Beta Update Version 3.7.08

Changes:
  • Specularity supported in voxel painting.
    Warning! You should re-assign the default shader with RMB click over shaders panel to get it to work. If you still not able to paint specularity - delete MyDocs/3D-CoatV3/Shaders/Custom/ - but preserve important for your shaders. All shaders were rewritten, older ones will not support specularity for vertex painting.
  • 3D-Coat supports import/export of objects that use tiles instead of UV sets - like from Mudbox or Mari. Example: how it works
  • Fixed several problems in pose tool.
  • UI adjustment (even longer menus will fit into screen now) - bit.ly/zAIPas
  • Fixed problem of rectangle/lasso painting without antialiasing in some cases.
  • Fixed several important bugs that are hard to describe...
