Welcome to downloads!

Also, several bugfixes and instability issues was fixed there. Thank to all who have sent bugreports!

Retopo tool progress

Retopo tool is done on 60%

Done:

- adding polygones on surface
- deleting edges/edgr loops between polygones
- tweaking(moving) verts, edges, faces, edge loops &rings
- splitting edge rings
- erasing faces
- adding quads strips (like in Silo)
- connecting vertices on polygon

Should be done:

- splitting single faces/edges
- symmetry
- mesh projection on new surface
- sliding vertices
- move/relax with pen

I think that most complex part was done.

The discussion is there.

New render engine, handlers, retopo

3D-Coat is transferred on new graphic engine.This cross platform engine was done by my friend Sergey Krizhanovsky. It is very important step to make 3DC cross plaform. I hope it will be released for macOS in a month and for Linux in two months. Other benefit of new engine - easy making diggerent handlers. I have inserted them into sculpt tool, it works very cool now! Look at screenshots:

Also you will me able to move/rotate/scale the whole closed poly areas using handlers. Sculpt tool was improved much, now symmetry worksmuch better in select and move mode. It allows you to pose object better.

I have started retopo tool. I think it is important not only because of retopo tool itself but also like improvement to sculpt mode - you will get possibility to sculpt something essential from sphere using pair sculpt/retopo. Another application - making clothes.

Development progress

Last week I was working over making 3D-Coat cross-platform. My friend Sergey Krizhanovsky has made cross platfirm engine and last week I was busy by replacing old graphical engine with new one. It was very hard work, only 5 days was spent to compile and link program with new engine. New engine will give improved speed, OpenGL/DirectX render, very nice handlerd like in Maya. I hope to finish my part of work this week. Then Sergey should make some final changes in 3D-Coat to make it cross platorm. It is possible that Mac version will be done until the end of june (official deadline - 9 of july). So, from next week I will continue to improve functionality. At first, I plan to make retopo tool. Also, I can't wait to start volumetric tools. I was impressed by recent post of Frankie It seems to be more impressive then hard to do feature. You can read interesting thread there.

Do you want to see 3D-Coat on your native language?

Recently I have written about web project that makes possible online translation of 3D-Coat hints on native languages. It is done! So, if you want to see 3D-Coat on your language, please visit the page

It requires login/password from forum. If you want to see more languages, please write me directly. Also, you can ask questions in our forum

Thank you for participation!

MacOS porting progress

3D-Coat 2.09 is done, now next step - combine 3DC with new graphical engine (that is partially used now). With this engine 3DC will support OpenGL/DirectX render and will be cross-platform. It will be big step to make 3DC compartible with MacOS. I hope we will make all in term that I have told in our forum.

3D-Coat 2.09!

3D-Coat 2.09 released! More info is placed there:
