Game Asset Pipeline : 3D-Coat Auto Retopology

[@yaizasanchez8757]

Two years later and u saved my grades on an exam! Thx for the video

[@jixi]

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

[@JayAnAm]

Thx, I will put this to my list

[@lopadonk]

Good tutorial thank! Need 2.8 retopo tutorial.

[@LaxmikantMeenaconnectorg]

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

[@TheJobCompany]

Hey, that's pretty nice and convenient!

[@JayAnAm]

Thx m8

[@Staglaitor]

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?

3DCoat - Cool program

[@JayAnAm]

Yep!

As always -quallity content.

3d coat might be the goat

[@pando5409]

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! :)

[@hachemihadjallah2032]

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]

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

[@hachemihadjallah2032]

@@JayAnAm Thanks dude

[@lehfeldt1]

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

[@alicewithalex]

Nice, can you teach baking normal good without any artifacts?

[@JayAnAm]

We will do this in the next one.

But, you are a mot***Fucking GOD! I just click on like button 100000000000000000 times

[@JaySamurai79]

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]

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

[@darkknight4353]

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

[@Xperto_]

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]

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).

[@Xperto_]

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

[@szaibot]

Why not use 3d-coat for baking?

[@vazak11]

Cool!

[@incridablekarthi228]

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]

* 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

[@incridablekarthi228]

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

[@JayAnAm]

ok, great!

[@JKnight]

thanks :)

[@JayAnAm]

You're welcome

[@runsbuns3675]

downloading this to compare the feature to zremesher

[@eduardoabreu231]

Hey, awesome video! Do you prefer doing retopology in blender or 3d coat for complex things?

[@JayAnAm]

I really find them both great. For this video I did 3D-Coat because I did quite a few for Blender already.

[@eduardoabreu231]

Thanks!

[@nushia7192]

Is it free? or paid? if it is buy to use, how much is it? I might need it later for some future 3d modeling. Please!! I need some replies!!

[@CouchFerretmakesGames]

If you want to use it commercially then its $379. Otherwise there's an Amateur limited version for 99$.

[@ApexArtistX]

Why not use decimate

[@krypto61]

Folder 'Projekte'; are you german? :S

[@JayAnAm]

Yes, I am.

[@krypto61]

Gut zu wissen, ich dachte die ganze Zeit an Brite :D

[@JayAnAm]

:-) ok, dann hat sich mein Englisch ja doch verbessert, danke.

[@Daniel-nn8oy]

I use a free software named instant meshes

[@JayAnAm]

Yes I know it, different, but good algorithm

The interface of this program is such a mess...
