Why do you need a fix for zremesher? There are several ways to guide edge loops … There are tools inside zbrush meant to be used for that particular purpose . You need to be able to take the decision about where you want a closed edge loop and where you need the topology to adapt to the shape . Zbrush doesn’t know if it’s an elbow or the knee …anyway I love digressions so I am having fun with this thread lol
Hmm… as Summer turned to Fall, and now Fall to Winter… is everything okay ? With the precious? ZR7?
Anything we can do? Send coffee? Starbucks Eggnog Lattes? Crisps?
She’s going past 9 months to overdue---- !
Still a way to go to the end of Fall/Autumn:
From Wikipedia,
In North America, autumn is usually considered to start with the September equinox[5] and end with the winter solstice (21 or 22 December)
Sorry to bring you down!
Was just about to post that SPRINGFIELD-JACK!
Was just about to post that SPRINGFIELD-JACK!
Give it a week or so you’ll get another chance-I’m fairly sure it’s already been posted somewhere in this thread:D
Looking forward to it. -
a response like that tells me you enjoy the wait, or the use of trivial facts no-one cares about to pamper your self esteem up a small notch.
Thanks for the invite but I prefer to keep my buttocks toasty and attached:D
Escuse me, but during or after the CTN Pixologic dont release any update for 4r7…? This is at minimum “non normal”? Or not? No think about the upcoming release date? Nobody has any different info? Thx and fall in not for ever***128513;
I’ll bet 100 pixels that they announce the release of 4R7 at CTN next weekend
I really could have used that 100 pixels lol
Simply A.M.A.Z.I.N.G. 
I’m looking to upgrade my computer just for Zbrush 4r7 since my motherboard doesn’t support the current type of RAM I’d rather change the whole comp than upgrade the mobo and RAM . This computer will be mostly for Zbrush, no gaming. Any suggestions?
To the pixologic team, I know you can’t give advice on specific brands and models but, I’m looking to get the best performance for the money, I don’t render often, my main focus is speed while modeling.
Will Zbrush still not use the video card?
What should I look for in a CPU? Specs wise.
Does an SSD help?
I don’t want to overspend for marginal gains? My budget is $1000
Look at this build (minus the 970). Can I get similar performance with cheaper parts for modeling in Zbrush?

by the way, these settings you took are excellent choice, however, you can go with 32gb of ram since zbrush will be in 64bits, right ? ^^ for the graphic card, if you plan to only use zbrush, you can directly remove it and since zbrush rely mainly on processor… unless you will keep it for playing games ? 
With 4R7 your primary concerns will be RAM (amount and speed) and CPU.
Since 4R7 will have be available in a (beta) 64-bit version it will be able to use as much RAM as your system has. This will primarily benefit you when dealing with lots of SubTools, layers and subdivision levels.
The CPU will affect rendering speed and how smooth your interaction with the mesh is while sculpting. More cores is a more important consideration than core speed. The easiest way to compare CPU’s is to multiply the speed by the number of cores, then compare the resulting values. So a dual core processor at 4 GHz (value of 8) is actually inferior to a quad core processor at 3 GHz (value of 12).
SSD will not make much difference at all – especially with the 64-bit version of ZBrush. This is because it only comes into play when ZBrush has to write to disk. That’s primarily when saving files and compacting memory. The former is an infrequent operation and the latter will rarely happen in a system with lots of RAM. I’d just go with a 7,200 rpm mechanical drive.
And no, your GPU doesn’t play a role at all.
Of course, all of this only applies to ZBrush. If you’re using other apps that require GPU and/or do a lot of writing to disk, then keep those in mind.
Aurick. Will the 64 bit perhaps get rid of the black when I’m sculpting? What I mean is if I’m working away what I end up seeing is some sort of artifact build up. If I jiggle the mouse a bit it goes away but upon working on the sculpt again it returns until the next jiggle of the mouse. I figured it was brought on by the program only being 32 bit. If not then it’s a mystery to me. :o

That seems more possibly a display or graphics card issue than a bug in ZBrush. If it is a bug, I haven’t heard of it before.
Odd since it’s happened for many years and upgrades and MANY NVIDIA graphics cards with many Windows OS’s. I’m more prone to using the NVIDIA cards since that’s the card that works best with DAZ Studio and I like the NVIDIA cards too! 
@ RAMWolff I hadn’t experienced that EVER… It has to be something on your end… maybe a HDMI or MONITOR issue?
I have a good monitor, a ViewSonic and hooked up to the NVIDIA card using the DVI port. I’ve tried the HDMI and the VGA ports with the same results.
I have the same issue here but supposed it to be normal behaviour as I remember haveing had it in previous versions also. As it is only a minor viewport problem I never gave it much attention.
It is a bit annoying but then again I’m used to much worse from the days I still used Cinema4D. And no, I do not use an old card but an EVGA 4GB GTX 770 card now. With the latest driver.
Perhaps it will be gone with the 64bit version. The two are not related, but with OpenGL one never knows.
Glad to know I’m not the only one! lol
I do have a new system on it’s way to me. I can’t wait.
Hope you don’t mind if I post the list of goodies… Bought from CyberPower, down in the San Jose a few miles from where I live!

I’m a total Gigabyte fan. Love their boards. Best in my opinion. I wanted more memory but this is a newer memory type so hopefully it will be speedier than what I have on my old machine I’m on now. I live in an old building with old wiring so when I realized that the entire machine running only used about 400 WATTS I decided to go easy and just got a 650 WATT power supply rather than the 800 that came default with the original specs. I love CyberPower as they have a really nice way to customize stuff. Instantly updates the price and all that. Got this ordered on Black Friday so some good prices and free shipping! Been buying from them for years now. They only pissed me off once when I was having issues they never got back to me… that’s changed now as they are ON IT when you contact them.
So yea, I’m hoping the 64 bit and this new rig will erase that artifact stuff in the view port.
