This is basically a set of high-quality SSS skin presets for V4 for both Poser and DAZ Studio.
Is anyone using this with DS4.5P? It’s on sale for $14.98 ‘til the middle of September, and I’m really tempted to go for it, but I’d like to hear from someone who’s used it and what they think of it. Funds are tight and the PA sales are going on, so I need to spend what money I can spare wisely. Thanks…
Judging from the product its presets are designed for poser SSS and the material room + IDL. If you use it here in Daz basically you just going to have the texture, which on its own is nothing special. Yes it has great detail, but without the right shader that it was designed for it wont look anything like what you see in the promo’s.

No, no! This includes special presets made just for DS that are far more than just loading the texture! Initially, it was Poser only but it was updated recently. They spent a lot of time on the DS shaders.
As it says on the product page:
“Complex DAZ STUDIO SHADERS:
Uber Shaders for all components
HSS Shaders for All components
DS Basic Shaders for All components
Created by Vince Bagna”

My bad. Last time I checked it was poser only. Now I also want to see what it looks like in Daz.
Yes I saw the 1DS promo image I would love to see more especially a few close ups in different lighting, hopefully someone who has it will post some images.

No worries! It happens.
I have the character myself and I have downloaded the latest DS 4.5 which I’m guessing is Pro? I don’t know, the free one. I haven’t tried using DS since version 3 but I’ll try installing it and see what I can come up with. My DS renders will probably suck but I’ll do my best. I’m bored waiting for my promo renders in Poser to finish anyway…
Did you know that it’s possible to render with both Poser Pro 2012 and DS Pro 4.5 at the same exact time? I just found that out and did it several times. Not much lag either!
Anyway, keep in mind I have no idea what I’m doing since I just installed this program and started playing around in it less than half an hour ago. One image is with the HSS shaders and the other is with the Uber shaders. I used a light set from my Poser library. The figure is Genesis because I couldn’t find V4 in that thing!
Regardless, I think Oxygen looks pretty good. I like the realistic shimmer on the skin. I wish I knew how to add some specular lights to enhance the eyes but these renders will have to do until someone more experienced with DS comes along.
Maybe I can give Syyd another headsup to maybe come pay a visit to this thread… worked last time!
Actually its a pretty detailed base texture, and I worked very hard at it, to bring it to fruition. Each time I create a texture I try to bring something else to the table, something different, something better The DAZ surface stuff by Vince is always highly regarded, he’s an exceptional talent in a number of softwares There are a couple of his renders in the secondary promo images, a red head, a girl with black hair, and that classically beautiful render I am using.
Here are some close up shots of Oxygen under different lighting conditions.
It’s the exact same pose for all shots, and the same 2 lights.
As far as Genesis is concerned, i know the mats work on Genesis if you choose the V4 UV thing, but i’m not sure about the morph. Isn’t there a utility in the store that permits to transfer the morph to Genesis?
Yes there is a product called GenX that transfers Gen4 morphs to Genesis it works very well but as yet does not work in DS4.5.
Sorry to be a pain but is there a no make up option i couldn’t tell from looking at the promos, the skin looks as if it might do very well on younger males.
Thanks again.
The pics i posted are from the base Oxygen set, no make up.
And as Zev0 said above, there is the Oxygen Infuse set with a lot of make up option (but you still need the base pack), and the Oxygen Infuse 2D to 3D set that contains the 2D files to apply to the base texture to make your own make up variations.
About DS4.5, what about the Uber and HSS shaders ? Do the shaders made with an older DS4 version still work ? I ask because i still not have the 4.5.
