Trouble with sculptris brushes.

Andreas · Jul 2011

Some brushes aren't working for me in Sculptris. Smooth, draw and flatten won't respond no matter what I try. I uninstalled Sculptris, and reinstalled it, nothing.

Its probably something simple :poly142:

like they do nothing at all? where is your detail slider set to?

Andreas · Jul 2011

The detail part of the brushes seem to be working but thats it I have messed with the other two sliders and nothing happens; it looks like the verts are locked to the existing silhouette of the mesh or something...

What alpha version are you using? When you start a new scene with the default sphere does that still happen? Try reinstalling sculptris in a different location(directory). Try opening your sculpt file with a different version like Alpha5 or Alpha6(depending on what ver of sculptris you have) and see if it changes anything. Just a few ideas...

I downloaded alpha 5, and the buttons work as they should. But alpha 6 is still not working, second reinstal now...Hmmmm... when it boots up the sphere is automatically in wireframe mode; maybe I have accidentaly saved some weird settings? Any way to wipe them? Where in the directory would I do that.

Did the buttons work the first time you installed Sculptris alpha6 on your system? Or did at one point after using sculptris they stopped working? The setting-sculpt.dat can be deleted, I think sculptris will make a new one. Delete the setting-global.dat 2. Let me know if it works. BTW are you using a tablet?

You've probably got the brush mask selected without a brush mask. Its a green dot under the empty Brush square.

Told you it would be simple. D'oh I'm a retard. Thanks Calabi

LOL!

hah.

Problem solved

FWIW I had this issue, but a different cause, happen to me during a recent sculpt. Working in some fine detail areas suddenly my brushes would stop doing anything after a crease and or some undo's.

Thankfully restarting sculptris fixed it, but it made me think of this thread.
