Just counting down the days until Z-DAY!
Won’t be long now…
Monday Monday, so good to me,
Monday Monday, it was all I hoped it would be
Oh Monday morning, Monday morning could guarantee
That Monday evening we’ll all be using Z3
i prey come Monday morning we don’t have to sing the second verse of that song
"Monday Monday, can’t trust that day,
Monday Monday, sometimes it just turns out that way
Oh Monday morning, you gave me no warning of what was to be
Oh Monday Monday, how yould cou leave and not take me.
Every other day, every other day,
Every other day of the week is fine, yeah
But whenever Monday comes, but whenever Monday comes
You can find me cryin’ all of the time"
Ha-ha! Good one, fidget! Even if it should arrive as scheduled, we all can’t download it Monday anyway.
To quote another song: The waiting is the hardest part.
FYI, aurick said that the first download batches were going out on the 30th, which is tuesday. So get ready to sing that second verse…
I’m finishing out all of my bootcamp sculpts and hoping to have them composited by the release. I’m going to post 4 zbrush illustrations that I had a ton of fun with. The one I’m working on right now has made me a digital sculptor for life, guaranteed. It’s been more enjoyable than any 2d I’ve done, traditional or digital. For those that haven’t been using bootcamp, you’ve got a lot to look forward to.
I would like to start a fresh project with the mac release, but I didn’t fill out the damn form until halfway through the month. I’ll probably have quite a bit of extra time to finish the compositing, while the rest of you chumps zmac it up.
Tuesday, eh?..Better write that down.
How long do you think it’ll take for all the emails to be sent?
Hope it’ll be just a couple of days. I just can’t wait.
I agree: The waiting is killing me! Hopefully, all the upgrades can be downloaded as quickly as possible.
I purchased ZBrush in early September. An email from ZBrush Support said it could take 3-5 days to upgrade all customers.
So… anybody got theirs yet?
Posted 1hr ago on the main forum. So that’s Tuesday evening at the earliest in the UK.
I think i can speak for the group by saying we are all pretty damn well rested when it comes to resting on zBrush. it’s not even considered resting anymore, it is called hibernation.
bring on the z already, and do it sometime before apple’s time machine literally is a time machine.
at least its finally and fully on the cards, whats a couple more days when we’ve been waiting over a year? Have some base meshes made up in max here in work just waiting to be Z’d anyone see anything about hard sculpting for vehicles?
I too have spent my time preparing base meshes ready for sculpting. Ooh so many features to try out! Been using it under VMWare for a month now but need it natively to do anything serious.
I filled that form in pretty damn early so I’m hoping to be one of the first to receive the download. Even so, I’m thinking ‘this week’ rather than any particular day. No need to punish myself any more than I have already.
I thought it would be a good idea for mac users to mention when posting any work that it was done in the mac version. Not that I want to create a mac/pc divide or anything, but it’ll be interesting to see work from those of us who have had to wait 
Z DAY!!!
Don’t expect anything too early though. If I remember when 3 came out it wasn’t until late in the day.
I totally agree with fidget. The only Zs I need are the Zs you find in ZBrush 3 for mac. Bring it!
Well it would help if Apple’s stupid MobileMe hadn’t been down ALL friggin’ day. I could have been mailed by now!
i just thought I would ask here as well as do some searching.
Do you think that the training for zb3 on pc should transfer more or less to the zb3 mac? The concept and general layout should be consistent right?
what would people recommend for intro training videos? gnomon? or other?
Thanks
James
I’m familiar with the ones from Digital Tutors, Kurv, and Gnomon Workshop. IMHO, the Gnomon “Intro to ZBrush 3” by Meats Meiers is by far the best.
Also don’t overlook the many tutorials at Pixologic.
HTH
anyone got the new mac osx zbrush 3.12 yet?
