How to conform a tileable scales insertmesh to some legs in zbrush using its UVs. Please help

Jarjarniks

Hey peeps. Have been trying for several hours now to accomplish this seemingly simple task.

I just want to copy this damn simple mesh along these legs so that they conform to it. I can't for the life of me figure out how to do it, and I am incredibly frustrated. Please help me.

check nanomesh.

I've tried using nanomesh but to now avail really. When i choose all polygons it doesnt even do it, and all the copys end up intersecting and look crap. Maybe I need to check a tutorial to get it to work. If there's any other ideas please let me know!
