Can Adobe Photoshop CS4 be used for 3d modeling?

hello, I know Adobe Photoshop Extended can be used for 3d modeling but can just the normal Adobe Photoshop CS4 be used in the same way because i dont feel like buying it for $1000 but I need Photoshop for my 3d models for texturing. So can the normal Photoshop be used the same way as the Extended can and will not make a difference? Thanks
Stephen

I know Adobe Photoshop Extended can be used for 3d modeling
No - it can't do 3d modelling - what it can do is 3D rendering, to some extent. Photoshop CS4 extended only has primitives (cubes, rhombus etc) and these are not editable. So full 3d rendering is not possible. You have to load in models created in other software,
Extended's 3D capabilities are in the process of development - meaning that they decided to INTRODUCE it into CS3 and 4, but its far from the finished article. Both in terms of interface and capabilities. Now the rendering, animation capabilities, and ease of use is better than most people realise - but it sill has efficiency, and design problems, which need to be reassessed. Its more like BETA2 than finished product.

  • Adobe Photoshop CS4 Extended, owned for ages, licensing for this product has expired? Was using it two months ago.

    Hello,
    I have been trying to get Adobe's help for over a month now. I've been on the phone twice to them, opened up three seperate cases and still arrived at no solution. I was bought Photoshop CS4 Extended awhile ago and use it for my studies (I'm an art student). Two months ago my harddrive on my computer failed and I had to have a new laptop. I went to reinstall Photoshop and "Licensing for this product has expired" comes up. I've uninstalled, inreinstalled many times and used Microsoft Fix It Programme for uninstalling to make sure all the files are gone.
    Surfing the forums I learned that there should be a folder with back up and Adobe PCD but I don't have that folder at all. The serial number I use is my original serial number that I know works and adobe have even said it's a technical error. What do I do? College starts again in two weeks and I don't have the programme I use for it!

    Try the License Repair Tool Adobe - Adobe Licensing Repair Tool
    Other suggestions if this doesn't work: Error "Licensing has stopped working" | Windows
    Also if you must uninstall, use the Adobe CS Cleaner tool, not the Microsoft one. Use the CC Cleaner Tool to solve installation problems | CC, CS3-CS6

  • Adobe Photoshop CS4 message: "Licensing for this product has stopped working." I have the serial number but not the media. How do I use the software?

    I recently tried to use Photoshop CS4 that I have on my computer but I get the message:"Licensing for this product has stopped working." I have the serial number but not the media. How can I use this version?

    You can get the installer here: Download CS4 products
    It will install as a fully functional 30 day trial. Entering your serial number will convert it to a permanent version, Standard or Extended, depending on what serial number you purchased.
    If you still have the license problem. get back to me with your OS details and the error code.

  • Can Adobe Drive cs4 be used on a NAS

    ALOHA,
    I use Adobe Prod Prem CS4.  I have also aquired a 4TB network storage device for use with my video media storage.  I'm interested in knowing if I can set up Version Cue to be used on the NAS.  I've had problems thus far trying to connect to  the NAS by trying to connect to the NAS server manually.  I can find the NAS on the network thru Bridge, but thought it might be faster if I can connect adobe drive to it instead.
    Thanks for any help.
    Dandla

    Although I would not place assets, project files, render files, etc  on a NAS due to the slow access, I originally had MY DOCUMENTS mapped to the NAS rather than the system disk as the NAS is a mirrored array.  I found that Premiere sticks the preference files in MY DOCUMENTS.  For some wierd reason, Premiere could find the MY DOCUMENTS on the NAS when writting the preference files out, but couldn't find those preference files on a read.  I had to restore the MY DOCUMENTS mapping back to the system disk to keep Premiere from restoring the default workspace every time I started the program.  As such, I agree that the post that states that Premiere doesn't like NAS drives.

  • Lr 4.1 won't "Edit in Adobe Photoshop CS4" properly

    Hello,
    Using Lr 4.1 w/ Camera RAW 7.1 and Photoshop CS4 11.0.2... When I try to edit a RAW file in Ps as I always have in Lr 3.x (Right click film strip >> Edit In >> Edit in Adobe Photoshop CS4) I get the following message:
    This version of Lightroom may require the Photoshop Camera Raw plug-in version 6.7 for full compatibility.  Please update the Camera Raw plug-in using the update tool available in the Photoshop help menu. [Button options are: Render using Lightroom, Open Anyway, and Cancel.]
    Render using Lr just keeps me in Lr, doesn't open Ps.
    Open Anyway opens Ps, but not the image.
    Using Ps >> help >> updates: says there are no updates.
    But help >> About plug-in >> Camera Raw:  shows it is only Version 5.7.0.213
    Interestingly, if I go back to Lr and hit Edit in Adobe Photoshop CS4 >> "Render using Lr" and then immediately do it again, this time clicking "Open Anyway" it actually DOES open the image in Ps.  I can edit and then when I save it takes a long time to write the TIFF format (several times longer than when previously editing through Lr 3.x),
    Is there a fix for this so I don't need to do multiple steps to edit from Lr to Ps?  And is there a way to update the Camera Raw in Ps from 5.7.0.213 to 6.7 since Ps>>help>>updates doesn't catch it?
    Thanks!
    Mike
    System info from Lr>>system info:

    You are going to have to render using lightroom in order to use the latest ACR updates since you can no longer get ACR updates for PS CS4.  But when you click on Render using LR, it still should open in CS4 I would think.  You might be able to fix this by telling LR that you have another editing program, CS4, and then select it instead of the generic photoshop at the top of the this.  But I would not think that you would have to do this.

    Hey Don,
    This is a pretty straight forward process, in settings on your phone go to general>network>personal hotspot. As SP has said most likely you will have to contact your wireless provider to set it up. I know for at&t you can set up this option through att.com/wireless or dial 611. It will cost you around 45 dollars per month and this gets you the ability to tether up to 4 wireless devices and alots you 4GB per month data. Hope this helps.

    I've heard that it will also cancel your current contract.  That isn't such a huge deal unless your current contract is an unlimited one--you can never get it back.
    Does anyone know for sure?  I've asked AT&T and received a "Yes it will cancel your current contract." and "No, it is a new contract--you keep your old contract if you wish."  I suspect it is the former but it would be good to know for sure before ordering the service.

  • Can I use Adobe Photoshop CS4 Extended on my brand new iMac? I had PS on my old Mac using the student licensing.

    About four years ago, I purchased Adobe Photoshop CS4 Extended while I was in undergrad. I downloaded it to my Mac. Since then, I've purchased a brand new iMac. Can I use this same software? I know it's been four years so the software is very updated, AND my new iMac does NOT have a cd drive. This may all be in vain. I'm just clueless! Thanks!

    Emalexander89 you are welcome to install Photoshop CS4 on your new Mac.  You can download a fresh copy of the installation files at Download CS6 products.

  • Adobe Photoshop CS4/5 Crashes when using the Move Tool

    Hello. I'm here because I'm having an issue with Photoshop.
    I was trying out CS5 when it started to crash every time I tried to use the Move Tool. It was the generic error message: "Adobe Photoshop CS4 has stopped working.
    A problem has caused Adobe Photoshop CS4 to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available."
    Thinking that it was a CS5 issue, I went back to my copy of CS4, only to find the same thing happening there (I also downgraded because CS5 was also crashing at other random times for some reason, but that's an issue for another time).
    This puzzles me because both were working fine before. Granted, I hadn't opened them for a while, but it was a sudden thing.
    My first impulse was to uninstall and reinstall CS4. No luck. So then, I uninstalled all third-party plugins, thinking that might be it. Still, the same problem. I started looking around on Google for solutions and found the instructions on resetting the Tool preferences (I chose to reset the preferences for ALL of the tools). When that didn't work, I tried deleting the preferences file outright, which said instructions recommended. Nothing.
    I should note that Photoshop crashes when using the Move Tool to move an object without ant lines around it, i.e., a layer. I'll move the object, and after two to three seconds, the mentioned error message will appear and Windows will close Photoshop. This, however, only seems to happen after selecting, copying, and pasting part of a large object with some variation of the Marqee Tool (thus making that part a new layer by default) while working at a zoom of 100%. So, in short, working with a large image like <a href=http://www.wallpaper4me.com/images/wallpapers/ergo_proxy_267_1280-862301.jpeg>This</a> at 100% zoom. The image linked is the image that I was using and am currently using to reproduce the problem. It is 1280x1024 pixels. I have tested this with somewhat smaller, yet comparable images too. Same problem. I have never had this problem working with large images before, and I wonder if anyone has any suggestions short of formatting my hard drive.

    Even a decent RAM upgrade is usually only a few hundred dollars nowadays, but it's not a trivially simple process.  That said, with a little research and care you can do it.  Alternatively, you can hire people (e.g., "Geek Squad") to do such an upgrade.
    First, you'll need to know what your operating system capacity is.  For example, a 32 bit Windows system can really only use up to a bit more than 3 GB of RAM, while a 64 bit Windows system can use all the RAM you can find a place to plug in.  What version of Windows are you running?
    Then you'll need to determine what RAM you have installed and what your computer's maximum RAM capacity is - usually you can do this through internet research, either by visiting your computer manufacturer's web site or doing google searches.  There are even RAM manufacturer web sites that will tell you what kind of RAM your computer needs and suggest sources, for example:
    http://www.kingston.com/
    It may be that you can just plug additional chips into currently empty sockets, or it is possible you'll need to replace the RAM chips you have installed in your computer to make room for an upgrade.  Every computer is different.
    If you list your computer model and current RAM that you have installed here, it may be that someone can help with more specific advice.

  • Can't Activate ADOBE PHOTOSHOP CS4 UPG

    Hello,
    I have been using Photoshop ever since version 7 (having switched over from Corel's software, used previously for about 10 years) and had success with it.
    I upgraded to ADOBE CREATIVE SUITE when it became available through the Adobe upgrade option and used that with equal pleasure.
    In 2010 I upgraded to ADOBE PHOTOSHOP CS4, again by means of an upgrade version with no trouble.
    I have switched to a newer, faster computer last week, but I have been unable to re-install my Photoshop CS4 on my new computer because I am not able to activate the program.
    When I tried to install the program it refused to activate based on the serial number of my Creative Suite, stating that it was not a valid serial number for this product.
    I have successfully installed this product in the past, more than once, using that same CS serial number with no problem arising until now.
    I am requesting your assistance to get back to being able to use ADOBE PHOTOSHOP CS4, which after all I did purchase in good faith.
    I am now retired and living on a fixed income which does not allow me the flexibility to purchase replacement software indiscriminately and I really need your help to solve this problem.
    Please advise me of a solution or a workaround so that I can still use my software.
    Thank you very much for your kind assistance.

    it's not clear in your post, but it appears you may own a stand-alone ps version (cs4) and some creative suite version.
    if your ps cs4 is part of a suite, you need to use the suite installation files and suite serial number.  if your ps cs4 is a stand-alone, you need to use the stand-alone ps cs4 installation files and stand-alone serial number.
