ZRemesher from Zbrush now in Forger

I love Nomad but this is pretty… interesting

Is Zbrush Coming to Ipad?

I actually tried it. Forger does have some really interesting and impressive features. But overall it’s a trash app in my eyes for many reasons. However I do wish we get such tools in Nomad. Nomad is love!

Thoughts on Forger vs Nomad

I also did some testing on discord. I really want this to work, was was excited to see the ‘keep groups’ option, implying you could do that popular workflow in zbrush to tag up polygroups to guide zremesher. It doesn’t work, which is a real shame. Unconstrained zremesher is pretty good, but both curve guides and polygroups are pretty broken. Also its very easy to crash on older hardware, its pretty much unusable on a 1st gen ipad pro, the same machine that runs nomad very solidly. Original dec…

Oh I didn’t see that post… Very interesting what you’re saying, I didn’t imagine that ZRemesher would work so poorly

This is proof that no matter how much money and people you have to develop an app — in the end what matters is the talent of the developers!

I love working with nomad, but I use the forgerapp to remesh.
It makes a better topology to animate afterwards in cinema4d

I agree on the quality on the default ZRemesher in Forger. As of now, there are no boolean operations or subtractive remeshing like in Nomad. For hard-surface stuff it works really well placing a minimal number of poles in places where they don‘t affect shading. I would do the block out in nomad and then zremesh in forger, then UV unwrap in nomad for texturing in Procreate, back to render in nomad with global illumination.
The guides did not work at all to control the edge flow.
