Description

CozyBlanket includes in-app purchases to fully unlock its import/export options and advanced features.
For the best experience, Apple Pencil is recommended, but not required.


## A complete suite for model preparation and optimization

CozyBlanket can perform manual retopology, seam-based UV unwrapping, manual packing, normal maps and vertex colors baking. With CozyBlanket you can take your high poly models and manually prepare them for animation, video games, real-time rendering and surfacing. All with a single app.

With CozyBlanket you can move the technical, manual work of creating 3D assets from your desktop to your iPad. By using a minimal UI and its innovative UX you can perform retopology, uv and baking as an enjoyable, game-like process similar to solving a puzzle, from the comfort of your sofa, on the train or while enjoying a hot chocolate at your favorite cafe.

CozyBlanket was designed to be able to handle high resolution meshes coming from scans and desktop DCCs in mobile devices. Its performance is mostly limited by the iPad available memory.

CozyBlanket allows you to import a high-poly sculpt and export a game-ready asset that looks the same, all without common pipeline issues such as scale mismatches, tangent space errors and snapping artifacts.


## A different approach to retopology, UV and baking

CozyBlanket was designed to be beginner friendly and approachable, but very powerful. You can learn CozyBlanket's fundamentals and start working with it just by seeing it in action. From there, you can start digging into the included instructive tutorial slides and Action Gallery to discover its advanced features.

All tooling was designed to take the most advantage of Apple Pencil and multitouch screens. When doing retopology, you create new quads, patches and grids by directly drawing on the high poly mesh. You can also transform the UV coordinates and texture position by using multitouch over the 3D mesh.

CozyBlanket actions are also coherent between different tasks. Fox example, its Relax action behaves identically when using it for smoothing topology positions, UV coordinates or the baking cage's shape.

## Integrates with desktop software and pipelines

CozyBlanket Standard version supports network functionality, This way it can be integrated with desktop software and pipelines by streaming geometry over the local network. No exporting and transferring files between devices is needed.

CozyBlanket provides a network protocol that can be fully scripted to fit the requirements of your studio pipelines and custom tooling.

Ambitious

Really great concept! Drawing topology and quickly adding or removing parts like you’re scribbling is amazingly intuitive! Being able to also UV unwrap and bake normal maps / vertex colors makes this app and nomadsculpt THE 3d mobile power couple.

Unfortunately though, there are way too many gestures you’ll accidentally do, which interrupts your workflow. Your sculpts better be perfectly symmetrical, otherwise the non-adjustable symmetry tool won’t work. You might need a keyboard since the onscreen shortcuts, as customizable as they are, are crammed into the corner of your screen. As far as I know, every iPad comes with palm rejection, so your device WILL register your attempts to push those corner-cramped shortcuts as your palm unintentionally brushing over your screen and ignore your input. And of course, Steve Jobs be blessed, palm rejection is a permanent feature on the iPad. Not the devs fault but being able to freely move the shortcut menu around would probably help a ton there.

So, the app is novel and can definitely do wonders if you think retopology is as monotonous as I do, but maybe its not worth that much money- hey, at least it’s not a bloody subscription.

Great, but

So, for 100 euros, I expect it to replace my PC workflow fully. And it almost does. It's great to sit anywhere a tackle a task as mundane as re-topology.
But, some apparent features are missing.
-Brush size adjustment
-3 finger tap gesture for redo
-At least two more tool to be added in the left side panel
-Ability to quickly do contour geometry
-Multiselect when using the clone tool, I.e. for finger

I wouldn't be so hard on the criticism if the price were at least half. I still recommend this to all professionals. Hopefully, this app is still in active development and we would love an update soon addressing some of the issues mentioned above.

Very innovative

I love the navigation of this app. It fits perfectly in my mobile sculpting workflow. Very very innovative and intuitive.

I think, the price of 89,99€ is much too expensive. As a mobile retopology application, which would be useful for retopo workflow on the couch or outside, wouldn‘t be my main pipeline. There are a lot cheaper or free tools for Blender for example. Max. 39,99€ would be worth it.
