Help! Use Geometry after simulation

Anonymous — Tue, 09 Feb 2021 13:46:20 GMT

hey

I want to create a pile of debris using Maya Shatter Effect and Dynamics follow the tutorial on Youtube (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f80LFuUgF7g). Everything looks fine and I duplicate these pieces want to bring into ZBrush. My problem is I cant retopo or quadrangulate them to get suitable topology for Zbrush. I even export these pieces as obj/FBX trying on retopo, not work. Can somebody give me any advice?

That’s what remesh does, cleans and retopo to quads. Importing doesn’t do anything until you remesh in Zbrush.
