Zbrush polypaint lines dotty and not smooth.
Hi,
I am newish to Zbrush. I have modeled something and am polypainting some thin sketch lines to figure out where I want my shut lines.
For some reason my lines are coming not smooth but rather dotted. On the same model previously they were coming out perfectly thin like pencil stroke on paper. I keep getting this issue on and off for some unexplained reason so I thought I would start this thread to get to the bottom of it.
Facts
1) Model is VERY dense so resolution in not an issue.
2) Dynamesh or non dynamesh model makes no difference.
3) Brush is set to Standard with RGB only selected
4) Stroke- I have tried with freehand and dots.
5) Alpha is off but I have tried with Alpha01 without any luck.
6) Lazy mouse helps slightly but I want it without lazy mouse as it did work fine before.
Last time it was working fine but I reset the brushes and it started working wonky again.
Here I subdivided a sphere 6 times just to test and this is what I get. I just want thin smooth lines and not dots.
Any advice would be welcome.

I had this issue myself and was pulling my hair out for a few hours trying to get smooth lines, I finally identified where the issue was, basically its a graphics card issue, I have both a integrated gfx card as well as a dedicated one in my laptop.
Unless I set zbrush to use the high performance dedicated card I get dotted lines rather than smooth, guessing the integrated cards lack of ram is causing drawing issue. I never had problems, but I think I upgraded my Nvidia drivers recently and must of lost my program graphics preferences I had stored.
Probably why most people find it impossible to replicate the issue.
JohnnyRaptor : I have the issue with lazy on or off. I can still do a lot but it's a pain in the ass. Having to paint slowly in order to get smooth lines instead of dots.
И на русском, если не понятно:
здарова, столкнулась с такой же проблемой. Также внезапно перестала кисть плавно рисовать. Даже при закрытии проги все равно оставалось также. Твое решение - сделать больше места на диске C. Простыми словами - заходишь на своём компе сюда: C:\Users\Public\Documents/ZBrushData/ QuickSave и удаляешь все к чертям.
