while on this topic, a feature request:

it’d be great to get STL export from zbrush. Several 3dprint places I’ve called can’t load OBJ, and its proving almost impossible to convert our 1.7million poly models without crashing every piece of software we have.

If zbrush could save STL directly, getting high-quality models printed would be much much easier. We’ve had to drop down a level or 2, which due to the nature of 3dprint technology, shows up as nasty faceting on the final printed model.

Please pixologic? Pleeeeeaaaasse? :slight_smile:

its not hard to convert OBJ to STL. You can even do it out of Maya, Studio Tools,Solidworks, Polytrans or any other package.

STL file format requires some settings in place for tolerance. I am going to ask Chris Reid once he is done with “the plugin” to write us one.

Can anyone provide me with STL documentation?

I know its not hard to convert obj to stl.

The problem is converting zbrush generated obj to stl.

Maya can’t even load our highest res meshes without crashing, let alone convert it. It’d all be a lot simpler if zbrush could just generate the stl files directly.

like your work :slight_smile:

Solid works and Alias Studio tools I’ve exported millions of polys to STL.

I will ask Chris Reid to help us out in this area. Its definately something that we need.
