It’s Odd that I can make a tiff in zbrush3 from grabdoc and save it. But can’t make Import a basic tiff from Photoshop? Is there another steps I’m missing?
Thanks Metalliandy,
I thought it would work 
. Because, I thought it worked off of tiff's:/
I have another question do i save one Layer at a time? 
I noticed by using a .psd format it gave me an odd picture. I could see the Alpha but it showed vertical mess of lines on or in it? Probably of my other layers on the file. Trying to describe it is messy :/ I'm assuming saving it with one layer at a time

Do you mean from Photoshop to ZBrush?
I dont think ZBrush supports layered PSDs in the same way that Photoshop does...I could be wrong but i think that it merges that layers during import, but all the data should be retained.
Alpha channels seem to just cause artefacts and the results are less than brilliant (the mess you are talking about)
Hope that helps
yes, I mean Photoshop to Zbrush sorry. hehe
thanks Metalliandy
Hi Longbowan,
Im not sure why but i also have problems importing tiffs that are saved in Photoshop.
May i ask why you are using tiff? If its for 16bit support, you could use PSD instead.
Hope that helps
