hi guys,
I recently purchased a license of zbrush 3.12 for mac and already have it for p.c. I’m having some problems going back and forth between the two platforms and wonder if there may be some advice from anyone who has had the same issues. Below are a list of some of the things that I’m having trouble with… Oh and to answer the question “why would you want to do this?”, the answer is that I use zbrush at work on a p.c and at home, I have it on my mac laptop. I was hoping to be able to work on the laptop at home and then bring my files into work to continue them on p.c, but so far, no dice… Here are some of the issues.
-
When I try to load a ztool that I’ve worked on in my mac version of zbrush into my p.c, I get a message saying, “Error has been encountered while trying to load a tool. Loading aborted”. I was able to overcome this by exporting the file as an .obj at a low res and then a high and baking the details into it, but this seems kind of roundabout and I’m wondering if this incompatibility is just a standard problem?

For some reason, when I export my files as a .obj from my mac, zbrush is putting them out as text files? the file will say something along the lines of Monster_01.obj.txt Even when I remove the .txt ending on the file, it’s still no good and z-brush on p.c has no idea what to do with the file and doesn’t think it’s an obj.
Thank you for any help you may be able to offer and please feel free to point me to any other threads here that may have those issues being addressed. Thanks again for taking the time to read my post and for any input you may be able to offer.
