3D-Coat Overview
3D-Coat is a program that provides all the tools you need to bring your 3D idea to life, from a block of virtual clay to a production-ready, fully textured model, whether organic or hard surface. Today, 3D-Coat is used in teaching at over 200 universities and schools worldwide.
3D-Coat Features
Easy texturing and PBR . Support for micro-vertex painting, pixel painting and Ptex. Physically based rendering (PBR) with HDRL viewport. Smart materials with easy customization. Multi-layer painting. Popular blending modes. Combining layers into groups. Full integration with Photoshop and Blender . Textures up to 16k are supported. Fast calculation of Ambient Occlusion and curve maps (Curvature).
Digital sculpting . Features of voxel (volumetric) sculpting: No topology restrictions. Sculpt as if from clay. Complex Boolean operations. Fast kit-bashing process. Traditional sculpting gives you such powerful features as: Adaptive dynamic tessellation (Live Clay). Dozens of fast and dynamic sculpting brushes. Boolean operations with clear edges.
Exceptional retopology tools . Auto-retopology (AUTOPO) with configurable triangle settings. Fast and easy to learn manual retopology tools.
Possibility to import a reference mesh for retopology. Use your current low-poly mesh as a retopology mesh.
Retopology groups with color palette for easy management.
Fast and easy UV mapping . Professional tools for creating and editing UV sets. Native Global Uniform (GU) unwrapping algorithm.
Support and management of multiple UV sets. Support for ABF, LSCM and Planar unwrapping algorithms. Correction of individual islands.
Finally, it is fast, easy and fun to use.
