For Marcus Civis / Plugin new (camera views)

ZScripting Help
#1

Hi Marcus,

No is posible make a plugin camera for a subtool? I explain a little bit. If i made a subtool (like a man), i put the man is one angle, one view i like. I made differentes render with map, light, shader etc… Withe the plugin, i save teh view. I close zbrush. I come back 2 days after… i load the subtool, load the plugin camera, load my view and i ve again the same angle, the same view… the markets are limited and complicaded… i think a plugin like that will be interesting (like my famous and imposible script for symmetry for painting en mode 2d ;))

By Marcus, thanks a lot.

Hi yfchild,

ZAppLink already has this functionality in ZAppLink views. You can store various views (they are labelled ‘Front’, ‘Back’ and so on but they can be whatever you want) and you can save the set to a file for reloading at a different ZBrush session. See the Document>ZApplink Properties submenu.

HTH,

the views of zapplink are 2d mode, not 3d mode i can for example apply a new mat and and new render with the view/angle i choose before when i close zbrush… i mut be do all my render i like with diferent ligts and mat at the same time (i do one and one and one and one fot compose in photoshop…) i can´t stop because if i close zbrush i lost my select view, i can save it and work again one day after… i explain me with my bad english? You understand now?

Hi yfchild,

I’m glad the ZAppLink Views will do what you want. Don’t forget also that if you save a ZBrush Document your materials/lights/render settings will be saved too. (To be sure to save materials make sure your model is drawn on the canvas. When re-opening the document you can quickly clear the canvas once everything has loaded.)

Cheers,
