Hi Andrew,

I'm still missing this....

I assume I only need to be in fill mode?

some tiny nitpicks:

1. When you click on e.g. 'layers' at the top of the screen, there appears a dropdown. When you now move the mouse over 'symmetry', the layers-dropdown will be closed, but no new will be opened. In windows usually the dropdowns appear just when you hover over their buzzword on top of the screen (after initially clicking one of them). You can test it with any windows toolbar you like to see what I mean.

2. Is it possible to smooth the variation of the brush stroke when using a tablet? Something like the 'softstroke' button would be cool. I don't know if this would work out, but right now my strokes look a bit unsteady due to small changes in brush radius.

Hi Andrew,

A couple of minor issues:

1. I've positioned my layers list next to my preset list but when I close the program and re-open it the prest list has moved.

In fact the preset list seems to have a life of it's own, move it to one place, re-open 3d Brush and it's moved again.

2. When I open 3D Brush it always opens to fill the screen, if I resize it on the desk top it does not stay that size when I re-open it.

3. This is probable not a small thing to change, but along with many other users, I have 2 monitors and it would be great if I could

move all my pallets over to the second monitor instead of having them cramped up on the one screen.

Thanks

Andy

When you select a material nothing happens. You have first to activate it in one of the channels (depth, col, spec).

Sorry still don't get it, what exactly should I be doing?

It seems that you are using Vista and maybe you are logged not like administrator and access to "Progam Files" is limited, so 3DB is not able to save options. So you can do one of the next things:

1) Log in with admonistrative rights

2) Install 3DB into another folder (for example d:\3D-Brush\ )

I have turned it off because it produces more bugs than adds something useful. Anyway, every face is divided adaptively on micropolygon level (iven in standart subdivision). The only difference between usual and adaptive subdivisions mid-poly mesh is produced in different ways.

In general, I think that you have lost only extra bugs with adaptive subdivision. Actually, no quality or functionality was not lost. Maybe I will get it back when it will be less buggy.

No, it works in almost every mode. You should choose the prossure dependence and this box will appear.

1. sure you are right. It is not so important, but may be I will fix it.

2. There is special mode when brush radius is not dependent on pressure. May be it can help. I know, you mean other feature, I will think if it possible to do...

Yes, there is rare bug when sometimes you need to activate materials manually. I have just found and fixed it. 2.07 will be release next week and this bugfix will e there. You can read there how to avoid this problem:

Thanks, it does work, I just didn't realise you needed to choose Pressure Dependence.

Well 3D Brush 2.06 seems to be able to save its options fine, I only get this problem in the 2.07 beta3.

3D Brush 2.07 beta3 does seems to be saving its options file ok, so I doubt it is that.
