Not naive to me. Bump bump

…still waiting :wink:
GoZ had me spoiled, even with it’s little glitches it definitely saved some time.
501 is great though, the rendering improvements alone was worth the upgrade.

Waiting here too…love 501…love Goz…need them to play together :slight_smile:

hello any news on goz for modo 501?

Any update on this?

Lights up a cig… looks around, goes up to the bar and looks deep into the bartenders eyes and says “Sup man… Have you heard anything on GOZ for modo 501 yet?”
The Bartender turns around after cleaning the counter top and puts a small glass cup back on the rack. He looks at Mr.Storm through the refection of the mirror on the wall and says "Well that depends… I heard the last guy that said no to you got blasted with a shot gun… "
Mr. Storm says “Yeah your heard right…” A loud clicking sound is heard under the black rain coat of Mr. Storm… A deep silence falls over the bar and even the bugs pause for a moment… The air goes dry…
“Don’t make me ask again…” Says Mr.Storm. “You wont like it if I have to ask again…”
The bartender’s lips are shaking at this point and he says, “It’s-it’s in beta and they are trying hard to get all the bugs out but OS X can be hard to program for and it might take a few more weeks…”
“Cool” says Mr. Storm… “I can live with that… I’ll be back in 2 weeks time and when I come back you better have some good news.”
Storm looks around the room and picks out a zbrush guru. “You there… The guy with hair on just the sides, drinking that wine and cheese and drawing sexy lady’s on a cheap yellow pad of paper… what’s your name?”
The man looks up and says “My name is Neville Page.”
Mr.Storm says “Great… you’ll do just fine…”

Come with me if you want to live… I need some help with a BioNinjaFrog with wings…"

Well I got a oneway workaround working zbrush to modo, which is fine for what i need for now details are here if anyone is interested

Oh good man!

I’ll look at your work around asap!

-peace

Bump! Now that the ZBrush4 trial is out, any chance Modo users will get some love?:wink:

I think Luxology does not want the GoZ update too soon.

I'm sure they want to give users the time to use/experiment with, sculpting in 501. Its better than It was in 401, but it's not ZB4. I'm a Modo501 user and the Modo Gallery is not showing much promise in regard to Modo's Sculpting. Time will change that, as users skill with 501Sculpting improves. There's a few decent examples, but I'll wait till the GoZ for 501 is here and sculpt in the application that it works best in(ZB4).

:bump: any kind of feedback would be great, even if it’s just to tall us not happening until xmas, although that would make me sad :frowning:

It’s in the pipe :slight_smile:

that’ll be the problem then - plumbing and programming not a good combination

Any news?

I’ll have to remember how to do it with out goz.
Anyone have a link to a good tut on exporting from zbrush to modo 501?

Im still using the modo 401 route, its cold out here, so cold

Yeh, any word on the update?

Please - people from Pixologic - we are waiting for some answers to this issue!
Any real information?

We all should patience and here’s why.
OS Lion for the Mac is coming out this summer. It will include some changes, one being open GL3 support.

I don’t know programing at all, but I’ve read a few forums and one thing IS clear, some things are complicated.

Here is what I do in the meantime.
select the subtool, export it as ‘bridge.obj’.
open Modo 501, command+0 (open shurtcut) and select ‘bridge’.
Make my changes, command+s (save shortcut), and switch to Zbrush.
import ‘bridge’ right on top of the subtool, projecting the details.
Continue working.

Cool, still a bit of a zb newb, what specifically do you mean by projecting the details?

When you import an .obj file into Zbrush, into a subtool that already has multiple subdivision levels, Zbrush will give you a message box. Zbrush tells you that you have multiple subdivision levels - do you want to project all the subdivision levels onto the .obj file import?

You simply click the ‘Yes’ button.
