Convert base color maps and normal maps in Character Creator to polypaint and detail layers in ZBrush, and send Polypaint and high res details from ZBrush to Character Creator as baked color and normal maps respectively! Use for props, clothing, accessories, and more! We’ll also use this in conjunction with ZBrush Pose Tools to pose our high res source assets for 3D printing!
