Folks, Over 10 years ago I purchased 3D Coat and used it merely for voxel smoothing of mesh files. Nothing fancier than that. I stuck to using version 4.8.10, because its scaling of imported files was easy for me us. Later versions used a gumball for scaling and I never figured that out. My old Windows 10 computer finally died and I need to reinstall that old version. Can someone help me, please? I sorely need this version. Thanks, Leo -

The Fill tool's 'Use Color [Albedo] Tolerance' feature isn't working for me. Even with it on, it fills the entire area at once. Is there a fix for this? The Selection Tool is strange as well. -

Please help Thanks 2026-08-24 16-45-19.mp4 -

Making the layer 0 transparent seems to be the safest way to approach this. Not seeing any artifacts. It is also useful to see how to approach this with the node editor. Thank you all. -

Paint room Nodes. When a node has any mask inside you are prevented from any painting or erasing. I have a node that has an edge determination and I would like to hand draw some scratches. That is remove the painted material to the metal material. You can paint and erase on any layer that does not have a mask applied. Using the curvature you can remove paint but it is destructive and will cut through all layers down to the material node on the bottom layer. This isnt going to work. Is there a work around so you can work only on the layer with the masks? -

Layer0 with outOpacity set to 0, then the top layers you can paint anything and create masks for opacity. -

Hey, is the issue with 3DC not remembering stroke types in Sculpting room, Retopo room and possibly in other rooms fixed in version 2026.18? Also, previous versions of 2026 lineup were overwriting user folders during update, is that still the case with 2026.18? Oh, version 2026.16 have issues with selecting objects with H key - quite often it's picking wrong object and some cursor flickering occurs. One more thing, not so big, but there is a long standing issue with symmetry plane size when switching from Render room to other rooms - it becomes way too big. Pretty distracting. -

Carlosan is correct on layer 0, its best to hide layer 0 and do the work on layer 1. When you hide layer 0 , layer 1 shows up ( makes one think the layer 0 is visible). Layer 1 I have the nodes material, out material and then turn down material opacity on layer 1. Add layer 2 add the material set color and out material then paint and erase. -

@IHearNoise you must turn off Layer0 and paint on other channels Avoid painting anything on Layer0: In 3DCoat, Layer 0 acts as the base foundation layer (similar to a background layer in Photoshop) and contains the mesh's default data and base coat for baking. You should avoid painting directly on Layer 0 for any purpose -

Im not having issues with transparency in either the Legacy or on newest other. Im running 3dcoat a A5000 card The newest version requires most everything to be assigned to a node. IE layer 0 I have a material and out material. In the material, I change the opacity to 0 and the base material in 0 is transparent. Level 1 I do the same except leave the opacity at 100. I right click on the layer 1 to fill layer. Now when you use the erase brush layer 1 it will work. Out opacity works also on layer 0 Some of the legacy items on the menu bars no longer work with newest using nodes. Those features are now in the nodes. -

Another workaround is.. In layer0 you can create a node outOpacity and It will manage the opacity. -

Transparency seems to work on legacy version.. altough a bit buggy it seems. When you start to erase parts of the mesh, some square artifacts appear.
