This addon is very good and is exactly how GOB should work by default.

HI
I`m tired to install GoB on my Mac (macOS Catalina; Blender 2.9) and get the error in the attached screenshot - can anyone help. Thank you.
Forget it. It works now. I don’t know why but it does. I just restarted Blender and zBrush.
@LeiLei hi, did you get that error when enabling the addon or when did you get it? and can you tell me what version of GoB you installed?
Hi Kromar
I got the error when enabling the addon. I used “GoB-GoZ-Blender_28”.
I wrote it works now but that is not true. When I try to export from blender to zBrush it does not work. I get the error message shown in the attachment. From zBrush to blender it works.
@LeiLei you have a version that is not compatible with macos, please try the latest master
v3.4.84
https://github.com/JoseConseco/GoB/archive/beta_3_4_84.zip
Thank you. I will try this. I am in the next weeks on holliday so I don’t know when I can test it.
But I will report when I tested it. Thanks again.
Ciao Klaus
Hi Kromar
I installed this version. Import works but export not. Maybe its me how did something wrong. When I klick on the export button a file browser windows pops up an I don’t know why to do with it. the two attachments show the file browser and the settings of GoB. I don’t know if the path to ZBrush is right.
Thanks again for your help.
Hi @LeiLei thanks for reporting that issue, i dont think its something you are doing wrong but because i have not been able to test that part on OSX.
In the file browser you should select the Zbrush executable but it should already have navigated you to the pixologic folder which is has not so might i ask you to post the path or a screenshot with the path that shows if the filebrowser opens?
Also can you try navigating manually to the zbrush executable and show me the path that you get with that? This would help working out the issues you have.
here is how it looks on windows and should look similar on OSX just with a ZBrush.app as executable as far as i know.
Hi Kromar
Thank you for your response.
In the screenshot above you can see what the file browser shows when I click on export. It is the Macintosh HD.
In the Add-on window the ZBrush path ist empty when I install it. When I try to go to ZBrush manually in the Application folder of zBrush 2021.1.1 I can not find the ZBrush.app. See the new screenshot of blender. The second screenshot is how the ZBrush 2021.1. folder looks in finder.
I hope I described it clear. My english is a great disaster.
Ciao
hm ok seems the .app files are not showing, can you try to open the filter options and see if you can select it if you disable the filters? there have been some issues with the filter consistency and maybe i will just to remove them for now.
Edit: you can try to add the ZBrush.app manually to the path in the addon preferences and see if that works if the filtering does not reveal the .app files.
This is the error I get if I manually set a path to the ZBrush.app
If, however, I use the Blender file browser to navigate inside the package contents
and select the app I get this filepath
If I press the Export button using this path a second instance of ZBrush is launched which then crashes immediately with this error
*sorry for all the screengrabs – I can’t think how to describe it in words
