Hi. I’m new to ZBrush and the forums. I was looking for some beginner tutorials, and found this. However, none of the links seem to work. I went to both the .net and .com sites, and every lesson I click on, it just says Internet Explorer cannot display the web page.
I must have missed something, because everyone else here seems to be able to access them.

:smiley:
Your tutorials are very easy to follow which is great as I have just recently started doing 3d modeling and I will recommend them to all the beginners out there.

I have also finally finished watching all the tutorials from 1-13 and based on what I learned from them I have started working on thish model. It’s still a WIP. :slight_smile:

Hey Jason. I’m really interested in that lighting tutorial, but when I try to D/L, it asks me for a password. What’s the deal? Are you closed for Labor Day weekend hehe…?

password at the binning of thread

canian is that your very first figure based on the lessons?
Because wow nice job for a character made with Zspheres and topo clothing if that is your first. Tuesday I start some new students inside the classroom on these videos So I’ll get to see how they stack up and where students get lost.

Jesse that is in que to my veoh but veoh is slow on the que and its number 3 in line to be uploaded. Its on my site but I had to make it subscription only on my site the bandwith was just way to insane. 2 TBs last month. The server has been donated but ya anything over 2 TBS and there is a sur charge from the host. Veohs been taking up the slack but its slow uploading. Just to give you an idea that light video actually was released a week ago to my members

Nevermind my last post. Found everything on Veoh.
Just finished lesson 1.
Awesome, Jason. Thanks for the Pro Bono lessons.

[color=Black]canian is that your very first figure based on the lessons?

Yes it’s my first one and thanks for the kind words :smiley: .
Up until now I’ve only tested the different tools to see how they function so
this really is my first actual model that I’ve started making.

In the lesson where you make the displacement map you use the DSubPix value of four and so did I. The problem is that though you said its well worth the time it takes to generate map it just takes too long on my machine.
It took me about 2 1/2 hours for the program to generate the map.

So the question is what is the best DSubPix -value? Is it based on the polycount of my model? Lets say I have a model that has 2 million polys. Is a DSubPix -value of 2 enough for that model or is it always best to use the value of 4?

(I hope it was called DSubPix. I have a lousy memory :stuck_out_tongue: )

The subpix value just analyzes the difference between lvl 1 and say lvl 8 on a
(8 level monster) in that if you have too much change between lvl 1 and 8 it will take FOREVER.

But sub pix 4 scans the whole model for detail.

Adaptive only works better in just the areas that have detail.

I really dont want Zbrush saying “hey look, detail, lets work better in this area”

But you are right somtimes the model is just to big for a lvl 4 scan.

So thats where you have to ask yourself is there skin pores all over the model?
(then wait for a subpix4)

If there is only high detail in the head
(then adaptive)

At least thats how I look at it and its worked for me so far
I would not do a lvl 2 scan they always lack detail.

Either adaptive or 4;)

hope that helps

Hey there Jason. Been trying to buy some of your Zbrush Vids.

I am registerd and have downloaded many of your free vids :+1: .

After I log in and track you Vid down I click on the purchase link I get a another purchase log in screen.

I try to log in it just gives me a “Invalid username and/or password, please try again.” message.

Ive tryed a couple of times now and cant seem to get it to work. What am I doin wrong? :o

I would’nt be asking, but I cant seem to find a support link at VEOH?

BTW: Great fun in your tuts :smiley:

:slight_smile: Thank you for the answer.

…At least thats how I look at it and its worked for me so far…

I understand that you’ve been doing 3d modeling for quite some time so I bet your way of doing things will work for me too. :smiley:
