Hey guys long time no see.

just had a quick Zbrush query.

It isn't actually possible to import a .OBJ with multiple UV tiles/sets into Zbrush ?

i have an asset i wanted to paint in Zbrush with uv's spanning over multiple tiles

i know that Zbrush can export multiple tiles using a UDIM.

Is it really impossible to import multi-tiled uv sets into Zbrush ?!

It seems (Ha pun !) like a pretty massive oversight.

Yes you can. You cant see them in Zbrush but when you paint everything
goes into the right place.

the impression i got was, if you import a mesh with only one tile it works fine, but if you try with multiple tiles, it will dump the UVs.

i tried flattening such a mesh (freshly imported in .OBJ), it says there are no UV's associated with this tool.

It always worked for me. Try with GoZ.
