Mudbox Low Poly Texturing Artifacts.

pietrius

Brush stops painting across edges. Usually I would divide mesh and the problem would be gone, but this time I want to see texture on low poly exactly.

Any ideas? Settings? Uvs are ok I think.

Help!

what version of mudbox? 2016 fixed issues with painting on low poly objects

you can try going to Windows->Preferences and go to the paint section and turn on 'Paint on overlapping UVs'

try a higher brush sample area in the prefs... and subdividing without smooothing or edge creasing...

best would be to upgrade to mud 2016 extension 1.... its doing much better on lowpoly assets...

omg. that little slider does magic. thanks for that! why do they ship a shitty default then? so many complaints about mudbox paint stroke quality from what i've observed. fixed now. it's like a new program all of a sudden.

you wouldn't by any chance have a workaround for jaggy looking paint stencils, too, would you?

give the EXT1 a try they improved the quality for 8bit stamps...
there is also the color tearing fixed...

Thanks a lot, already I see changes with brush sampling size, gonna try extension.
