*** ZBrush 3.5 Release 2 for Windows is now available

[slocik]

Ok, am i the only one to see the big thing ? Its the first and only time pixologic did a fast update, ever. Does this mean they will start to fix stuff more often than once 5 years, or that for some ppl 3,5 was so buggy there was no way to use it ?
Anyway, im really happy to see them react to problems.

Hi, My name is sadicus (sigh) and I'm a PC user. *crowd* Hi sadicus!

I have seen this: ZBrush 3.12 Mac OS X documentation
for some time with no reason to look. ..or so I thought.

Desperate for any new info to read, I downloaded it.

Is this the most current ZB Documentation for PC, and Mac?
...cause it looks like it has 3.5 tools info in it! and i would never have known!

[sadicus]

Wher to save User custom settings for:
Curves
Macros
Materials ( it looks like there are fewer Mat;s ni ZB3.5)
will it be ok to start loading matCaps into the startup Materials?
..ect.
Where are all the materials Located!? they show up alright, but I dont see a list in any of the ZB3.5R2 folders?


I made my own ZCurves - User (from ZB3.5) folder until I heard an official word about it.

cheers!

I would also be curious about some information regarding the Mac release if you're releasing bug fixes for the Windows version. Are there two separate teams working on these versions?

uh hum ok

Does anyone know when the 3DPrint Exporter plugin might be updated for 3.5R2? I really need this plugin for something I'm working on and have to have an STL file to give the printer in the next week or so?

[Intervain]

phew yes! the alt+click works again for centering the model YIPPIE

Every single company could learn something from the way Pixologic is running business! A free upgrade. Not 1 week into the upgrade and their already listening to their user base and changing the way their program works for how the people using it want it to. I can think of one company off hand that doesn't care one way or the other what you think about their products once they have your money...auto something.

Anyway, thanks again guys for all of the hard work.

Great set of updates guys.

Any chance of getting the Move brush alt key behavior returned to the 3.1 variety?

Well, I personally find the ability to move points along a surface very nice. I dont care if the function is on shift or alt. But the function of the Shift key for moving points out from their normals should be more like the old alt move function where you didnt have to initiate a new action each time when you want to move points, you could just hold down the key.

That is really the only difference between the old shift-move brush and alt- move brush. They simply kept the inferior version of the same behavior.

[sadicus]

It could be that we have been recruited into the Pixologic Army.
think about it. You purchase the most innovative 3D sculpting programs invented by a creative mathematical mastermind, then they give current users free updates ever after (at least so far)

They are building an army of loyal followers and preparing a Zarmy that will will be ready for
Z-DAY
...politicians
...zombies
.... weevils of doom
pink pony

or a creative challenge of some kind.

Bingo_Jackson:

All I would need is to have the move brush remember to pull along normal once you have shift held down. In the old version you could move about pulling along normal witout having to keep pressing alt again. Now you have to repeat the keystroke each time. Just a move brush that remembers once you hold down shift to keep pulling the normal each time you touch the surface until you release the shift key.

I haven't been able to activate 3.5 or 3.5R2. I just keep getting the activation failed message. Anyone else having trouble? Any suggestions? I have already read and tried everything from the support site. And I have submitted a support ticket and called support, but I thought I would check here just in case. thanks
