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
