Advanced Member polyxo Posted March 22, 2011 Advanced Member Report Share Posted March 22, 2011 1) Option to increase resolution locally but limited to just one Texture-Map. The user currently has no control whether or not additional Maps get created. 2) Automatic optimization of Ptex-Map distribution at export-time. Often times half empty maps get stored, that makes no sense! 3) please give clear feedback in the Ptex-Options-Editor (where on changes resolution). We need something like a progress bar of some indicator that the operation has finished. 4) Also for PTEX it would be good when we got the option to define different Freeze areas or better some kind of indicator-Colour-Painting to signify separate Ptex-Maps/zones of different density. Zbrush for creating Polygroups - I believe one could adapt this for Ptex (from Minute 2.30 on).Alternatively (and surely quicker to implement) it should also be possible to create those Polygroups inside the UV-Room by marking Edges. Also imported Polygroups which appear in 3DCoat's Object-Stack (e.g. when coming in with the new Zbrush-Applink) should be recognized by PTex and optionally allow for separate Textures per Polygroup(or Object as called by 3DC). See attached image. The feet of the Rhino are separate Polygroups but Ptex does not care. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Advanced Member herve_bis Posted March 22, 2011 Advanced Member Report Share Posted March 22, 2011 I really agree on number 1 and 2... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member robotbob Posted March 24, 2011 Member Report Share Posted March 24, 2011 yes. 2 is the biggest for me. it simply must be fixed for it to be useful, but i heartily agree with the other points also. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Applink Developer haikalle Posted March 26, 2011 Applink Developer Report Share Posted March 26, 2011 Agree everything you said polyxo. We should write nice mantis feature request for this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Advanced Member polyxo Posted March 26, 2011 Author Advanced Member Report Share Posted March 26, 2011 Good to hear that I am not alone! @Haikallle - is rephrasing these Wishes in Mantis really required? I thought this here was the wishlist... If Mantis now is the official (and only) way to add requests one should better close this Sub-Forum and just leave a Link to Mantis.

Applink Developer haikalle Posted April 27, 2011 Applink Developer Report Share Posted April 27, 2011 Vray 2.0 is supporting Ptex textures and I would love to do some tests, but When I "merge into Ptex" using 512x512 texture size I get 19 Uv sets. Little too much Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
