Thank You PIXOLOGIC Team for your hard work !!!!

Thanks for the update. I'm installing now and can't wait to dig in and start trying out all the new features. I'm also glad to hear you guys have done some work in the remeshing department. With remeshing being an important part of the sculpting process for a lot of artist, it's interesting to see that the new tools will NOT be a standardized option in ZBrush's toolset. Hopefully Verold's plugin will blow our minds and be worth it's weight in gold. I also hope they will keep with the tradition that Pixologic has established with providing an extremely powerful toolset at a highly competitve price point.

Thanks again guys,

Godspeed

i tested the update and apprantly, there is still one same bug that was not fixed : AO didn't work when i use flat color mat.... unlike zbrush 4 did work ^^;

Very smooth upgrade for me.

I don't have the time to really get into fiber mesh at the moment, but I did some quick tests and I really like what I see. I've exported the fibers as an obj to render in another package and can see that this will be very useful for my illustration needs.

Here's my question: is there a way to create a uv from root to tip so you can map hair transparency maps on the thicker fiber/poly sheets? UV master really doesn't give me the UV's I need and I was hoping that you could "grow" uv maps while growing the hair.

Hello

yes click on the FiberUV in the UV Map sub-palette. This will allow you to apply one texture to your fibers.

In order to get rendering on a flat material select a basic material and move the ambient all the way to 100 and turn off diffuse and specular. you will have the same result that you are looking for.
