I'm Lost here. I'm on Windows 11 and 3D coat version 4.9.72. There's no Start and no My3dcoatData. Where do I find the place to change the Path? Thanks! Edit: Blender 3.6.1 works fine. 3D coat is written in the same place. Yet I can pull back with that version its only Blender 4.1 that it fails.

“3DCoat” is trying to create a user data folder (which contains user settings and assets) inside “C:\Users\USER_NAME\OneDrive\???????\3DCoat”. That is incorrect. It should create it inside “C:\Users\USER_NAME\Documents\3DCoat”. To workaround this problem: Start > start typing “Edit the system environment variables” > Environment Variables… > System variables > New… > Variable name: COAT_USER_PATH Variable value: C:\Users\USER_NAME\Documents\My3DCoatData (specify your user name inside) Source

As far as I know, OneDrive is not compatible with the correct operation of 3DCOAT.

The app appears to be broken in Blender 4.1. You can send but not get back. Works in Bender 3.6 

In order to describe the problem to the developer, I need steps to reproduce the bug. Or a problematic scene. If you have such an opportunity, please send it.ScreenCaptureProject1205.mkv

It happens when use generally every tools that does extrude or freeze with Ignore Back Face checked on. I simply perform a lasso selection with them on some objects. It happens randomly, even on plain surface. On an symmetrical object, it could happen on one side and not on the other. I did not check Depth Limit or On Plane. The artifacts do not appear when Ignore Back Face is turned off.

try latest version please

May I know more details?

If your question is about the 3ds Max applink, then it is under development. For general questions about how 3Dcoat works, ask them, they will be happy to help you.

Hi, Sorry, but it is not possible to download more than one material at a time. Could you please provide more information about the issue  with filtering? Thank you!

Thanks again! Appreciated. I think it might be worth pointing the devs to maybe rename the default template to attract more users, as this functionality inside Coat is absolutely insane and the  most easy way Ive seen this implemented in any software. Maybe there could be added an additional template called "Seamless Texture Sculpting" that uses the Translation you described. And the current "3x3 Tile" one could be renamed in "3x3 - Instanced Tiling" or something, so that new users don't get confused and are immediately offered a template for the "Translation" approach without manual setup.

3DCoat 2022.10 works on the same OS, and even opens files saved with 2024.06. I'd still love to use version 2024 though.

I had the same issue on Manjaro linux (an Arch derivative). I  tracked it down to the gtk2 theme crashing when opening the open file dialog. My fix was to change the gtk2 theme from Adwaita to Raleigh. My fix is running 3dcoat with: GTK2_RC_FILES=/usr/share/themes/Raleigh/gtk-2.0/gtkrc ./3dcoat-Ubuntu22.04  

It doesn't matter if I open it with File -> Open or from the splash screen via "Open Recent Project".

how do you download more than 1 material at a time? the filtering is also broken it seems

is there a version of this that works with max 2024? only blender on webpage is 3Dcoat still being developed? i would like to buy it but this forum seems dead and looking for tips on where to get started. very confusing software lol...

I found this strange behaviour when using several tools with no back faces. Freeze, surface and voxal extrude tools all have this behaviour when performing lasso selection.
