[Answered] Can GoZ work with ZBrush 3.1?

ZBrush Usage Questions
#1

Before actually buying ZBrush, I’m checking out an old trial version that can be found in websites that offer legit trials of software. It’s ZBrush 3.1, which I believe is older than the GoZ plugin. I’ve installed GoZ and it hasn’t been detected by ZBrush (but is correctly set up in 3DS Max).

I’ve tried the manual installation steps and and the steps in the Help file but it doesn’t work for me: there’s no GoZ menu in Preferences or any other place in ZBrush 3.1.

So, that’s why I ask: is ZBrush 3.1 actually compatible with GoZ?

#2

I don’t believe it is supported in that version. Maybe you can export from it then import to Max.

#3

Thanks for your answer. Exporting (in obj, the only option in 3.1, apparently) is OK for geometry but can be nightmarish for the paint and texture maps. Well, I assume this won’t happen once I buy 4R6.

#4

No, it won’t work… ZBrush 3.1 doesn’t have the build in components to run GoZ.

Please, can you PM me the url of this trial please?

#5

Thank you for the explanation, I can definitely mark this thread as solved.

PM sent.
