Works mostly as intended but doesn't fully match the way ZBrush outputs the polypaint/vertex colors which trips up the Substance Designer baker specifically. The Substance Designer OBJ parser needs the #MRGB comment lines to use windows style (CRLF) newlines, same as the ZBrush export. This script uses Unix (LF) Style newlines. This can be fixed by amending 2 lines in the vColorHexSplit64 function. FROM: result +='\n#MRGB '..... TO: result +='\r\n#MRGB ' and FROM: result += '\n'..... TO:result += '\r\n' This should make the exported Vertex Colors bakeable in Designer.

It seems like it should work, I followed the instructions on the video and everything went well like in the video. However it still loads a blank OBJ file from Maya. I am not sure what the issue could be- maybe the program doesn't work with Maya 2022.3? Please help, I desperately need this program to work between Maya and ZBrush.
