It allows for some fantastic new shapes to be sketched and eases the creation of highly complex surfaces. Think of this as a brush that uses a vector displacement map in place of an alpha. This works by generating a vector displacement of the mesh and storing this in a custom brush.
This allows complex organic forms, including those with overlapping parts and backfaces, to be stored as brushes for use on other meshes. One new feature that is particularly exciting is the Vector Displacement Mesh. The Vector Displacement Mesh brushes in action This is very helpful for large models in which you may have a large variety of related tools (such as teeth, armour plates or claws) that you want to keep separate but would like to collapse in the display as to not crowd the SubTool menu. One wonderful aspect of the Boolean toolset is the ability to group SubTools into subgroups now. These Booleans are achieved through a rendering and display mode so they remain fully live and editable until the user chooses to collapse them into a final object, which will retain a highly workable topology.īooleans in ZBrush can be used with polymeshes, primitives, ArrayMeshes, and even NanoMeshes. Even noisemaker will be factored into the Booleans.Īny SubTools can be set to add, subtract, union or difference in any order effectively allowing for highly complex forms. The Boolean operators will respect poly meshes, primitives, NanoMeshes and Arrays. These Booleans are fast and fully editable until you choose to collapse them into new geometry. The Boolean toolset enables the creation of complex shapes with unprecedented ease and speed using traditional Boolean operations.
These updates offer something to excite any user with new possibilities and smoother workflows. These additions provide a traditional method of moving SubTools in the world space and a powerful alternative to the Transpose tools. The gizmo and deformers will even respect masking across SubTools. You can now easily set the object centre, move multiple SubTools at once and even utilise a variety of deformers to further manipulate the shape of your objects. The new gizmo moves, scales and rotates objects in the ZBrush window.
The most notable of these must be the inclusion of the long requested gizmo for object manipulation and a suite of deformers that respect the simultaneous manipulation of multiple SubTools.
