Compatibility problems with old files

PARENT-SUPPORT CHILD-Startup And Compatibility Troubleshooting
#1

Hi there,

I have some old files, made in ZB 3.2 (on Mac), which I want to open in ZB4.0.

ZB4 crashes, if I try this.

Has anyone the same problem?

Thanks for help (if possible)

Wherever possible, ZBrush 4 maintained compatibility with files created in earlier versions. However, in some cases this was not possible – most often with ZSphere models due to the fact that ZSpheres have changed pretty dramatically going into ZBrush 4.

Hi Matthew,

thanks for the fast reply in the accustomed manner.

After a bit messing around, I could solve the problem by myself: ZB 4 crashes immediately, if I want to open a 3.2-model which was saved including texture-, displacement-, and normal maps.

So i had to switch off these features in 3.3, save it again, and it works.

Am I the only one with that prob? Funny

Have a nice weekend!

Stephan
