Member hOss Posted June 14, 2013 Member Report Share Posted June 14, 2013 Would there be any way to make the background grey gradient on a separate layer, like in the version 3.x manual, so we could turn it off in order to be able to print the manual? -Patrick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Psmith Posted June 15, 2013 Author Report Share Posted June 15, 2013 . . . old shader preview pics . . . This is the reason nobody ever has written a book about 3D-Coat. Things just keep changing - and, at a pace that nobody can keep up with. Especially not me. Those shader pics weren't changed until the week of the release.

Reputable Contributor AbnRanger Posted July 5, 2013 Reputable Contributor Report Share Posted July 5, 2013 Greg, do you think you could clean up the English in the "Happy Baking Guide" and add it to the V4 Manual? I'm sure it would be an enormous help for a lot of folks. I created a video tutorial for it, and I'd like to point this guide out, in the comments section, as an additional resource. Thanks in advance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Psmith Posted July 5, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 5, 2013 Don: Yes, I did this many months ago and sent the copy to Andrew. I guess he decided not to use it. Greg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reputable Contributor AbnRanger Posted July 5, 2013 Reputable Contributor Report Share Posted July 5, 2013 I think that link is bad (showing 404 error when you click on the link). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Psmith Posted July 5, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 5, 2013 It's because of the apostrophe. You can just copy and paste the entire line into your browser to avoid the error. Edit: Now the link works. Greg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reputable Contributor AbnRanger Posted July 8, 2013 Reputable Contributor Report Share Posted July 8, 2013 Ok, got it. I still think it belongs in the Manual, under the Retopo tools section. Very important addition to V4 and shouldn't be left out of the manual. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frenchy Pilou Posted July 30, 2013 Report Share Posted July 30, 2013 Hi I started the translation in French of your very good manual ! (41 pages / 190) But now it's holidays for me so the end during September! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Member splinetime Posted August 15, 2013 Member Report Share Posted August 15, 2013 Greetings, I posted about this in the New User forum, and so far no reponse. One thing I find terribly confusing is the what goes where. [Folder logic] I understand the idea that the user folder is now where we should store data, but do I pull stuff out of the "program" location (pens, textures..), leave it there.... etc I have a boatload of stuff (textures, penpacks, etc...) in my User..../3D Coat folder, that I have no idea where it came from and where (or if) I should move it. Also preference and config. info It would be truly helpful to have a layout and description of which folders should have what. Where they are located and how to manage them. I know it is dry stuff, but right now I am trying to learn this program and I am certain some of the issues are related to fouled up locations. Are there any existing documentaions of this (I've Googled myself silly: EDIT: I meant to say User.../3D Coat/Layout folder 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Advanced Member Pix Jigsaw Posted August 15, 2013 Advanced Member Report Share Posted August 15, 2013 If you think they are in the wrong folders, why not do a clean install? Then you can go in and see where they are supposed to go. I haven't seen any documentation on the folder structure that 3DC uses. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member splinetime Posted August 15, 2013 Member Report Share Posted August 15, 2013 Thank You for responding. I am familar with the idea of clean installs. I prefer to understand the structure so I can fix problems and customize without breaking things that are working. I had downloaded a number of penpacks and shaders, etc.... and now I have parts and pieces all over the place. Kevin L Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member splinetime Posted August 16, 2013 Member Report Share Posted August 16, 2013 Greetings, I'm double posting this (as a pointer to the original post in "New Users") I am inquiring as to the proper folder topology. I do not know if my extensions are all in the correct spots, if I need to do something in the program or folder structure. I made a "Fresh install vs. extensions added" pdf. Any guidance would be welcome. Folder Outline-extensions Added_3D-CoatV4.pdf Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
