I downloaded the rock brushes from the link above to use in blender. I would like to use these same textures in ZBRUSH as alphas, but I cannot figure out how to locate or extract the files.

Ive attached a screenshot of what the folder of the downloaded file looks like, as you can see I am only to see the .blend file. Is there a way to look at the content within that file in order to get the textures?

  • Do you want to extract the textures from the blend file but you don't have Blender? Why don't you download it? It's free and there is a portable version. The brushes use textures that use images if I remember right. The images are probably packed into the blend file. So you need Blender to export them. – Blunder Jan 03 '23 at 22:21
  • @blunder yes im using blender, but I need to extract the textures from the blend file. I cant figure out how to export the files from blender, do you know how? – Peter Randall Jan 03 '23 at 22:30
  • I've tried to open the blend file (2.7x) on 2 computers with Blender 2.83, 3.4, and 3.5a. It crashes all the time immediately. So, Plan B: Open a new blend file, use menu File > Append > Brushes, and select all "RB_..." brushes. Then save the blend just to choose a directory. The brushes come with packed images. Now, you can export all these images with the menu File > External Data > Unpack Resources & choose Use files in the current directory.... That's where the saved blend file is. Blender will create a folder named "textures" & saves the *.PNG files there. Mission complete :-) – Blunder Jan 04 '23 at 03:27
  • I'm not sure why your question got closed because it's about Blender and exporting data. IMHO it's more a duplicate of this question: Is there a way to save the textures used inside a .blend file to a PC?. Maybe a moderator can fix it. – Blunder Jan 04 '23 at 03:43
  • @Blunder That may have been a bit hasty decision on my part! Sorry, fixed it. – quellenform Jan 04 '23 at 09:56
  • @blunder thanks for the link, I ended up unpacking the whole file and it put the textures into a separate file which I saved to my desktop! – Peter Randall Jan 04 '23 at 14:08
