Zsphere question from the tutorials

ZBrush Usage Questions
#1

Hi

I am doing a basic tutorial fo the head following some instructions but something is misssing with the z spheres.

The spheres for the eyes ears and mount goes outwards instead of inwards.

Hwo do I change that so it works like in the tutorial?

Thanx for all the help

#2

Just move [press Move in Edit mode] the zspheres inwards. You’ll see them change appearance when they’re inside the ‘head’ zsphere.

Thanx

It’s hard to understand if no one tells you :slight_smile:

Thanx again

Thanks for the help.
But know I got the next problem: once I moves the spheres inside the main parent sphere I can’t see them and select them…

Can I make the paent sphere transparent or force Zbrush to render all the bones of the child spheres not just one which I happen to have selected?

Thanks

#5

The trick is to move the ZSpheres into the parent JUST ENOUGH that the ZSphere turns transparent, but not so far that it actually disappears inside.

Thanx it’s not easy to understand these things… :slight_smile:

According to your preview mesh it also seems you have added very small child zspheres. Scaling them larger makes them easier to insert and you will get the results you see in the tutorial.

If you need to you can change the on screen size of the zspheres through the Tool > Size slider, the Tool > Density slider might also help in some cases. Adjustment to these sliders has no effect on the adaptive skin generation.
