No Mac version of zSculpty or Sculpty Maker. There was a similar thread recently where people suggested using Wings3D or Blender to convert your Mac zBrush creations. Just be sure to start your sculpt with an object that is compatible with the program you'll be using for the conversion. If you're going to be converting with Wings3D, then you should start modeling in zBrush with one of the preset objects that comes with the Wings3D plugin, not a zBrush primitive shape.

My solution
06-17-2009 11:54
My solution that I've come up with is that since I have a Mac with my ZBrush installed on it, and I also have an old laptop that is Windows, I am going to download the sculpty converter on my Windows laptop...then when I am ready to convert, I'll just email my .obj file to myself (using two different emails accounts obviously) and then open and convert it on my Windows laptop, and then upload it to SL or a photo-sharing website to retrieve it on my Mac.
Although I haven't tried this method yet because I just got ZBrush yesterday, I am pretty sure it's going to work. If it doesn't, I'll try uploading the .obj file on RapidShare or MegaUpload or something of the likes to retrieve it on my other computer. Obviously, this would only work if you have the two computers, but if you do, it's worth a shot...especially if you're not familiar with the other programs and how to export/import the files...it seems like a long process but I'm sure after you get the hang of it, it'll be easy.
