Smart Content no longer working on saved characters

Rogue7 — Mon, 10 Feb 2020 22:11:11 +0000

I have a few Genesis 8 female characters that I've been using for the last few months, and all of a sudden they're not being recognised by the smart content.

One of the characters I made into morph sliders, and once i apply that morph, the base character also looses the 'smart' associations.

Has something changed in an update, or am I doing something wrong? as far as I know I'm not.

Start with blank scene, merge in saved character (saved as scene), go 'smart content' and there's no wardrobe, hair, only a few poses...

Can't find prop in DAZ Shop

vonHobo — Mon, 10 Feb 2020 04:06:29 +0000

I have been looking for this lantern in the DAZ Shop for weeks, but I just can't seem to find a lantern that matches this one.

Does anyone know which product has this particular lantern?

corinthianscori — Mon, 10 Feb 2020 15:18:31 +0000

Daz Install Manager displays this alert when I attempt to login:
"Install manager, unable to login to specified account"

This alert displays despite having entered the correct user name and password.

Could AVG TuneUp or Avast have done something to fault my DIM?

I've tried uninsalling DIM and reinstalling DIM- obviously something remains that needs deleting - any clues?

Ron's Spray Paint HDRI?

vonHobo — Sat, 08 Feb 2020 18:02:20 +0000

Got this product recently and I have a question...

https://www.daz3d.com/ron-s-spray-paint

There are brushes for Photoshop which I know how to use. But it also comes with high-res JPG files.

Are the JPG files able to be used as HDRIs? Or are they intended just for general use in Photoshop?

What's Included and Features

20 Spray Painted Backgrounds 6000px 4556px @ 300dpi .JPEG
180 Photoshop Brushes .ABR

DIM fails to load and DAZ Connect crashes Studio

JeniMorris — Sun, 09 Feb 2020 18:36:12 +0000

I got a new laptop feb 1st 2020 running Win 10 and installed the latest versions of DIM and DAZ Studio.
Every time I start DIM, as soon as I enter my password it simply closes.
DAZ Studio will work until I try DAZ Connect, it's the same issue just closes Studio.
No error window pops up, it just shuts the entire program down.

After spending a week trying everything I have read in the forums from uninstalling and reinstalling the programs, uninstalling and reinstalling the PostgreSQL, to resetting my laptop, to making sure all my paths are correct. I'm stumped. My current log appears to be connecting to CMS but I am still left with this

--------------- Install Manager exited ------------------

Has anyone experienced something similar with a new computer and found a successful fix?
Thank you!

Weight Map Conversion problems

jfmorison — Sun, 09 Feb 2020 21:16:48 +0000

I have a number of older objects that are in .pp2 and .cr2 format that I want to convert to .duf. for the most part I have no problems, but ever now and again an item comes up that needs to be converted to weight mapping to save it to .duf. PROBLEM: the text box says to goto edit>figure>rigging>convert to weightmapping. if you follow that in 4.12pro you can only get ase far as edit>figure>? there is no option for rigging offered in this version. What do I need to do to convert these objects/figures to weight mapped?

Adding geoshell causes IRay viewport render infinite loop?

rames44 — Mon, 02 Oct 2017 19:43:21 +0000

Posting this one on behalf of my father. Tell me what we're doing wrong here.

Version 4.9.4.117. Windows 10. Dual GTX 1080 GPUs.

1. Start with the default empty scene (except for the Default Camera)

2. Add an instance of Victoria 7 into the scene. (Doesn't seem to depend on the particular character, so why not use the default one.)

3. Add the "anatomical elements" to her.

4. Switch your viewport to "NVIDIA Iray"

After giving Daz time to load up the textures, etc., etc., you get a viewport rendered using Iray. All well and good. Here's where it gets weird.

5. Select the anatomical elements in the scene hierarchy, and then Create >> New Geometry Shell. Select the "Parent to Selected Item" option.

Of course, since the geometry has changed, Daz and Iray have to start over again. But they never seem to get done. Looking at the log files, I see essentially the same set of lines over and over again:

Lather, rinse, repeat.

Seems like it sets things up, then decides the geometry has changed, so starts over, but then thinks the geometry has changed, so starts over, ad infinitum. There's some slight variation between the iterations, but it always gets back around to "Updating geometry" and starting over. Doesn't appear to matter whether you start from the NVIDIA Iray mode, or whether you switch out to Texture Shaded and back.

Is there something illegal about parenting a geoshell to the anatomical elements? Or is there something broken with my father's setup?

Iray crashes frequently after Nvidia driver update 441.12 (With 2x Titan RTX!)

Rafa20 — Wed, 06 Nov 2019 00:01:55 +0000

I don't know what's going on all of a sudden! After installing the new nvidia driver 441.12 I got both Iray preview crashes and render process crashes. Sometimes it works all of a sudden. Then again crash after crash (Daz Studio just shuts down). Before that driver update everything was fine!

I got two Titan RTX GPU's and I'm using Daz 4.12 Pro and 4.12 Beta pro public build (Vers. 4.12.1.16). Both have the same issues! What could be the problem?

What's strange that it seems not to crash in the preview if before clicking on the "Nvidia Iray" preview you click on "Solid Bounding Box" preview.

Is something wrong with that new nvidia driver? Does anyone else have similar issues with it?

Edit: In the Iray preview my CPU workload is at 100% and GPU at 1% even though I disabled CPU in the render settings and enabled the 2 Titans!!! What the hell is going on with that freaking Daz programm all of a sudden?!

Render Quality bad

sidneychuffnuts_30c47d3a3b — Sat, 08 Feb 2020 13:20:47 +0000

Hi everyone, having real issues with iray rendering a scene, am using hdri skydome - white/grey areas look as though not rendered in patches in the scene and fireflies in darker shadows - have been having this trouble since the update. Have I missed something or am I doing something wrong?

Am pulling my hair out as whatever I do doesn't seem to make it better. It's almost as if it hasn't finished rendering?

Thanks for any input

Offline Installation, Registration?

steve_kerry_uk2_64ed27c294 — Sat, 08 Feb 2020 21:18:16 +0000

I haven't had much luck searching the forum so I'll ask here: I've just installed DS so a new hard drive, in a completely isolated PC. The PC has no access to any other machine, or network, and definitely not to the internet itself. The only contact it has with the outside world is via a USB drive that I use to transfer files.

I have installed DS so I know that works okay.? But how do I register the software?

Is there any point downloading the Install Manager? If I download items from my account and save them to USB, can Daz read them off the USB and install them?

TIA

Steve

Plushies 2.0 Poses

vonHobo — Tue, 24 Dec 2019 20:36:30 +0000

I was wondering if all the Plushies 2.0 poses work between the various characters?

I would like to use the Pounce the Puma poses on Scamp the Fox.

https://www.daz3d.com/little-puma-poses-for-pounce-the-puma

Or do I need to get the pose products specific to the character, for instance, only Scamp poses work work on Scamp the Fox?

I would also like to use the Scamp poses on the Mousie for Ping the Ringtail.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Peaches chest ruff causing Daz to crash.

tequilagerbil_4563b514b2 — Tue, 31 Dec 2019 06:10:58 +0000

Anyone else run into this problem? I'm running the latest version of Daz 4.11 64bit and recently purchased Peaches by Lady Littlefox (love all content by LLf btw) https://www.daz3d.com/peaches

-obviously not a particularly memory-heavy model but every time I try to load the chest ruff (with or without Peaches in the scene) Daz instantly crashes. I have tried uninstalling with install manager and manually reinstalling via product library but problem still persists.

Wear them all G3M clone locking up

shiba_toma — Wed, 14 Feb 2018 05:22:15 +0000

I'm trying to use the Wear It All clones to apply the G3M "HFS Officer Uniform" to a G3F body. I have gotten this to work in the past (and sadly did not save it once I got the item trained...) but now it's consistently locking up at the 22% mark "building projection map". It's failed repeatable in both 4.9 and now 4.10.

Any thoughts how to coax this along?

Can someone give me complete clairification on Daz Rig usage?

Room101Studios — Sun, 02 Feb 2020 17:20:51 +0000

Okay, so it's my understanding that it's illegal to use any Daz Character Rigs for Shop Products.

So how exactly does one create conforming clothing for say Genesis 8, if you're not allowed to use the Daz Rig? I ask, 'cos it would be very simple for me to write a script that zero points Locators to the Genesis 8 skeleton in Maya, import them into Daz and then recreate the Skeleton, by hand using the Figure Setup.

Would THAT be considered "legal?"

DAZ Installer Issue

Choronzon — Sun, 09 Feb 2020 05:50:38 +0000

Of course it all starts with an update and I have no doubt it will be fixed but it won't get fixed if they dont hear about it so here goes: DIM won't work! I open it with no difficulties. it shows I have things to download. I have about 462 GB free so I am fairly certain there is room for my 8 new products. I click on any or all of the products and DIM stalls then goes to a report bug screen that says this:

DAZ3DIM.exe caused ACCESS_VIOLATION in module "C:\Program Files\DAZ 3D\DAZ3DIM1\QtCore4.dll" at 0033:000000005E243A76, QIODevice::isOpen()+6 byte(s)

No idea what this means. If staff need more information I can send it but the bug reporting site it sends me too reports that there is no such site. Sigh...

PostgreSQL Issue

angelikmayhem — Sat, 08 Feb 2020 23:01:24 +0000

Hi. Just downloaded the newest version of Daz Studio (4.12.0.86) via the Install Manager (1.4.0.17), both of which are the 64-bit version. I went to log in (Connect -> Login) and got the following error message:

Connecting to DAZ 3D (sic) requires a valid connection to a PostgreSQL CMS database. A database connection could not be established. Check for the following potential causes:
PostgreSQL application files are not installed, (sic) or are not installed correctly. (sic)
Anti-Virus (sic) software has quarantined PostgreSQL application files.
Firewall software/hardware is blocking the connection to PostgreSQL CMS.
The current user does not have permissions to execute PostgreSQL application files.

#1, No new anti-virus updates today.

#2, No new firewall updates today.

#3, I'm an administrator.

I was using the program earlier today, was logged in, and had done two renders. The program was working just fine until I updated five minutes ago when I ran DAZ Install Manager. Now I can't log in. Just so you know.

Textures Grey'd out

How can I combine morphs?

Flortale — Sat, 08 Feb 2020 09:45:11 +0000

I GOZ'ed Genesis 8 into Zbrush and made some custom morphs, but now I want to merge those morphs into a single morph. Is that possible?

I'm too tired to keep working, but if I shut down my computer now, then I'll have to resume tomorrow, which means making more morphs. It would be nice to be able to combine these morphs into one.

What way do you install studio?

How to use G2M (and other Legacy Male) uvs on G3F/G8F and vice versa

Ntutbolt_f336310261 — Sat, 08 Feb 2020 03:49:22 +0000

Hello everybody. I have recently gotten the Genesis 2 Raven morph and wanted to transfer the Female version to G3F. Transfering the morph went well but when trying to transfer the skin using Legacy UVs, it came out complete wrong. After some more investigation, I realized that the original morph used the G2M base uvs instead of the G2F uvs. Is there a way to use g2m uvs on g3f (and other legacy uvs of the opposite sex for g3/g8 for future reference)?

Daz3D not recognising / finding content downloaded from ShareCG.com [Solved]

Mark T — Sat, 08 Feb 2020 15:11:14 +0000

Hi all

Another newb-like query from me.

I've downloaded a couple of models by The Vanishing Point on shareCG.com.

TVP's instructions for installation are pretty clear in his enclosed text file: I basically need to copy folders of files to various loactions within my Daz Content folder (which in my case is on an external RAID system). Specifically, I need to copy things into Data, Props and Runtime.

I've done this several different times and launched Daz, but nothing is appearing under Props (which is where TVP says the model should be located).

It may be famous last words, but I'm certain I'm copying things to the correct loactions.

My Daz install is running perfectly well for everything else.

Anyone care to take a guess as to where I'm going wrong?

FYI: I'm running Daz 4.12.0.86 on an iMac running MacOS 10.15.3 (Catalina).

Any guidance or suggestions appreciated.

Issues with Iray

Shagge — Mon, 24 Apr 2017 23:50:48 +0000

I am using daz 4.9.3.166 when i render my system jumps straight to using the cpu for some reason. Below is the information from the log file. Now i have it set to only use the video cards. Tried using it with SLI on or off to see if anything changes no luck.

The setting is the generic one provided in MICK - Great Hall. I have the character on the stairs. Only one camera no head lamp using sun in sky. I am running into this issue with most of my renders and i'm trying to figure out what is going on i'm not sure what all is needed to figure out whats causing this. But Iray has been horrible for me since 4.9 came out.

I have the following installed.

I7 -4790k cpu

32 gb of ram

2 512 ssd drives (yes daz and all of its files are on the ssd drives.)

2 Nvidia GeForce GTX 960s

Setting up Daz across 3 PCs on Home network-tips?

sunnyjei — Thu, 06 Feb 2020 20:13:29 +0000

Hopefully some of you Daz experts with experience can chime in to help this newbie :) I have my main desktop that I've been using for creating scenes and rendering in Daz but I want to improve my workflow. I have an older pc and a decent laptop that aren't being used and I'd like to change that. Has anyone successfully done this (use multiple pcs in your home network to destribute some of the rendering) and have any tips, a link to a tutorial(s), or details on how they did it? I would mainly like to create scenes on my main pc (currently its the only one with Daz and Daz library), save the files, control the pc in the other room from my main pc to send it files to start rendering as well as my laptop. My 3 PCs are all currently connected to the home network via wifi but I haven't set up any kind of remote access/control. Looking online I see a lot of info but I wonder if any of you have specific tips related to making it easier since I mainly want to do this to move rendering off my main pc.

Again any help would be appreciated!

RTX 2080ti or x2 2070

hansmolleman33 — Fri, 07 Feb 2020 12:08:09 +0000

Im looking into getting a new computer and I understand that the more CUDA cores your graphic card has the faster the render will be (in general).

If I buy two RTX 2070 I will have more CUDA cores than a single RTX 2080ti and the price would be cheaper too

Does DAZ take advantage of having dual cards or the software use only one card when rendering ?

Thanks.

Hello I have 2 GTX 570 cards. I am unable to get them to IR render. I tried to make a simple cube with no luck.

Thank You for your help.

Scene doing wierd things??

Daventaki — Mon, 20 Jan 2020 07:48:51 +0000

I am using Willow Creek from Stonemason. I don't really think its something with the scene though because I have used it before with no trouble. Tonight for some reason my cameras keep going wonky and I have to reset them. And im using the Hivewire3D Horse from Poser, which I have used before with no problem, but for some reason the horse keeps getting broken like the back will have a big hump in it and the legs at the joints will not be lined up. I should have caught a screen shot but for now I have deleted the horse from the scene. Also the back of the horse looks like I applied a metal texture and its the default texture that comes with the horse, even after I apply the uber surface shader. Will try to grab a screen when I re-add the horse.

Show Only Wishlist Items Checkbox Filter

I appreciate the impulse sale value of browsing through huge lists of products that are on sale but there are (many) times I just want to find out "is this the day I give you guys money?" If you would like me to answer 'yes' more often, it would REALLY help if we could click a checkbox and filter for [Only show Items in my wish list]. Then I could immediately say "oh yeah. I've wanted that for a while now. On sale? Wooo, put it in the cart ASAP!"

DOF not working right....

Daventaki — Fri, 07 Feb 2020 04:49:20 +0000

My DOF has suddenly stopped working like it was previously? I set it up just like I always do but even though my character is in the middle of the panels she is coming out blurry.

Pic 1 is dof settings, Pic 2 is DOF off, Pic 3 is DOF on
