#Krita brushes 4.1.7 manual#

What are Brush settings? Depth? Falloff? Remove Stretching? or something else? Which brush was used? Draw, Gum or some LiveClay Brush? What scale of the cube did you redimension? Please could you share the settings you made to get the alpha result of the image? When I choose the Edit the 16-Bit TIF option, Gimp opens automatically, and an alert message appears with the empty alpha (dark square) as the image above I posted? This is normal? Because I can not do anything with this option because of the error that appears to me. Does this mean that even though it is 16-bit in Tif format, will 3D-Coat automatically convert alpha to 8 bits when importing into 3D-Coat? Editor option, it automatically opens Gimp 2.10.8 and when I check the bits it has, Gimp shows me that they are 8-bits and not more 16-bits. I did not really know that it mattered the scale of the geometry within Surface Mode in 3D-Coat.Ĭan you tell me about when you import a 16-bit TIF alpha into 3D-Coat, will this alpha remain 16 bits? Because when I choose the Edit Ext. To be honest with you, I've never bothered to scale the size of a geometry within ZBrush, because regardless of the size of the geometry the quality of Alphas in the carving and detailing will always be good. I thought that in Surface mode the size of the geometry would not influence the quality of Alphas and Stencils within 3D-Coat. Thank you for alerting me about the scale or size of the cube in 3D-Coat. I exported this same cube to Obj and imported into 3D-Coat. The cube as I told was made in ZBrush, subdivided into 5 times and as a result 500,000 polygons (within Zbrush) and 1 million within 3D-Coat (the same cube imported). Hi again for the return and for doing the test with the Cube that I attached. This topic may also help many other users in the future. This is very important because I would like to detail my characters with quality through Alphas and Stencils. Sorry for anything, but please, if possible, could you answer the 4 questions above? And this way, by creating the alpha automatically for the user. For users it is very practical and easy to create a new alpha or texture without worrying about anything because the programs already create for the user alpha automatically.ģD-Coat gives me this option to automatically create a new alpha by opening a new texture or dragging that texture from the folder (windows explorer) into 3D-Coat, giving me the option to choose Create a New Alpha. I'm used to dealing with alpha in Krita / Gimp / Photoshop (making adjustments and turning to gray) and then importing for example programs like ZBrush (when I used only ZBrush) or Blender. In my opinion the process of creating a new alpha (Color, Height / Depth, Glossiness & Erase Mask) is a bit confusing and I need to adapt to that. I always try to look for answers to my questions or possible errors before creating a new topic that could be a duplicate of another topic.

#Krita brushes 4.1.7 manual#

Thank you very much for replying and giving me the manual link. Please, I would like to know what I could do to actually have a 16-bit alpha inside 3D-Coat? I have already tested on Gimp 2.10.8, Krita 4.1.7, Photoshop CS2 and it always happens the same thing. Editor', I realize that the alpha is no longer 16 bits and yes 8 bits in the external editor.Īnd when I choose the 'Edit the 16-bit Tif' option a reading error occurs and instead of the alpha appears (no alpha) a dark square. I believe there is an error or bug happening in 3D-Coat when I right-click the alpha, a menu appears with options, when I choose 'edit in Ext. The result of this alpha in ZBrush is better than the result made within 3D-Coat as you can see in the image.ĭoes importing the alpha (even if in tif) into 3D-Coat, will the program automatically convert the 16-bit alpha into 8-Bits? I can not understand this difference that is happening in the picture. I used the same alpha in ZBrush and 3D-Coat. So I created a cube of 500,000 polygons inside the Zbrush and exported the obj. Remembering that I saved this alpha in Tif format. I wish I could use a 16-bit alpha in 3D-Coat.īefore importing the 16bits alpha to 3D-Coat, I checked it and it really is 16 bits.
