zproject errors

i have used the steps from eat 3d tutorial to texturing my model with zproject:load an image in the canvas - blace your model on the right side-use the zproject brush-use move and draw the transpode widged line from your modl to your image go to edit and paint.
it doesn t work!
it only projects the image on my model if i place the model over the image!
is it a bug? i realy like the projection idea and wount use my mudbox for this.
any idea?its a pain in the a…!:laughing:small_orange_diamond:angry:small_orange_diamond:laughing:small_orange_diamond:angry:
every time i use a zbrush tutorial (and i use a lot of them) 50% isn`t working.sorry 4bad english!

Currently there are two kinds of project with zproject brush.

Color from the background and shape from subtools. There are two tutorials here that should help clarify the two techniques for using the zproject brush:

http://www.pixologic.com/docs/index.php/Tutorial:ZProject_Texturing
http://www.pixologic.com/docs/index.php/Tutorial:ZProject_and_SubTools

Another example here:
http://www.pixologic.com/docs/index.php/Tutorial:ZProject_Bas-Relief

There is more doc linked here: http://www.pixologic.com/docs/index.php/ZProject_Brush

Hopefully, these might help with your use of Zproject brush.

i know about those tutorials and up until today used that method for all my texturing .zproject brush doesnt seem to work anymore

I am also not able to get it to work.

Works fine in 3.1, but 3.5 it is not working. I wonder if the problem might be that when you switch to Move to get your action line the brush type changes to “Transpose”, where as in 3.1 the brush type remains the same.

You are not alone with this problem. I hope someone comes up with a solution soon. So frustrating.
