-
Modelled lowpoly basemesh in max.
-
Decided to take it into Zbrush for practice as I was planning on creating a normal map for it.
-
Ended up being quite happy with the highres model I sculpted, unfortunately I didn’t do the UV’s so I was under the impression I had to UV it in max and start over.
-
After a LOT of research and messing around, I managed to export the lowest subdivision back into MAX, I then created UV’s for it using Unwrella, imported back into zbrush successfully and it created a normal map for me, by this point I was buzzing.
Then I hit a wall, I lost the basic polypaint I did with my test piece, which was fine, I’ll just paint another, but for some reason I cannot add anything to the current file, it’s like it’s locked or something.
I can’t Zadd, RGBadd or anything, I have 1-5 subdivisions, and the UV’s i created are preserved, all I want to do now, is create a basic polypaint to texture, then export to max for rigging/animation.
I’m very new at this sort of stuff so I’m clearly missing something crucial, if anyone could help me that would be awesome.
Here are some images of what I’m working on…
