I run 3dcoat on Fedora kinoite through an Ubuntu 22.04 distrobox image and it works pretty well. I mainly use it for sculpting and texture painting although I haven't tested it for too many hours yet in this set up. I used to just dual boot into windows for 3dcoat and other applications during the wayland-nvidia dark ages. The only problem I've run into is that I can't load .3b files when using the 3dcoat 22.04 executable but it works perfectly fine when using the 20.04 one. I don't know if there's a difference these but I haven't run into any issues yet. 3DCoat-2024.28-02 is currently unusable however. I haven't tried anything to get it to work but the UI just disappears after a few seconds of loading.

Hi, It's no longer there - all because I opened someone's file that doesn't use 3D Coat - this must surely be a bug? And needs fixing I downloaded from GitHub - change the download name from io-coat3d_main to io-coat3D and now it seems to be, on a primarily test, working again. I did not delete any files or folders whatsoever. Thank you for your help, its appreciated - Hopefully, it's all working again

For Blender 4.3 the correct location is C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\Blender Foundation\Blender\4.3\extensions\user_default\io_coat3D

Please give more details so that we can repeat this and pass it on to the developer.

Hi, Thanks for the reply - Do you mean under 'Get extensions'? It does not appear there. It's only available, as I see it, under Add-ons

Is right, my Exchange folder is also located on C:\Users\<username>\Documents\AppLinks\3D-Coat\Exchange\ Object texture folder, I let it empty   reinstall the addon on Extension folder, not Addons

Hello Try switching on Remember own brush radius... Edit Menu > Preferences > Brushing

I found a way to do rightclicking on the preset and unchecking the radius box, is that the only(one way) to do it?

Hi! New user here and i have a badword question. I created a few presets for brushes is there any way to maintain the brush, is there any way to maintain the brush size when switching between tools/brushs/presets? everytime that i change, it change the radius of it. Thank you in advance!

I took the time to carefully step through this live work session recording: and thought it well worth the time. I don't think it can be called a "tutorial" because there is no instruction, but the creator took care to make the tools, brushes, and settings clear and visible. If you want to understand how a production modeler goes about creating complex hard surface shapes in a Voxel workflow, this gives a nice glimpse into one modeler's approach. Intermediate to advanced usage. It stopped when the HIGHRES Voxel result was complete, and did not continue into retopology/UVs and then texturing.  

Jama is demo'ing how his team is using a high end hand-held scanner to capture object data at incredibly high resolution. He uses a Vox Hide workflow starting at the timestamp below: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pPSHhdB0770&t=1547s to clean up and refine the scan data into usable form. For most of us, a photogrammetry approach is for now a workable alternative.

Vizcom you can upload a sketch or a 3D model.

The Blender Applink was working great one day, the next it wasn't. Figured out that the problem arose because I opened a Blender file from another user that doesn't have 3DC so they didn't have the Applink add-on installed. The Exchange Folder and Object/Texture folder was empty under the scene tab-3D Coat Applink settings. This is despite the fact that I do have 'Load UI' unchecked in Blender's preferences so in theory, it should have loaded all my default UI settings including the Applink details. This must be a bug, surely I have uninstalled the addon - done a restart, reinstalled addon It now reads as... Exchange Folder = C:\Users\name\Documents\AppLinks\3D-Coat\Exchange\ Object/Texture folder = C:\Users\name\Documents\3DC2Blender\ApplinkObjects\ It's still not working. It's sending an *.fbx to the location but when you open 3DC it's not there, nothing appears Can anyone confirm these are the right exchange & object/texture locations ? Or how to get it working again When opening another users Blender file - can it be fixed so that it retains the relevant 3d Coat Applink Settings Thanks in advance  

Hi, Thanks for the reply. I don't have OneDrive installed. I figured out how the problem started. It all worked until I opened a Blender file from another user that does not use 3DC and so doesn't have the add-on installed.
