Anybody used Zbrush UV Master?

triplej96 181 posts26 Apr 2010I must say its quite amazing! First I was learning how to UV in Bodypaint and it proved very tedious and time consuming. I managed to get a ok UV map but then came UV Master from Zbrush. I created a new UV map in about 20 minutes inside of Zbrush and its near perfect. No seams and very even spacing.
Here is my model UV'ed in Zbrush.

I was curious what you guys thought about it? I was looking into UV layout but then this plugin came out

26 Apr 2010From what i've seen and heard its good only for characters/creatures. UVLauout can UV everything you can model. I don't think that a zbrush plugin can do that.

triplej96 181 posts26 Apr 2010Yeah that makes sense. It seems that's what Zbrush is typically used for characters/creatures but when I get a chance I will test it out on a non-organic model.

26 Apr 2010I'm a huge fan of Unfold 3D. It's real easy to use and can unfold anything. Anytime I've used zbrush the model was all ready unwrapped using Unfold, so I can't compare

26 Apr 2010i am a fan of intern3D ! you guys really have to check it out. Its not just good a UV layout its basically good for everything you just have to find the right "module" to work with
its very intuitive and easy to work with.
and it works like this:
1.you grab some random interns who just die of boredom and would do anything for somekind of other 3d work except mocap data cleaning (since thats the main work here for interns )
2. you givethem the files and explain what you want for 15 minutes and then you leave for a coffee
3. the next day you take the uv's and give it to to texture artist.
the biggest con is that it sometimes takes a while until you get a good uv map but you just fire it up and dont think about it again..
max 2 days later your UV's are ready
(i know its kinda mean but im not the guy running this place)
and then again i was an intern too some time ago
