This video demonstrates the New 3DCoat Applink Connection plugin for Blender (2.8), which streamlines the process of transferring assets between the two applications. More specifically, it automatically sets up the materials for the user, so they are ready to start rendering with Blender's Cycles engine or Evee.

NOTE: If you do not see an EXPORT TO/BLENDER option in the 3DCoat File Menu, make sure to first export an object from Blender, to 3DCoat, using the Applink. This should create an entry, if it is not already present.

*THE APPLINK IS GENERALLY UPDATED WITHIN CURRENT OFFICIAL BLENDER VERSION & NEW BETA BUILDS OF BLENDER. Therefore it is not necessary to search for and install an update unless there is a last minute fix to a reported problem (which would be added to subsequent new builds of Blender)

Additionally, if anyone has issues with the Applink, the best recourse is to visit the Blender Applink thread of the 3DCoat forum, so the developer can be made aware of it. If possible, leave a link to a screen…
