Newb here…
One of the fascinating things about Zbrush is how it can do something that a regular 3-D program would take hours to do. Slice curves is a boon for hard surface modeling however I feel lately with the latest ver of Zbrush If I cut up an object too many times the edges are really ragged and look pretty bad. Is there a work around? I have blur off and group option on. Polish on or off still yields same result but seems to be a little better with it on.
turn on polypaint.
I did… I am able to seperate and I just tried it now… but result is still the same.
The more resolution you have, the better the results will be. There’s probably a way to make your shape by extracting masked areas with thickness.
No matter the resolution… result has been the same. As soon as I hit Zremesher (with the paint brush option on …Polypaint) it creates all these jaggies. I’m sure there is a work around, some things in Zbrush can drive me nuts others it’s pure bliss.
Looks like a sphere to me. Mask an area you want separate, then in the subtool panel at bottom are options to extract. You can play with them. I posted a macro called ExtracT.txt which uses the settings from that panel, so set them first. Just look into my attachments. You could copy the original, masking remains for reference or inversion. Works well, IMHO better than trying to cut something up. Happy ZBrushing New Year
Yes any object I try this on, results seem to be the same. I think in R4 this wasn’t an issue. Wish this would work as is. I’m going to try your method in a bit. I got some time off and I want to see if I can execute some concepts in mind.
You should DynaMesh 1 slice at a time and not multiple slices all at once. It’s best if you re-DynaMesh after each subsequent slice.
I think that was the ticket! Thanks so much… I just tried it works… however as I remeshed my final cut it seems to have locked up. Thanks guys for your input, really thankful ya’ll chimed in.
HAPPY NEW YEAR TO YOUALL.
