Hello, does anyone know what program(s) is used to create these models?

Zbursh and Blender are the two primary programs we use in our team.

When using ZBrush from the template pieces, how do you set up your geometry.
IE do you import the obj file then make polymesh3D, then Dynamesh for details?
I would really love to know your setup and process along with settings if you would not mind.
I have been trying to make some custom tiles but I am having a few issues with mesh warping and large files [I do not seem to decimate models well] I am trying to get some nice detail so I have Dynamesh [polish on, BLur 0, at 512] which hits around 500k active points. I am also having issues with 3D print hub not exporting the correct sizes.

So any help or videos that you can give me would be great

Thank you for your time,

Sean

Okay so after 4 days I have my models down to a workable size without much detail loss. I have exported the files as OBJ and import them into Simplfy3D. I have an issue with non-manifold edges and self-intersecting surfaces.
I have tried everything I can think of in ZBrush to stop this, I have made live booleans, Merged, baked layers, check mesh integrity and everything leave ZBrush in good order but Simplfy3D still gives me those errors.

My process is to import an OBJ template file, either make a polymesh cube then size it to the template, then dynamesh.I have also tried to separate the top of the template and increase its height, then dynamesh. after detailing then merge them into one tool and export as a new OBJ. I will include a 2×4 test tile, Incase anyone can help.

Thank you for any assistance,

Sean
