Okay that didnt last long!
Got into a good photography course at Charles Sturt Uni, should be good fun!
Still trying to get this all refined, not sure about the likeness but i have alot of time to kill working on this.

I like the look of this now mate, looks like you need to rework the mouth area a bit, why not drop the mesh down to zero and back to maya for a tweak and save a morph target in Zb and then reimport the tweak and switch it, it should still keep the changes youve done in zb too

That was exactly my plan!
One question though, there is a problem with the mesh that i accidentally made on the nose, if i stitch together two polygons will the import still work?
Its not major if it wont, but i thought it needed to be the same Polygon count as the z brush one.

whoa! awesome disease!
maybe the humans finally realised that violence isn't the way and that toxins are :p

did that happen after you reattached a new nose?

perhaps the vertex order suddenly got jumbled up between exports?
(from what i've been told and seen it's the vertex order that matters as well as the polycount)

Probably a silly question but what exactly is the vertex order?

Basically each vertex is assigned a number...
e.g. vertices 8 and 12 are connected.

Obviously if you insert/merge/delete any vertices, then 8 and 12 might not be what they were originally.

Simplistic explanation, but hope it helps?

i can't remember which option but when you export and/or import objs that are used between zb and maya there's something you need to untick

might be the groups option

Hello fellows! Unfortunatly i have run into a bit of trouble and the prospect of me finishing this is looking grim user added image
I currently have 10 dollars in my wallet and have been mooching of my girlfriends family due to a big stuff up by Centerlink giving me my student payments. All my stuff is across the country and i cant get it here untill i get money so it might be a while before i get acess to a proper computer. Hopefully it works out soon though.
Toodles All

Ill be right hopefully. Turns out the government basically lied to me about what forms i needed to bring in but after some ranting and raving they finally will fix it. Still means another week without money.
