crap im still trying to get my head around zbrush 2

mastone 31-07-2010 10:46 AM

don't even try, when I started with Zbrush 1.55 through 2 I didn't like the package at all, it became the package I love when 2.5 came out, I am now working with 3.5 and it has improved significantly, so just upgrade to the latest version trust me:beer:

just got it, started playing a bit with it but i dont remember how i got the plugins to work with 3.5r3

been reading all the stuff that's new and getting distracted trying out random new brushes on spheres

nothing to show yet..

You got it running ?
I got some funky PHP errors when I tried to activate :angery:
Still waiting for my key :(, but they are probably very busy at the moment so I will be patient ;)

Chirone 12-08-2010 09:14 PM

yeah, first time i downloaded it, it didn't work, the file wasn't complete
so i downloaded it again and when it came to activating i was taken to the webpage and had to try a few times
clicking back and refreshing a bit
i entered my details and clicked next and it errored
then i clicked back and did it again and it worked
then i clicked the next button to get the activation key and it errored...
then i clicked back and it resent info and then i got the key :D

maybe it worked for me almost the first time because there weren't as many people trying to activate it since most of the users were probably asleep at the time

Ok mastone.....I cant afford the Zbrush....is it better than mudbox??? Seeing I cant afford the $600 bucks (probably US) which is aroun $750 AUS what does it do for you?? Honest unbiased opinion (as I know you would).

The only thing I have at the moment to do ANY sculpting is Maya itself or Sculptris (free). I have NO idea how to use Sculptris...I have made a few mutant spheres and the odd landscape.

Anyway Zbrush or Mudbox??? huh? hmm? huh? LOL seriously though.

cheers bullet

They both pretty much do the same, though I feel Z has the edge on the feature front. Mud is easier to pick up as its closer to Maya. (and you can get it in autodesks entertainment pack with Maya, max, Motionbuilder, Toxic and matchmover and XSI (I think))

bullet1968 17-08-2010 11:16 AM

Thanks gster...I will check that out, more bang for the buck?

cheers bullet

sounded good steve..the price was US (ups**t)! $1125 AUS....Zbrush has the edge. Still a lot of money.

Oh well I shall but dream.

You never have to pay for an upgrade though! (or you haven so far!)

bullet1968 17-08-2010 11:33 AM

LOL true mate BUT Im sure my darling wife would soon upgrade my bed to the back shed if I spent that LOL, that is something I would KNOW happen.

cheers bullet

Chirone 17-08-2010 09:20 PM

that too is a free upgrade!

i've touched mudbox once, but not for long or seriously

zbrush is a lot different to normal apps, different concepts on the menu bar at the top
but i get the feeling if you really get into it it'll be super fast

there's a hotkey combination for EVERYTHING

bullet1968 17-08-2010 09:33 PM

The price is the stopper on both counts, unless I can get a previous version cheaper?

cheers bullet

mastone 17-08-2010 10:00 PM

try Sculptris, I believe it's free ( pixologic recently bought it)

Then you can get to grips with sculpting.

I have mudbox and ZBrush and tbh I like Zbrush a lot better, especially because they are not affraid to do their own thing.
