Curvy 3D Forum

That's really cool and awesome to see that Curvy ports well into Bryce. =D

Thanks, man. Forgot about res and smooth when I did it. Is there way to sort of 'texture bake' using the res and curvy map sliders?

For instance crank up the res, draw, overcompensate by extruding far out with curvy sliders and while lowering the res back down again?

Thanks, man!

Yeah, not too good with the warp tools yet or else the monkey's feet would've been a bit more refined. =D

That's cool. For simple stuff as per suggestion by Phil, I'm leaving separate objects as Children and unmerged as in this picture.

I want that I-Phone game creation studio that's available for Mac. That looks awesome!

Ah, I see. So if I have a creature and want it's eyes a different bump from the rest of it, I can paint the eyes yellow, with bump selected, to define them on the bump (without affecting bump) so that I can work around them in waffle. Also, if I understand what you're saying 'Base' can be chosen as ...

Yes, exactly. You can use it as a template for putting together more complex effects. I often scribble a texture design in 3D, then take it into a 2D program and redraw with bezier shapes, gradients and more textured brushes. My current thing is the bump and figuring out which part of the bump is a...

1.6 made sense but now, having 2.0, I can say that Curvy is a million times more useful with some major and much needed features added.

Especially the quick merge. Now it's like having a Sculptris that has more options and features.

A couple actually One, sending bump to PD. If I only want a certain part of the model to be bumped with a texture from PD, how do I define that on the bump before sending it waffle without making a bump edit to the model? I was hoping to color in the specific area in base color and then mixing base ...

I imagine painting first in Curvy sort of defines what areas are what when you send the map over to waffle so you know where to add the effect if you just want to add it to one area.

Oh, btw I could've done this right there in Curvy but just demonstrating how more complex textures from a more complex 2D art program like Waffle can be sent back and forth with ease. =D

And I'm looking to upgrade both very soon. I'm just pointing this out for those not familiar with the interaction between the two programs, the exchange between both proggies is easier than it looks. The following is pumpkin done within ten minutes but pay close attention to the indentures around th...

The creature is the cover mascot to Douglas Adam's Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy books. =D

With some simple and in-depth explanations this could go over extremely well for 2d savvy artists intimidated by poly modeling and young people whom can't quite grasp poly modeling yet. As for attaching with these types of programs I was playing around with prototypes presented by the Teddy Smooth s...
