cant use lighting parameters. Where is the problem

using 3d stuff

Dear Egor Chistyakov, Retracing is working now but the problem is now it cannot be used more then one time at the design. I will share to you the screen on preferences > performance.

Rachida, probably no.
According to this page — https://community.adobe.com/t5/illustrator-discussions/best-practices-to-optimize-cpu-usage-when-working-with-3d-in-illustrator/td-p/12480495 — working with 3D requires 32 GB of RAM and A GPU with 4 GB of VRAM. While 2019 MacBook Pro in any configuration has enough VRAM, it usually has 16 GB OF RAM (unless you have a 32 GB variation)...
Can you please open Preferences > Performance and share a screenshot of the dialog?

I have a question, am using a macbook pro 2019 version. I see that the option retracing is not available. Is there another option to use it?

I am having a problem when I want to use the embossed version as a overlay. The effect changes the shape/size of the vector? I could not fix that with any setting

Map art lacks of control. I can't find a right way to place my art along de shape I've created. Previous versions lets place graphics, symbols, along the created shape and play around to find the desired way to make the art. Please add more graphic placement controls for symbols or graphics in 3D shapes.

A separate color option for ambient light section will be helpful.

no vector export makes the feature useless. No isometric also makes it useless.

I need the old expand option fo 3d effects, now it turns it in a pixel object! This is insane, I always made vectors with this tool...

Why is it not suitable for swelling between two objects?

I downloaded 3d substances from the adobe community, "the deadleaves - farshad asbaghi". after importing it into my illustrator it crashed and crashed every time when I open the 3D material and substances panel. After uninstall my Illustrator and reinstall it, the same problem occurs. I have no idea how to clean the caches from the SBSAR files I imported. I'm using OS Sonoma 14.4.1 . I just need to know what to clean the cache or delete the imported files, because I can't find the asset link in any finder, therefore its always in my illustrator no matter how I reinstalled my adobe illustrator.

AI 23 3d lighting and material are horrible. Thank dog I still had AI 22 that works somewhat better. Lighting in 23 unable to change from white. Materials only take when I applied inner glow to the compound shape. Online chat person does not read what is being typed. Why? Why?

When repositioning a graphic as a material, I can't constrain the position to x/y axis by holding shift, e.g., the graphic always gets off axis or rotates. Please provide more precise control over position of graphic

Version 28.5: Rotation 3d does not produce full 3d. Missing light. Diffuse instead.

My feedback:

1) way too slow to work for anything of moderate complexity. Editable type is nearly impossible to work with as a small body even with a good GPU.

2) Gizmo needs to have a re-think. Just open any actual 3D app built in the last 20 years for tips. It gives no feedback. I rotate something, and it looks the same. it should orient itself to the object I'm rotating. Color coding each axis would help too.

3) I rotate on the X axis with the gizmo, but the input fields for Y and Z all update. So this is a local rotation gizmo translating to a global space field input? Not really that helpful for the user. Stick to local or give us the option to toggle local or global space.

4) Add a basic camera match feature. I'm trying to make some editable type going over a 3d render for a client who uses Illustrator. It was rendered in C4D with Octane so recreating it in Illustrator isn't going to happen. If I could just draw a few axis lines and then have it match this would make my task MUCH easier.

Not sure why Adobe can't seem to ever get the 3D basics right. No need to re-invent the wheel, we've got like 30+ years of 3D app knowledge and trial and error to dip into for ideas and solution on things like gizmos and coordinates. It doesn't have to be geeky, but it does need to have some logic to it.

can we have an option to control the intensity of the shadow, also shadow edge softness and transparency

I can't find the Map Art in Illustrator 2024, anyone knows where it is?
Thanks!
