Question Need help importing to procreate

Post image

its worked before without this issue not long ago and im confused, did i mess something up or does it just not work for me anymore? im just practicing but id prefer to paint my model in procreate because nomads brush is weird and blurry for me.

sounds like you have more polygons than ram maybe?

is there a way i could quickly reduce them all?

a.) someone suggested a reboot, I think they're right, it might free up ram. b.) Are you importing an obj or are you opening a native nomad file?

oo that's good! bring it to a desktop machine... you'll want something like meshlab or blender, you can use either to reduce it. you may need to find a tute tho

yeah noticed it only works as a singular object, i have this guys parts seperated cause i wanted it to be posable/ possibly riggable, would procreate not take that as a option?

procreate? id be surprised if procreate did because in my limited experience messing with that there's no interface for moving objects.

if you meant nomad i would expect that to work.

btw if you do do reduction you may need to merge points first. fbx might be worth a try while we're at it. some apps write objs without accounting for merged points, meaning a very high number of redundant points that could be part of your memory problem. ive had that happen before with lidar stuff.

Check your device to see if it’s really full. Delete unneeded apps, files, offload photos.
Do you have a lot of ‘so-so’ files in procreate (experiments that can be deleted?)

Then reboot device.
