To work with scan data meshes in Mudbox

1. Import your reality capture mesh.
   • Import a model
   • Troubleshoot mesh errors
2. Repair any issues with the mesh.
   • Patch holes in a mesh
   • Smooth selected regions of a mesh
   • Delete many tiny poly islands
3. Enhance and refine the mesh with sculpting and painting.
4. Extract a clean base mesh using your preferred remeshing techniques.
   • Retopologize a mesh
   • Create a mesh from curves
5. Extract texture maps using the scan data mesh as the source, and your new clean mesh as the target.
   • Extract a normal or displacement map
   • Texture extraction overview
6. Send to Maya for rendering.
   • Send files to Maya, 3dsMax, and Softimage
