spotlight to mask - Answered.

ZBrush Usage Questions
#1

is there a way to lineup a image with spotlight over your model, then save that out as a mask?
this way i can come back to the mask later and not have to lineup the spotlight again

thanks

#2

If you save the Spotlight then the position of the images is saved. If you save the model as a project (Save As in the File palette) then the model position will be saved.

#3

thanks Marcus I didnt know that.
It would be great to somehow be able to conver the spotlight image to a mask so i can spin the model around and sculpt while masked.

#4

You could convert your texture to an Alpha then make it a Stencil.

NOTE: The above link for Stencil is broken. Use this one instead. (edited on March 5, 2022)

I know there is a way to paint a mask directly from the spotlight texture. I’ve done it before, but I can’t remember. I’m struggling with the same thing right now.
