I have had 3d coat for years but it is really hard to find tutorials. I struggled for years but blender now has a bridge and that is a huge help.

@vlweb3d Год назад

That's why I gave up on 3D Coat and turned to Blender. There's a definite lack of 3D Coat tutorials - compared to Blender - and that's one of the reasons why I switched.

@dougwarner59 Год назад

@@vlweb3d have you looked into Udemy? right now they have courses(that you can access forever after buying them) using 3D Coat for less than 12 dollars.

@alberthawkins9964 Год назад

I am a Blender and zBrush user who installed 3D Coat last year after zBrush was purchased by Mason. I have made a few attempts to learn it but I have not found a good course or tutorial series for someone who is new to the software which is why I have not made the jump and purchased it.

@dougwarner59 Год назад

@@alberthawkins9964 Yeah, that makes sense; I'm trying to make a game and I was hoping 3D coat could help speed up the model-making process because I am trying to do everything: programming, modeling, and art...(well mostly everything; I will use standard assets that are generic enough to not take away from the originality of the game.)

@volker2714 Год назад

Lack of tutorials is the main reason why I haven't used my 3D Coat license much. That, and the tricky workflow with the different 'rooms', transfering the model from one room to the next while the exact order for specific tasks is unclear, makes it really hard to learn. 3D Coat has many great features noone knows about, because there is no way to find out about them but trial and error. I don't have the time for that. Might use it more in the future though anyway, since I will never update ZBrush again after the hostile takeover by Maxon.

@SVisionary Год назад

Hand painting textures is 10x better in 3D coat than just about any other option out there. While I don't like it's material generation as much, it definitely gets the job done.

@UlfricStromcloak Год назад

One of the last remaining 3D software that lets you buy perpetual license. It is a great software & I am thinking of buying it especially now that I am making mostly stylized character. It's a great tool for hand painted texture & it's automated retopo tool is the best IMO.

@deery4389 9 месяцев назад

3D coat is amazing for hard surface design, For concepting i perfer it more than Zbrush and blender. Once you get the tools down it just feel really fluid.

@rocthered Год назад

I mainly use sculpting to make morph of my character (where vertex order has to be kept). Both zbrush and blender can do it.. although zbrush is too expensive for just that. So currently I mainly use blender. It is possible to do it with 3d coat, but it is quite complicated to set up and also lagging to do the sculpting.. which stops me purchasing the fulll version. The texura is quite good though.

@nonexternal Год назад

Im confused? First u make it seem like its something that can be used within blender, with the naming. 2ndly, The price is to a point where if u want to pay for a sculpting tool, then why not pay for the best one there is; aka Zbrush. For the other things, blender can do. Yes its a all in one program, but as some people say here, theres very little tutorials on it etc. Which i personally think is a huge factor for any program, free or not. I would lvoe to try it but the pricetag is to steep, a 30 day trial isnt enough time for me personally to get used to a new program to make a verdict

@noodledood12 Год назад

I suppose in depends on how you read it. "in blender" refers to the "sculpting and painting" part, not the fact that its an addon. Also, I feel like an entire month is a pretty generous trial compared to most programs over given you a week of free use

@nonexternal Год назад

@@noodledood12 Yeah i get that. But i can't help but feel its done this way on purpose. Oh don't get me wrong, a month is better than 2 weeks that a lot of users do. But my point is that I think 1 month can be to short to figure out the feel of a program, what it has and not. I tried the trail, but it had problems with UI scailing and no obvious way to fix it, so that was it for me. Even blender understands that UI scailing is important and makes it the first option that appear in preferances x)

@nonexternal Год назад

Yes, it might be a good program for what it does. And i get its important to focus on things working first of all, but it felt a little like zbrush where it dosnt care about user costumization. Which to me is a HUGE deal.

@ArtaWorks Год назад

There is infinite learning version on 3D Coat. You're only limited with export otherwise you can use every feature of the software to learn everything you need before you decide on buying it and using it in production.

the true megamind workflow zbrush ( youve been on the internet enough do the same thing as adobe its allways morally correct ;3 ) 3d coat for super fast retopo, substance for texturing and blender for rigging and animation and rendering Trust dont lock yourself in one program to do all, use them all at their strengths

@QuesoGr7 Год назад

I mainly just use it for retopology but I'll give the other stuff a go!

@Alfa-de8cq Год назад

The biggest reason this much people using blender is because it's free. If you have money to spend you will grab maya or zbrush over blender all day every day. 3d coat is kinda costly for hobby sculpting and not an industry standard if you looking for job appliances. That's why no one really talks about it.

@dnashj33 Год назад

It is an Industry Standard if you are a Concept Artist or Hand-painting Texture Artist. There are many great applications out there that are not considered "Industry Standard." Even Blender itself...as great as it is...is not an Industry Standard. Why use a FREE app if it is not an "Industry Standard." I mean, you imply that you cannot find work in the industry without INDUSTRY STANDARD software proficiency, so why bother with Blender then, if hardly any studios use it...right?

@ollicron7397 Год назад

3d coat is pretty nice, but its UI is really antiquated. Apart from that the problem 3D coat has is that to learn it, it pretty much had to have been your first 3D program. Because it will take an eternity to learn how to use it well, the curve is about as long as zbrush. Handpainting with it is very easy though, but Blender is better and offers a cleaner texturing finish.

I am a 3d coat user for 5 years and i only use it for thing blender cannot handle fast enough and of course for painting since nothing come even close!

@paulworster3683 Месяц назад

i like 3d Coat but i'd disagree that its and intuitive program, the UI does not seem intuitive at all and i think they should really redesign it to be more approachable and make better sense for new comers. i think if they did the up take of this app would be far greater. Zbrush is still the king of unintuitive ones to learn but 3d coat is a close second imho.

@mymyChannel771 Год назад

Before you consider 3d coat read this. after more then a year with the software i can say it is decently powerful in many areas. but it is important to know, it is very buggy. while it is fast into implementing new features you will find bugs all across the platform. in addition to that, the UX is pretty bad. divided into rooms, while all the tools just stack on each other, its crowded and un organized. The software is very technical and not artist friendly, understanding voxels takes time. its not multi res like Zbrush. they implemented multi res last week, but its new and many users report bugs in many areas. very few tutorials and most of them are low quality from a pov of teaching you. In addition to that, the modeling room is very poor. you will find the modeling process not fluid and sometimes buggy. The "3d coat textura" room which let you paint is again kind of buggy, and does not allow you to mix smart materials and save them as a new one like substance does. it does have good brush performance that is nice for hand paint stylized stuff. baking is ok and come handy, but you will find bugs there as well uvs is kinda nice, not better then what u have in maya In the end its vert powerful sculpting program with very poor UX. if you up to get technical and take the time to lean it you might like it. if you just want a smooth experience then pay the extra and go Zbrush

@dnashj33 Год назад

Not true. The UI was patterned after Photoshop and therefore it is very familiar to new users, straightaway, than Substance and ZBrush. The BETA builds can be buggy because new features in development oftentimes take time to refine and stabilize. That is why there are STABLE builds made available every 2-3 months. Development spend a lot of time working on stability prior to these builds. The different workspaces simply reflect the distinct stages parts of a traditional 3D pipeline. It is like having multiple specialty applications inside a singular application.

@@mymyChannel771 ....Photoshop is still the No.1 texturing app among all Texture artists, regardless if they use 3DCoat, Substance or Mari for the bulk of their work. When Pilgway was designing the UI from scratch in V3 Beta, the community ASKED for the UI to be patterned after Photoshop. Everyone in the 3D industry already knows PS well, so it makes the learning curve in 3DCoat much shorter.

@mymyChannel771 Год назад

@Don Nash well, that is not how you design a UX for a program. you don't start by "ok, some of my software solutions provided by another one that is popular, ill start using that one as a main layout" Substance guys made it right. they took things from photoshop like the naming of the layer blending so new users can easily feel at home with that system. but the entire UX was newly made from the ground up. You can disagree with me if you like, but in the end, 3D coat is a program with powerful tools but still cant establish its popularity. the UX is objectively hard. it means that for most people its hard to understand and get confident with it. 3D coat feels very technical. like it made by programmers for artists. it fights with you on every move.

@BrianLockett Год назад

There are about 10 bazillion videos on RU-vid titled as something like "How Come Nobody Is Talking about 3D-Coat?!" I own the software. It's great and very capable, but its chief problem is a lack of quality marketing and a severe lack of tutorials and proper documentation. Same problem they've always had. The development team are great and very responsive, but they could use some help with a marketing team and maybe some hired third-party team for documentation.

@BrianLockett Год назад

And while the UI seems a bit "dated," I'd still rather have its basic layout than ZBrush's quirky nonsense. I can live with an underwhelming UI over an ad-hoc hot mess that "you just have to get used to it." At least you can find what you need in 3D-Coat...as long as you know the feature exists. 😅

Blender being free doesn't make it a better sculpting toolset than ZBrush or 3DCoat. It's texture painting tools also are NOT better.

@dougwarner59 Год назад

@vomitbag12 Год назад

Say what you want about 3D Coat or Mudbox or Blender or whatever. There is simply no other software like ZBrush. You can probably get along with the others, but ZB is light years ahead of everything else.

@dnashj33 Год назад

Really? ZBrush has high end retopo, texture painting, UV layout, and PBR Viewports, too? ZBrush has copied a lot of what 3DCoat offered, over the years and still doesn't offer Voxel Sculpting (dynamesh cannot touch Voxel sculpting when blocking out initial to intermediate forms...it just takes already stretched polygons and remeshes it). You can sculpt and apply PBR textures simultaneously, to a low or high poly mesh. Can ZBrush do that? Nobody said ZBrush wasn't great at sculpting. But to claim it is light years ahead of everyone else...in what, exactly? The gap between ZBrush and 3DCoat in Sculpting is actually quite thin. Just do a side by side comparison, yourself, using like brushes on the very same mesh. I did this and could not notice a significant difference in brush feel/behavior/performance. You will see for yourself. The customization of the brushes in 3DCoat is better in some ways than ZB, so if you don't like the way a trim brush works in 3DCoat, you can tweak the Tool Options, to make it match what you are used to in ZB. Sure, there are some things ZB will do better, but the there are also plenty of areas, in sculpting alone, where 3DCoat outshines ZB. Sculpt Layers is one of those. You can use Dynamic Subdivision and even apply a boolean to an object with Sculpt Layers (has Morph Target functionality built in, in 3DC), and the Sculpt Layers will remain intact. In ZBrush you cannot do either of these things, with Sculpt Layers active. My point about 3DCoat is that it is FAR closer to ZB in terms of sculpting, than you presume.
