Zbrush FBX exporter crash


#1

I’ve been trying to export a highpolly mesh from Zbrush as an FBX. The mesh comes up to around 21 million so I guess it’s pretty big. But every time I export the mesh and select Where it should go, Zbrush freezes. It informes me “export complete 3 senconds” or something, but It’s still loading. If I click anywhere Zbrush will crash, and of course the FBX file does not get exported.

Can someone please help thanks in advance !

set the geometry lower then save it,
just lower the geometry sub d level slider lower then tool>make polymesh 3d then save as a fbx

In case anyone else stumbles on this issue, I ran into the same thing but it turns out I just had to wait (and not touch ZBrush). When exporting very high resolution FBX models with multiple subtools it’s best to just leave ZBrush alone even if it says “exported in X seconds” and/or has the loading icon. After some time the status message will change to “switching to <model name>” and then give you control with a “File Exported” dialog box. Best of luck.
