i’m creating a texture in zbrush using 2.5 canvas and using ztools to drop to canvas…i’ve used this method before, but for some reason my file size is huge this time…5 gb! my other files i’ve done doing this way are only 200mb.
cant figure out why this one is soooo huge.
…is it saving all of the 3dmeshes with it? when i click on the tool icon under 3dmeshes i see alot of my ztools listed in there…i’m assuming this is the cause…but how do i delete them from it??
any ideas? causes?
Make sure to clear your history, and any unneeded tools as they will get saved to the project too. If you’re just dropping them to the document, you may want to run Decimation Master on them as well to further reduce the size.
To get rid of them, personally I’d save out the individual ztools that I’d want, and then create a new project and load them in.
where do you clear history and ztools from a project?
didn’t realize that it saved all loaded ztools with the project…i see the problem now…was having issues when i switched to 2.5 brushes and then wanted to go back and drop more tools, they were behaving as brushes so i would load the tool again and it would be fine…not realizing its saving another instance of the ztool.
so just saving the document and loading in ztools instead. will probably save out a new project with just my set of tools i’m using…just need to remember that for next time…
