Zbrush -> Maya displacement scale correlation.

ZBrush Usage Questions
#1

Hi All,
I’ve finished my sculpting texturing and application of the displacement map in zbrush. All looks good.

I goZ it over to maya and hit render (software) and the displacement blows out completely. I try mental-ray and it blows out significantly but only so the model is puffy. I’d like it to work precisely how it is in zbrush, but i’m not sure the scale settings I’m supposed to use so the displacement in Maya is identical to that in zbrush.
I’ve also tried exporting via export, but that isn’t any better.

any help appreciated.

goZ from Zbrush to Maya, Zbrush does all the hard work for you, all you have to do is render in Maya using mental ray. However if you scale the model in Maya then the displacement will not work. If you would like to scale the model then you will need to use an expression in Maya and you will be able scale your model. Hope this helps.
