ZSCRIPT: Refrence photo import :)

ZBrush Artworks
#1

Hi All!

I Whipped up a helpful little Zscript for Zbrush 2.0, it’s purpose is to make importing and using a Reference Photo a wee bit easier.

First off the script will prompt you for your reference image, after you select your image the rest is automatic.

The script will proceed and make a transparent material, flood your reference picture on the screen, and draw a reduced poly sphere on the screen… make a Polymesh out of it.

all you have to do now is mask off an area, subdivide, and start modeling!

This Zscript will work with any image… Try to keep the size square (128x128…512x512 etc.) for best results…

HINT:
If you don’t want to use the sphere, just press escape after the flood fill, and insert your own mesh, Zsphere, or whatever…

Have fun! And be sure to wear your safety goggles :slight_smile:

Hi Boozie

To make the Zscript compatible with 1.55b you just have to change one line in the Zscript…

you have to change the line :

[IKeyPress,13,[IReset,2.0]]

you have to change it to:

[IKeyPress,13,[IReset,1.55b]]

it is right at the top of the Zscript…

Hope this works, I did not use any of the new features realy…

Check with other Zscripts, it might be 1.5 or 1.55 or 1.55b… I dont have my default Zscripts any more, or I would just fix it myself…

Here is a quick rendering I did…

I am going to add more to this later on after I cook dinner…

I might just start over and try makeing a Polar bear again.

have a good one, and thanks for looking :slight_smile:
