ZBrush Usage Questions
#1

this is my workflow for using the zproject brush based on the Youtube tutorial:

choose flat colour material
go doc/import choose a head pic 960x720 front and side
zoom out using button
switch to fast shader
import head obj
sub divide
draw on canvas snap rot.
switch on symetry
go to edit mode and SRT it till it sits beside the front face
Zadd -0%
RGB - 100%
choose the Zproject brush.
click move.
click, for the destination then click for the source
click draw
then clone brush form one to the other
snap turn model to profile clone the side view on.

My problem is that it only sometimes works, if I create a shpere and zproject the BG image onto it, it works, If i try it on my head model nothing happens when i paint on the surface

Does anyone know what I might be doing wrong?

or is Z project broken in V3.5

BTW whats up with the BG image disapearing?

Also what with the plugins no longer working, it kinda feels more like a down grade

I’m wondering the same thing.I’m not having any trouble with the bg image disappearing but the projection just doesn’t work at all for me. I wonder if it’s a settings tweak flaw or something seriously fuddled with the code. I figured that this version is more of a kink-ironing thing for version 4. Seemed all to sudden.

Actually, it does project, I just found out, but on the other side! not to mention that I had gaps in cavity areas. Real frustrating.
