Some model parts have staked islands and other parts don't. Before baking just move the extras out of another Polygroup and keep it hide for baking. Move them back after. After baking, when using a normal map doesn't exactly work because the vertex normal are inverted, that step need an extra work. When multiple areas with different normals are mapped to the same UV space, the baked normal map can become inaccurate. Do you need to keep resources ? If not will be more efficient to work with uDims splitting the model uv islands over squares of the UV space.  

Seems to work with this UV setup, i guess the algorithm in 3DCoat isn't a big fan of UV stacking

I'm still learning to make good UVs on soft surface objects, and there's always weird artifacts when i bake and paint stuff in 3DCoat im not sure if im doing UV's in a way that 3DCoat doesn't like or what's up      

fixed it , the brush default depth is set to -100 so every time i have to use it i have to reset the number to a positive value .

Yes, Auto seams for Clusters it is not working as expected. Thanks for point it up.

I'm testing out 3DC for creating uvs.  I think the cluster tool is really useful for quickly creating islands and then unwrapping However - the tool isn't quite working the way I'm expecting.  I'm not sure if this is a bug or I'm just missing something. My expected behavior is that I've i create these clusters, it would create seams along those boundaries - particularly if I have add auto seams toggled on.  However when I hit unwrap, the unwrapper acts as if I have no seams

It's working well in my machine! maybe you can try to re install or clear the 3dcoat cache.

Thanks. I don't seem to have steady stroke in my panel. I was using scrape.  Edit* Okay, I see other tools do have it.  I restarted 3d coat, started a new project and now it seems to be fine. If it happens again, I will check out steady stroke. 

Is Steady Stroke turned OFF ?

Desktop 2025-01-17 21-48-30.mp4   2024.32 broke voxel brushes  

Does anyone know why this is happening? I am sculpting the box. If I use the mouse it works fine. If I use a stylus, my stylus pointer is at the corner of the box where it should be, but as soon as I start drawing, a black line appears moving the sculpting cursor a few inches away from where it should be. So now, that circle is digging into the face of the box instead of sculpting the edges. As soon as I lift the stylus, the cursor jumps back to where it should be. Any ideas what is going on?? Thanks

Hi Oleg, This happens using the tablet pen and also the mouse. As you can see, it is marked to store practically all options, including symmetry.   symmetry_problem_3dcoat2024.mov   When I click on any brush or tool in the left panel, the symmetry is maintained. But every time I click on the preset (using mouse or pen tablet), the symmetry is immediately deactivated.  

Bless you)

Hi Try switching to restore default text size on Edit > Preferences > Themes

When i switching full screen mod all interface elements get mixed up and break. 

I checked, the tablet has nothing to do with it. Is the symmetry saved in the preset settings?
