Zbrush topology artifacts.

Fwap

Hey guys I'm having some issues with one of my meshes in Zbrush.

I think it happened using projection master, but is only apparent on one side of the mesh.

I'm at a loss trying to fix it, no smoothing attempt works, only worsens it.

I also tried dynamesh, but lost to much detail, unless there is a way to dynamesh a masked area?

Looks like you have polyframe turned on.

Yes, Intentional so you could see the topology in question.

Here is the mesh in max, so you can see why its a problem.

If dynamesh loses detail, increase the resolution and use the project option next to the dynamesh button. If the resolution doesn't seem to work, adjust the size of the mesh.

Alternatively, use a smaller res on a duplicate subtool, subdivide and use project all.

Thanks cryrid, did the trick.

from the original pics, it seems like the problem was overlapping faces, which re-dynameshing would fix by recreating the mesh for you.
