Description

Forger is a desktop-class 3D modeling and sculpting application for artists that want to create anywhere. Forger now pairs its award-winning sculpting toolset with the powerful polygonal modeling engine from Maxon’s venerable Cinema 4D desktop application. Forger now offers the best of both worlds in one 3D creation app: sculpting’s organic expressiveness and the exactness of hard-surface, polygonal modeling.

The new Forger includes:

· An intuitive multitouch interface, Apple Pencil support, draw-to-select and on-screen navigation and orientation tools gives artists an intimate, intuitive and powerful way to manifest their ideas as digital 3D creations.

· A full library of polygonal primitives to get started quickly, including: cube, sphere, hemisphere, platonic, cone, pyramid, disc, cylinder, tube, oiltank, capsule, and Torus.

· The full polygonal modeling engine and tools from Maxon’s Cinema 4D desktop solution, including Transform, Extrude, Bevel, Inset, Bridge, Line and Loop Cut and more.

· A desktop-class sculpting workflow and brush engine that offers the power of a Desktop sculpting application, without compromises.

· A large sculpting brush library: standard, clay, flatten, move, pull, smooth, pinch, inflate, crease, scrape, polish, planar, layer, stamp and mask. Each brush has an alternate function that does even more! Even use custom stamps (alphas).

· Professional concept sculpting - With two powerful remeshing algorithms (volume based remeshing and edge-flow topological remeshing), the ability to cap holes, slice, split and merge sub-meshes; doing concept sculpting on a mobile device is no longer a dream.

· Multi-resolution meshes - Increase the resolution of the model by multiplying the number of faces by four, whilst keeping the previous (coarser) version of the mesh as another sub-level. Step back and forth between levels to do big changes or work on details. Rebuild subdivision levels on previously subdivided meshes if importing from another software and carry on with Forger!

· Sculpt layers - Work in a non destructive manner by creating layers per sub-level for quick concepting and adjusting their intensities for different results.

· Advanced stylus & external keyboard support - Users can choose whether they want brushes to be affected by pressure in strength or size. Users that are used to sculpting & texturing softwares will feel at home with keyboard support, allowing them to skip the learning stage of the app due to the very commonshortcuts found in known Desktop 3D digital content creation tools.

· Vertex Colors - Paint your creations with per-vertex colors for presentation purposes, use this to create rough base textures or final stylized ones.

· Bidirectional model sharing between Forger and Maxon's Cinema 4D, winner of a Sci-Tech award from the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Science, offering the ultimate in workflow flexibility.

· File I/O - Save your scenes to the internal scene format and use the other popular file 3D formats to import or export new models or base meshes into your favorite 3D application.

Classic user

The original Forger is a 5 star application. This subscription application is virtually identical to the original classic forger at the moment. I will wait to see if this subscription version introduces new features faster and more regularly than the classic. If this version does earn the worthiness to be a subscription application by introducing new features regularly I will subscribe to it and give it 5 stars. If it is slow in its development, I will ask ‘What was the point of making it a subscription application when the classic forger was a pay once application?’ Is this new owner of forger going to let down the current forger users, or are we about to be surprised with a ‘far better’ forger (that we will rent rather than own).

Needs better walkthroughs.

At first I didn’t know what to do or how to sculpt then I followed all the walkthroughs and I still don’t know what to do or how to sculpt. I did make a square wider then put some lines on the square in the first lesson. I do not know what those lines are or why they would be useful. I did make a lumpy sphere by touching it without a walkthrough guiding me. I do not know how to add a second shape or how to move my lumpy sphere. Again I followed every single walkthrough available to me.
Probably a good program if you already know how to use it or can have YouTube open at all times. I would like better interactive tutorials that actually teach how to use the program.

Great app! I love bugs!

Back when I could actually use this app, it was pretty good. Nowadays, whenever I open the app, a little innocent pop-up prompts me to create an account. “Oh, alrighty” I say, unaware of the pain and suffering that will befall me next. I create an account, do all the steps correctly and confirm my email. I click “done” and the pop-up disappears. All that’s left is to click that one last “Continue” button. Then I can finally go back to sculpting.

I click it. Nothing happens.

I click it again. Nothing happens.

“I think it’s bugged” I say as I close the app and repeat this entire process about 5 times before giving up and deciding to complain on the app store.
