Wide-ranging improvements can be seen in the workflow of the stand-alone version of MAXON's 3D paint tool in BodyPaint 3D R2.5. Users of 3ds max, LightWave, Maya and Softimage XSI can now create high-end textures for complex models faster and more effectively than ever. Full screen mode and the new Content Browser give users an excellent overview of their projects here as well.
Other workflow improvements borrowed from CINEMA 4D include the Heads-Up Display to view and adjust scene data within the viewport, and a one-touch customizable menu offering access to most application functions.
Importing models from any application is easier than ever with support for n-gons, while users can now apply individual layers and masks from .psd files as textures.
The layer shader allows multiple images, layers, filters and procedurals to be mixed into a single texture, while detachable projection layers make it easy to fit an existing texture over geometry.
>BodyPaint 3d interface
The interface has been designed for maximum workflow and is now based even more on leading 2D applications in order to offer you optimal comfort and efficiency.
All managers are non-modal and have a real-time preview, e.g. for the brush tool’s settings. Numerous interface tools, that already made headlines in CINEMA 4D, can now be found in BodyPaint 3D R2.5 –the new Content Browser, Quick Access menu or the HeadUp Display, for example. This ensures a fast workflow at all times.
