Is it possible to export a ztl file to an older version of ZBrush?

I’m a total newb and have just discovered how wonderful it is (sarcasm) that the MAC version of ZBrush doesn’t have Zmapper.

I’ve got access to a PC version of Zbrush where I can process out the Normal Map I need, based off of the ZTL file I did on my Mac. The latest issue I’m dealing with in this work around is that the PC version of ZBrush is 3.1 but my Mac version is 3.12.

Does anybody know if I can export out my ZTL as an older version, or if Mac ZBrush files will even work on a PC?

Thanks in advance.

.ztl’s are not backward’s compatible, however you can export your model as a obj at your highest level and use that in the older version then do a reconstruct subdivions to get your levels back

By “Recunstruct Subdivisions” do you mean decreasing my subdivisions back down to the models original geometry?

Thanks much!
