Im not sure how many polys you're aiming for, but the current state of the dinosaur in the pic looks a lil too much.
#3d coat autoretopo plus#
plus you don't really have control over where the edge loops are placed. its really only used for really organic stuff, or if you want a really quick retopo for a quick presentation, that you will change in the end, or for like busts of a character.as i can see in your image(sorry im not posting another pic) i see that the toes of the dinosaur don't have geometry, which you can add on in another program but i hate the hassle. Even then there will be quite a bit of clean-up, but it's a great way to get started. For now you just have to do a test to see what poly density is best, then go in and do a proper edgeflow cut pass and run it for a proper pass. It's kinda ghetto and I hope they can refine that, cause it would be a huge help. Sadly, as far as i know, there is no way to save the auto-retopo mid way, or re-run it with the topology cuts you made. Once you run the auto retopo, just cut the mesh along the midline, delete the worse half and reactivate symmetry for further tweaking. In case you dont know ( I didnt ) you can start dragging outside the mesh from top to bottom and release to get a perfect cross section cut that goes all the way around.
#3d coat autoretopo iso#
You need it to be iso to be more or less symmetrical. draw your topology lines across the entire intersection of the dino in an isometric side view, as if you're slicing him like a loaf of bread along his mid section.
I'd recommend turning off symmetry when you're doing the Autoretopo. You can create primitives using the boolean operations add, subtract, intersect, split.Yeah 3d coat is still a bit weird. Added the boolean operations for retopo primitives in Retopo and Modeling room. If the button is red then the script is recording, the blue button indicates that the recording is stopped. The button changes the color depending on the record state. Added the Record Script button in the top menu. You can create the 2D primitives (circle, box, plane, ellipse, N-gon, disk, triangle). Added the new tools for creating 2D primitives for Modeling and Retopo rooms.
You can use the retopo classes for creating the primitives in the Retopo and Modeling room via scripts. Added the support of Modeling and Retopo primitives via Scripts. You can save your actions in a script file, change your primitive parameters in the script and run it again.
#3d coat autoretopo generator#
Added a Script command generator in the primitive tool, Sculpt, and Retopo rooms. New Extrude and Bevel functions allow you to extrude and bevel both edges and faces of your topology letting you add all new volume and detail to your original or imported models. The beginnings of true Polygonal Modeling are also beginning to appear, function by function, within the confines of the Retopo Room. “Circular Loop Arrays” can also be made with a minimum of effort, by means of Freehand Strokes as well. Entire loop networks can be created instantly by using a combination of Through Strokes and Freehand Strokes. The Retopo Tools allow you to construct totally new topology by means of working with individual polygonal vertices, polygon edges, polygon faces and polygon “strips” (rows of connected, polygons).Īll created topology can automatically be set to “Snap” to the nearest Model surface. The settings that are available for each type of work you are performing automatically change in both Panels. Make sure that you also pay close attention to the Options that present themselves in both the “Tool Panel” and the Retopo Top Bar Tool Parameters Panel (the top, horizontal panel below the “Menu” area). The Retopo Menu - which makes available all of the “Import/Export” functions, “Baking” options as well as “Saving” and “Restoring” of your specific Retopolgy work.
