so Projection master crashes for me too...

ZBrush Usage Questions
#1

Hello all,

Well I’ve got a problem and I was hoping someone can help me. Suddenly PM has started to crash zbrush every time I try and pick up my model from it. it’s rather odd because it was working fine before, no probs.
I have checked my UVs and cleaned them up. And when I do an UV check there are no red areas, so I don’t think that’s the problem.
But I have no idea what else could be the problem, because I am still kinda new to Zbrush.

I don’t think it’s my system either it’s brand new, and has a quad core and 4 gigs of memory.

So I’d appreciate it if anyone has got an idea and can help me out here. :smiley:

Thanks

If it was working before and is not working now, the thing to start asking yourself is what has changed between then and now. Have you installed any plugins? If so, try disabling them at startup by double-clicking to launch ZBrush and then immediately holding Shift until the startup screen appears. If the problem goes away after that, a plugin is to blame. Also, have you made any modifications to the ZData folders? Those should never be changed as doing so can cause program instability.

The problem might not be ZBrush either. Be sure to run scans for viruses and spyware. Try disabling all background apps prior to launching ZBrush.

Hey Aurick,

Nah man man it just stopped working like minutes after I last used it. I didn’t install anything or changed much on the model even. Restarting and turning of all other apps didn’t work either :/. Been trying again and again, it bugs me because I really want to use that decobrush in projection master.
Hm maybe re-install Zbrush?

#4

is it just that model or does it happen with the default zbrush models as well?

#5

It only happens with this specific model and only when I use the decobrush…

I can simulate the effect of the decobrush with the slashbrush and no alpha selected. But still, I want to be able to use the decobrush in PM it’s much smoother imo.

Thanks
