question regarding low poly asset creation pipeline / workflow
polycounter lvl 3
firstly, I'm kind of new here and not really sure where this type of thread belongs. so sorry in advance if this is better suited for another forum section.
I have created a high poly dinosaur in zbrush using dynamesh. at this point Im fairly happy with the sculpt but I would like to create a low - mid range poly asset from it.
however, this is where I'm stuck. Im not very familiar with the pipeline used in creating a game res asset. Do i continue on with polypainting, or perhaps create a low poly mesh and unwrap it? or maybe some other step entirely that im missing?
sorry if this is vague. I'm just kind of stuck at this point and would appreciate any advice on what to do next. Thanks in advance!
here a quick zbrush render of said model

After that you create the lowpoly mesh, unwrap its UVs and bake the polypaint (vertex colors) and other maps from the high poly sculpt.
