Zbrush Surface Noise Inflating Tool

STEVONATRON

Hi , I've run into this problem a couple times now... What happens is that I'll build surface noise which looks great until I apply it to the mesh. The whole thing either inflates or deflates beyond recognition.

I get the impression it is a glitch because it's quite random. But when I go back into the editor and change some values, it alters the distortion but I can't remedy it.

The mesh has no layers, no multiple subdivision levels, etc.

Has anyone else experienced this?

Try applying the noise to a new layer, or save a morph target first. Then if it winds up being too strong once converted to actual geometry, you can dial down the intensity of the layer/morph

Ah excellent, that works. Thanks Cryrid! Much appreciated.
