I'd just bought the Millenium SubDragon and had it already installed as shown in my IM (installed items tab) (here's the link to the screenshot: https://cl.ly/62cc05d50af2), yet I cannot find any *duf archive and the only thing I see either on my smart content or my Content Manager(even within the Poser items-as I read, yesterday, on other posts related to this issue) is the SubDragon LE (which was automatically installed the very first time I had installed DAZ (back in October 2018). Note that the image bellow shows the ONLY file found under Millenium Subdragon, otherwise (whether is dragons or creatures-->land/air) the only 'actor/figure' shown in SubDragon LE.

Also: Wondering if the visible checked marks within the IM installed tab means something, because there is none related to the Millenium SubDragon items (?)

I had bought a couple of items to enhance the Millenium SubDragon possibilities but I am unable to use them as I cannot load/see/find it.

What can I do? What am I missing?

Many thanks in advance.

I have daz 4.10 for what it's's worth

These things are WAY brigher in the pictures and I'm out of ideas. 

Any suggestions helpful including good reads, websites, and suggestions from your own experience. I don't expect a legal opinion but just want to be pointed in the right direction.

I can find transforms for movement but not for scale

I made a boo boo sizing a charactor when keymate not set to start. Now when I run animaiton the charactors keep scaling up and down in size. When I make this mistake in x,y,z I just delete those on the time line.

How do I delete scales in size from timeline without totally screwing up all the posing I did?  Clear animation wipes out all of my work and resets all poses.

This may seem like a trivial question, but I was wondering if there is a way to remove the grey thumbnails from DAZ Studio Smart Content tab for products you have uninstalled through the DAZ Install Mananger. 

I uninstalled the Backdrops (all three) and don't want them cluttering up Smart Content ... I even hid them to be out of site in Install Manager, but they show up anyway within DAZ Studio.

Deleting them from the Content Library doesn't do anything, maybe because I still own these products and they were purchased in the DAZ Shop?

See attached image. 

Any help would be highly appreciated. Thanks.

Unfortunately, I was in that state and added something to my shopping cart.  But of course you can't check out.  I logged in.  But now my shopping cart is empty.  But you cannot re-add that item from the store since it thinks you have that in your empty cart.

Zapped all history, cookies, local storage for any domain with 'daz' in the name.  Restarted browser.  Twice.  No luck.  It's as if Daz is caching this bad state on their server end.

I've spent the last 4 days trying to figure out how I can use the "System 2046 for Genesis 8 Female(s)" GeoShell's to conform to the character once imported into Unity.

I've tested all the methods I know of within Unity to change the material imports, by further changng the textures in TIF format to have transparent alpha, and chaging the respective material to cutout. This method only works with the GeoShell enabled, whilst I could deactive the shell from the FBX import in Unity and keep the textures in tact on the model, I cannot remove the black alpha components using any apparent method.

Is there a way to get around this by exporting from Daz3D?

i wont to know if MSI GTX 1070 TI ARMOR 8GO  good enough for iray render 

These returned products are no longer installed, but they have ghost thumbnails, light grey in color. They still appear in the Smart Content at the end of the list. Is there a way to remove these? Do I need to reinstall DAZ Studio to get rid of them?

I'd like to add the stars as a layer on a GeoShell, but I can't find the cutout opacity function the set the image map of the stars. Not sure where I'm going wrong. Thank you!

Is there a guide for the use of this product? I was unable to find documentation for the product.

Thanks,

I really want a hoodie for my Genesis 8 Male figures. So far all the clothing I have purchased has been for Genesis 8 Male and Female.

There is a hoodie called Mega Hoodie for G8F that is great but it doesn't fit my G8M figures. So the only other option I could find in the DAZ Shop is for:

Hoodie Outfit for Genesis 3 Male(s)

So my question is do the G3M clothes fit G8M? Or am I wasting my money by purchasing this hoodie for my figures.

Thanks for any help you can provide.

would someone have some wisdom on Idris Hair product? I am trying to get it to look like the 1st picture on the product page- all the hair back in a pony tail but it loads with this 'fringe'  bangs/sides and I can't figure out how to move that all back into the ponytail like in the picture or get rid of it.

I've tried the adjustments in the parameters tab and in shaping but no luck. There are 'tip' icons in smart content but one goes to the vendor product page and the other didnt help.

I must be missing something basic? https://www.daz3d.com/idris-hair-for-genesis-3-male-s-female-s

thanks! 

Am trying to get Gen 8 into LW but making her in a "T" pose in Daz does not transfer to LW. There is a morph for that,(arms up/down) but when adding that in modeler at only 30% the arms shrink as vertices only move in a straight line so they only go from arms down pose to arms up in a straight line. Genesis 3 is already in "T" pose so that's fine. It aseems Motion Builder needs "T" pose to charectorize.

There's no connection between the scenes (all different figures/props/etc). I have no idea why this is happening and can't seem to find my specific issue on the forums. 

Thanks!

Does anybody know this behaviour and perhaps a workaround for this?

Thank you!

ps:

The screenshot on the left shows the animation file in Blender.

The screenshot on the right shows the animation file after export from DAZ.

I love the dark red shine, and I want to put white stars on top of it to comform with the prop.

Normally I could alter the base image to inculde the white stars, change it, and we're good to go.

However, the stars do not display, because the shader colors dark red metallic flakes, and uses a black colored gloss to give it's dark shine, in turn coloring over the white stars.

I'm not entirely sure if it's the metallic flakes or the gloss color causing it, but I'd like to keep that nice dark shine with the white stars showing on top.

Does anyone have advice? Thank you.

What I'm currently doing is previewing in Iray and trying to rotate the dome or move it along the xyz axis. But this is way too slow and resource intensive, even for low res equivalents. Am I doing something wrong? Is there a quicker or better way I can position the hdri without moving the scene? Thank you.

Well, that's proven to be tricky. So, back to default values. Any idea what I'm doing wrong?

I am quite new to DazStudio and I am still trying to figure out how the shader system works so I have a couple of questions:

1. Why do some dark skinned characters show up as green in the Viewport window when I select NVidia Iray as the display mode but others do not (they are Iray skin shaders)? They seem to look normal (i.e. not green) when I do a render.

2. If I apply that same texture to both a G3 and a G8 character and do a render, the G8 charcter renders out as being darker skinned than the G3 character. How does this happen if they are both using the same shader settings?

Any help with this would be greatly appreciated.

Render settings: Dome and Scene, Infinite Sphere, Draw Dome OFF, Environment Intensity 1.6, and the rest are all set on their default settings with the exception that I have the Dome Rotation set to 75.00
