can i make a light setup for a matcap material ? seems to be that standers materials are the only materials those get effected by the lights…

what i did was

  1. put the “gray matcap” material on to my model and assigned it
  2. i went to the light menu and make the light color to blue
  3. rendered it [ best render]

but nothing happened :frowning: plezz can somebody help me …thanx

no, you can’t effect matcap (material capture) with lights inside of Zbrush.

If you want to change the matcap to blue you can edit the actual image file that the matcap is being created from. or you can effect the material to give it a blue hue.

hope that helps.

thank you so much for the advice dude…:slight_smile:

actually you can get a somewhat best render to work on matcaps, but it takes having to paste a normal nonmatcap shader into a dual material along with the matcap. theres documentation somewhere about this.
