Game Asset Pipeline : 3D-Coat Auto Retopology

This is the second step of the Game Asset Creation pipeline: Retopology.
I use tools like Blender or 3D-Coat for retopo, but in this part I will show you - because we never had a tutorial for this - how to use the Auto Retopology feature of 3D-Coat.
Basically it is an algorithm that tries to create a low poly mesh with a certain amount of polygons automatically.
When the retopo mesh is created, you can still adjust the mesh with tools like edge delete, insertion or a brush tool to relax the topology.
3D-Coat is not a free tool, but there are affordable licenses for indie game developers as well.

I love your videos Jayanam!, I hope you do much more with 3D Coat in the future.

Thx, I will put this to my list

@LaxmikantMeenaconnectorg 5 лет назад

You can directly export High poly mesh directly by default '3D coat app link' addon in blender!

Good tutorial thank! Need 2.8 retopo tutorial.

Thanks for the video, - but if I did retopology in another editor and made a large pothole on the highpoly-model, can I automatically lower the retopology on the pothole in 3d-coat?

thanks :)

Hi! First of all, thanks for the Video! I just started working with Unreal Engine to create a game. But because i cant afford all these assets, i have to make my own. But i have a small problem. When i load the Object into 3D Coat, and do the exact same as you did, i do not get the same result like you. My Object just looks like the same as in blender, i dont have the yellow/green "Texture" and also no grid. Do you have a solution for me how to solve this? I would really appreciate it. Thank you very much! :)

@Xperto_ 5 лет назад

This is great! I have one question: at this point, how can I use the high poly mesh to make a normal map for the low poly mesh?

@JayAnAm 5 лет назад

I will cover this in the next video, in which I will bake the normal map with Substance Painter, which makes it really easy and with good quality. Other possibilities are baking it with Blender and Cycles or using a tool like xNormal (which is free).

@@JayAnAm that's perfect!! Thank you!

@szaibot 4 года назад

Why not use 3d-coat for baking?

@lehfeldt1 4 года назад

Can You use Zbrush for retopo? I happen to have that license but not 3d coat

3DCoat - Cool program

Yep!

3d coat might be the goat

@darkknight4353 4 года назад

3d coat auto retopo is better than zremesh or Almost same result?

@JaySamurai79 4 года назад

I've made a character that I will animate for a fighting game. I've just finished sculpting in zbrush and wasnt sure if I should use zremesher. What method would be the best way to retoplogise a character for animation. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

@simonzhang7008 4 года назад

for thing that has to move, i think you have to retopo by hand, because you need to know how much geometry you need for the deformation of the rig

@hachemihadjallah2032 4 года назад

Can we use the first base mesh before sculpting as a low poly ? or we must do the retopo to the high poly mesh ?

@JayAnAm 4 года назад

You can do this, but I like to create a retopo in most cases just for optimization reasons

@incridablekarthi228 5 лет назад

I haven't used 3d coat much ,so can I know which features are good and easy in 3d coat in comparison with blender in your point of view :)

@JayAnAm 5 лет назад

* The sculpting is good and fast, but I use Zbrush most of the time, Blender is slower but I like the brushes more * Retopo is built-in and very powerful * Texturepainting is great in 3D-Coat and it has full PBR support * Hardsurface sculpting is supported with booleans, primitives, cut-outs with free shapes

@@JayAnAm thx, sure I'll try it out , going to check out your other videos about it :)
