Dynamesh: Weird sudden polygon count increase

ZBrush Usage Questions
#1

Hi there

So I am working on a dynamesh with approx. 45000 Polys. Then for no apparent reason the polygon count goes up to 2,5 mill when updating my mesh. There have been no drastic changes on the model, nor do I have changed the dynamesh resolution or anything else that could cause it. I am unable to update to a lower polygon amount. Lowering the dynamesh resolution has no effect, nor does exiting dynamesh and reentering or restarting zbrush. This is driving me crazy. Whyyyyy? :mad:

Did you scale your mesh?
Have you tried exporting the model as a .obj and importing it into a new project?
Have you tried duplicating your model, decimating it, then using Zremesher to generate a new mesh? You can always project your details back on from the old mesh.
