Voxel Sculpting allows you sculpt without any topological constraints and create complex details with existing volume, like clay. You can dynamically change your sculpture, fundamentally, without worrying about topology. This approach gives you an absolute feeling of freedom in sculpting. Feel like a true artist here, don’t think about polygons and structure, just express yourself as an Artist.

Layered Painting like Adobe Photoshop. Create, organize and link paint layers together directly inside 3D-Coat. Link layers, use blending effects and control opacity. Plus much more.

Sync with Adobe Photoshop®™ for painting directly inside of Adobe Photoshop (or almost any other .PSD compliant application). Project your mesh for painting, or paint directly on the UVs in an external application and when finished, sync the changes to the paint layers in 3D-Coat. See the results directly on your mesh.

Per Pixel Painting saves you valuable time when painting low poly game assets. It allows you to create normal maps in real-time directly on your mesh. No need to create a high poly version at all!

PTEX technology is a new “no-UVs” required painting method. You can paint extremely high level details in areas you specify with local resolution. UVs are generated on a per poly basis (dependent on local resolution), and, when your texture work is done will export a single file for use in a PTEX compliant render engine. You can also bake your PTEX created textures to objects with existing UV maps for use in render engines that do not support PTEX.

MicroVertex Paint sculpt details with high poly meshes. This method is similar to what you find in other polygonal sculpting applications, however, the painting tools are the same as Per Pixel mode in that it allows you to paint directly on the mesh but not needing to have a high resolution mesh for those painted details to show up. The color and specular channels are passed on to the texture map directly.

Retopology. With these tools you place polygons, edges and vertices to quickly and easily specify edge flow where you need it. You can sub-divide polygons en masse, create retopology groups (layers) for more advanced techniques or simply to hide part of the retopology mesh to get it out of your way.

Auto-Retopology (AUTOPO) with user defined guides for accurate edge loops and density painting. Create new topology from scratch or adjust existing retopology meshes with the most powerful set of manual retopology tools in the industry. By combining the Auto and Manual retopology tools you can create the mesh you need. The Auto Retopology is fantastic for organic creations.

UV-Mapping has never been so easy! You can create or edit existing UV sets with an intuitive and flexible set of tools. Using various unwrapping methods (LSCM, ABF++ & planar), you can create the UV sets for your specific needs very quickly. Simple select your seams and unwrap your mesh with the click of a button.

Customizable Interface. 3D-Coat has a professional customizable interface. Layout is broken on several separate rooms. Each room has own hotkeys set and dockable panels. You can easily create and store your own layouts.

Render your scenes with antialiasing, depth of field, ambient occlusion, alpha channel, and soft shadows. Make the turntables and share it with the community with easy-to-use “Upload turntable” wizard.

Cross Platform Support. 3D-Coat supports Windows (XP, Vista & Windows 7), Linux (various distros) and Mac OSX.

Nvidia CUDA Acceleration increases the speed of the voxel sculpting experience by 4-7 times, depending on your CUDA supported video card.

3D Connexion 3D Mouse support allows you to navigate a scene with the greatest of ease.

8 Languages are supported (English, Spanish, Japanese, Chinese, French, German, Korean, and Russian).

Community Support is top shelf. Even the developer of 3D-Coat interacts directly with the users. Need help? Head to the 3D-Coat support forum.
