GOZ Flipped Axis when sending to Zbrush

[Ricardo 4D]

Hi,
I can't get the model orientation to be the same in C4D and Zbrush using GoZ. I noticed that there is an option in the Zbrush preferences, but it doesn't seem to be having any effect.
How can I set this up?

Thanks
Ricardo

Hi Ricardo,

I can't tell you why you can't overwrite the settings, but I can suggest what to do manually.

Search for the file "GoZ_info.txt" I assume you find a few; one is for Cinema 4D, and it is in the Cinema 4D folder.

Open it in a Text Editor, set the Y values in the Opposite TRUE vs FALSE

Save it. Restart ZBrush.

I went through this here a few minutes ago, as I typically do not answer from memory.

It works now; I got it upside down (and then changed back as before as it worked for me before). So that might count as a double check even.

Fingers crossed, it will work for you.

Cheers

Hi Dr. Sassi,

Thanks for the heads up!

This is the path for windows users C:\Users\Public\Pixologic\GoZApps\Cinema4D

And the Values look like this:

EXPORT_FLIP_X = FALSE
EXPORT_FLIP_Y = TRUE
EXPORT_FLIP_Z = TRUE
IMPORT_FLIP_X = FALSE
IMPORT_FLIP_Y = TRUE
IMPORT_FLIP_Z = TRUE

Everything working fine now. Developers should address this simple change. It doesn't make sense to have it flipped.

Cheers!

Thanks for the feedback, Ricardo!

I will file a report that this needs some attention.

My best wishes for your project
