***** ZBrush 2 Practical Guide *****

stepanhajek - There is more help and tutorials available on this site and in the FREE guides than any other software I have ever dealt with. It is nearly impossible to find a question for which there is not an answer either in the guides or on this site. As I understand it this guide is mostly contributions by ZBrush users and the way to get a glossary would be for someone to compile it and donate it to the community. Maybe you have the time? The help file in the program covers most things and combined with everything else available you would never have to buy any learning materials as you do with other less powerfull and more expensive software. Happy ZBrushing.

:confused: Well, the practical guide that I received with the software in book form is the same as the one here. Considering the $400+ I paid for the software, I don’t think an index is a bad request. The forum is great, yes. As far my compiling info and creating an index for the book, haven’t I spent enough resources in earning the cash to purchase? Just saying.

Be happy you got a manual in printed form.
I bought and paid for many more expensive software packages with just a stinking PDF manual.
This is definitely a step up.

thanks to zbrush team
muchas grachias

Dankies!

This forum rocks, theres so much info and has the best artists and best results.

Well, apparently, my original intent of suggesting an index for the manual was lost in a sea of Yay Zbrush Central! So, have fun sifting through the forum to find your answers. I had hoped to possibly influence someone on the actual software development side to just elaborate on the main guide, but it seems everyone else is completely happy reading posts. Enough said then.

stefanhajek, I understand your sentiment. I think that there is no index because there is no manual…Yet. But a reference manual would indeed be nice. Maybe there will be one after v.2.5 is released?

Maybe the moderator could build a Feature/Command reference index here on the forum in the resource area.

But for those of us who like to read reference manuals, we just have to get used to the built-in help, the quicklinks here on the forum and the practical guide. (which is really just a tutorial manual). At least for now. :wink:

Well, I guess I just misunderstood in thinking that since the Practical Guide came bundled with the software that it was considered to be the User’s Manual for the most part. I guess I should be patient in knowing that this software is somewhat in its infancy and that somewhere down the line everything will be developed further, including an official user’s manual. I am impressed with ZBrush Central and its dedicated members. I’m sure there’s only good things to come.

Many thanks!!!

You need to install Acrobat Reader before your computer can read a PDF. It’s free, and can be gotten at www.acrobat.com
