Don't get it wrong dude. I know where z intensity is. I just don't know why my smoothing tool still (pressing shift) still flattens the hell out of the surface of my model after I crank it down to 0. Pretend I'm a novice (I am). I'm apparently not the only one to complain about the over sensitivity of this tool. The previous zbrush was just right.

Don't know why I bothered posting that.. If you haven't figured it out in 1 month, god help you lol.

Click on the smooth tool and adjust the Z axis intensity manually. When you hit Shift it's at 100 by default, even though it says it has the Z axis intensity of the brush you're on.

go to ur tool panel and choose smooth brush then lower the z intensity to the way u like it... so now when u use standard brush and hit shift it'll smooth just like the smooth brush

Cool. We actually figured out last weekend how to export the detailed mesh into 3dsMax. Fortunatelly. my job kind of depended on it. Whew. Looks great in the end. Thanks anyway.

it depends to division level, if you make higher res then smoothing will get smaller

I have zbrush 3.1 If I want to use the smooth button (shift) it's a bit too intense. Where can I adjust the intensity. I go into tranform in the menu but there are no options for this. Do you think I bought an incomplete product?

Well it depends on your taste and what you are doing. I see XSI as the most artist friendly of the packages, with Autodesk 3dSMAX as the most technical/architectural while Maya is somewhere in between. In fairness I have not used Maya as much as I would have liked. I would suggest downloading the demos for each package and spending some time with them to get a feel for each package.
