Any good 3d coat texturing tutorials/training?
polycounter lvl 19
Hey everyone,
One of my coworkers showed me 3d coat this week and I saw a lot of potential for its texturing capabilities. Are there any quality training resources out there for 3d coat in regards to texturing, specifically for a low poly model?

I've been using it professionally for about a year now, a few tips I can give are:
1) install the applink for your preferred 3d app
2) textures > calculate occlusion works great, just turn up the lights & post smoothing to get rid of the faceted look. I typically use 32 lights & 16 post smoothing steps.
3)edit > preferences, click on the brushing tab and turn down your brush sensitivity. I found the brush too sensitive by default and turned it down to .22

I've been trying to find a good tutorial going over how well 3dCoat integrates with Zbrush. Maybe this is possible in zbrush and I have no knowledge of it, but I'd really like to do all my sculpting in zbrush...but polypaint/texture with the ability to have layers and blending modes. I know in 3dCoat you have that ability and it transfers all those layers to PS. If polypainting with layers isnt possible in zbrush, is there a way to carry that sculpt over to 3dCoat and texture/paint there?
It's just a beginner's guide to linked layers
