Zsphere missing from tools

Just installed zb4r3, aaaand the zsphere appears to be missing. I can load ztls, there’s the polysphere, but no zsphere.

halp?

EDIT; resolved, had a friend mail me the tool.

but yeah, any idea what happened? Is the .ztl stored somewhere special or something? The install is fresh and legit, the IT guys put it on my rig yesterday…

Where are you looking for it? You didn’t mention.

You said there’s the Polysphere. That means you’re looking in LightBox – an area that contains supplemental files that are not loaded into ZBrush at launch. The ZSphere is a core ZBrush feature. As such it’s found in the Tool palette rather than in the LightBox>Tools folder.

Huh! I never saw the expandable menu! That…well, I feel dumb BUT I’m glad it wasnt my intallation XD Thanks guys!

actually, what happens to the simple single zsphere after you’ve created a zsphere model? it seems like after you make a zsphere armature, the only zsphere to can append again is that armature… the single zsphere is gone.

Really? I don’t think so.

thanks for the reply… actually, i wish my interface looked like that but it doesn’t! i can’t see zsphere1 anymore when i create a zsphere model… any idea where it could be hiding?

EDIT: tried it again on a fresh zb scene and it is indeed there, just like in your screen. for me, it disapeared in a previous project where i had a lot of custom tools that i created. when i created a new tool with the zsphere, (i just wanted to make a bunch of quick zsphere trees), and then when i went back to get another zsphere to start a new tree, i couldn’t find it.
