Question about Triangles

[dragotron]

Sorry for all the noob questions…If I import an object into Zbrush with Triangles then work on the obj… then export it again will it mess me up? I am working with a hard surface object and have some tris in there since I wasn’t planning on deforming it in those areas. Should I really go in and make sure I have zero triangles before importing an object into Zbrush?

In what scenario might I do that?
thanks

well, the less tris the better. You don’t have to waste your time trying to eliminate every last one of them, but it definitely helps to have your mesh with little or no tris, especially when we are talking about hard surface modeling.
