In short, I'm working on an asset that requires a lot of extrudes from polygons on angles, however I want the extrude to be perfectly horizontal along the x axis and the extrude tool only gives the options "Group" "By Polygon" "Local Normal". I wonder if there was a way to do it by world axis. I know I can delete a face,…
Ok, I've done my research and I've asked people, but the knowledge on how to set up symmetry in Zbrush is still not applicable in every case I run into.

I wanted to buy a ZBrush License, in the US the good prices are about 650USD (from motionmedia.com for example) where locally, here in Germany I would need to pay over 800 Euros, which are about 920USD. I can't find a definitive answer if taxes apply…

I've got some large sandstone cliff faces I'm working on right now that are going to have to tile both directions, but to break up the repetition well enough, they need to be 2:1 (2048x1024). I've been partying with Wrap Mode in Zbrush on some other tileables for this level, but it doesn't want to work properly with…
