Proxy Pose ZBrush 2023.1 with ZSphere Rigging!

[@MANIAKRA]

ok this feature single handedly makes me want to get the newer versions, thanks for the walkthrough Mike

[@eiatos]

I genuinely appreciate how accessible you make this borderline esoteric software seem. I love 3D and organic sculpting in general but Zbrush's obscure toolset was always a huge wall for me.

[@SpeckyNation]

I agree. It was a few years before I really deep dived into the program, after learning about making my own custom UI, and which work flow was right for me. The default layout is unintuitive, and a lot of super useful tools are buried in menu after menu.

[@ammonn9930]

For me it was like always natural but i know many peoples feel like you.

[@Eternal_23]

borderline esoteric, couldn't say it better myself

[@michaelwilliamson3722]

If you have the $500 a year to use it. Zbrush is dead and this is just the beginning

[@Eternal_23]

@Med•Le•Carthaginois not badly, unintuitively

[@abovewongart]

this is amazing and so help full

[@illustrationmaking]

Huge than you! This is what has been doing my head in today as I was trying to follow the tutorial that cam out on the main Maxon stream, and couldn’t follow it.

[@GDragonoido]

Amazing. Every day learning something new with this huge artist

[@kiarashtamizkar3488]

[@milkbread5036]

thank you so much!!

[@tooncraft3d]

excellent! TY

[@chriswright5230]

Good lord you're good

[@andrefranzke3882]

Thank you Michael, excellent as always. 👍 What is the advantage over the workflow with Transpose Master? I find Transpose Master much easier.

[@DefneÇetin-r5l]

when i press proxy pose to final the pose it all gets distorted why is that? can you help me pls

[@GameArtsCafe]

Hi Michael, I just upgraded to 2023.2.2 used a polymesh 3D sphere to test, added high res, del lower and the proxy pose option is greyed out, any reason for this?

[@ComicsLegend]

This is great, thanks for the overview of the new feature. Btw, do you have a tutorial available to purchase on how you sculpted the Ninja Turtle?

[@SkidChill]

Is there a way to use proxy pose with a pre-existing z sphere rig?

[@amirbabaei7048]

Awesome . could you please pose a character with dress on too ?

[@hardkorvin]

How to deal with multi mesh\sabtools?

[@dawidwyborski3753]

I try to launch proxy pose and it not works.

[@sinistercraft3577]

I have the monthly version right now, I do not see this option on my selection menu. Will I get it with the full version? Or am I missing where to find it?

[@khangpham9118]

sr , but why iam lagging so much

[@Ophelia1991]

your pointer is not visible bro

[@crazylegsmurphy]

Is there a way to do with without spending $800?

[@frankschafer2049]

CG Persia

[@sanjaux]

Blender can practically do this if you use armatures and the Lodify mesh addon for posing. You essentially use a low poly mesh for the viewport and a high poly in the render which uses the same armature.

[@edboymovies]

Love the video, Mike. Maybe it's the way I sculpted my figure (in A pose), but when I rig and rotate an arm it brings a lot of the upper leg in the influence and when that happens it looks like the low poly model is chunky if that makes sense

[@MichaelPavlovich]

The leg following along you might (?) be able to fix with helper zspheres (see me making those at 11:33 to keep the torso verts from following the arm for example); the chunky part can sometimes (?) be from having the low poly actually have too many polygons, and zspheres are struggling moving the verts, and giving you a "stepped" result rather than a nice soft falloff (in which case, using a lower resolution proxy setting might help)

[@AliNihatAyar]

çok bir şey anlayamadım. seçimlerini çok hızlı geçiyorsun.

[@arsenalprime6933]

Doesnt work anymore sadly

[@combojerman28]

at the end the result it is bad. your clean an great model will be reduce in vertex size and will have a bad quality of your scultped model. this tool and method is not the greatest if you want to keep your sculpt.

[@MichaelPavlovich]

mmmm...false? not sure I follow your logic here

[@combojerman28]

@@MichaelPavlovich well i did all the steps you show us and many times and the result was bad. all my sculpt was pure in quality. i'm not saying extremely bad and unusable, but my sculpt was at least 72% decries in quality. my result doesn't look as my redefined sculpt.

[@FanAnimeOP]

My proxy pose shows gray and not clicking how can I solve this problem . please help 🙏🥲

[@MassimoSalpietro]

have the same problem, you fixed it somehow?
