Answered: Loading ZB 3.5 files.....

Hi have just installed ZB 4 and tried to load my ZB 3.5 sculpts. Problems that arise are:

  1. subtools replaced by boxes

  2. missing layers

  3. wonked layers! (hiding layer bloats out sculpt)

Will this be fixed? Most apps have backwards compatibilty. My view is ZBrush should too!

I have been having a sort of similar problem with older ztl’s with layers saved on them. Even with going back and deleting the layers then back to Z4. All my subtools show up properly. With mine it crashes every time I try to make a texture from my poly paint or try to use t-pose master.

ZBrush is backward compatible, if you have a tool that z4 will not read, please post or email it to us so we can examine the cause of the problem.

As for transferring layers…

Turn off all layers in 3.5, save the tool, load it in Z4 and you’ll have your layers intact.

Thanks for the quick response, So I guess after retop of the head it all works fine now. Strange but in a good way. I Just need to poly paint the head again because I couldn’t get the it to project to the new tool (is there a trick to that?)
