ZBrush

What works

Upgrade from 4R3 to 4R4. Web activation. Opening models, ZSphere modeling, OBJ export, save & load Tools, sculpting. Startup is real slow, but I hear it is the same in MS Windows. Works gracefully with really big models. May be slightly faster in use than previous versions, but this is hard to measure.

What does not

Slight problems with changing to other apps (user interface freezes sometimes). ZBrush tries to cover Gnome panel, which may or may not be problem...

Workarounds

What was not tested

Advanced functionality, many new features, several plugins.

Hardware tested

Graphics:

• GPU:
• Driver:

Additional Comments

I have very optimized Gnome and NVidia setup because I have very low end graphics card (GT240). I also have Gnome fallback, which may help using ZBrush (because I heard many Unity users have reported strange behaviour with Wine). I had to do web activation twice, but this is probably not Wine related problem.
