Member sojos Posted November 21, 2011 Member Report Share Posted November 21, 2011 Hello, how can I get from the retopo to the paint-room? I have a made a model with the retopo function. Now I want to paint on this new model. When I click on <paint> the room is empty. Do I have to export and re-import? -andre- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's worth taking a look at the manual first to see what each one does...and it should take no more than a few minutes to get an idea. Once you've "merged" the mesh, then it will appear in the Paint Room. Make sure you either create UV for the mesh (in the Retopo Room) or choose Auto-UV when you merge (there will be a dialogue box with options).
