Recreating a 3.0 brush

ZBrush Usage Questions
#1

So i have this question, on the 3.0 release, one of the new brush was rake smooth, but as of 3.1, it’s not there anymore, but the rake brush is still there. However, the rake is a volumizer and not a smooth brush.
I’m wondering if anyone here (or someone from pixologic… if im lucky) would be able to tell me how i would be able to recreate the rake smooth in 3.1, i thought that setting was wonderful to quickly smooth out surfaces (i tend to work a lot with claytubes, so surface gets uneven fairly fast.)

Thanks!

I am new here, and to ZBrush… but I remember just reading that the reason there is no rake smooth brush is because now you just press shift while using the rake brush to smooth. Hope that helps…

Since you obviously use the rake brush, I was wondering if you could share some of your technique for it. I don’t really understand what it’s for and it doesn’t seem to be described in the wiki. Thanks.

I converted the Rapid Brush set from ZB 3.0 a while back. Just unzip and put the ones you want to use in your ZStartup\BrushPresets folder. They will then be available every ZB session.
