ZBrush Usage Questions
#1

Hi!

I’m really sorry that I do post my questions in here, as I see there are a lot of noobs like me asking all the time. :o

I’m working through a hundreds of different tutorials at the moment (yes, at the same time) :wink: . The problem is, that most of them are for Zbrush2…

So I want to ask some questions in this thread concerning the differences in the tutorials.
Hope that this is ok!? :confused:

The “ZBrush 2 Practical Guide”:
Bamboo Project:

  1. I should create a plane, gave it a material, make it to a 2.5D-Model.
    Then I should change the material-settings (specular, noise, bump)… BUT:
  • there was no effect on my 2.5D-Plane -.- why?
  • I just couldn’t find the noise curve (I know there is a brush, but the effect really isn’t the same)
  • don’t know where to find bump

So I tried again, wanted to change the material BEFORE I made the plane to 2.5D but again, there was no effect (tried to set specular higher)…

Sorry for the length of my “question” :wink:

hope, anyone helps me!?

Greetings
the A.

The best place to begin is with the tutorial movies and the online documentation for 3.1. Both are found in my signature. After you understand those, you’ll better be able to deal with any tutorials you might still want to do from ZBrush 2, because you’ll at least be able to identify what has changed and any new features that make older techniques obsolete.
