Mudbox is painting onto wireframe...?

odium

Very odd issue I've just ran into. I reimported new UV's from the new low poly, which matched the lowest subdivision in Max in all ways except it was unwrapped much cleaner. However, now when I paint the model in Mudbox, I get this odd wireframe issue showing up on the mesh...?



This is more than likely a simple duh moment, I'm sure. But I can't quite put my finger on it. Any ideas?

UPDATE: Ahh, if I turn edge bleeding all the way down in the Paint preferences, the wireframe on there is tiny, looks almost like zFighting, however it doesn't show up on the final texture when I render it. So thats no biggie. nothing to see here folks, move along!

EDIT: Scratch that, when I save the texture it looks like this... Now I'm totally stumped, might just do it all by hand...

are the uvs weldet? looks like each face is a shell...

odium

Yeah the UV's are welded, was one smoothing group etc. Very odd.

Try exporting then reimporting the base model.

Do you have the file ? I can give it a look - who knows, maybe its hardware/videocard related ?

odium

Sure, I can up the file, give me a tickle.

EDIT: OK here it is, I deleted the top few sub-d levels because it was only adding to file size and wasn't really needed, plus when I paint on this I still get the exact same issue anyway so it was redundant:

Very odd, they were before. But I managed to get it working just now by simply re-doing it, wasn't exactly a big job it was only a farty little misc thing anyway. Cheers guys.
