Hey there,
I am looking at using polypaint layers as density maps in Vue for ecosystems.  I was wondering if anyone know how to export JUST the polypainted layer from ZBrush and not see the UV layout with the polypaint layer?  
I thought I could do it by making the 'Colorize' be a black colour instead and then paint white, this way when I exported the textures its a black UV layout with a black background and I would only see the white polypaint.
Basically, all I want to do is see the area I painted so I can use that as a density map.
I go through the whole process :--
3ds max base
ZBrush sculpt
colorize
paint
Unwrap in ZB
new texture map from polypaint
clone
flip
export.

All I want though is what I did in the paint layer.. basically white on solid black.  Is this possible.

Thanks heaps for any assistance with this.
