Totally new to this and learning quickly but Im having an issue where every time I try and make my zspheres into an adaptive skin Zbrush crashes… any thoughts? thank yoU!
Now Im finding it is with one ZSphere piece in particular… are there certain things I need to look out for when converting?
You shouldn’t be getting a crash with Adaptive Skins but it’s possible that the model has become corrupted in some way. If the problem recurs please let us know.
When creating a ZSphere model, if you see a dotted area as shown in the image then that indicates that the resulting Adaptive Skin will not be ‘clean’ at that point and it is best to move the ZSpheres further apart. However, meshes created from such an arrangement should not crash ZBrush.

I’ve sometimes experienced crashes when using zspheres; they did seem to be due to badly placed spheres as marcus suggests. When new to using them, I also inadvertently had tiny spheres inside the rig without realising - sometimes it crashed and sometimes not - but since I’ve become more aware of placement I’ve had no trouble.
I have had this many times, not recently though. I"m not really sure what causes adaptive skins to crash ZBrush. I would get it even toggling the a key.
