ZBrush is an industry standard, so I assumed that its user experience could be better. So I think about to give it another chance.īut. So I waited months because the new announced version (now 2021) should contain many many improvments. Sometimes I tried to dive into 3DCoat but it happend everytime that I struggle with its UI and 'how the things to be done'. If you end up looking at buying 3DCoat let me know, currently selling much cheaper than here on the website. In the end I'm taking the Substance route for myself - I don't need the other capabilities offered by 3DCoat and don't typically hand paint my models, so I'm actually selling my 3DCoat license. tools that you wouldn't get with Substance.

You get a lot of great modeling, sculpting, retopo, etc. I know you mentioned you are only looking at the painting/UV features, but obviously 3DCoat is the better value proposition. 3DCoat has similar features, but it's going to be a destructive workflow, where Substance is much more non-destructive (maybe someone can share a better workflow for this in 3DCoat). You can apply a layer and then adjust it's mask through sliders for instance. It also does dynamic masking better than 3DCoat. Go search Gumroad or Artstation for 'Substance' or '3DCoat' and you'll see what I mean. are much easier to find for Substance than for 3DCoat. For one, it's a much more popular tool, so tutorials, materials, brushes, masks, etc. However, Substance has a lot of things going for it as well. 3DCoat also has vastly superior UV capabilities - I think currently Substance Painter is only doing Auto-unwrapping which works for some cases but isn't near as flexible as the tools you get from 3DCoat. You have a lot of control over your brushes and the smart materials are really good (though the default library is lacking). It works much more like Photoshop and isn't as confusing in my opinion to just apply some paint. I think for hand-painting your textures, 3DCoat is still the better tool.

File dialog for Windows got better functionality (just become standard). VRML2 export/import for better compatibility with 3d-printers

Several mantis reported problems fixed. Colored specular/emissive export for ptex done too. If ptex scene has multiple objects, it is now possible to export ptx files separately, one ptx file per object. It allows to replace and customize existing tools Now every tool in voxel room may be duplucated or hidden via RMB. Spherical/Cylindrical mapping introduced for masks and materials. Very nice and convenient grids and snapping improvements! Look there -, Primitives functionality and UI improved, now you may choose boolean operation type. Primitives/Models may perform intersection or splitting of objects in scene New principle of pinching introduced - 'Angulator' tool. Lathe tool (one of primitives) -, other example. New major feature (Split&Joints) in 3D-Coat for 3D-printing: It is very important for convenient and predictable sculpting. Many surface brushes got 2 new parameters - Normals sampling and Buildup. Now recent version is in regular downloads.
