Mudbox 2014 brush not working at small sizes

Stu2Prof

Im trying to do some detailed painting in Maya but when I use a small brush size I cant seem to get a steady stroke. Instead its more a series of circles. Does anyone know a way to increase the refresh rate for the brush in mudbox? I have stamp spacing unchecked.

unchecking stampspaing is no good idea... use a value of one... and try to subdivide the mesh once more...

Stu2Prof

No change Thanks for the help though

oglu

could you post some more infos..?
how does your uvs look like... how big is the texture size...?
how much polygons..? how big is the sample area of the brush...

MM

it just looks like you dont have enough texture resolution for such small details.

either try bigger texture or scale up the UV shell for that area.

regarding spacing like Oglu said already, dont turn off spacing altogether. try 0 spacing or -5 or something below 0.

Changing the spacing to -10 realy helped! Thanks MM! I am only keeping stamp spacing unchecked atm because mudbox 2014 has alot of painting artifacts when stamp spacing is on at low levels
