Hey man can you help me ?

My problem is that when i press GoZ from ZBrush it opens the 3ds max and when it loads it's all empty and the actual model isn't there to see.

Please help me :)

@WildAndLoveD Ooooh, that IS a headache. It actually can be from a few things. I have notied that GOz is a tad buddy still, but some easy ways to work around this do exist.. firstly be aware of naming conventions, that has a lot to do with it, also, it depends on how many times you have loaded the model back and forth, that can sometimes lead to an empty scene... another issue could be the mesh itself... but the main culprit is probably naming conventions.

@Tkwk33 hit X on the keyboard.

do we have to bye both zbrush 4 and 3ds max to be able to do this?

[Screenwriter805]

@jtmcmahon586 You have to buy ZB4 at the very least. 3ds MAX is more for modeling and animation, etc.. but if you are working for a 3d company, chances are you will either need MAX or Maya in addition to ZB4, unless you are only required to do static work, in which case, ZB4 only is doable, but still not very likely.

@jtmcmahon586 oh and i don't suggest that you follow that other guys suggestion. I don't condone piracy. He's now blocked, lol.

This tut killed me right from the start. I couldn't even "drag and drop" the zsphere. Nothing showed up in the work space. Hope it's easier on others. Will check back when I study some more rudimentary tuts :))

@Bubbbla97 It's supposed you have to. But who buys software on the Internet nowadays? LoL...

Although the official zBrush site offers a Trial of the program... if you want to fully try it, you should better download a full version and patch it.

You'll not have the zBrush free assistance service... but you'll have the full version for free LoL.

I hope not go to to jail just for saying this. -__-
