ZBrush "Curve Mode" woes.
Hi, im trying to create a repeating pattern over a cylindrical surface using the "Curve Mode" modifier. I seem to be having two problems with this though: 1: I can't seem to find a way to manually move the curve manipulators manually after I have created a stroke (So I want to move the manipulators to wrap around the… -

Curve mode miight not be working with subdivisions? Maybe if you turn on dynamesh? Or experiment with a high poly cylinder, with lower subd's deleted? Radial Symmetry might do the trick for now though, can always save the changes on a layer if you later get curve mode working and want to redo that part. -
Re: ZBrush "Curve Mode" woes.
This is the curve mode: http://www.pixologic.com/docs/index.php/Curve_Mode Basically it allows you to draw a curve stroke on the surface of a mesh and then fill in that stroke with the brush pattern of your choice (similar to the pen stroke tool in Photoshop).

Re: ZBrush "Curve Mode" woes.
Straight-up Radial Sym would be my approach, or a UV-based mask. But for Curve mode, turn lazy mouse off, Curve Bend and Snap on, Curve intensity off, and set the Max Points to however many times you want the pattern to repeat. Using Drag Dot will let you manipulate the curve. You'll have a hard time drawing it out and… -
Re: ZBrush "Curve Mode" woes.
Hi Cryrid, do you know what could be the cause why this Drag Dot method is no longer working in R7? I did exactly the same steps in R6 and R7. In R6 it works like a charm, but in R7 it just draws the first point (using dam standard for example), and that's it. It doesn't draw the stroke along the curve. I'd really… -

Re: ZBrush "Curve Mode" woes.
I'll have a play around with it. Been using morph targets for recovery which seems to work nicely. Cheers mate.
