1.9 The Texture Baking ToolWhen you have the need to bake the Textures you have created for the current Retopo Mesh onto a similar Saved Mesh (having different topology), you can do this with the Texture Baking Tool and Dialog.Just specify…

1.8 The Retopo MenuOf course any good tool has more to it then meets the eye. The retopology tools are no exception. You can find the menu in the top tool bar, under Retopo. Below arelisted all of the functions in this menu.Import retopo me…

1.7 Retopology Groups3D-Coat has a Layer system for retopologizing meshes. This makes it easier to retopologize your meshes with problem areas and to have multiple retopology versions of the same object. Much like all the other Layer tabs …

1.6 CommandsImport: Imports a mesh which you can use as a basis for a new topological arrangement, or to be modified with Retopo tools.Export: This lets you export your retopologized mesh in .OBJ, .LWO, .STL and .PLY formats.Snap: This snap…

1.5 UV ToolsThese tools essentially provide those functions which allow you to mark seams for the “Unwrapping” process:Mark seams: Let’s you mark a discontiguous set of connected edges.Edge loops: Selects and marks contiguous edge loops on…

1.4 Tweak ToolsDelete Polygons: Hover the mouse cursor over a polygon until it highlights and “LeftClick” to delete it.Delete Edges: Hover the mouse cursor over an edge until it highlights and “Left-Click” to delete it.Collapse: Hover the …

1.3 Basic ToolsAdd/split: This tool lets you simply add edges by pointing and clicking in the location you would like to add the edge.Select: This tool has three primary modes, allowing you to select Points, Edges and Polygons.Select Path:…

1.2 General RetopoWorkflows When one needs to create or modify topology, it is usually due to one of the following cases:1. A model exists which already has a topological arrangement that needs to be modified.2. A model exists which has topo…

1.1 Overall Purpose & FunctionThe Retopo Room and the UV Room and its functions are tied together, so that whatever topology is created or edited in the Retopo Room is also reflected in the UV Preview - (which will ultimately become the “pe…
