Dyamesh weld issue

ZBrush Usage Questions
#1

Hi all. I have been practicing speedsculpting with dynamesh option an its really great but I run into a small issue. Dynamesh automatically welds vertexes which is great but what if I want it to weld at specific areas only ? The only solution I have found is to open the mouth of my model and then use dynamesh auto retopology but what if I want to keep the mouth closed? Any ideas ? Also, I would like to keep my polygroups after welding. Dynamesh will destroy them.

Maybe extracting a mesh from the subtools would work for you.

dynamesh is based on scale. so anything too close will weld. The only way to stop this is to increase your resolution…but this will get out of hand, very quickly.

The option that you have current is the only one open to you other than a retopo. You’ll have to open the mouth, dynamesh, then close it.

Dynamesh will always destroy your polygroups because it is creating a completely new mesh.
