I have a mesh with a bunch of different polygroups. when i go into subtool > split all the options are greyed out. I am in edit mode. I can manipulate the mesh, I can mask a part, have nothing masked, hide a part, unhide everything, no matter what I do all the options stay grey. I am ridiculously frustrated right now. I need to be able to split polygroups. I want to split all poly groups into separate tools later. What I am really trying to do is use insert sphere and split the sphere into a new poly group using split unmaked while everything else is masked. This usually works for me though I don’t normally have a mesh with as many polygroups as I do right now. Has anyone else encountered this? Can anyone tell me what the problem is? Thanks for the help
Do you have ZB4R6 P2?
I have no idea what is wrong with it. I tried to go into the Geometry > modify topology and my only option was make Micro mesh which was not at all what I was expecting. I took my subtool, did “make polymesh 3D” and inserted it back in and everything went back to normal for the new mesh, all poly groups preserved. I can now split it up.
No I still have 4r6 P1
Why haven’t you updated to P2? It fixes a number of issues that showed up once 4R6 was “in the wild”.
Use Zplugin >> Auto Update >> Check New Updates or browse to your ZBrush 4R6 folder and run ZUpgrader.
