Sooo I had an opportunity to play with z-brush. Since it's a new program for me, I MAY be doing something wrong, coz this is what happens: The head of the character is inverted. And not JUST inverted vertices. It x-flattens the head at a setting of 0.5 then when the morph is applied at 1 it is inside out :o( Is that normal for Z-brush or have I messed up? I was told it was good for Poser Morphs.. now I don't know what to say *LOL*

What was the Morph suppose to do Originally? I have done many morphs with Z Brush with no Ill effect.. http://www.3dcommune.com/3d/store/more_info.mv?P1074333664 Maybe you try to have the morph do to much? If you want to change the whole face.First do one for the chin then another for the brow then another for the cheeks and so on....Don't do one to change the whole face at once..

Ah my post DID eventually post.. here's the rest then: Here's the morph at 1.0

And the full morph rendered. I've done full morphs in Max lots of times with no ill effects :o) So I guess I've done something wrong - perhaps something with the symmetry? I'm bright green with ZBrush :o)

That is the infamous "face reversal" problem that is inherent in ZBrush. What happens is that the morph flips the points from one side to the other. There are a few ways around it ... (1) ZBrush has a script that fixes the problem. See the attached thread for more info. (2) You can re-import the morphed head back into ZBrush and then resave it again. That will save the morph you already did. Or (3) To get around using the script, and for doing multiple morphs of the same body part (such as the head), import the body part into ZBrush and save out the "reversed" head BEFORE you do any morphs. Then import the reversed head for any morphs that you do later on.

or you can use Zbrush v 1.23b which didn't have this problem. Hopefully this will be fixed in V2 - released 31st march - saving my pennies(got 63p so far lol).

Thanks, Deecey :o) That sounds like an easy fix... If I can find that button to import again L How can ANYBODY find their way around that interface?! O.o

It sure is different isn't it?! LOLOL

There is a Z script for free downlaod that exports the obj's properly. Just reimport obj and export again and it will flip it back.

NEW The Poser FaceInterMixer

Will current users get the update for free? I've been with ZBrush since the first beta. Marque

Ahh yes, just found out we do. What a great company!!! Marque

I believe so, Marque ... at least, according to the press release about the impending release, it says that all registered users will get a free update! I think that is VERY generous of them!!! 8-)
