ZCast, did someone notice...

[mouse_art]

That it can be found in the ZScript Palette?

I find that interesting, because since the last featurelist preview, we didn't hear anything about ZCast anymore.

it's for when you break a finger on the brush tool.

I know/knew for what it is(basically), But it seems interesting, because it's not(yet) documented)...It apeared just one time at a old 2.5 featurelist.

What is Zcast?

[SalmonGod]

I noticed, and I'm curious

[marcus_civis]

I think basically it is a live internet broadcast ZBrush session via a special server. Probably only one such broadcast is possible at a time and you'd have to know about it and then 'listen in' - a bit like a Chat session. I expect we'll be told about it in due course.

When I click it it tells me It can't process a server. How does this work exactly?

[Bingo_Jackson]

Its a really cool idea if it ever gets off the ground. Imagine being able to listen in on periodic podcasts from expert Zbrushers right in Zbrush...maybe even with visual feedback. I dont know how exactly its supposed to work, but thats what it sounds like.

you can broadcast yourself with VNC, or VLC

both are free, here is more info, they have lots of "spinoffs" for diffrent purposes.
