There's barely any information/videos/etc because it isn't (that) widely adopted by professionals like Max and Maya are.Īll of them have their faults. Thanks a lot for your suggestion!ĭont forget you can't draw willies or satan with 3dcoat! But he can't enforce it either so long as you don't put 3Dcoat's name anywhere near your workģD coat for me is a secondary tool, ive tended to go to it for the odd thing here and there like retopology. I didn't know there was a indie version for Modo, just hope that I can still make some money to sell my game after that. Modo I would like to give it a try, but for Maya, eh I tried and I'm used to shortcuts because of Blender and to me it slows me down a lot to select things with a mouse. Rendering it does a good job with cycles, I had some issues with performance when I would use a mirror shading but I can't tell if it's supposed to be like this because it's pretty much the only render engine I ever used, never used like Maya, 3ds max or whatever is popular nowdays. For animations I heard that animators love to use it and I did thought to use it too. UV mapping it seemed to work great, baking textures is a pain, modeling is awesome and it's my favorite thing about Blender, the 3d manipulator can be hard though when using things like screw or bend modifiers and playing with the location, rotation, scale. Texturing there's not a lot of tools to use and had so many problems with it. Like sculpting I have 16 GB of RAM and just for a few hours working on my mesh it slows down because of too much tris when to me is not that much when I look on my screen. Not saying that Blender is total crap, I do really love it a lot, but there's things that needs more work. The game will run on Unreal Engine 4 and I thought that Substance Designer would be a good choice to tweak my textures. So now I'm not as confident and fear to do a mistake to buy it.
KEYSHOT VS MARMOSET SOFTWARE
When I looked on youtube for timelapses or tutorials, or simply renders on google, there's barely something, why? When I go check on forums and do research about the software what people think about it, I don't find anything.
KEYSHOT VS MARMOSET TRIAL
What I had in mind was to buy 3d Coat and Substance Designer, I tried 3d Coat's trial and I do like it so far. I will have around $1800 and I need softwares that won't cost me too much and that will do the job, For texturing, UV mapping, retopology, animation, and modeling. It's my only 3D software I ever used, and I know that there's way better softwares than this one, because Blender is basically a mix of everything but not really good at something, except maybe modeling because of his shortcuts.


I've been learning 3D for 5 years on and off with Blender. In couple of weeks I will do a big project that will last for a year or more, making a game all by myself.
