Strange Polypaint Projection behavior.

ZBrush Usage Questions
#1

Hi all,

Has anyone here noticed that using layers and “ProjectAll” does not work with polypainting?

I was trying to project the polypaint information of one Tool onto my main Tool. I activated the “Record” button before pressing the “ProjectAll” button. Unfortunately, only the depth information is projected. Not the polypaint data.

All I can do is simply project onto the tool itself and not onto a new layer. However, should I add another layer, do some work and then turn off the “record” button, my projected polypaint disappears!

Can someone confirm if this is a limitation? Or a bug?

Thanks

I see the same thing.

Seems like a limitation.

I read that some people just keep the projectAll feature and layers completely separate from each other.

They would bake the layers down before projecting. That does make things messier. You know, duplicates…

Does anyone else notice this too?

Thanks!
