New Member AlbionWizard Posted September 7, 2015 New Member Report Share Posted September 7, 2015 Hello and nice to meet you all fellow artists! I have a set of hand painted texture I have made from photoshop and need to be applied to a collection of buildings. These include textures for walls, roofs, wood, bricks etc that can be applied to parts of buildings. I would like to use a similar tool from photoshop called clone pattern if theres one in 3d coat? Or is there another method you might use to ease the process than using the brush tool and apply your textures as stamps? Thanks in regard!

Advanced Member Solution Ballistic_Tension Posted September 8, 2015 Advanced Member Solution Report Share Posted September 8, 2015 I would try in PPP Smart Materials then click on the +NEW in the window on bottom that will bring up the Smart Material Properties > in there click green ball which says ... click to select color texture... then you can load in /pick your image / tga,bmp,png etc file I don't see a psd file format . name it what you want set your Preferred Mapping (you can change this) I use From Camera then save as new . Once its in select it it will overlay on your model you can resize ,rotate etc I use the paint bucket tool with Use color [albedo] Tolerance turned off then click on your model and your image is on it (both sides or all way around it this way) I love this feature in 3dc. I don't have PS loaded yet so I have not tried using Textures > Import > Layers Color it says it will bring in the color channels from PSD file to all layers. I have not tried to see what different resolution on images when applied on a model look better or not I would think a 1920 looks better then say 800 not sure how 3dc handles images in SM meaning if there is a limit on them /3dc maximum resolution . just my way of doing this im sure there are other ways still getting use to the program myself Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
