GoZ and Modo 601 seems to be broken

Is GoZ working with modo 601? When I try to GoZ from ZBrush to modo the script hangs (I have to eventually force quit it) & the viewport in modo just moves around strangely. There is also no GoZ button appearing in modo (although it is there under ‘Pixology’ in the form editor).

I’ve tried force re-installing with ZB, Updating Paths, manually installing the plugin downloaded from Pixologic, etc.

Mac OSX 10.6.8
Modo 601
ZBrush 4R3

Im pretty sure GoZ isnt supported for 601 yet. It took some months before GoZ was available when 501 was released.

Ah, OK. Thanks Henning.

I’ll use 501 for GoZ’ing in the mean time. I can always copy stuff into 601 afterwards.

Same behaviour here. ZB4R3 does not tango with Modo 601 :cry:

Yep, definitely not working for me either. modo 601, ZBrush 4R3, OSX 10.6.7, MacBook Pro 15” Quad core 2.3GHz i7, 16GB of Ram.

I hope we can expect this to be fixed real soon. Any word on that for Pix? Marcus??

It’s a shame GoZ has such a questionable history. It’s such a useful concept, but I’ve never found it to be consistently reliable.

I’m new to Modo 601 and the GOZ does not work for me either.

There seems to be a problem saving the ztool on export, it cannot create the required file on the C:\ drive indicating a write protect error. This seems wrong as I am the administrator and have priviliges and have installed Z4R3 and Modo in the default locations. Modo will initialise and paths are correct as Modo will startup, but nothing is there!!

Should I manually create a Modo 601 folder for 64bit with a copy of the 501 64bit .lx file? There seem to be 4 folders 401, 501 with 32bit and 64 bit respective in the C:\Users\Public\Pixologic\GoZApps|Modo heirarchy.

My first ever post, love Zbrush though, best software ever!!!

I contacted Support and they said that GoZ does not yet support modo 601 (just 501). They can’t give an ETA, but they assured me the development team is working on an update.

I think this problem is mostly effecting Mac users, but in the mean time I suggest using modo 501 (if you have it) for GoZ operations.

Oh thats good to hear they are working on it, I’ve plenty to learn in Modo for the time being.

I just hope that I don’t have to re-install Zbrush later if I’ve already messed around and tried to tweak files etc to get the GoZ link to work.

I did notice my GoZ button in the Modo animate tab, I was searching for it, for a little while!!

GoZ works just fine with Modo 601 on my machine.

Win 7 x64.

So I would say it’s a Mac OS only issue.

Modo 601 is still not supported. Any idea when this will happen?
win 7 64bit
