Snake Hook distance limitation on certain angles?

Hello all,

I have been using the snake hook recently and I noticed that sometimes at certain angles when I pull out geometry using the snake hook, the geometry suddenly stops at a shorter range than others as shown in the picture, while I can pull out some geometry really far out as opposed to others.

Can someone please tell me why?

Thank you!

Hello @Samsam2020

Like most brushes, by default Snakehook stretches out the existing polygons, which means eventually you will simply stretch the polygons way out of shape and distort the geometry.

Snakehook works far better with Sculptris Pro mode, which will add additional geometry in real time to keep the polygons from becoming distorted.

Thank you for your response! I will check out Sculptris Pro soon!
