Yes there are only 2 uv maps. Will need to look closer at the maps first!
Thanks!

I created some work in blender. when i transfer it complete or in parts to 3d coat some
parts show as a default 3D cube in 3d coat instead of the shape i gave it.
Looks like a bug, if i import the OBJ file direct into 3d coat it looks fine.

[haikalle]

Hi CoatFly. Could you share the .blend file that I could take a look what happening there.

I think this applink is very useful.
Mostly I am using this for modeling and UV.
If I can import/export a model without changing vertex order, that would be perfect.
Because our workflow does not allow changing vertex order.

tested just with 2.63.
imported a book, but after import in 3dcoat the book is stretched in z-axis

left: how it looks like in 3dcoat
right: how it looks like in blender

same there with official blender 2.62

I can confirm using Blender 2.63a

[chingchong]

had also an issue when painting on that streched book and trying to reimport in Blender. I clicked on update in Blender, but there only apeared an additional sphere out of nowhere , but i will test it again when im back home.

(Am i supposed to click on 'export to blender' first for reimporting? I thought the update button should be the way, when you coming from blender.
Additional info: As i said, i tried this with same issue in V2.62, but the book was modeled in V2.63)

[JimB]

In Blender I set "3D Coat Applink" to "Mesh as Voxel Object" and lmb on "Transfer" with 3DCoat running.

chingchong, I updated the script. It should work but needs a little more testing before committing it into blender trunk.
But here is 7z file for you. If you can test it that would be great

If you take an object from blender into 3d-coat use only File -> open in orginal app option. When you take an object from 3d-coat into blender then use export to -> blender.

had also an issue when painting on that streched book and trying to reimport in Blender. I clicked on update in Blender, but there only apeared an additional sphere out of nowhere , but i will test it again when im back home.

I'm also able to see it but I have no luck to repeat it. If you have steps how to see this bug that would be great.

[chingchong]

thanks Haikalle i will test it,

i tried to install the script you have put in the archive, but i have same issue.
In fact i dont really know if it is the new version --> 3.5.20 ?


Is your applink also for 64bit?, because thats what i'm using

[chingchong]

update. ah i copied manually your file into the addon folder and now it worked, though the Version number of the script didnt change

[haikalle]

Good to know it worked. I will do some other code changes before changing the version number. Need to find why sometimes it creates unwanted object
into scene...

[chingchong]

me again,
( i watched your manual-vid to confirm that i do the right steps.
but i cannot see the textured model in Blender?

What i did e.g.:
cube in blender --> transfer for per pixel painting to 3d coat --> paint some simple patterns--> open in original app --> switch to Blender an clicked update
but there isnt any texture that i can see, even within the texture bar is nothing

plus when clicking twice on update there is an error-message
(texture view is enabled)

tried this with 2.62 and 2.63 )

EDIT: do i have do create an UV before a transfer to 3dCoat? Because with that UV-Sphere it works.

It should work with uv or without. Can you send the blend file again so I can take a look...it works in my tests...

nevermind, in two tests this early morning it worked all perfectly.... all maps are displayed now in the texture tool bar, too

Dont know whats the difference to tomorrow... or maybe im somehow dumb

[haikalle]

Glad to hear that. There is some stability issues with the script so I need to work to fix them. Thanks for your help too. One
very big bug was fixed because of your report.

[3DArtist]

haikalle, have you thought more about adding vertex color support?
