Changing saturation of polypaint?

DashXero · Oct 2012

Hi guys! Is there a way to change the saturation or brightness of polypainted objects without re-painting them in zbrush?

Thanks for your time!

one way would be to transfer to texture, export to photoshop, desaturate, import, and transfer to polypaint again ?

Not as far as I know. $:\$
edit: yeah if your high poly is UV'd then what JohnnyRaptor said would work.

I see.... Thanks, guys.

btw, you dont need to have it UVed before you polypaint. just do your polypainting, when done, give it a UV map in zbrush. and do the steps above.

Oh! Thanks! It's kinda easy to forget that we can do that!

I think if you filled object with a opacity 1-2% black and then an equal opacity white it would desaturate it slightly, sort of janky way but maybe a faster workaround.

It's been a few years since the last forum post. I'm new to using zbrush...does the new version have anything in it now that allows you to quickly change hue, or the saturation of the polypaint like you can in photoshop? I'm asking because im trying to cut down on the step of having to take a texture map into photoshop and adjust if i can stay in zbrush.
