Displacement Map Setup | ZBrush, Maya and Blender Workflow
Ойын-сауық
Hey guys! Learn how to create high-resolution details in your 3D models using displacement maps!
In this video, I will show you the step-by-step process of generating displacement maps in ZBrush and connecting them properly in Maya and Blender.
We will start by creating setting things up properly in ZBrush. Then, we will use the ZBrush displacement tool to create a displacement map from our sculpt. Once the displacement map is created, we will export it from ZBrush and import it into Maya and Blender.
In Maya and Blender, we will connect the displacement map to the material of our low-poly model. This will allow us to see the high-resolution details of our sculpt on our low-poly model at render time!

I've been looking for a tutorial on this and your method and parameters worked wonders, also made me understand how the catclark really works :). Thank you so much!
Wonderful as always
Thank your for this information , I did learn a lot .
Thanks man!!!! this was a big help I was looking for this since 2 dats and finally found the solution !!!
Thank you so much, I really needed it (before the 3d exam💀)
This stuff I was just looking for in the topic. Awesome tutorial!

Please how to export maps for many subtools from z brush to other 3d software
why when i export it turns red, when i add lever in pts it doesn't show anything

Hi, can I also apply normal map together with displacement as well?

Of course! It will make it the effect stronger si you might want to tone it down a little in the normal intensity

What would it be like if it were the other way around? Import the Maya model, sculpt the details and export just the displacement maps to apply to the Maya base mesh? I noticed that when we add subdivision levels to the mesh, it already changes its shape. Naturally it won't work if you export the maps.

The problem with not reexporting the low mesh is that the result will not match with the baked maps, because the baked happens from the modified mesh. It will be similar but not exact

But it is possible, I couldn't apply the theory but it has to do with storing a Morph and then starting to subdivide it. Something like that. There is the Switch MT button on the MME but I was unable to use it.@@AbeLeal3D
Hey, I have multiple questions and I hope you can help me. I sculpt a skeleton in Zbrush. I have lot of subtools (one by bone). Is it a problem ? Do I need to export a displacement map for each subtool ? If it the case I guess I need ot unwrap mu UV for each and I will have lot of map even if it's unecessary cause if it's possible I'd like to have multiple subtool in 1 map. And Finally, If I need to Retopology my mesh in maya. When do I make that ? My skeleton will be animate so I need to retopoly it. And I didn't understand how can I retopology AND add a displacement map from ZBrush (if it's possible). Thanks for your help man

each mesh needs to indeed have its own uv map so that the displacement can work. You can merge multiple bones in texture sets so that they share the map. you are also correct that you need good topology before doing displacement. So the steps i would follow are this: -Sculpt high poly -Retopologize -Create proper Uvs -Import new low poly to zbrush -Subdivide and project details -generate displacement maps hope this helps

@@AbeLeal3D Thank you for the answer. I keep in mind for the displacement map by mesh. I will make some tests. I never thought that I would have to do another pass between Maya & Zbrush specifically for retopology. But it seems like a good idea, i will do that. I joined the discord, I will ask help over there if I needed. Thanks again
How do I get the low poly Version from a high poly Z-Brush Model?

Excellent question , thru a process called retopology. There are a bunch of methods in this particular case since it is an object that won't deform I used zremesher

If I plug my displacement map to blender seams always showing up, the flipv is correct the position of uv is correct, I tried a lot of tweaks and different model, I can't fix it sir.

why RED only?

Because the displament map is expecting a float value, a single number, and you can get that information from the red channel, another option is to convert the RGB information into a float information with an extra node
