ZBrush 4R7: Released!

@jbmonge–The license file on PC actually needed to be changed to .zlic, not .lic. Perhaps it’s the same for Mac?

I’m loving the dynamic subdivision for the hard surface stuff. The dynamic bevel & chamfer are great but one thing that I’d love to see added is the ability to have the bevel/chamfer settings only effect creased edges or possibly some other way to select which edges get effected. The image below shows what I mean.

check your thread:

Finally received all links to download Keyshot.

I just want to thank everyone on the forums for all their knowledge. I don’t think I could have gotten everything installed without the community here.

I hope everyone gets up and running very soon!

Thanks Again!!!

Yes thanks SwampGhost and Fishjelly i have find that too on an other post and the .zlic works well on mac too.
There just one thing, why when i downloaded the licence there is no .lic or .Zlic after the name that is really weird.
otherwise that work well no so i just need to find a good tuto for understand how works keyshot and discover all the possibilities of this incredible bridge and soft>
MANY THANKS GUYS !!best

Congrats, blkbrd and jbmonge. :slight_smile:

I’m glad y’all are up and running with KS.

Maybe the rest of us will be, too, soon.

(Just so you know, that hurt a little. I know, I’m a terrible selfish person.) :wink:

Im still in the same boat bought Keyshot on Friday got a email yesterday saying it would be settled nothing yet so I sent another email…Nothing yet…Hopefully soon

Like someone said, maybe tomorrow when the store opens again. :slight_smile:

It really is nice to see that some are getting going w/Keyshot and ZB. At least the bridge works.

And the rest of us can experience some more anticipation. :wink:

If my joking offends anyone, I’m sorry. It’s just something that happens.

It’d be cool to see test renders.

Looking to see if anyone else experiencing same problem.

  1. Finaly received all links ( thank you support)
  2. Downloaded and installed Zbrush version of KeyShot ( it opens, it works…I think)
  3. Download license file (tucked away nicely)
  4. Open Zbrush(all are 64 bit). make sure path in goz to Zbrush keyshot is correct.
    Open cylinder, make 3d ,hit goz…nothing. The screen blinks for a fraction of a second and nothing.
    No request for license, no error message, no welcome, no hot cocoa…nothing.

So near, yet so far.
Thank you to anyone

Another little probleme to discuss. When I try to load a texture in ZB64 bit ou 32) the import button flashes and it is impossible to do anything you can just quit ZB. however zbrush seem well loading the texture and not be completly freezing because it continue to make quicksave. And on this quicksave the texture is loaded on my mesh.
someone has already had this problem ???

bicc39, your misery is self-imposed.

This thread is not for GoZ. Just 4r7, Bridge and Keyshot.

Did you buy the Bridge? There is no other way to access Keyshot for Zbrush.

You should have 3 downloads; ZB 4r7, Keyshot 5 for Zbrush, and the Zbrush Bridge.

GoZ does not enter into this equation. Check your purchase receipts to make sure you bought both the Bridge and Keyshot for $249.00

same things with 32bit and 64

Other guys have the same issue when they try to load a texturemap in ZB
? in my case the problems seems concern all the import action.

Kutay-Cengil I have the same problem than you on my machine.
just in case my spec : i run a mac Pro 2X 2,4 GHZ quad core with 64gig of ram and AMD Radeon HD 7950 3072 MB

hi friends, i have a little problem and maybe someone else is experiencing it:

my Load and Import buttons are not working, yes(o: , both 32 and 64 bit
Load Tool, Import model, import texture even import ui colors,
when i click i can choose the obj, ma, jpg whatever and then import buttons starts flashing black and white forever eventually i need to close zbrush. I tried with all kind of objects and textures, heavy, light, obj, ma,jpg

I know you are all extruding shamelessly now (o: but any ideas?
Thanks

works well for me

Macbook Pro 2011
OsX 10.10.2

I’m still having some trouble, I hope someone can help. I purchased the bundle and finally received the links. One was for a license file, the other for the bridge. I never received anything that indicated a link to the actual keyshot for zbrush program. So I followed the instructions and downloaded from the links. When I tried to open the keyshot installer, it tells me that keyshot is not present. I assume that what is happening is that the bridge is trying to install, but there is no actual keyshot yet. I may be missing something. Can anyone point me in the right direction?

You don’t need to use goZ. Instead go to the render tab and go to where it says external renderer. In there click the button that says Keyshot. Now every time you hit the BPR button it sends your scene over to Keyshot. The first time you do this you will be asked for your Keyshot bridge licence so you just click install licence and locate the file on your computer.

Hope this helps.

That gets me going in the right direction, so thank you. The license seems to have installed, but zbrush quits every time I try to render in keyshot. So frustrated. :frowning:

I am having a blast with the new tools. Currently hopping around the zModeler brush
and I’m looking for a normal edge split…

This I would assume was implemented right after extrude as one of the first functions. Are nGons not supported due to zBrush handling quads and tris normally? That could explain why you can’t cut in the middle of a poly, but from a vert to another?
What forum do we post these questions btw? I assume it is not supposed to be in this thread.
