Re: [zBrush] Maya > zBrush > Maya
So, you need to bake the details from the hi model to the lo model. First, your lo model needs to match the hi model as closely as possible. Try duplicating your Ztool, and on the duplicate delete all the higher levels above the lowest level. Check and see if that lowest level matches your hi. You may need to adjust some… -
Re: Hard Edges, UV Seams, Smoothing Groups, Cages & Baking Trouble.
You're not the first, and certainly won't be the last to lose his mind over normal mapping!! :) Hard edges being split by UV shells is also the right way to go.

Re: How does one create a Trimsheet for procedural Textures?
Believe it or not, I downloaded that GDC presentation months ago and was going to learn the trim technique, but somehow forgot. Your post made me go back to that. So thx.
