Am I likely to have a bad time with 16gb RAM?

3 Upvotes

I've recently downloaded the free trial of 3dCoat. From what I've seen others do with it I am seriously considering purchasing a license but I'm concerned that my current RAM isn't really going to cut it. I want software for high density character meshes that I will then use in Blender. Some people say that 3dCoat's voxel sculpting works more efficiently than Blender for very detailed sculpts but does it require more than 16gb RAM to work smoothly?

Question 3d Coat and Marvelous Designer

• Upvotes

I'm just curious if anyone around here uses 3d Coat with Marvelous Designer. Not a very important question, I am going to just download the trial in a few days anyway.

I am mostly looking for something to replace Substance Painter in my workflow because Adobe annoys me. Would also be nice to have a Zbrush alternative for the few times I need to sculpt. I was loyal to Zbrush for years but the Maxon screwed everything up.

Just wanted to know if anyone had anything to say about using 3d Coat to doing materials and details on clothing I made in Marvelous Designer. Are there a good amount of cloth options available or tools available for doing stitching and the like?

Question Mesh borders don't fill with colour

Hello bought 3d coat textura yesterday

loaded a mesh in and I'm trying to paint, but the borders don't want to fill with colour and keep a white line around them.

I have changed realtime padding mode to naive padding with the width down to 5 all the way up to 500 and nothing seems to change at all

Am I doing something wrong?
