High Poly Model to Low Poly

[chayanvinayak]

hi ,

Challenge : To convert very detailed high poly model developed in Z brush with 1.32 Million points .

1 .This model is not imported into Maya becuase maya can not afford that big model.
2 . There is no Lower Sub division available for this model
3 . Reconstruct subdivision does nothing/ has no effect on model

Now how can you convert this model into low res model to get its workig in Maya

[cannedmushrooms]

can you post the model?

or watch
http://www.houseoftutorials.net/noli...econstruct.wmv
might help you out

Few things to try also
1. Enable UVS somtimes they disable
2. Clear masks
3. Zbrush 3 primitives are evil. (watch video for details)

One other potential solution if you've got Zbrush2 is to take the model
in there and try to reconstruct. I had a model that Z3 didn't want to
reconstruct, but Z2 did.

good luck!

Re-topologize it with ZB's Retopo tools.
