Every merge retopo→paint creates this set. So if you merge objects in the paint room from retopo room, it creates one object, materials that correspond to polygroups, and UV sets that correspond to UV sets in retopo room. – layers exist through all objects and UV sets. They, in general, exist independently on objects. Usually, a UV set contains several materials. – the object is just a set of polygons it is independent of UV sets. You should understand the good organization of objects in 3DCoat (Think the same for Max & Maya). Load Retopology State: Restore the retopology state from a separate file. Save Retopology State: Store the retopology state in a separate file. Relax: Relaxes the Retopo mesh to aid in snapping to the reference surface – for the currently selected Retopo Group.Īpply Triangulation: Triangulation of all visible retopo mesh as an entire.Īpply Quadrangulation: Quadrangulation all visible retopo mesh as an entire. Subdivide: Subdivides the whole mesh, using one iteration, from the current Retopo Group.Ĭatmull-Clark subdivision in retopo room. Two commands are “Subdivide selected” and “Subdivide the whole group”. It is the same command found in the “UV Tools” section of the Tool Panel.Ĭlose holes: A valuable option that attempts to repair holes in imported Retopo meshes – especially dense scanned meshes.Ĭlear mesh: Clears the whole mesh from the selected Retopo Group. Unwrapping will be performed each time when you switch new tool. Auto-unwrap faces that were created nearby to the already unwrapped islands. Set Islands Min Distance: Set Islands Min Distance.Īuto unwrap attached faces: Check this option to create UVs automatically. Working w/ Symmetry (Retopo/UVs): This video continues the Introduction to working with Symmetry, focusing on the Retopo Room and UVs). That way, the “apply symmetry” always works perfectly. Sidenote: To make it always work, you have to select the layer and click the “select all faces of this layer” button. If this mode is turned off, polygons will be automatically created on both sides of the symmetry. Even though things might not look perfectly symmetrical in the editing process, using "Apply symmetry." from the "Retopo" menu should rectify that and produce perfectly mirrored geometry.Īfter you finish, you may “Apply symmetry” to make the symmetrical topology permanent. Virtual mirror should work for you, whether you have deleted half of your model or not. You need only work on one side of the mesh.
The opposite side will be shown as in the mirror without the actual creation of polygons. In this mode, you should create topology only on one side of the symmetry. Virtual mirror mode: This option is applicable only if symmetry is enabled. Select Faces Picking Method: Selects faces based on the following options: Triangles, Quadrangles, N-Gons, and Stars, and Improve Quad Topology.Īpply symmetry to all layers: Makes all symmetrical operations permanent for all Retopo Groups allowing them to be “Baked” into the Paint Room and “Unwrapped” in the UV Room.Īpply symmetry to the current layer: Makes only the selected Retopo Group permanently symmetrically for Merging and Unwrapping. In this case, the objects will be colored color will be used in baking and merging into the scene.Įdit Scene Scale: Edit the scene scale defined when you imported the mesh in Sculpt room and pressed “Yes”. Take Mesh From Paint Room: Move mesh from the Paint room into the Retopo room. Save Contour for laser cutting: Exports the connected boundary of a UV island to facilitate laser or CNC cutting. The name of each generated file will contain the group name. Import: Import an external mesh to continue creating topology started in another 3D modeling program.Įxport: Exports a retopo mesh to continue work in an external 3D application.Įxport selected: Exports only the selected faces of your retopo mesh.Įxport Separated Poly (Retopo) Objects: Exports each Retopo Group as a separate file.
