after a while of hard pondering: I had to set the name of the “UV_Tex” to “sculptie”.

What does “X is not an active sculptie” mean and how do I rectify it? I can’t bake half of the objects in my scene

(X being any given object that I’m trying to bake)

You must always start out with a mesh that has the right format for a sculptie. This doesn’t necessarily mean using Primstar, but Primstar helps you start with a mesh that will work as a sculptie. You can’t, for example, take any ordinary 3D model and make it into a sculptie. It just doesn’t work.

Great tutorials thanks:)
You always start form the sculpted mesh from primstar and modify it?
Or you can make a mesh and then transform the uv map into a sculpt?

Never mind… it appears to have fixed itself on reboot? Hah, I spoke too soon.

I’m having.. an issue. I understand most of the tutorial, I got the meshes working and everything like that. But when I hit G, S, or R, when I have vertices selected, it will ONLY move/stretch/rotate the entire mesh, and I can’t figure out why. Also, if I have vertices selected, and I DON’T have PEF selected, I can move them with the mouse, but if I do have PEF selected, I can’t move them at all. Nothing I do seems to really make me able to move selections instead of the entire mesh.

(For example, the bit you said about selecting the top edge loop, then hitting S then Zero to close the cylinder? Yeah, it seemed to reduce my entire object to size zero. What the heck, Blender?)

The import thing will always give the sculpty square proportions, because the scale isn’t saved in the sculpt map. If you want to use those parts over, I’d suggest looking at my “Multi-Sculpt” tutorial and append the objects to the new blend file.

Hello.
I am using Jass and I am experiencing this issue:

I have created some parts of a boot ( tacco suola calzare etc) and I d like to use those for future projects. As usual, in EDIT MODE , all vertex selected , I baked the single mesh and saved as tga.

When I try to open again one of this mesh the scaling is not respected ( especially in Y axes) and it seems that the object is a lot “smooted” .

I tried to check the KEEP SCALE option in Bake menu but it didnt work.

Any suggestion? TYVM in advance
