Bodypaint 3D software features
With simple settings, artists can use more than 200 tools to paint in real time on the surface of a 3D object - no matter how complex and bizarre the surface is.
Textures can be painted onto 10 material channels using a single stroke, and each channel allows the creation of multiple layers with numerous blending modes and masks.
Using revolutionary RayBrush technology, you can even paint textures directly on the rendered image.
Bodypaint 3D painting tool
1. Restore default view tool - this tool can switch between different views and restore the default view
2. Import software switching tool - If you use a plug-in to import the model directly from 3DS MAX, this tool can switch between the two software and display the change effect instantly
3. Undo the last operation - if the operation is wrong and unsatisfactory, you can use this tool to undo the operation results.
4. Repeat - the function is the same as above, but the operation result is opposite.
5. Cancel the last painting operation - similar to the undo operation, only valid for texture drawing
6. Painting setting guide - a very important function, the first step before drawing textures after importing the model
7. Enable 3D painting mode - the default drawing method
8. Projection drawing - can effectively avoid the deformation of the drawing effect caused by the mismatch of UVW proportions. It is recommended to turn on this function during the mapping stage.
9. Apply the projection drawing effect - you can confirm the projection drawing effect on the texture file
10. Cancel the projection drawing effect——Cancel the projection drawing effect
11. View zoom tool - for scaling the texture map window, it is invalid for the model window
12. Ray tracing brush window - can express the drawing effect more realistically and delicately
13. Area selection tools—including rectangles, circles, free polygons, etc.
14. Magic Wand Selection Tool—Select color values within the set range

Bodypaint 3D Instructions for Use
1. Dark parts are not clearly displayed
bodypaint3d When drawing textures, the color display in the dark parts is very bad, like the effect after using GIF compression. This problem exists in both the standalone versions of bodypaint3d and cinema4d. This is a big obstacle for painting textures, and dark parts can only be "relying on feeling" in many cases. This problem has been bothering me for a long time. I asked several people, but they all said they had no solution, because we still rely more on PS and don’t pay much attention to it.
This time I finally found a solution:
Open "Project Settings" (Ctrl+D), turn off "Linear Workflow", and set "Input Color Properties" to "Disabled", Bingo! Mom no longer has to worry about me drawing textures clearly!
(Note: The above comparison chart is compressed, so the difference is not very obvious. In actual application, the difference is very obvious.)
2. The problem of insensitive pressure sensitivity of the digital tablet
When you first use it, you will feel that it is difficult to control the brush pressure in BP. Basically, the pressure will be full with just one stroke. The solution:
Click the "Brush" tool in the toolbar, and click the small circle in front of "Pressure" in the brush settings. Check "Brush Pressure" in the pop-up "Effect Settings". The curve on the right can fine-tune the brush pressure. The horizontal axis represents the input pressure, and the vertical axis represents the output effect. The curve shown in the figure will reduce the brush pressure. pressure (that is to say, more effort is needed to draw the same effect, but if a certain level of effort is used, the effect of full pressure will be drawn)
3. What should I do if “constant coloring (line)” does not live up to its name?
In bp, draw textures on the model (the more fashionable name is Poly When painting), the most commonly used is the constant shading display mode, which is what we call flat light display, which directly displays the color of the texture itself without any light influence. And we often need to display the wireframe to assist us in painting. At this time, you will select "Constant Coloring (Line)" in the "Display" option of the view, but it will make you a little disappointed, because you will find that the model displays The brightness is still affected by light to a certain extent. Solution: While selecting "Constant Coloring (Line)", not far away from this option, select "Isoparams"!
4. Tips for collaborative photoshop production
The textures drawn in BP often need to be processed in PS. After the processing is completed, how to quickly refresh the texture in BP to the latest texture? There are plug-ins or commands in Maya and Max that can be refreshed, and there is also a simple menu command in BP. You can refresh the texture! That is: file recovery texture!
