I love Pablo but he does have some of the worst takes at times. ---

Speaking categorically. Dyntopo is and remains in previous versions. You can sit there, but, I emphasize, but without new features. Would you agree to that…? I mean, or dyntopo or new functions. I can see it that way. Pablo do double work when it starts adding new functions.Because of the dirty hack in code Dyntopo. ---

Oh yeah, thanks for sharing! Below FUTURE paragraph one can find Texture Mesh Filter section and that’s exactly what I would envison. That’s the video clip from linked article.

I hope @pablodp606 will add some slider to pinpoint a precise value you’ll apply on other subjects, since moving around the mouse it’s faster yet it become clumsy at some point. ---

This has long been a problem for rendering toon shaded characters. It’s usually faster to add the custom normals to the mesh before subsurf is added, but you lose them afterward. I’m glad to see it’s finally being fixed. ---

That is a little bit weird. Stroke method is Space method. But user has to anticipate Simulation limit. If it was possible to have a dynamic Simulation limit working with Anchored method, that would be more intuitive. Falloff of Cloth brush is a sphere. That means that Simulation limit is radius of a sphere. If you do a stroke longer than Simulation limit, you reveal perfectly circular Simulation Limit. If that frustrates you, you will increase Simulation limit to be as wide as area you want to treat. Issue is that area will not be a surface, but a volume. Front Faces Only can help a little bit. But if you want to limit effect to surface you see, you have to do only short strokes or make an intense use of mask. I think it will be interesting to try to limit volume of simulation by using a sculpt plane. ---

Not sure if this is the place for this, but I’m using dynamic paint and a heavily damped wave modifier to make a sphere push an indented path along a desert, and a thought occurred - what if there was a sculpt brush modifier, or the dynamic paint modifier had a ‘sculpt’ option? Basically, you’d be able to animate an object to act as the brush, and it would sculpt the surface. ---

Actually, Dynamic Paint can displace surface. After Particle nodes done, modifiers will become nodes. Pablo has also announced that Brush behavior will also be defined by nodes. That should be possible in several years. ---

> [@julperado](#): > > Did you use dyntopo with constant detail there…? It appears so, because the detail where the alpha was applied looks too big for 98K polygons.

That way, you can set a detail percentage relative to texture details and you will obtain same desired result whatever brush radius is. > > Whatever Refine method is used ; increasing a little bit Sample Bias when using texture can help, too.
