Hi all,
I knew ZBrush now can export FiberMesh as curves via ma, obj, fmg …etc.
But I really want to know is it possible to
‘import curves’ from obj file into ZBursh for the furthering sculpting.
I have tried export obj with tons of curves from other software.
When I try to import the obj using Tool/Import, ZBrush just said ‘cannot open’.
It would be very helpful if we can transfer those hair curves back and forth.
Hi all,
I also try to import the FiberMesh obj export from ZB directly from Tool/Import.
It also shows ‘cannot open’.
Does that mean ZB cannot import any curve geometry from obj ??
Hi all,
I have tried import all kinds of obj files containing ‘line’(curve).
The exact error message is “Error encountered while importing a file”.
I want to know is there any method can import those line in?
I don’t have the experience of zscript.
Can zscript help me import line(curve) data into zbrush??
Thanks.
Have you tried to export .obj from the other software without all the fancy options?

v for the coordinate of a vertex point
g for group, vertices in each hair strand belong to one group, named as Fiber*
l for line(curve), the order of the following number represent the order of vertices in line.
ZB cannot open the obj file even for this simple format.
Hi all,
Anyone has suggestion about this problem?
Or somebody can just tell me ‘It is impossible to import curves into ZB for now’ !?
Thanks.
It let me export as .obj 
, but I got an error when I tried to import it :rolleyes:. I guess it’s not possible yet ? 
Thanks.
If it is the case,
how can I let the developers of ZB notice this!?
So the function might be implemented in future version.
Will they see the threads in forum?
