Learned more in 60 seconds then I did in the last year... damn.
exactly :(
Seriously dude, I hope Pixologic is paying you for this because you can explain their stuff better in 60 seconds than them in 60 minutes :D Keep up the good work (please).
THIS CHANGES THE GAME AND YOU CAN LEARN THE TOPOLOGY LINES FASTER
So quick and EASY! NEVER knew you could retopo this way! I have SO MANY ISSUES with that crazy zremesher tool! And manual takes a lot of time. For crunches, I'll use this. Thank you!!
Never watched so informative 1 min video in my life. You deserve A bunch of likes.
I will give you the best time saver award of the year! Take it!
I really love these short series .Top Notch information .
You're a beast man, I own several of your videos and one of the main reasons why I started using Zbrush as my go to sculpting tool and Blender as my all other things. Keep it up.
Yo Danny Love the 60 sec tuts. Hope all Is well my friend. Stay Awesome.
D3AD End thanks man! Same to you 😊
@@DannyMac3d is there a blender Equivalent of the same?
thank you, there is this other bloke ( i won't name ) with videos that are encyclopedias , this is the ideal way to present information.
This 60 s tute is gold! Thanks.
Why don't you consider the end result animation quality, whats wrong with it?
Well, "animation level" quality of topology is "neat" to its most literal and absolute level, at least in terms of industry standard.
Not a single edge loop out of place and as little of loops as possible.
You can see this on 0:50, especially on the ear and the inside of the eye, that it doesn't really follow the "motion" of the shape you would want for the final base mesh.
And you can see like twice or even three times as many edge loops overall, in places that don't really need them, across the entire face.
Like sure, you need more loops around the mouth and the eyes, and some around the nose area, but it doesn't need to be uniform across the entire mesh.
@@KRIMZONMEKANISM THANK YOU!!
Your 60 seconds knowledge is awesome !!
1 min video, clearly explains everything perfectly, thank you Danny!
Great tip. Have been looking for something like this for a long time.
I feel like my brain just exploded from knowledge and rage
I use Blender and 3D-Coat, and the amount of times I wish this was available in those programs is crazy. Looks like I need to get my hands on Zbrush!
same I also use Blender for retopo Im looking for an option for this to this day in Blender. Open to info
am i doing something wrong? when i click polygroup from paint only the eyes get new polygroup. helpp
Thank you so much. these tutorials are so informative in such a quick video no bullshit intros. you're the best.
magic....how simple to learn from u..amazing..really thanks dear❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
concise and to the point. very solid video. well done.
Thanks for some of the best and most succinct ZBrush advice out there!
So quick and easy. Thanks so much man, you saved my life forever!
If PolyPaintIT did not work for you, then here is a working method. You need to increase the intensity so that the brush clearly highlights the polygons.
RGB Intensity: 100.
Focal Shift: minus 100.
DAN these 60sec tut are awesome and greatly helpful :) keep up the good work
Why this is not level animation topology? Zremesher not good for Animation topology?
Thank you so much for these great tips!
I would like to know what "Fill your model with white" means use a white material? and what brush too use for just poainting on the sculpt, plz be slightly more informative :D
500k to 10k is not bad. Can definitely bake high to low poly for the normal map.
... I'm working on retopoing manually for my first time.... I've spent weeks and 10s of hours on what you just did in 60 seconds (I sure hope my topo animates well)
Any hopes of getting up to date versions of these? I love quick guides 🙏
which tool did you use to paint in black?
for some reason when i click polygroupit from paint nothing happens
i can totally do a nice rig with that auto topology ....but i understand why u said its good to know how to do it manually
why is it not animation ready? i think the resulting topo looks good enough?
Straight to the point. Thanks a lot!
very helpfull for figure artist
So great! Glad I found this, thank you!
Excellent wee tutorial (as ever). Thanks!
Wow, magical! Thanks Danny
Not sure what I'm doing wrong. In Sculptris Pro mode my lines arent as clear and solid as yours, and polygroupit doesn't follow what I draw on my character's head at all.
this is like a drawings of a plastic surgeon :P
Doesn't look like a lot needs to be changed to get animation friendly topology though. Awesome video, prompted me to buy Zbrush actually.
I know you wrote this comment 4 years ago but on the off-chance that you'll read this, what would be the key points that needs to be altered to make it animation friendly? Beginner here 😅
@@lyrysian have you found a way to do that in the meantime?
How do you get that clean edge loops after Zremesh the 1st time?...i did the exactly, but the result is wide different. triangles and new polygroups added around ugly edge loops.
Im following the steps exactly, leaving no gaps, and its not processing it with the new borders remeshed with different colors, what am I doing wrong?
Thank u very much, your tutorial the best!
Is there a Blender Equivalent to this?
60 second tutorial on fibermesh please !
Wow, really nice quick result. Will have to give this a go!
(couldn't seem to hear you when you said "I find 'something' helps here"... I heard it as 'Lazy Maize' and I presume you're not talking about a slobby Cob :D )
Lazy mouse*
And why is this not animation ready? It looks fine to me..
We need continues of this retopo by polygroupit ... Animation level topology also needed ! And why it not used for animation level topology
Whoa, This is neat!
If it don't work in your case try:
- turn off alpha on your brush
- change focal shift to -100
- increase resolution of your dynamesh
this comment saved my life thank you so much🤩
iM USING zBRUSH 4R8 AND THE POLYGROUP FROM POLYPAINT DOESNT WORK. IT POLYGROUPS HE BLACK LINES.
Big fan of yours 🖒
Please do video on anatomy also 🙏
Thank you very much!
great, but i have a question how much subdivision use before to paint the head and how long take to apply the polygrouplt.
asking that because i use a sphere 3d then convert and apply zremesh after add 6 subdivision and paint but just paint a circle and take for 1 minute long the process (1 minute and 30 seconds) it is normal ) after that i apply a zremesh again to polish the model but take it similar time almosy 2 minutes.
dont think its normal because my computer is recently new and components are new like threadripper 2990wx, asus prime x399. 64gb ram 3000 mhz (runing at 2133 automatic for default), ssd M.2 1tb, hdd 1tb
please help me
really cool man!
But it's bear production ready topology, why not?
This is dark magic!!! xD I wish I had the opertunity to work with zbrush!
Just curious, I never used zbrush, bu can you choose even lower poly than you show in video? example, the purple area has like, 6 polygons from inner to outer ring if you know what I mean. Can this remesh thingy make it even lower so it is like 2 polygons from inner to outer etc?
Hello!
Please, could you please tell me if the POLYGROUPIT function still works in version 2023???
I have Zbrush 2023.2.2 and this plugin doesn't work at all
i dont have the "polgroup from pen" option D:!
Oh Danny, you sound more manly and bassy than usual
really? But I figured out how to post-process my irritating voice months ago 😂
wonderful!
ooooh very crazy fantastic
Brilliant
Danny, when will you start coming live again....
Nice video though
Would be great to see what happens if you animated this mesh.
for asset this is good.
where can I find the plug in for zbrush 4r7, cant find it
HELP what can I do if I cant find polygroupit plugin? (I have zbrush zr8 p2)
is there any way to do something like that in blender 2.8?
Amzanig!!!, thanks for share
Love it! Can you do a 60 second tutorial on resolution for Dynamesh? Specifically when you start combining different subtools - I always loose the detail I've already sculpted, even at max resolution. Thanks!
stephanmaya to be honest I would just check out my tessimate video a use that instead. You can change the resolution on the fly ☺️
Where you can find this pen tool?
So fast! Thanks for tips ^_^
thank you!...
what are those lines? are thos mask or just painted by black?
It doesn´t work! I don´t know what´s grong.
i don't have this plugin, why? D:
Usefull, Thanks!
why do you say it's not for animation? looks like a good topology for animation
wish he would reply to this one Im curious
wowza!
Thanks for sharing
very Good!!!!
Don’t know why it’s not thing happen after I press poly group by poly paint in plugin
No one is out there making "animation level topology" videos
I am.
@@DannyMac3d Would that be the "How to Retopologize a head Like a Boss" 2 part video?
idk its pretty close to game ready topology so try there and modify it to your specific needs
no its very good for animation its looks like you do it manually and its the same topology of your tutorials.
man zbrush is making everything easy version by version!..
May the rest of so called tut youtubers follow your initiative! Tired of people talking for 10min to tell us soemthing they can say in 15s. Good luck to you, not that you need it!
When I use Zremesher My model disapeared
please somebody tell me whats name tools for draw masking like that
Just take standard tool. And then select only RGB and unselect the Zadd and/or the Zsub. And finally, pick up the black color. :)
I don't have Polygroupit in my plugins. Not sure why.
Only came out with zbrush 2018, maybe you have an older version?
So great!You're a dalao
Wew that threw me for a loop
👆 this guy 😄
Is this brush feature belonging to only Zbrush 2018 ?
polygroupit is a Zbrush 2018 feature, yes :)
Though also note 2018 is free to existing users. So if you already own a license of ZBrush you can download version 2018!
no entendi nada
I learned more in 1 min then I did, my whole previous life, you are so great , wow man, all of us are really impressed down here , Steve , incredible man, you're a thru .... guru , you brought civilisation to Zbrush man, You are ... Z ... brushman ! Know Thy ZBrush is from now on, Know Thy ZSteve , you -are -the -best, did I mention that you are great , huge! Steffers show them thaway, and all of that for free!.... so un-like White ?! Well, like any relegion that cares about their followers are allowed to donate , we can ? 'You are ZDevine .... ok, f cker that should hold you for a while
Why isn't this animation Level Topology?, it looks Fine to me
I think its because its to uniform and density properly spread out it doesnt put mesh density and lack of in the right places for more fluid deformers.. thats my guess.
@@rebelangel8227 looking back on this video again I noticed the forehead,Neck and cheeks have unnecessary amount of poly's hopefully there is a way in the near future to reduce the amount in those specific areas automatically.
@@gnightrow4020 im sure in the future there will be algorythms to make perfect meshes of sculpts that are animation or game ready.. but im learning to retopo now.. it really is worth learning.. and it can be a good stress releaver to to just sit there jam some music and connect the dots
I now know how to retopologize quite effectively, but the truth is that I want as much automation as possible in my life so I could get to the fun stuff sooner
@@gnightrow4020 yeah automation would be nice. but its gonna take an ai to make the human decisions when it comes to this.. but i think things will be changing in the next few years..
better than Michael Pavlovich 😂🤣🤣
