Decimation is also used for creating LevelOfDetail (LOD) models. Decimation tools should preserve the model's essential form without degrading texture coordinates or material boundaries. Decimation makes a detailed model easier to load, manipulate, and render in other applications. They may be created via DigitalSculpting or Subdivision Surface Modeling.
To decimate means to reduce the triangle count of a highly-detailed model. Often these tools include 3D painting as well. Usually the details from these models are baked into textures for a lower-resolution in-game model.

These tools are used to create a high-resolution 3D model with a series of painting strokes, using a pressure-sensitive tablet or screen.

Most animation is done in the Main 3D Software Packages, though here are some tools that specialize just in animation. These packages are used mostly for 3D modeling, but they often have additional features as well. Sometimes artists will use specific modeling tools, to speed up their workflow.
Most modeling is done in the Main 3D Software Packages. Please also note that the prices below may be different, if upgrading from already own package. However external packages are often used in conjunction with the main package, since some of the included tools are often not quite as efficient or strong as external specialized packages. These are "complete" 3D packages with a wide variety of art tools. PD: I’d of course will love some of more texture painting features in Blender, but already was able to paint comfortably in the 2d image window, I mean, with certain detail.This category describes software used by artists for game development.

In general, for games, yet today, is better to stay in 1024x1024 textures as much(but mostly for cards bottle necks, your not initially limited in how many you actually use for a character, in ut2003 mods I used one 1024 for just the head… ) …yet today, specially indy engines, not so well prepared for 2048 ones, nor cards of some lower machines if you include that in your users target…which I do.

What I often do is a mix of both, and save multilayered PSDs in both apps ( adobe Ps and dp 3d, could perfectly do with gimp as well(if they’d let me install it)), so that am often switching, with both apps opened at same time, using each method depending on what moment is faster for what.

Of course, thuis if you did a good not-much-distorsion, human readable 2d UVs, which anyway is a must, in games a least, I never do fully 3d painted tetxures, fine detail touches I always do in a 2d aplication, if I didn’t make full proccess in 2d…And I can tell you I freaking well know every corner of Deep Paint 3D, but still, 2d old skool imo is needed at the end for the good work done. The minus for the free version is mainly the restriction to 1024² texturesĮr…tip here…I used long in the past 3d painters, often just for seams, but sometimes for fast texturing characters…you can always :Ī) subdivide in many tetxures per parts, doing a clever uv mapping (hiding seams, etc), as well as good work on seamles tetxures in photoshop (plus good uv scaling etc)ī) Use th e1024 whole template, and then load th eresulting well worked 1024 full texture in Photoshop,gimp,, whatever, scale up highly, and teh fine re-paint it with 2d techniques. Import into Blender with “Object, Group and Material” only selectedĪgain, with some experimentation, I’m sure some of those steps and/or selections can be whittled down -this is just what I ran through real quick. You should now see the cube in the window with the Gimp textureĮxport out of Blacksmith when done as OBJ with Export Maps selected in menu
Right click on the square from the Gimp with the texture and copy and paste it into the clear square. You should now have two squares in the Maps tab, one clear and the other with your texture from Gimp Go to Maps tab (upper right hand corner) and right click on an empty square, hit import and import the textured UV layout from Gimp
Imported the OBJ file into Blacksmith without selecting Import Textures Then saved resulting image as TGAįrom Blender, export the cube as OBJ (with “Selection Only, UV’s and Materials” selected) Loaded the UV layout into Gimp, and applied a texture. Smart Unwrapped (with Selected faces and Stretch to Bound selected) Here’s what I did with the default cube real quick from start to finish: Okay Papasmurf, if I’m following your idea correctly then yes, it is possible.
