I just bought Axel a couple of weeks ago and then you turned around and released M5 of him… ugggh! He’s positively gorgeous, but I’m going to have to morph him myself.

There’s one of these morphs where he looks like he could be Angelina Jolie’s twin brother… looks great. Well done!

Aww, go ahead and get him… ya know you want to

We’re majorly behind on our M5 updates, but hopefully we can get them out a lot quicker… we need to the new guys out; poor Johan and ... that other guy needs to be done…

@nemesis10: oh and nice image!

Geez louise, yeah… soon as I get my website back up, you’re right… I’m going to HAVE to get him, *sigh*

Thanks for updating Axel, he’s better than ever.

oooo very nice! We’re glad you like him.

Could anyone post the hand edited solution of the duplicate file question with Axel?

First, I’d like to thank vwrangler for the solution.

Hi,

If you have Windows, you can edit the file using notepad. The file path in Windows Vista is: Documents<Studio<My Library<data<daz 3d<genesis<base<morphs<male_m3dia<Axel International M5…FBMAIAxelBody05SmallScale.dsf

Open this document with a text editor like notepad. If on Windows, right click file and select open with. If notepad isn’t an option, select choose default program. Select notepad from other programs. Be sure to remove check mark from the “always use the selected program to open this type of file” box before you hit the yes button.

After the file opens in notepad or your text editor of choice, scroll down to the bottom of the file. The error is in the second line from the bottom of the file.

First, I’ll post what the original file looks like with the id error highlighted. Next, I’ll post a screen grab with the error fixed highlighted.

Updated to change file path from daz3d to daz 3d.

Ah… just add the -1 to the “id” : “FBMAIAxelBody05SmallScale”, so it looks like this: “id” : “FBMAIAxelBody05SmallScale-1”,

Also, your path is slightly off.  DAZ 3D is more correct.  There is a space.  DAZ3D is a legit path but it’s not used for Genesis! 

Thanks for the fix!

Thanks to all; it solved the problem….

Here’s a render I did of Axel M5 wearing one of my newest purchases. I’m really happy with both purchases even though I had to hand fix an id error.

Below image rendered in DAZ Studio 4 Pro. Postwork was done in Photoshop CS5.

Sexy hot!

Agreed. The chest is very nice:)

I bought this set because it is promoted as being ‘remodelled’ for M5 and whilst the textures and morphs are fantastic I was very disappointed to discover that it is still using M4 UVs; especially as it doesn’t come with vascular displacement. I was hoping to be able to use the M5 displacement maps. :(

On the plus side, yo can use all of those cool things like the M4 Displacement maps http://www.daz3d.com/shop/m4-displacement-maps

I’m afraid I have to agree this looks like a really good character and texture but its not really as advertised, for M5 if the maps don’t use the M5 UV’s.
I’m finding the lack of use of M5’s proper UV’s dissapointing.

Yeh I have the M4 displacement maps + some other displacements that came with various M4 textures, however, I don’t crank up the displacement and I don’t like the weird ‘ridges’ these M4 maps cause with genesis around the deltoids and shoulder on a subtle displacement.
