symmetry problems

[senyac]

Hi , I am new to zbrush and am trying to do the unified skin tutorial , but when I turn
X symmetry on the placement of the new Zspheres are not symmetrical ?
The new zpheres seam to be diagonal to each
other not symmetrical :(
Am I doing something wrong?

Please Help :)

Hi senyac glad to meet you and welcome¡¡
This tutorial by Davey (moderator) could help yourestores symetry by Davey (http://www.pixolator.com/zbc-bin/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=get_topic&f=1&t=007807)

Hi , andreseloy I tried the script you suggested but is says that Its already
symmetrical ? but as you can see on the image the two small red circles of the zsphere tool are diagonal ? its as if the x,y,z axis are diagonal?
I wish I can work this out because it making working symmetrially impossible :(

You may have to start over but try creating the first Zsphere and while pressing down the shift key click outside the sphere.
This should align things how you want them.
Then click x and you should be set.
Set the draw size to 1 before drawing any new zpheres.

If what you are doing is trying to create poles that are on exact opposite sides you should turn on X and Y symmetry. Once finished modeling in this method you can turn off the Y symmetry and move, rotate etc in X symmetry. This is the method I use most often.

Thanks Bluesman :)
This suggestion has worked :)
Thanks heaps :)
This forum is great :)
replies are fast and very helpful :)
I have been using Another 3d modelling package for 4 years ( Animation Master )
But I love what Zbrush can do :)
I just need to get used to the different aproach that Zbrush uses :)
Cheers and thanks again :)
