i am using image plane 3.1 with zbrush 3.1. each time i try to pick up the texture in projection master the tool goes back to the original chosen material. ie no image on the tool.
I feel so stupid asking, but surely there’s something i am not doing.
Is it something to do with the rgb or mrgb , or should i select a brush?
please help its driving me nuts and has been for months.

MrGeebs: WOrking with textures on subtools is a bit of a hassle in zbrush since you can really only have 1 active texture at a time. The PolyPpainting method can get around this, because you are coloring the actual polygons rather than a texture wrapped around em. After you get it painted you can convert the Poly colors to a texture.

It’s also possible to merge your subtools into a single object so that you can’t polypaint the entire thing at once, then you can unmerge your objects to get your original subtools back. when I get time for more tutorials I will demonstrate this.

hey Vlad, great vids.

I have a question though…for subtools, how would this work out?

Seems like the texture is applied to all of the subtools, and the shading off of the other subtools are non-existant when using Material Baker.
Any help or insight would be great. Thanks
