Zbrush Array in a circle - Math Question
I am trying to array copies of a mesh in a circle. I can do that fine by finding the COS and SIN but I am running into an issue. Now I am pretty terrible at math and it's been years since I touched trig... so it may be a problem with my math. I need someone smarter than me too look at this. As I increase the number of… -
Re: Zbrush Array in a circle - Math Question
Yea the Max Array is great. I am trying to make something similar in Zbrush. It wont be in real time or nearly as good but I would like to try. Hmm... I am not sure if scale is the issue or not? I am not getting the scale anywhere in the equation? I just want them spaced differently along the same sized circle. I am not… -
Re: Zbrush Array in a circle - Math Question
I'm not great with this stuff either, math was fine and all, but once sin and cos came it, it was game over. Lemme point out, though, that the sphere in question being duplicated is the same size, and you may need to take into account the size of the object to array and if the scale needs to be changed in order to preserve… -
Re: Zbrush Array in a circle - Math Question
ok on closer examination - you just iterate based on the number of steps chosen somehow. If you want to be able to choose 8 iterations over 360 degress - reulting in a ball every 45 degrees (8 balls worth), you need to take 360 divided by the number of steps, and use that angle with your iterator as the offset to the new… -

if you have double the number, they will not really be visible, just bear that in mind! They will overlap perfectly! -

If you didn't need a precise distance, radial sym + insert brush would let you pick the general size of the circle while controlling the scale of the meshes.
