A Quick And Easy Way To CREATE HAIR In ZBrush 

Hi Follygon , can you send me this ui customize zbrush please ?

yeah when you draw the curve with dynamesh on, it's gonna have only one polygroup and that's why frame mesh doesn't work. easy fix for this is just to turn dynamesh off before drawing the curve. hope this helps!

The problem I have with the frame feature is that the model have other lines and I draw hair in unwanted places

@@maikymadnesskreation8646 I have the same problem.

I had the same problem but you can solve it by turning off the dynamesh opcion and then do the hair clump and the fiber mesh option :)

You are very welcome! Glad they have been helpful

Thanks, Indie!

You need to delete your curves before drawing the next stroke. Stroke >> Curve Functions >> Delete

Neba Ali some shortcuts are different between windows and Mac. Search for ZBrush shortcuts for your keyboard and try it again. :)

@@timefliesaway999 thankyou i'll look into that

For closing holes there is an very easy step 1- zoom in part where u want to close the holes 2- just hide tht rest of the part just keep the mesh u want fill ur holes with a part of it 3- go to zbrush tab chose Ur z-modeler brush 4- zoom in all the way to the part where u can see tht u can select the edges or points of tht mesh where the holes are 5-hover Ur mouse or pen to one of the edges where the hole is a vertex or an edge u will see a white line is there when u select an edge 6 - press space-bar u will see a tab appears on bottom left side u will see there is an option closed holes and beneath tht u will see tht either u want convex or concave closed holes chose what u prefer 7 - now after u chose click on tht edge where u had seen tht white line u will see tht holes are closed properly in and out and also delete parts if u have some hidden geometry 8 - dynamesh/z-remesh it Ur choice cheers u have now closed the holes in Ur mesh. Hope this helps !!

This is an very easy and very good tip for closing holes in zbrush

Not sure without images. Try running an auto groups function after drawing the hair. If you are still having trouble, join the ZBrush Discord and post there with images.

I disabled the dynamesh option and it created polygroups

You could mask the geo and apply fibermesh along the length of the strand. Just depends what you are trying to accomplish with the final geo.

You are two versions behind. Just grab the free update and they should work fine.

ok thanks

as long as the curve is still under the geometry, yes

same problem!

As mentioned in the video, these are Marthin Simny's brushes, you might want to ask him. The only thing I can think of is to make sure that you are on the most up to date version of ZBrush (4R8 P2 currently). Also, you can turn on curve mode in the curve menu to convert your IMM brush into a curve brush.

Right! I updated to the latest version and it worked! Thanks a lot!

Fede Ga Glad to hear :)

Sounds like you might be clearing your mask and then attempting to clear your mask again, which automatically activates Dynamesh.

THANKS!!

Sound dampening foam because my room echoed like crazy when I moved in

Try running an auto groups

@@Follygon Thx) But trouble was in so simple think that hard to quickly understand xD My problem was in DynoMesh. On Dynomesh objects curves creating without polygroups) But thx for answer =D

have you solved it ?

Try updating to the newest version of ZBrush. It's free.

Click frame mesh while you still have the original curve on the brush. Just tried it out in the current version of ZBrush (2019) using the Hair Clump brush. Works fine.

​@@Follygon ok i tried again in the 4R8P2 version but the orignal curve desappear and just are 2 on the end and the begging (are cicles) im doing something wrong ?

did you verify that you had not activated dynamesh before using the brush? on my side that's what's going on :) I hope you have found the solution to your problem since all this time !

The link in the description still works, is still free, and hasn't changed in over 4 years.

@@Follygon Thank you! Sorry, I'm missed up.

Hahahah how did this comment slip past me

I have the same problem

You probably have the newer default settings where the options are shown on the shelf. Check under Preferences > Interface > IMM Viewer

same(((

Solution: dynamesh button off mode -> 'MAg hair brush' polygroup activate! ->they appear as not circle :-) (My English isn't very good,so please understand)

I guess some people just wanna see the world burn ~

"Update ZBrush"
