I think this is causing me purple Iray render issues (I've verified it is not a kaspersky problem as others have had on the forums). Can someone help with this please?

I've also tried exporting after I imported it to Blender and it still comes out messed up in Daz Studio.

Any help would be very much appericated.

I have no problem installing content in the Poser Runtime - it shows up just fine inside DAZ Studio. But I am having trouble with the (3rd Party) DAZ Runtime folder. If I install something in a Props folder outside of the Runtime folder - it shows up inside DAZ Studio. But if I install something inside the DAZ Runtime> Library> Props folder - it never shows up in DAZ Studio. Likewise nothing shows up from the other folders in that Runtime.

Because of this, if I download something that has both Poser and DAZ files, I always have to opt for installing the Poser versions. I would rather use the DAZ Studio versions.

What am I doing wrong? How do I get the DAZ compatible files to show up inside DAZ Studio?

  Hi. The Classic Tuxedo for Genesis 3 Males has a couple of props in the Jacket - a corsage and button - which are separate and can be deleted.

  I'm having difficulty exporting a clean OBJ of the Jacket in order to (theoretically) create a new Morph for it and then reimport. (Other items exported fine.) It would be nice to do this with an Open Jacket as well. Is there anything unusual about this Jacket that I should be paying attention to in order to export?

I just purchased a product called Ron's Edge Grunge.

https://www.daz3d.com/rons-edge-grunge

I won't install in DAZ Studio because it apparently needs Photoshop CS.

I only have the Photoshop Elements software.

So my question is, can I use Ron's Edge Grunge with Photoshop Elements, or do I need to get the full Photoshop CS software?

Photoshop Elements supports brushes and frames, so not sure if it's just somehow getting this product into Elements another way, or if it simply will not install unless I get CS.

Any help would be greatly appreciated, because I really want to use the Ron's Edge Grunge and I would hate to have to return it. I am a painter, and I don't require the full Photoshop software, which is why I originally had purchased the Photoshop Elements software.

I did a quick Google for dachshund pictures.. and the Daz one has legs that are very long.

I can't work out how to shorten his legs.  There is no leg length morphs that I can find.

I love the textures, I love the face, but his unusually long legs really do stand out. 

Does anyone have any ideas on how to fix him, please?

Or will I need to try making my own morph in blender or hexagon to shorten his little legs.

It's under my Budget also.

I mostly do Static Renders under 1200 by 800 Resolution, With One or two characters and take about 1 - 1.5 hrs under Iray CPU Mode. Sometimes I do by four. Max I did was 5 and it took 1.5 hrs on 3D Light. 

My System is AMD Ryzen 2400G With 8 GB DDR4 RAM. Daz in installed on a Samsung SSD. I do not overclock. 

The second Option is GeForce GTX 1650 OC Edition 4GB GDDR5, GTX 1650 OC comes with ‘896 CUDA cores’ and operates across a 128-bit wide bus interface at speeds of 8 Gbps. 

The last card which one is in my budget is  GeForce GTX 1050 Ti, 768 CUDA cores, 4GB GDDR5, 128-bit Memory Bus, 1392 MHz Base, 1506 MHz Boost, 7 GHz Memory Clock

Or is there an easier way to just backup a directory and then restore once I switch to the new PC?

I know that third party products (Renderosity, etc.) are in the My Library folder:

c:\Users\[Username]\Documents\DAZ 3D\Studio\My Library

But I'm not sure if there is a centralized location for all the DAZ Shop installs.

I'm assuming it's somewhere under c:\Users\Public

It would be nice to have a backup.

EDIT: This seems to be a Chrome issue. Internet Explorer and Edge seem to work fine.

The outfit works as expected on G8F characters, but I noticed another oddity when I applied the foot pose to an already posed character: the entire figure returns to the default 'A' pose, except for the feet.

I haven't submitted a support ticket yet, but maybe I should (?).

For example, within the "head", there are lips / eye lids / etc and instead of clear animation of the whole head, I only want to clear the eye’s animation. 

In the "paramters setting" i can see which keys have been assigned as keyframes. But manually changing them to zero over there does not seems to save..

Any tips will be appreciated! 

I was trying to get some big sleeves to fit the G8F using the Transfer Utility. However it seems like whatever options I choose, the result is a big destortion... I did delete the rest of the body using the geometry tool to eliminate any interference with the arms. What's the best way to deal with big sleeves? Is it even possible?

Appreciate any help, thx in advance!

cheers

It is a pretty nice set, but the one problem I have with it is that each prop in the set has multiple frames and is set to animate (move) as you advance frames, and it is not a camera issue, as I tried this in perspective mode.

I tried clearing and zeroing the animation from the props, but to no avail.

I do not have any issues with Tesla3D's products, as one of their products, the New Bank,interior, is pretty good and does not have the same problems like their Hospital Corridor set does.

I do plan on purchasing another hospital set to accompany this scene someday, but I cannot go ahead with it if this problem with the Hospital Corridor cannot be fixed.  Is there any way for me to have the Hospital Corridor set remove the animation so that it stays in place on every frame?

I'd like to

• Export a full-body morph of a female character, and to
• Apply it on a male figure.

How to save that morph preset and how to apply it?

Do I need https://www.daz3d.com/shape-rigger-plus to avoid any distortion?

Would https://www.daz3d.com/body-mixer-bundle-for-genesis-3-and-8-male-and-female allow me to apply it on one part at the time?

Thank you for your help in advance! :D

I've followed the tutorial video that comes with this product, to make an initial state morph. When I've finally got the morph available via Morph Loader Pro, as I crank it up to 100% on the hair, the hair moves off of the G8's head instead of just reshaping in place. I've followed the tutorial as closely as I can, but I cannot get this to not happen. Has anyone else tried this successfully?

Thanks,

Donald

A similar thing happens when I enable headlight on the camera.

Happens in freshly made scenes (say, a basic G8 model + camera + the primitive parented to the camera)

Here's what I do:

1. create a camera (Camera 1)

2. create a primitive object (doesn't matter which type)

3. parent primitive object to camera

4. switch from Perspective view to Camera 1

5. enable Iray in the viewport

Had this problem for years at this point. Recently formatted to Windows 10 and reinstalled DAZ multiple times. The issue is still around. Recall using the headlight frequently in past projects just fine (with Iray), but nowadays its quite the hurdle to work with.

Using GPU only for rendering. Enabling CPU/tinkering with devices in general doesn't fix it

Tried changing up OpenGL/viewport settings at Edit>Preferences>Interface, no results

Adjusted my NVIDIA settings so that DAZ will use my 1080 (it already did but worth a shot)... did not fix it.

Unparenting the primitive immediately resolves the issue. Not preferable solution. I would like to use headlights and primitives with my camera (lets me do neat coloring/lighting stuff one may do post-render.)

Disabling Iray in the viewport and using for example texture shaded does not have this issue. But preferably I want to avoid jumping in and out of Iray, everytime I want to adjust my camera.

Been googling around for a similar problem, but I've found nothing similar. There was one thread about a laggy viewport, but I had already applied the 'fix' mentioned there. Did not fix my camera issue.

Having the same issue? Tell me about it, what have you tried to fix it? If I'm alone with this then I may actually be cursed :/

I have a figure with a lot of morphs applied to her and the clothing, so much so that the save file for her and the clothes are 60MB which is more than 5x all other figures in the scene.  It takes a ridiculously long time to load this one figure and I'm trying to figure out a way to simply it and speed it up.  Is there a way to take all of the morphs currently applied to her and merge them in permanently and export/import the character back so that this is a "fresh" character? Would that reduce the file size and load time?  Now that I have all of these morphs applied I don't need to change them anymore and I can use that as a "base" for this figure?

Is this sort of thing possible?

Thanks!

I have OptiXprime acceleration checked along with my gpu

I am getting this artifacts in daz studio ( look at attachement please), if I pull the object up about 20 units the artifacts disapear.

And I have the ground off in the enviroment.

Does anyone knows what this is?

Thanks 

I know that this product https://www.daz3d.com/bath-towel-and-poses-for-victoria-8 was orginally designed to be used with V8 but I was wondering if it could in any way be used with G3 characters also or would poses and morphs just be too far off?

Thanks!

I only found one forum topic specifically on the topic of this card, so I was hoping to see if I could find more feedback before deciding on it specifically.

Max I can spend at this point is $300, but I'd prefer to go lower.

Previously this computer also ran a GTX 675m card, which is what I will be replacing, but that card died a about a year ago before I started with Daz. I used that one for Photoshop CS6 with a lot of heavy-duty layering.

I primarily use IRay for rendering in Daz, and my computer currently relys on CPU to render scenes... which does work, but takes a while to render at the detail I prefer.

Are there any problems you know of when using the GTX 780 with the above specs?

Well... I'm trying to make an OpenGL render of a scene in Daz. I have done this before, and I know you have to set the OpenGL render to jpg. so that the transparencies don't show in the hair (hair looks white if left on png.) But something strange happened on my last OpenGL render. Even tho the render is set to jpg. you can see the small png. white and grey squares in the hair. Even when something is in the background of the head, the little white and grey squares can be seen. I've tried to tweak the transparency and opacity in the surface settings of the hair, but the little white and grey squares still show up...

Anybody know what this is happening? :/
