zbrush texturing question
looking for some help from a zbrush user.
When I polypaint and then convert this to a texture, the texture itself comes out with distortion and areas of strething. You can see it happen as soon as I convert it.
The uvs are laid out pretty well - and I thought that one of the advantages of doind this in zbrush was that it would avoid distortion?
I should add, I'm not talking about lack of detail due to polycount or anything - it's actually like areas are distorting, as if you had made a map and then moved the uvs around.
cheers

What I like to do is to not UV at all, sculpt the model than take the levle 1 out and UV that and swap it over using a morph, that was any small changes in hte UV/vertex postition that may occour when sculpting are taken into acount, this may be your problem if if its a heavily sculpted mesh
