Improve crease brush

cid_carlos

Compared to nomad or zbrush the Crease brush could be improved. Maybe it could pinch more in the middle of the stroke?

Seeing the screenshot and testing it now, I can say that there seems to be some weird stepping that isn't expected, I will check.

As for whether it should pinch more or push more, the only thing I can say is that I could expose the internal pinch multiplier so everyone can set it to their liking 😉, sometimes it's hard to find something that works for everyone.

Awesome! And I mentioned the pinch without really knowing if that would help or not so must likely you don’t need to expose the parameter. Thanks Javier

cid_carlos A new version should be out in the next couple of days that corrects this odd behavior. (v1.7.16)

There are now separate multipliers for pinch/push strengths on the brush so this is user adjustable, the internal values have been adjusted too so the default behavior "feels right".

(To to back to the previous behavior set the pinch multiplier to 2.0 and the push multiplier to 0.5, this will make it behave as it did, but with the visible stepping corrected)

cid_carlos this is out now 🙂

It works much better, thanks Javier!
My only other suggestion would be to take an other look at the Smooth Stroke and Spacing options. No matter what I try I can’t get a continuos stroke.

Hi cid_carlos ! sorry for the delay, yes about the smooth stroke, I would like to spend a bit of time on it as there is something odd at play, it's as if it had more stepping than when not in use (in a way it seems to be doing the opposite, not quite, but similar)

Some things have come up that I have to look at first but this is on my list of things to revisit (hopefully) soon. 😉
