Any chance to get this images updated for the future release ? C:\Program Files\3DCoat-2026\data\Splash

Such good news! @Carlosan is this a shot from a new widget with QT in a new 3DC build? Great news to know that 3DC will be looking into more modelling functionality! The more you can do in the modelling room the more you can produce for game assets, full workflow, right there in 3DC. If one could build a simple PBR shader for polygon objects, with some maps, one could do some trim sheets with a full material. As of now I use the custom texture option in the dropdown in the modelling room, however I can only use one map. I did read there was a new option added for rendering polygons. Being that the devs are doing such fundamental changes, perhaps having the ability to have different renderers per room would assist with this. Maybe using another renderer could help, perhaps Filament, but I trust what the devs are doing. Just my 2 cents. 

I read this but I couldn't find Shift, only Ctrl and Ctrl didn't have Reduce. 

There should also be a REDUCE option in the Surface mode SHIFT and SHIFT & CTRL list menus.

After opening Profiler, all the slowness problems disappear.  1.json 2.json profile_results_tmp.json 2.txt 1.txt

I solved the problem. It's not in Smooth it's in Clean Clay. My mistake. 

I just installed 2026 so I'll say that one. 

On vetsion 2025 or 2026 ?

There used to be a Reduce option for the Smoothing tool in Surface mode but it's gone. I need to reduce polys only in a certain area. 

Is this still ongoing? I cant get the second panel to pull up at all.

New Project Folder option Baked Textures: Cavity, AO, Normal, Geometry are still saved on Global Temp folder   That maps must be saved on Project Folder > data > Temp * the folder was created, but it is empty

Simple Mask Node lacks of Degree Map  - Old Node   - New Node

Yes, when you add a mask the Out Material is visible. The mask unhide any Material assigned to the layer. Quit the mask and paint over the mesh to see the material applied. We can apply materials in different ways, by painting with a brush, using stencils, or using the fill tool   Try this: paint some strokes over a paint mesh As you can see, only a paint icon is show on the layer   Now add a simple Material on the Node Inspector and a Out Material   A new icon is show on the Layer, right to the paint icon: is the Material icon   On Node Inspector Panel, switch on Show in Object Inspector   On Object Inspector Panel change any parameter, like Gloss in this case   To see the original Color or Gloss previously painted use this nodes   Use GeometryIN node to visualize Normals

I watched this video but I don’t remember seeing him use an actual paint node . What he did do was group a bunch of painted layers and applied a material and material mask on the group . Can I do a paint On that material mask node . Maybe I am not using the correct terminology .  In substance , I can use generators , projection as well as a paint layer if need be like in the attached image1 .  How can I do something similar in 3dCoat  ?   Or like in image 2 . Can I bring in the painted stencil image in to use as a mask as well  Thanks 

Yes you can Dud you have seen this introductory video ?  ?

Very new to 3dCoat and this node base workflow is what got me interesting coming from Substance and Mari background .  Do we have the ability to have a paint node or a layer that we can add to this non-destructive material workflow  ? For example if I have a Mask network  , can I add a paint node/layer for some manual painting on top ?   Thanks

Minimize width size on Node Inspector Panel or any other Panel, some parameters can't be selected anymore //edit Solution on Blender: Panning Left to Right Free Pan: Hold Shift + press and hold the Middle Mouse Button (MMB) and drag the mouse horizontally. Horizontal Scroll: Use Shift + WheelLeft or Shift + WheelRight.

Try exporting as Triangles, not Quads, to see if that has different options. I know quads are typically preferred, but triangles might be needed here to get a better result.
