Released in late December 2024 as a polished incremental update, 3D-Coat Pro v2024.31 (x64) refines the powerhouse digital sculpting and texturing suite with enhanced photogrammetry integration, advanced boolean tools, and workflow optimizations for seamless 3D model creation and refinement.
Key Highlights
- RealityCapture Photogrammetry Integration – Direct access to Epic’s free RealityCapture for generating 3D models from photos/videos; ideal for quick asset creation in sculpting pipelines.
- Normal Map to Mesh Conversion – Transform PPP scenes or AI-generated normal maps into editable sculpt geometry via Bake > PaintMath to Sculpt for iterative detailing.
- Volumetric Booleans with Shells – Add/subtract/intersect with precise shell offsets for 3D-print-ready parts; right-click SculptTree for easy setup.
- Surface Array Tool – Duplicate objects across surfaces or selected faces in Sculpt room for efficient patterning and hard-surface design.
- RAW Voxels Export/Import – Enhanced with PBR data (color, gloss, metal) support for proprietary engines; the only way to extract full voxel details.
- UI & Workflow Tweaks – Auto-hiding Asset Bar for clutter-free viewports; new plane pick mechanics (RMB hold for surface alignment); FPS monitor added.
- Stability Fixes – Improved Blender AppLink for versions 4.3–5.0; Python 3.11.9 scripting enhancements; reduced crashes in multi-layer scenes.
