Hi everybody, anyone knows if is possible to get zmapper for Mac version?
Thanks
So far no–Zmapper is only available for the PC version. You can generate Normal maps in ZB 3.12 Mac without Zmapper (please search the forum/doc for more info.)

Currently it is not possible to make working displacement maps with Zbrush 3.12 for Mac without ugly seams and artefacts. It is a known issue. I am given to believe it’s the same for normal maps too, but not texture maps.
Pixologic have confirmed this and are allegedly working on it.
It has always been my belief that Zmapper has some windows specific code or dependencies that have not had equivalents on the mac side. Explaining why in 3 years it has not been ported. I am hoping, and I think Aurick has alluded to a new solution to replace zmapper in Zb 3.5 that will be possible on both platforms.
- i have also helped confirm this theory when running zbrush on an intel based mac with Parallels. Zmapper would only work under a full… “boot camp” windows re-boot.
