      <description><![CDATA[<p>Say I want to edit a&nbsp;skin in Gimp and add some details, irregularities, pores, scars, whatnot - is there an easy way to get all the necessary textures like height map, bump, displacement and whatever else might be there to load as layers in Gimp? A script perhaps? With an option to export with different name? (Though alt versions probably is one for Map Manager?)</p>

      <description><![CDATA[<p>Hi,&nbsp;</p>

<p>I am using Daz3D mainly to render animations (image series of moving objects). I noticed that there is a significant delay in between frames. For instance, when frame 1 has completed rendering it seems like the whole scene is reinitialized for frame 2 to start to render, making Daz3D completly unresponsive for about 30-50 seconds, after which it is picking up the render again.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Is there nay way to avoid that, as it makes render times much longer.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Thanks,<br />

Is there a way to clear all the stuff I don&#39;t need in there, without changing anything in the scene before I begin? One problem I have, is that I turn off the bend for a lot of the things, and they appear in the ERC create box. When I create a ERC, without checking it, the bends turn themselves on again, and I have to go back through every one hoping I don&#39;t forget any and turn the ones I need back off. Even if I leave unchecked the boxes restore figure riggin and restore figure. I would just like to start from a clean slate if that is possible.</p>

I&#39;m a Mac user stuck using Daz Studio 10.4 and High Sierra 10.3.6 in order to render using an Nvidia 1080Ti card via&nbsp;eGPU.<br />
<br />
Can someone tell me if the new&nbsp;Physically Based Rendering skin shader used on G8.1 models will work in Daz10.4?<br />
I have run a test but it was a disaster, the figure had no texture when rendered. I&#39;m guessing it&#39;s the PBR that&#39;s the issue but I could be completely wrong.<br />

      <description><![CDATA[<p>2 related questions:</p>

<p>1. Can material presets be easily edited? If I want to revise a material preset, the only way I know how to do that is by making a new material preset from scratch, giving it the same name as the one I want revise, thus over-writing the one I want to revise.</p>

<p>Some material presets can be pretty complicated, with about a hundred things to put check-marks on or un-check-mark in the hierarchical list. Re-making such complicated material presets can be time consuming, to say the least.</p>

<p>It would be nice to edit existing material presets in the GUI, wherein you open the preset in some kind of edit mode where you can see what is already check-marked or not, and adjust as one pleases. Does this feature exist?</p>

<p>2. If I change the name of a material zone in the Geometry Editor (where material zones are called &ldquo;Surfaces&rdquo;), is there a way to update the material zone name in all the material presets that applied to that material zone?</p>

<p>When I changed the name of a &ldquo;Surface&rdquo; in the Geometry Editor, all the material presets I had already made no longer controlled the material parameters for that Surface. I guess material presets don&rsquo;t automatically &ldquo;get the memo&rdquo; about such name changes. Is there a way to make them &ldquo;get the memo&rdquo;, and without having to edit them?</p>

<p>Despite this, this dress perfectly works with my Vic 8.1, but if I try to fit it to any Genesis 8, like Vic 8.0 for example, it fits her as &quot;unsupported item&quot; and does not allow to charge any texture, so the dress remains matte white.....unuseful&nbsp;:(</p>

<p>Any suggestions to fix the problem? Ask for a refund or wait for a fix? I like the item and I would like to keep it, but now I rarely use my Vic 8.1 and I bought the dress with intent of rendering it&nbsp;on&nbsp;a G8F&nbsp;model.</p>

<p>Any issues with similar recent items sold for compatible with 8.1 and 8.0, but having issues with 8.0?</p>

      <description><![CDATA[<p>Troubles after installing Mabel 8, need help.</p>

<p>I have installed Mabel 8 that is a wonderful character. After installing, there are problems with the other characters. Whwn i load one of the character of g8 or apply a character to g8, it load mabel too. For example if i load Chamelon rose 2, the character is chamelon rose plus Mabel, so i can see chamelon rose version old woman. Same thing happen with all other character and also when i load genesis 8 (or 8.1) and then apply the character. Every time i load a character i have to search in parameter tabs Mabel&#39;s body and head and put manually at 0.&nbsp;</p>

<p>How I can solve the problem?</p>

<p>In the&nbsp; attachment 2 files: the image of the results and the log of loading the character with the wrong result.</p>

<p>Thank you for help</p>

      <description><![CDATA[<p>When I was about to run script to turn on Advanced Iray Node Properties the icons had exclamationmarks and I could not run script.</p>

<p>DAZ could not find the script.</p>

<p>But, if I did hower over Icon and got the popup window it pointed to the correct place and file.</p>

<p>Also, selecting Browse to File Location opens the correct folder.</p>

<p>How do I get DAZ to understand thet the script actually exists&nbsp;just where it is supposed to be?</p>

      <description><![CDATA[<p>Hello</p>

<p>I recently applied hecate enchantress horns to my genesis 8 character. then i tried to add hooves from cc avandrael but as&nbsp; soon as i did this the horns on the head lost their texture. is this because the hooves geoshell seems to span over the whole body and as soon as i add them then the horns are offset? if i change the offset of the hooves geoshell then i can fix the horns but then the hooves offset is too low.</p>

<p>is there a way to fix this somehow or are those two items incompatible?</p>

      <description><![CDATA[<p>I have tried everything from updating Daz Studio, the package itself (Which did reduce the file sizes of the base items by&nbsp;a factor of 10), ensured that my CPU threads weren&#39;t maxed out, and that my NVidia drivers were the most up to date as of 6/12/21 and the Studio versions at that. I have an RTX3090 &amp; Titan V, but as many have been saying Daz Studio will ignore GPU&#39;s in favor of CPU&#39;s and if it doesn&#39;t have a CPU to default to it will just not render? Either way I am attaching screenshots, and the Log File. I am at a complete loss for what is happening and how to fix it. I am also a novice when it comes to graphics and this type of artwork. I would also like to note that when I was rendering images with up to 3 Morningstar Wings, assets that are 1.5MB in size each, I was able to render the image in 76 seconds. It had approximately 256MiB of Geometry and over 1 GiB of Textures. So the issue isn&#39;t related to file size of the asset, but seems to be a function of the geometry size because textures aren&#39;t an issue apparently.</p>

<p>All of my render settings are at the their default levels save the Pixel dimensions of course. Literally everything else is defaulted: Quality Level 1, Rendering Converged Ratio is at 95%, etc. No special settings, no knobs being turned, nothing out of the norm. These GPU&#39;s should eat rendering alive but instead they aren&#39;t even being touched and my out of date i7 processer is taking a beating causing my PC to freeze. I have also loaded known renderable scenes, stripped them of their assets, then added these Rogue Elements to the scene and am having the same issue. I verify it isn&#39;t the original file by reloading them and testing them with no issues. So far this is the only Asset Package that is giving me this kind of trouble because it seems to be the only package that is heavy on the Geometries over the Textures.</p>

<p>With that being said, I also realized that Pixel count has no bearing on the Geometry either so the issue has to be that the assets themselves, Rogue Element armor set, is the culprit and that it somehow has an exorbitant amount of Geometry? If&nbsp;that is the case is it even possible to render this with any amount of High Quality? I was able to make a render at 1074 x 1074 but for my purposes, that isn&#39;t high enough quality and I need at least 4 MP.&nbsp; So why would I be able to render it at that lower quality of 1 MP but bumping it up a notch crashes my computer? I really need some help because this is the only asset I am having issue with and it is a gorgeous armor set that I paid for that is apparently useless to me.</p>

<p>I apologize if this is all over the place.</p>

      <description><![CDATA[<p>I&#39;m having issues when trying to load a number of the supplied texture presets to the ATVE Mods Stinger. The file &quot;data/rane/atve modular kit/oddity/uv sets/rane/base/default.dsf&quot; is missing when I try to load any of the following materials:</p>

<p>Engine 1<br />
Landing Gear<br />
Wine Gun<br />

Default - All Dark</p>

<p>Also &quot;runtime/textures/rane/adventurers toybox vehicles edition/atve modular kit/base textures/thruster blue.jpg&quot; is missing when loading the texture &quot;Forward Thrust&quot;.</p>

<p>I installed the product via Daz Connect (my preferred method) but have also downloaded it manually and the file is not present there either.</p>

<p>I do have a support request open but it has not had a response for three weeks, despite me providing the requested information - which seems to be more and more often the case these days. Is anyone else having issues with it?</p>

<p>I just noticed an icon called &quot;Iray Advanced Render Settings&quot; under Render Presets &gt; Iray. Anyone have info on what this icon does? It seems to do something &quot;under the hood&quot; but I haven&#39;t seen any changes when used.</p>

<p>I suspect that it is a left over helper script from the begining of the Iray era, but I have no proof of that.</p>

      <description><![CDATA[<p>Quick backstory: When I am working on commissions, often, I&#39;m tasked to try to replicate the look of someone&#39;s original character. Other times, I&#39;m given a vague idea of what the commissioner wants. After one rather excruciating back and forth with my client, it got me thinking about this. Yesterday, I started rendering snapshots of outfits and color variations. After a few hours, I had queued up 140 renders, which encompassed DAZ purchased Genesis 8 female content... that starts with the letter A. This is going to end up being an enormous task. Am I making my life more difficult? Can I somehow show or link my library to others so they can look through it and pick outfits, hair, models, etc?</p>

<p>So after a dreadfully long complete re-install of DS and various runtime folders, I now face this:</p>

<p>Any G8M figure I load has a distorted head.</p>

<p>I tried loading the base G8M, and found that the guy on the left loaded.... (though when listing Shaping - Currently used only Eyelashes Curl, Length Lower and Length Upper show up at 100%). When I do a Figure - Zero Figure Shape the good old G8M (on the right) appear - and I can now dial in or load other character shapes correctly.</p>

<p>This is not possible on characters I have already used and / or modified though, because the &quot;load version&quot; of G8M is added to any morphs without the option to remove the offending morph...</p>

<p>How can I get default back to being default?</p>
