Mudbox Ideas

PBR ready for game dev with a lot of Materials!, Arnold inside Mudbox for 3D artists.... god that would be a dream! 2 Types of renderers in one package. Mudbox Team, help me smile!

Would be handy to have decent Boolean tools in Mudbox.

jill.ramsay · ‎05-11-2017

We need better tools for automatic retopology in Mudbox.

passariello · ‎05-18-2017

Please ... Meshmixer tools in Mudbox!...

This has been one of the simplest requests that goes way way back. Why have there not been new brushes added and an easy way to port brushes from one version of Mud to another?

I really like Mudbox but it seems theres nothing new coming with the new releases at least not anything significant. But anyways I would like to see a feature that's somewhat similar to Zbrush's Dynamesh. Being able to merge meshes together and to adjust the resolution of your mesh would be huge.

Would like to be able to match Mari's naming convention for UDIMs.

Would be great to have and additional radial symmetry with the possibilty to have several radial simmetry planes actives at the momment of the sculpting. That could be ussefull specialy in the sculpting of hard surface and or mechanical models. Like a tire rim when you like to add 6 holes for the bolts, for example, in a radial way. I tried using Repeat, an circular curve, and Stroke on curve, but is like a guess to find the correct Stamp Spacing and Brush size combination. And not is precise like an radial symmetry could be.

Ability to paint as you sculpt using paint tools and stamps and stencils in different channels and layers.

jill.ramsay · ‎05-12-2017

You should be able to delete multiple paint layers at once, not one at a time. You should be able to shift-select paint layers, or delete an entire channel.

triplanar mapping. must have good controls to controls the edge blend such as noise, custom bitmap input. tiling amount, rotation. look at examples in mari, vray, arnold, substance painter.

Could be really handy to bake a curvature map and use smart masks like Substance Painter to ease the texturing of metallic objects. I can imagine an adjustment slider between the specular and glossines of a layer but I think curvatureand masks should be prioritary

right now, creating joints with symmetry on works great as well as the move pivot tool however, posing does not work with symmetry. This option alone would make this tool way more useful! right now i have to pose one side and flip it..however then you lose the placement of the joints on one side which makes it pointless and i have to remake the joints.

Keeping uvs for Reduced mesh is extremely important. Please have the option to keep border uvs when reducing mesh

A set of tools that help with the cleanup of high-res photogrammetry captures. These meshes can be very dense (30 million tris), they have bad geometry (nonmanifold, t-shapes, holes) and mudbox can't deal with them at the moment. The tools I'd like to see: -hole filling and selection, border selection. -extrude the selected hole/border. -contiguous shell selection. -decimate that works on bad geometry. -retopology that works on bad geometry. -clone tool that works across multiple texture channels (abledo, normal, height, etc). -most importantly: dynamesh from zbrush. -> voxel based remeshing tools are absolutely essential for sculpting software. - marker based alignment for mutiple scans. Recap has a rudimentary version of some of these tools, but it's not competitive in any way with a reality capture/photoscan + zbrush based workflow.

Normal, AO, Dispace use a window really loooooooooonnnnng and similar a toy. I think that is necessari a restyle of UI in different area and preset for 3ds, maya and Softimages (someone use it already?)

It would be very useful to be able to extract only certain UDIM/UVTILE. Instead of waiting for all the tiles to bake, you can select a Range of tiles for example 1011 - 1016 (u1_v2 to u6_v2).

jill.ramsay · ‎05-12-2017

I can't select which UDIM tile I want to send to Photoshop. If I have 100 tiles, it just sends 100 tiles to Photoshop.

JamieLaing · ‎11-25-2017

I use a variety of Autodesk products, and bought a 3DConnexion mouse specifically for Autodesk use. It works wonderfully with one notable exception: Mudbox is terrible at recognizing 3DConnexion input. You folks really need to get this fixed, it shouldn't take long.
