I am new to DAZ3d and I was wondering why my renders are so noisy even though my scene has lightning clear as day.

My render setting are as follow: Noise filter enable, render quality: 3, Rendering converged ratio: 98%

Most of the time if I let the render finish, my end result is more noisy than if I stopped the rendering half way done.

Any tips to get rid of noise ?

Thanks

Code Below:

// Ensure a figure is selected
var oFig = Scene.getPrimarySelection();

// Random floating point number generator for property value 
function customFloat(min, max) { return Math.random() * (max - min) + min; } 

// Create an array for our properties 
var earProperties = ["Proportion Head Size",
                     "Asymmetry Ears 01 Left",
                     "Asymmetry Ears 01 Right"];

if (oFig && oFig.inherits("DzSkeleton")) { 
   var oObject = oFig.getObject(); 

   if (oObject) {
      // Cycle through array and change the properties 
      for (var i = 0; i < earProperties.length; i++) { 
         var currentProperty = earProperties[i]; 
         var oProp = oFig.findPropertyByLabel(currentProperty); 

         // Set select property to random value 
         var randomNumber = customFloat(0.0,1.0); 
         if (oProp) { oProp.setValue(randomNumber); } 

         // DEBUG: Print the random number and array item. 
         print("Random Number: " + randomNumber); 
         print("Node Name: " + currentProperty); 
      } 
   }
}

I come to you all out of desperation.   I put a help ticket into the Tech Support an entire week ago with no response yet.   No response...

I followed a video's instruction on setting up the DIM and Daz files on a new computer and this failed too.    After this I tried to get help on the Technical Support Forum here and just could not follow what they were trying to say.  Sometimes people who know a lot can not articulate well to a person who does not making a nomenclature disconnect is the best way I can describe it. 

The problem is I have a fast solid state C drive where I want my Rendering to take place.  I have a super large D drive (but slower of course) where I stored all of my Daz files from my old computer.

I need somebody ((And I will pay you for your time as I am not presently destitute by any means)) to look at my paths and get them to match correctly for DIM and the Daz 6 Base Directory.  This seems straight forward enough but I'm having problems getting my old runtime files to match.   Someone told me that I had embedded a directory within the Base Directly and Daz doesn't like this.

My email is [email removed - PMs do not require exposing your address]  I'm willing to talk by telephone or other video conferencing techniques that allows you gurus to see how my computer is laid out.  I know how to send screne shots too.  We can discuss a rate of your choice (as long as it ain't crazy high) and I will gladly pay you through Paypal or send you a check etc.

I'm desperate at this point and need an expert to get me up and running again.   If I can just get the old files in the new D drive correctly in the Base Directory and have DIM matched I think everything will be fine.   As it is right now All of the Daz stuff installed but I'm missing most of my morphs and textures so there was a issue of my own making there. 

Please help me out and I will compensate you for your time.

Thanks, JT

Have been using Daz Studio6 laura for genesis9, added some features and then exported with fbx and imported into blender 5.1.2 as there isnt a bridge option i know of.

Chasing issues all the way, mesh stretching eyes, eyelashes and brows not moving with body etc.

Let me say i have no idea, this is my first project and i wanted to do it myself so i understand whats involved for future contract work

If anyone has the means to import my daz file into blender would be much appreciated.

Ultimate goal is to have characture in flutter, maybe via utility that looks human, talks and acts human like too.

"Warning! Obscuring the viewport during an OpenGL render may corrupt the final image"

Did not do this intentionally. All my renders are garbage, fast but garbage. Anyone know what could possibly cause this and how I undo it?

I'm having a problem with custom Genesis 9 morphs, and after searching for over a month I still haven't found a solution—neither on the Daz forums nor anywhere else online.

Here's my workflow:

• I created a custom morph in Blender.

• I wrapped it to the Genesis 9 base using FaceForm Wrap.

• I imported it into Daz Studio with Morph Loader Pro.

• Then I made a few more adjustments in Blender and imported the updated morph back into Daz.

I'm pretty happy with the result in the neutral pose, but that's where the good news ends.

The first problem is the eyes. I created custom eye morphs as well, but when I make the character look at the camera, the gaze never feels quite right. No matter what I try, I can't get the eyes to look naturally at the camera. The result is still far from acceptable.

The second problem is facial expressions. As soon as I apply expressions, the character starts looking unnatural and ugly. My goal isn't to create a Frankenstein character—I want the morph to work well with Genesis 9 expressions.

At this point I'm not even sure what I should be learning next. Is there a proper workflow for fine-tuning custom Genesis 9 morphs so they behave correctly with eye poses and facial expressions?

There doesn't seem to be much information on this topic, or maybe I'm just searching for the wrong terms since English isn't my native language.

If anyone could point me toward tutorials, documentation, or explain the correct workflow, I'd really appreciate it.

Thanks!

Might be a stupid ask, but could someone help me a little to understand what are some settings in DAZ that would improve tool response and render quality?

To put this into perspective, so far I was building mainly characters and small scenes with 1-3 characters and everything worked well. In terms of render time, depending on the complexity of said small scenes, it was between 15-40 minutes. Now, I stepped up to a more complex scene with 7-10 characters, slightly bigger environment with everything non crucial set to base quality and my renders now take 7-9 hours to complete. I understand the complex work DAZ is doing in the background (ex: light bounces etc.) but it still feels like a huge jump from ~1h to 8h.

In terms of technical details:

DS6
GPU: RTX 5070 Ti (16GB VRAM)
CPU: 9950 X
RAM: 32GB

I know VRAM is a crucial element and for DAZ this should be high as hell, but even with 16GB, I still believe my PC should be able to handle a little more workload. Maybe I did not set up something correctly in DAZ or in Nvidia Control Panel. At this point I no longer know what to do since I've already tried several tweaks..so I'd really appreciate if someone more experience could share some useful insights.

By the way, attached - 1st one is the small scene which took like 20 minutes to get and the 2nd one (still noisy) like 6-7 hours.

Thanks in advance for any help!

Does anyone here know what skin that was used in the promos?   I would really appreciate it.

I am looking for other artists not on the list below, that creates life like meshes and materials, artists I know of so far and like a lot:

-Mousso
-ISTQ
-ADDY
-E3D
-HID
-KOO

The only interesting text in the log file is "Importing Wavefront Object" if that helps.

EDIT: Nevermind. The scale during import was the issue. Setting it to 100% fixed it.

So far I have used 6 flattened and stretched cubes, 2 for each "floor". The little pink object is a spacer. 

This is supposed to represent a three-storey building. If you are thinking "industrial park" architecture that would be ok. I am planning to add more "floors" to represent a residential, high-rise apartment building. It's for a suggestion for a revised emergency planning handbook.

Normally I can render stuff without it being so bright. Where did I go wrong?

This is so frustrating! 

yesterday I tried to fit a gen 2 figure to a gen 9 and for the first and last time the Auto-Fit-Dialog showed up and gave me these options:

• Source Figure: 
• Item Type: 

It worked and the figure was fit.

Now the dialog doesn't show up anymore. What's the problem?
