Can´t paint color anymore???

ZBrush Usage Questions
#1

Hi there
I need your help. For some reasons I can´t paint color onto my texture.
For example: I loaded the ZbrushDemosoldier, used GUVtiles and put a new Texture on it. Now I wanted to paint, but no color was shown at the model.
Yes, I used only RGB. The only way to paint on the texture is the projectionmodeEditor.
Do I have to hit a button first to color my texture?
No problems with Polypainting, but with texturepainting!?

Thanks for any help.
Kind regards
Hilmar

In ZBrush 3, don’t try painting on your texture in Edit mode. If you want to paint on the texture directly, you need to use Projection Master.

Better is to use PolyPaint, which as you said you have no trouble with. When you’re done painting, it’s a snap to transfer that to a texture. If you already have a texture that you wish to edit, you should transfer that to PolyPaint, then back to texture again when you’re done.

AH! Ok. Thanks a lot.

I will use the polypainting function.
Thanks
