![]() ![]() This has been a horrible experience trying to learn this. I never created them, if you have to do that? I figured that they came over from Zbrush. I tried to export the maps as well, but they came up blank. I used the method from the file menu to export with textures. Once the materials from Zbrush miraculously popped up, I tried exporting it as a FBX and as an OBJ. I have not painted on this file at all in 3dCoat. The file I am trying to work on and that has all the painting and the texture is from Zbrush. It has been an issue I have put 10 + hours in already. Start slowly - where is your model originating from? When you export it (from that place) what format are you exporting it? And when you export from 3DCoat after you paint on it, how are you exporting it? Be very specific as to the steps you are doing and what isn't working for you. The problem I'm having is you are all over the place here with your description of what the heck you are doing. I just exported every map for that model which is colored now in 3dcoat from the Zbrush file. ![]() This 3d modeling stuff is really sucking due to the lack of color everytime I waste countless hours on stuff. It took me a day of picking up Iclone to make a 4 minute video with different cameras and I had never used it or anyother 3d program in my life. I actually understood Zbrush and how to get around but the maps and color not going to other programs was literally ticking me off. I do understand placing the files in Iclone. If I can even get a PSD file in 3d coat, I would be tickled to death at the moment. Now some files in the past had fbm folders with them. I am looking at my model now in 3dCoat and it has the matcaps from Zbrush. The funniest thing is one of Pixalogics head guys said it was not possible to export a model with the matcaps. ![]() Now if I take a colored model into Zbrush, I can get it to leave with that color. Not once out of trying probably a hundred times, have I ever seen color from a model transfer from Zbrush. I do one of each every time I export from one program to the other. How are you exporting your object to work with in various paint programs - FBX or OBJ? But if they do disappear then it's likely you have separate layers which you are somehow not exporting. That's what you want - you don't want them to disappear no matter where theyc ame from. Assuming you exported your object first, it *should* contain your materials you assigned to it. Its like the settings are stuck despite resetting the workspace, shutting down and whatever else I do. Now, no matter what I try to paint in 3dcoat, a material I used keeps going on the item from earlier. However, its a mess and cannot find anywhere to exactly explain it. I understand that they are treated differently for different things. I cannot grasp why this stuff cannot just go along with the file. I am about to pull out my hair with this. However, they are gone whenever I export it. My paint and materials showed up from Zbrush out of nowhere. Now I am having problems galore in 3d coat. ![]() Zbrush kind of drives me crazy (but my wife would say it's a short trip). The author is also VERY nice - he always has a Christmas sale because the holidays are very important to him, so if it turns out you do like it I'm sure you can get it at a good price. Have you tried 3DCoat? I really like that program, and I know there is a free trial. Thank you for all your help and patience with me. I am willing to learn something new, but I want something that does not seem like a patched together dinosaur like Zbrush. I really want to learn this the right way and have put tons of hours into this. In Photoshop, I cannot seem to figure out how to get a map generated for the paint. I am trying to paint glasses that are on a face. I tend to have little small dots that hit other areas. The problem I run into Paint 3d is that there is not good control on the painting like in Zbrush or Photoshop. Would Mudbox be a good choice? I really like the idea of a real 3d environment and not the way Zbrush does it. What is the term for that? I have a struggle finding things online because I still do not know all of the terms but am getting better. It is nice for this project because it directly saves the paint on the file. What other options do I have? Paint 3 is obviously very limited. It makes no sense and I am done with Zbrush after even learning the horrid interface. The paint never aligns and it is not like in the videos where you flip it horizontally or vertically to fix. Zbrush screws up everything when I create maps. The only option that I have used that works is Paint 3d. I am trying to paint something very simple. ![]()
