ZBrush Usage Questions
#1

Will Pixologic look at the render-Bugs we have (mac) in the next release?
Or do we get a fix before. This because we normaly wait too long for an update.
1:We cannot use ZBrush for illustrations anymore. Calculating he last part of a rendering bigger as the standard size makes ZB crash. (Please do not come with questions about how much subtools, what kind of materials or ‘We cannot copy this problem’. It is not the first time we use the program and we tried everything).
2: Many 2.5D-brushes are not working.

ZBrush is a wonderfull program, special for (2.5d) illustrations.

Thanks.

Do you experience the same problem when you turn off multi-threading?

#3

As we said, we tried everything. To be sure we tried again with multithreading off. Rendering more big as the standard size>crash
For an illustration we need about 300 dpi, so ZBrush is useless. Maybe we could better design stamps?
If you want I can translate the screenshot I get after rendering an image.

Still curious about an answer to solve the problem. Any other users or maybe support?

Don’t be afraid, I did not knock any head. Just a door for help from support.
Again some rendertests 2.5d / 480 x 3360 / matcap white / all tests the same result with multi-threading on and off
Shadows off > no problem
Shadows on / rays 100 (no z-mode) > no problem
Shadows on / rays 100 / zmode on > crash
Shadows on / rays 40 / zmode on > teteeeeeh ok
Shadows on / rays 1 / zmode on > crash
Shadows on / rays 30 / zmode on > crash
Shadows on / rays 40 / zmode on > crash

All crashes the last part of the rendering.

Hi Bas Mazur, I have ideas on how to fix this, however I did notice from past experience that the Questions and Troubleshooting forum has very few viewers.

I know it is somewhat against the rules, but you might try posting a new thread with your crash info in the Main forum. Even though Aurick will move it as soon as he see’s it, there may be a better chance of getting a response. Sorry to hear you are having so many troubles and i wish you luck.

@Aberrant, thanks mate.
But I tried it before. This trouble-forum looks like sweeping the rubbish under the carpet :confused:
