Hey Mirko, Did you use the Inflate brush a lot to create the details? If so, that can cause a lot of noise because the polys are now mashed into one another.
As for zeremesher, it's more for helping create new topo that conforms to the surface. It's not going to transfer the detail most of the time. That means you will have to do a projectALL to get those details back. Without actually seeing the models I would guess that the detail is very high frequency/noisy in the sculpt. If you can import the hi rez sculpts into xsi and it's all blackened weird surface detail, then that's it. Nothing you can do to fix that other than to smooth it out in zb. A trick that helps me sometimes narrow down a problem area like that is to turn on Double in the Display menu down on the bottom right. That will show double faces and you'll see the culprits stand out easier. Hope that helps. -Wayne ________________________________ From: softimage-boun...@listproc.autodesk.com [softimage-boun...@listproc.autodesk.com] on behalf of Tom Kleinenberg [zagan...@gmail.com] Sent: Thursday, March 27, 2014 7:22 PM To: softimage@listproc.autodesk.com Subject: Re: really hgih poly zbrush to SI I seem to recall Zremesher giving odd results at a first pass, but if you run it again it gives cleaner results. I think it was in one of Paul Smith's videos - I may be crazy though.What do you mean when you say "weird polygons"? I'd try exporting the remesher mesh to Xnormal and see what sort of bakes you get.

So it is already cut out in couple pieces but a lot of details in there and I would like to transfer them as much as possible to low poly model version in Unity.

Some things you can try (as stated previously): Break the mesh up into subtool chunks that aren’t 10 million polys and export those and bring them into xnormal to bake bake. This can potentially give seams so make sure you try to break the chunks in areas that can hide those. You can also use zremesher to get it down to something a bit more manageable poly count wise then subdiv your way back up to about 4 million or so and project all. You can recover most of the detail but depends on how much detail you are trying to maintain. I work daily with super dense meshes being a game artist and I don’t really ever get up over 4-5 million polys for any single subtool. That’s nutterbeans level there. ZB starts to really bog down so best method I’ve found is to make sure I keep the subtools separate.

Exporting to obj get zbrush crashed on 32gb ram comp. Decimating or any other stuff in zbrush gives all kind of weird polygons once imported to SI. Or at least good point how to get proper normal maps.. we are close getting them but always something gets messed up. Any point to guide or something or tips would be great. Thanks
