I'm triyng to add some volumetric effects to a tactical flashlight attached to a weapon. I've done some googling and searching in the forums, but nothing is really standing out.

I did purchase the Cinematic Light FX plus Atmosphere product, hoping to use a cinematic light as the light from the flashlight, but cannot position the light anywhere close to correct. I'm guessing I'm using it not for what it was intended.

Can anyone point me to either a product or a tutorial that will hopefully get me where I need to go?

Thanks!

What's happened and how do I fix it?

I've got an issue which I absolutely do not understand.
My Genesis 3 Starter Essentials items do not appear in my ContentLibrary nor in the Smart Content. I have no issues with G8 or G2 - but G3 resists to show up. I installed it deinstalled it, installed it updated it - no effect.

How can this problem be solved?

Hello,

First of all, know that I am starting, so you will find my question probably stupid ^^

Inadvertently, when trying out software functions, clicked on a wrong button, and I ended up with a point display and no longer with the surfaces

How can I restore the original display and see my scene with its characters?

thank you in advance for your help

But would there actually be any diffrence using reversed deformation on a new morph loader pro when importing a new morph for genesis 8 base compared to not use it?  

So if I load Diego 8 - Gabor, then Apply the Adventurer Knight clothes, and finally apply a pose like G8M Almighty pose #5, and it hangs for 2-3 minutes applying the pose. It takes just as long to remove the pose. I'm using Daz, 4.12.0.86 Pro (64-bit).

I believe that in this case its the bottons on his coat that are causing problems.  (Non morphing props?)  I also know this affects some Aeon Soul clothes, and some others.  The number of objects attached to the clothing affects how long it takes to apply and remove a pose.  I have literally given up on Aeon Soul's Y'Vas, and killed\restarted Daz.  (For that I had to pose the character, apply the clothes, then add the props, and finally load that set up into the final scene.  Changing my mind was not an option.)

I just upgraded to the latest DAZStudio_4.12.1.117_Win64, and have confirmed that daz still siezes up when applying poses.

I just realized I can run my monitors from the 2nd and 3rd graphics card.

Does it free up graphics ram when rendering not having my 4 monitors plugged into my main graphics card?

Those are some screenprints of the problems : what I have on screen, what I have when I do render.

Could someone help me to understand what I do false please? I didn't find any help file or how-do file in the package.

I've used dforce on clothing pieces but never on hair. 

Thanks a lot!

I was hoping someone could help me. I use the IDG Iray Selectable Hair Color Shader now and then. Last time it caused me to crash, but then I realised there was an update and just now It's doing the same thing, is this happening for anyone else? I checked to see if there was an update, but none that I can see. This is happening is version 4.12.1 and the beta 4.12.2

It doesn't what one I apply or how I apply them they just don't change anything at all,  Even the color settings in the srfaces tab for the eyebrows don't change.

What I absolutely cannot find in all of Daz' settings and menu is something like "Hardware", if someone could give a hint there in general.

I tried Daz connect and manual install but both ways it was the same.

There must be something I am missing.

LAMH plugin perhaps?

I have the LAMH viewer.

Store page says nothing about needing anything other than Genesis 8.

I have tried the scissors, but it is uneven, while I would like to go for the 'buzzed', 'clippers' look.

Does anyone have any solutions for this?

Thanks

Bunks Instance, Bunks Instance 2, and Bunks Instance 3 are exactly where Bunks is, which is why you can't see them.

I want to distribute Bunks Instance, Bunks Instance 2, and Bunks Instance 3 evenly between Bunks and Bunks Instance 4.

As you can see on the screenshot the apply button is grayed out. What am I missing?

Help! 

regards

I need help with an annoying problem. I installed the Interactions Expression G8 1 pack but no matter what I do, the presets won't apply to the G8 female model.

This problem persists even on The Brute 8 expressions; they simply don't work.

Below are attached some screenshots of what I think you guys will want to know.

I have never successfully shut down my Studio before, it always hangs and freezes ("Application is not responding") and each time I have to force quit.
Once in a while, it freezes my Mac entirely and I have to attempt a hot shut down instead of rebooting.

Is there something wrong with my Studio installation? Should I uninstall and reinstall Studio?
Any other Mac users experiencing this problem? My Mac is only one year old.

It is not a problem of modeling (ALL, occurs with all obj are like this, the mesh has no flaws and is perfectly modeled), it is being made high poly, other joints work without a problem.
The defects remain only in the groin and armpit...... How do solve this? whoever can explain in detail, I will thank you immensely
Thanks!!

Thanks.

Like have 2 genesis 2 females next to each other but the arm of one can't go into the torso of the other. It stops when it touches the torso.

After watching this video, I am curious what could be equivalent to it on Blender to render in ACES complianet HDR instead of sRBG to ACES conversion.

Thank you!

Any idea of what could cause that?
