Importing smoothing groups?

ZBrush Usage Questions
#1

Hi guys. I’ve been googling and searching a way to import smoothing groups information to zbrush to get those hard edges easily. Smooth group import plug-in doesn’t seem to work with zbrush 4r4 anymore. Does anyone know a good alternative method or plug-in? I know there is a crease option in zbrush but it doesn’t seem to work very well with more complex geometry and I wouldn’t want to crease those edges manually because it takes time. Only good alternative seems to be using turbosmooth and separate by smoothing groups method in max.

So any other ideas how to get that smoothing group infromation to zbrush? Thanks.

EDIT: Nevermind, the smooth group import plug-in works just perfectly.

I actually downloaded it from the pixologic’s site, it was on the zbrush 3.5 plugins section but I can’t find the direct link to there and it seems one can’t browse to there on the site. So I uploaded it to my ftp and here’s the link http://alelaina.viuhka.fi/settia/SmoothGroupImport_PC_35.zip
