ZBrush 3 woes.
Well, I love ZBrush 3, I was sculpting gleefully away at work. Then I look for ZMapper....NO ZMAPPER!??! I was promised goddamn Zmapper 3! Maybe my other favorite program, ZApplink will have been updated. NOPE! And the new NormalMap tab doesn't seem to be doing anything at all. Way too fuck over my pipeline ZB3!! -
Re: ZBrush 3 woes.
Yeah, I was a little upset when I started using zbrush3 and noticed those features omitted. Going back to the zbrush roadmap I saw this: Look forward to: HD Exporter Geometry into Displacements maps Multi Displacement 3 ZMapper 3 ZAppLink 3 Arbitrary mesh projection & topology. Scripted workflow-based 'smart' UI and Hotkey… -
Re: ZBrush 3 woes.
You were right daz and mop, I was being unfair laying the blame on zb3 like that. Turns out it was my settings (Unify has to be turned off when importing). You win this round pixologic, but ill get you next time! As for obj sizes, they're actualy considerably smaller. I took a mesh made up of 38912 polys and exported it… -

[ QUOTE ] gotta bring the comedy and say : almost feels like this release was rushed [/ QUOTE ] Almost? :P Also note you no longer need to drop to the lowest subd level before saving the tool for smaller file size. It seems to save it that way automatically. I'm hoping there is an update soon to fix the stability issues,… -

Re: ZBrush 3 woes.
Subtools are awesome, but this means if I want to export and import into ZB2 I either have to do so for both the highest and lowest subd level of each tool or export the whole thing, which I dread, with the amount of polys the characters are, we're looking at a file that is a gig. -
Re: ZBrush 3 woes.
Yeah I was gonna say, it's much more likely to be some settings which are set incorrectly than a bug with the whole thing. Try checking your ZBrush OBJ export options, and also your Max import options. -
Re: ZBrush 3 woes.
[ QUOTE ] why is it that any obj it exports cant be above roughly 10,000 polys or it will crash 3dsmax durring import? [/ QUOTE ] You don't think that perhaps its fair to say that thats a Max issue, or something else specific to your personal setup, and not a Zbrush one? I get extremely dense meshes out of Zbrush2 no… -
Re: ZBrush 3 woes.
Yea, sorry for the somewhat bitchy tone of my post there. It's a situation akin to getting a great toy you've been looking forward to, and then not being able to get the batteries to use it until some time in the future. Zmapper is the only option for normal mapping in zbrush, and ZApplink is essential for cleaning up… -
Re: ZBrush 3 woes.
I think someone mentioned both are to be implemented in the not too distant future. Wouldn't know really, new to Zbrush, myself. Sorry to hear it's messing with your workflow, though.
