GoZ for LightWave

ZBrush Usage Questions
#1

I’m hoping that Pixologic will make it for LW96 and CORE.

I’m geussing that you would have to account for our wieght map system.
Would also be cool if our morph system would be recognized as well.

I have been working on my work flow from LW to ZB and back. The system
of exporting the Sub_lvl_1 model instead of the morph target doesn’t seem
to work by morphing to the background in modeler, but i have found that
conforming to background works. (seems to give artifacts in places the mesh
didn’t change but when i subpatch it looks fine)

If you are working on GoZ for LW or CORE (as i am a HC member) and
want insight on how certain things work for LW
(for CORE im sure i would need permission) i would be glad to help,
giving info or gathering it for you.

Don’t leave us out the loop. :confused:

Hope you get somewhere with this Vonbon. I gave up a long time ago getting a definitive answer from either Pixologic or Newtek as to who was responsible fore developing GoZ for Lightwave. I got plenty of answers from people who thought they knew (lots of different answers actually), but none from either Pixologic or Newtek.

#3

I don´t know if it is possible to do the GoZ connection to Lightwave but I heard from Jay Roth that Pixologic has access to the Core SDK, so it is a consistent request.
Please, Pixologic guys, put some love in this.
Thank you in advance!

i second that!! Please don’t leave the LW guys out in the rain.

#5

Yes,

When looking at Program compatibility and GO Z,
Do remember to add in Light Wave 9.6 and Core to the list GO Z applications that can access/have compatibility/interactivity between
Z Brush 3.5 or Z Brush 4 and Light Wave users. :+1:

Absolutely!

#7

No doubt about it. Definite must for a serious Lightwave Modeler/ Rendering Artiste!

#8

GoZ for LightWave - that will be nice.:slight_smile:

#9

Couldn’t agree more. GoZ for LightWave / CORE would be much appreciated and useful.

#10

Certainly would.

Another LW’er here.

#13

Support for Core should be fundamental at this point. NT should extend all necessary resources toward developing a version of GoZ.

#14

would be nice

#15

I’ve been hoping for a LW/ZBrush connection for years. GoZ for LW just makes sense.It would make for some smaller bills for Advil or Tylenol.

#16

It still surprises me that despite this being one of many threads both here, at Newtek and Foundation3D, there have been no ‘official’ responses from either Pixologic or Newtek about this. What gives? Is it a big secret? Is no one interested in us?

#17

dunno how much notice is taken of us users, but just in case, add me to the petition!

#18

Add me also. I use lightwave a great deal.

#19

I am sure we are being noticed. It just seems to be a matter of priorities. Newtek has other (big) problems right now and for Pixo … well there is a tiny thing called ZB4 on the way, and honestly i can live perfectly for now without GoZ for LW as long as i can get my hands on Z4:D And maybe the Pixo guys will even have a surprise for us too. They tend to do that.

Just my 2 cents …

Rob Powers Notices I’m sure.Since Zbrush and Lightwave is part of his pipeline he will put in the good word if no one else will.
