With Equidistant Inset you can inset a single polygon or region of polygons and all newly created topology will be equidistant from the existing topology. Not only can you extrude an edge to snap to the adjacent face but you can enable SnapToSurface to allow the new edges to snap to an underlying surface. The new Edge Extrude feature gives you the ability to build with one edge, multiple edges, complete edge loops and/or polyloops – with interactive edge snapping. It’s never been easier to build a plane up into what you imagine or construct a completely new piece of geometry that fits into an existing sculpt. New functions have been added to the already powerful ZModeler brush system. In addition, a new Optimal option for smart management of multithreading will always maintain the right amount of threads ZBrush needs with your system for the best performance.

Speed has increased across all sectors, including faster response time with high polygon models, increased DynaMesh speed and much more. We revisited the systems behind the sculpting brushes along with many other popular features. Even select a piece of armor to create repeatable chainmail.Įven more performance enhancements have now been added to ZBrush. Select from the library of presets to make a surface look like canvas or denim jeans. This feature is now taken a step further by allowing you to add an adjustable thickness to any single piece of planar geometry.Ī piece of geometry can also be added to each polygon as a completely interactive instance. ClothPinchTrails will create a seam with pinched cloth wherever your brush stroke takes place on the surface.ĭynamic Subdiv provides a working preview of your subdivision levels without actually increasing the base polygon count. GIF The ClothTwister brush simulates twisted cloth. As examples, you can choose where folds will lay or simply grab the geometry to move it freely in the work space and create folds in real-time. Special brushes have been introduced which use the Dynamics engine to give unique capabilities for interacting with the cloth surface. Place your mesh, turn on the collision volume and any desired controls, then watch as ZBrush drapes the cloth mesh over any other visible meshes. Create realistic cloth folds - even on a low resolution plane. Use masking to pin a portion of the mesh to create a point of interest or use a mask to create a unique interaction that can allow the surface to be rolled on itself. Enhance your sculpting with a Dynamics system that allows any surface to be contracted, expanded, inflated or draped with gravity.
