Hey Ryan,
If you are in the Maxon app, there is a sync button upper right, click it and it should show you there is an update (in blue) next to ZBrush. Try that.
Jaime
still no dice. I was on the beta. could that have messed it up?
Just go to – > Maxon - Downloads and login with your registered email then to to ZBrush tab you will see Download button there.

Unfortunately the 3DConnexion SpaceMouse doesn’t work on M1 Macs… I hope this will be supported in the near future
Hi Ryan, I had the exact same issue. I went to the Maxon website, logged in using the login I use for the Maxon app and downloaded 2023 from there. When I ran zbrush and tried a redshift render it gave a message saying redshift couldn’t be found, so I downloaded and installed that separately and it all works fine now.
Pretty sure this is a mix up due to the Maxon purchase of zbrush and will all be ironed out in the future.

Hello! I am kinda confused I got the life time perpetual back in 2020 and I have the question do I have to pay for new updates? thanks
Yes. The final free upgrade is ZBrush 2022. You have perpetual use of that version without any further cost. For ZBrush 2023 or beyond, you will have to purchase that. See here.
Hello,
Is the 2023 zbrush files compatibles with the 2022 version of zbrush?
As you’re spliting the community you have to do it, plz.
i don’t want to revive 3dsmax stuff when i have to keep every version of the software to work with freelancers and studios.

Hello folks.
The update is brilliant as always. Thank you for your hard work and really good update. However I have one negative opinion on price and selling plans. I agree with the costs and accept it but I’d like to buy a perpetual update only for ZBrush features without a bridge for Redshift at less price. I don’t want to pay for a bridge if I do not plan to use Redshift in my work.
In my opinion the bridge for Redshift should be paid separately as a Redshift.
It would be done like in the Keyshot plan you had in the past.
Please add this option for users.
Thank you and all the best to the development team.

Totally agree…
WOw, i totally misunderstood the whole REDSHIFT a part of ZBRUSH. Thats IF you buy a subscription to REDSHIFT ALSO correct? Not, something built INTO ZBrush. Can someone just confirm?
It’s like with KeyShot.
The Bridge is free to everyone. But the renderer that is accessed by that Bridge has a cost involved.
For technical reasons, Redshift cannot be a perpetual license. It requires too-frequent updates for that to be possible. So it has to be a subscription and therefore cannot be bundled with the perpetual license upgrade.
- Perpetual license ZBrush 2023 users can purchase that subscription separately.
- ZBrush subscribers are being given Redshift CPU as part of the ZBrush subscription. Redshift GPU still requires a Redshift subscription.
- Maxon One subscribers automatically have a Redshift subscription and so they automatically have both Redshift CPU and GPU.
In all cases, Redshift itself must also be installed via the Maxon App. This is important to note because many ZBrush subscribers are upgrading to ZBrush 2023 but not also installing Redshift and are therefore getting an error the first time that they go to use Redshift rendering.

Thanks, sorry I did the same. I Installed REDSHIFT now and I am able to use it for the CPU rendering inside of ZBrush. Thanks for the clarification.
Hey guys,
Is Keyshot still working for anyone here?
If I try to send a mesh from Zbrush to Keyshot 10.2 Zbrush gives me the message “Sorry Redshift could not be located” followed by an abnormal termination of ZBrush.
Or sometimes it crashes directly without the message.
Cheers Chris

This is a known issue on the Mac and a fix is being worked on.

Im on PC but great you guys are already looking into it!
