great video. this helps a lot. i am using rokoko vision now myself (for now until i can afford the suit) and this helped me understand the mechanism and process for clean up. thank you. I just need a bigger area with my webcams to get better results. then once I get the suit I might get better results and better grounded characters. :)

Please correct me if I'm missing something here, but I was trying to do this exact thing the other day and I accomplished it in what I believe was a simpler workflow. To clarify, I had only the original base mesh and single-tile 8K textures that came with it. So I did not have the original ZBrush sculpt (if you do have this, then this goes even quicker). Here's what I did: 1) Started with the original 1K basemesh in Maya, then duplicated that and added desired number of UDIMs 2) Brought 1K basemesh into ZBrush, where I applied the original polypaint and displacement detail from the single-tile maps (skip this if you already have the original ZBrush file) 3) Brought in my new UDIM basemesh and re-projected onto that from the 1K basemesh -- so now I have my UDIM model with all the original painting and sculptural detail. This (as far as I can see) eliminates the need for doing anything with polygroups or having to deal with applying UDIM maps one by one. 4) Exported all UDIM textures at once from the MultiMap exporter
@DrJasonKennedy 4 ай бұрын
If I understand you correctly, you are only using single-tile textures, correct? If so, yes, that is a much simpler workflow. What the workflow in the video addresses is when you have textures across multiple UV tiles. To my knowledge, ZBrush does not natively handle these well. Please correct me if I am mistaken. (Just saw this now, so sorry for the late reply)

I'm surprised you didn't mention using Mirror and Weld in Zbrush to fix the symmetry issue. In Zbrush go to GEOMETRY>MODIFY TOPOLOGY>MIRROR AND WELD. That does a very good job of fixing broken symmetry. Also ... once you export your re-symmed/dynamesh model over to Maya for retopology (Quad Draw) you may find that the symmetry isn't lined up properly in Maya. There seems to be a glitch between zbrush and Maya when exporting from one to the other (Zbrush to Maya) .... you can fix this by going to the Plug In palette in Zbrush>Scale Master>Center Subtools To World. Then export your dynamism to Maya and your model will be perfectly centered and ready for quad draw/retopology.

One more way zbrush doesn’t play well with other apps is this: every other app on the planet can handle uvs in the range 0-1. If you lay out uvs in Maya or Blender or whatever, you need to shrink them slightly so no uv actually has a whole number value. So a uv set from Maya going from 0-1 will be screwed up in Zbrush when it comes time to export the maps. Instead you must set the ranges to be from about 0.01-0.99 or less, within the bounds of the tile. Just another idiosyncrasy of Zbrush.

Hi @@1RNik, yes, my first thought is that it is likely system-related. What are your system specs, especially RAM and GPU? Are you running any other software at the same time? For instance, if you have Unreal or Bridge open while trying to change your setup in Maya, I would close the other software first. I haven't run into this specific issue before, so I can only speculate.

is there any plugin to do this :P
@DrJasonKennedy Жыл бұрын
If you mean a plugin that will do this whole process for you, there likely is not. What I mean by that is the process I show in this tutorial is two-fold: some of the cleanup could be replicated through automation, but there is a significant portion where I have to make my own artistic judgments, and that is not something a script can do for you. It pretty much comes down to the level of quality you wish to achieve. If you wish to create quick productions that aren't professional-level, then sure, go ahead with an automated solution. Some of Maya's own tools are better for this now than they were when I recorded this tutorial. However, if you want professional results, you have to invest professional skills and time.

Ooh that's really smart! Given the tool's standardised nature, would it be possible to MEL script an automated quick dance for basic humans, following the guide you laid out? :0
@DrJasonKennedy Жыл бұрын
Certainly, so long as the naming convention remains the same. For instance, the default left/right assignments are "l_" and "r_". However, in my version, I opt for these to be "L_" and "R_". This could potentially confuse a MEL script that is only written for the default assignments. (Although, it is conceivable someone could include an option for the most commonly used prefixes that gets around this.) Other areas of concern would be if you create a rig that has more than just the basic biped controls - for instance, a tail or tentacles. These may need to be added manually after the script completes.

Using a gradient as a mask to set your face pose symmetry is ingenious. But for complex shapes like sliding your lips left and right is tougher to mirror. Before I would have a separate compound shape as its own shape, but now I don't have to. Though the additive might need some tweaking
@DrJasonKennedy Жыл бұрын
Yes, certain shapes don't work well with that type of symmetrising. However, I sculpt the shape for one direction (say, sliding to the left), and then use a mirroring method like this to produce a symmetrical copy for the sliding right shape: studio.kzbin.infoSPmgIpMLWoM/edit

Hi Eugene, not sure what you mean by "compose" in this case. I assume you mean "composite"?
