Imported Model Question

[Mark Johnston]

Hi I just did this model as a test to import from Zbrush I used Object 2 Fact to convert and my Question is why model doesn't look correct if you use the hardware engine but looks right if you use the software engine . It renders correctly with either one selected. What's going on

Thanks Mark

Hi Tomas I tried a different model of a face I made from a sphere and this one is facing the camera in the camera window but when rendered you see the back of the model ------strange. I Think I need to mess around with exporting from Zbrush alot more. I know I'm doing stuff wrong because I was just watching video on Lynda .com where the guy doing the lessons says you should export at the lowest level . But if I did that the model would not look right it seems to me. But maybe I'm just not understanding things . I have not tried export at lowest level so I'll try that see what that does.

Mark BTW Thanks for responding. Any help tips from anyone who uses Zbrush will be helpful.

Hi Tomas I reconverted with object 2 fact and reversed normals and guess what ,------------Big Drum Roll----It worked , and it also displays correctly in hardware or software , I've been wondering if I had a graphics card problem.

Thanks alot Tomas
