PolyGroup Enhancements – Several functions have been added relating to ZBrush’s PolyGroup options. No matter the distance the model is from the camera the bolt, alpha pattern and scales will remain the same size due to the brush dynamically changing. This becomes extremely helpful when sculpting items such as bolts, alpha pattern, scales, and etc. Dynamic Brush Size – Makes it possible for the brush size to dynamically change as the model moves closer or further away from the camera. Align Loops – An alternative to the Delete Loops feature, this produces the same visual effect but doesn’t change the model’s topology. At higher settings it can also drastically change the shape of your model. Delete Loops – Allows you to remove unnecessary edge loops. Or it can extrude those panels from the surface with clean borders and bevels, perfect for hard-edge sculpting. Panel Loops – Based on PolyGroups, this feature will transform the selected model into individual panels with thickness. These curves can then be used with any of the curve-based sculpting brushes. Curves by Features – Creates curves based on the model’s PolyGroups, creased edges or its outline. DynaMesh functionality has been greatly enhanced and can now retain more of your shape in a lower polygon count than ever before, thanks to the new Polish by Features volume preservation characteristic. It includes Polish by Features, but also Polish by PolyGroups and Polish by Crisp Edges. Polish by Features – A new set of Polish sliders has been added in the Tool > Deformation sub-palette to improve your surface and make them cleaner, especially for hard surface models and product design objects.
