Reuben.F Posted December 4, 2014 Report Share Posted December 4, 2014 Hi all, This isn't a thing that i used much but was very handy for use with reactive shading. I've just tried vertex painting a few models in amorphium and imported into EIAS, both models came in with the default gray polygon color, i even tried this with EIAS7 but still the same thing happens, it must be a really long time since i did this because only now i am seeing it not working.

Tomas Egger Posted December 4, 2014 Report Share Posted December 4, 2014 Ola Reuben! Look the manual, you can do vertex painting in EIAS 9.1, you don't need amorphium ;) Thanks Tom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reuben.F Posted December 6, 2014 Author Report Share Posted December 6, 2014 Hi Tomas, I just tried vertex painting in EI9.1, saved and reloaded the model but it still loses the vertex color :( I'm on Windows PC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tomas Egger Posted December 6, 2014 Report Share Posted December 6, 2014 Ola Reuben, Are you sure you following the steps? Thanks Tom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reuben.F Posted December 7, 2014 Author Report Share Posted December 7, 2014 Yes Tomas, i painted the object then convert to vertex color, it does display in the viewport but after saving the model the color is gone, maybe a problem with the importer?

Tomas Egger Posted December 7, 2014 Report Share Posted December 7, 2014 Ola Reuben! Click in the diffuse tab and check the box to show the original color. Thanks Tom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reuben.F Posted December 7, 2014 Author Report Share Posted December 7, 2014 Hi Tomas, I will try the whole process again, i'm sure i had the correct material setting but i will try again. Reuben Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reuben.F Posted December 7, 2014 Author Report Share Posted December 7, 2014 Just an update Tomas, I've followed the tutorial video by Ian Waters and tried to get this to work using the colorphium plugin, its still not working with EIAS v9 or v7!! so unless i'm missing something really obvious.. But i noticed one thing from the video, the color blend checkbox! on Windows v7 the box is unchecked and grayed out and on v9 the checkbox is selected but also grayed out! On Ians Mac its working!

yhloon Posted December 8, 2014 Report Share Posted December 8, 2014 Hi Reuben, I don't have EI9 yet, but there is a plugin call colorphium, which works nicely in EI8, I hope it works on EI9 as well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reuben.F Posted December 11, 2014 Author Report Share Posted December 11, 2014 Hi Loon, I the problem is the same with the colorphium plugin, it seems to be the color blending is not working or vertex color is not being saved on fact export, or maybe being lost on import.

Reuben.F Posted December 12, 2014 Author Report Share Posted December 12, 2014 Update: I've just got this to work without the plugin in v9.1 but only on ubershapes, trying to find the problem.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yhloon Posted December 13, 2014 Report Share Posted December 13, 2014 Hi Reuben, I'm still using windows PC, i just did a test on the colorphium in EI8, it seems everything is works for me, here are the download link https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/6687586/EIAS/ForumShare/ColorPhiumTest.zip Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reuben.F Posted December 13, 2014 Author Report Share Posted December 13, 2014 Hi Loon, thanks I will look at that later, I can still only get this to work with uber shape not imported models. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AVTPro Posted December 14, 2014 Report Share Posted December 14, 2014 I'm curious to know if this will work with PolyPainting in Zbrush. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
