White pixels after dividing

Other then smoothing, how else can I get the white pixels out that appear after dividing a tool, after making some changes to it at a lower subdivision level.
I have been smoothing out but they just wont go away, it there a better option. I am fairly new. :confused:

Well, sounds like your material changed partially.
A simple fill on the MRGB hopefully will fix that.

You’re absolutely right, after I applied some of the material back on, the pixels dissipated. Although, now I have another issue. It’s much worse and I am afraid permanent as well. My ztool froze my Zbrush session. Now I find that both the recovered file cannot be opened nor can the previous save which is crazy. This ztool took me quite some time to create so I feel rather empty at the moment.
I understand that there can be an issue restoring the recovered file, but why is my last save also corrupt? Here is the message when I try to load it: Error while reading m_pLinksFaceList Object:
and then is says to email Pixologic with this issue.
Is there any possible way to get this properly loaded? Sadly now I can only recover the document of that piece…

Hey there,

yep Revel is right. ZB tends to display those artifacts, when you changed the material on a lower subdiv. Simply hit ā€œMā€ and go to Top Menu/Color/Fill object. That should do the trick.

Hope that helps.

That’s weird, I never had a problem like that before.
How big the file? (size, poly counts, etc)…Did you try to load that ztool at another computer?..is it only with that model your ZBrush crash upon loading tool?

What I can think of right now is the problem cause by the amount of poly that you have on that model and your machine can’t handle that much, I don’t think that has to do with your previous problem, but I could be wrong.

Probably you could zip your ztool and upload it somewhere, so that we can try to open it and see if can load or not.

Nice, zipping it is a great idea. Well it’s smaller then other tools I’m working with, so it’s not an issue of size necessarily. The file itself is under 200.
After turned into a RAR it still is 128 mb, so I’m not sure how I can get it over to you.
