Zapplink saving?

ZBrush Usage Questions
#1

Hey there;

I was trying out Zbrush, I’m a total beginner.

My question is how do I keep the colours/texture that I made in Zapplink after I close Zbrush? (I believe the PSD gets deleted?)

My problem is that when I re-opened ZB the painted texture from Photoshop wasn’t there.

Here’s the steps I took:

Create model
Zapplink > Photoshop
Save (Am I saving it wrong?)
Close ZB

Open ZB
Load tool
-> No painted texture.

I’m seriously missing something small hehe.

Anyone?

Before closing ZBrush, save your ZTL. Tool>Save As. You’ll be asked if you wish to save the texture as well. (If a texture is applied to the model, that is.) This saves the texture with the model as part of the ZTL format.

Alternatively, before closing ZBrush you can also select the texture in the Texture palette and then choose Texture>Save As. When you load the model in another session, you’ll also have to import the texture again.
