Free for all registered users: and I thought you developers were all thye same. Thank you Zbrush. Will post work soon.
No program does it like you guys, believe the hype that is Zbrush.
But, … isn’t how high a poly you can go depends on how big the memory is and not as much on the processor itself?
Never mind the bollocks! the feast is on in may. Good reason to upgrade the old machine :lol:
To a certain extent yes. With proper paging to disk of hidden geometry, it’s a limit of your ram + HD space. Of course, the speed of your CPU and Disk will determine how quickly you can manipulate it. 
Hail to the king baby!
Congrats to all the crew of Pixologic! I cant wait to put my sticky fingers on that billionthing 
All the best
hey… it can not be true!!!
I didn´t see anything… I didn´t see anything… you didn´t see anything
It can not be happend… it is just another nightmare… zbrush 3 is not here…
please… I need Help 
Can’t wait for this release, looks incredible…
there is usa billion and european billion. they meant usa billion, thats one thousand million: 1.000.000.000.
someone said to me (a programmer) u will need at least 5 gig of ram for just the polygon stuff (not uv info), but of course it depends on the “operating system” and other stuff u have to load.
That is assuming it is real geometry and not some type of new interpolation of hyper Pixo Magic Candy Geometry.
Hahaha, don’t take this the wrong way, but what exactly do any of you intend to do with that many polys? 
As for Crusoe the Painter’s post about Intel Uber processor, you really missed that one. Intel have the first light/optic processor and progress to putting it in a system is going along very well. Still 5 years out at a minimum though.
You are just going to have to wait, but I can assure you Zbrush 2.0 is the current limitation and Zbrush2.5-3 removes that. Just start working out your projects, get your sketches ready, be prepared to work hard and be thankful a group of people really want to always offer the best tool in the industry. It’s a very rare thing to see this kind of motivation after major success.
RULE
THE
WORLD!
what about the non intel mac users?
Awesome news. I just can wait … !!!
Free upgrade to an awesome package? I am indeed stunned.
I just knew I chose the right software company when I purchased ZB years ago.
“Thanks” really doesn’t say it …

If the upgrade to zbrush 3 is free for registered people, how do I register my zbrush 2. It’s activated and running, but where do I register it? Any help would be appreciated.
Registration activates Zbrush.
I don’t see how you can have one and not the other.
