So my question is; does a person really care if there's duplicate formulas, other than the annoying popup?

Thank you

I was just wondering the exact policy for using Daz Originals models for game development once purchased (by a developer). I'm not fully clear from reading the IP policy if this falls under the permitted copying or not. 

thanks in advance!

When I try to export Genesis 3 female I see some bad geometry around the ears, this has also happened to Victoria 7. Victoria 4 works fine. Can somebody please tell me what's happening. Thanks. Here is a snap shot  .

Help me Emma and Jordi, you're our only hope!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm having issues using Emma and Jordi G3F hair on my G8F character. The hair loads fine on G8F, fits to the character and is perfectly great. Then if you change her height (the default height morph) to make a shorter character the hair moves down her face until the top of the hair is in line with her eyes, but the hair still conforms like it was positioned correctly. I've looked at the "bones" and they move correctly except the head "bone" (in parenthesis so as not to confuse with skull, lol) which seams to move independently of the rest of the bone. It doesn't happen with any of the other hair I have, but it does happen with 4 of the 5 Emma and Jordi do's. Scarlett hair is the only one that conforms correctly with height but I can't for the life of me figure out why.

I want to purchase them, but it seems the correct price isn't showing

And then after a few hours it started to slow down.

And slower.

And today when I tell DAZ to drape or anything, it only uses 10% of my CPU. It maxes there, will no be moved.

I've tried looking at multithreading - that's on and supported. I have 6 cores.

I've looked in the preferences settings for DAZ. No answers there.

The internet has only yielded on August discussion here where someone else was having the same issue. No answers posted.

I can't work liks this, guys! *falls to ground shaking fists at the heavens* WHY is it not using all of its resources?!?!?

In Daz Studio:

The render:

FWIW, most of the materials are in the Daz Connect library, but obviously, I can't save the additional screen to that folder. Also, I applied the rose screen through the preset materials in the content pane - it's a .duf file - in order to locate the surface that needed to be changed. I can add the screen in postwork, but I'd love to figure out what's going on. Any suggestions or ideas?

ETA: Apparently, I just should have waited longer - at 64%, I can definitely see my screen becoming clearer.

Someone made this Geoshell Stocking displacement freebie, which I thought was cool, and since all female Anime characters are required to wear thigh-high's, I was going to try it.  I needed to lower it a little on the leg, which I could do...

Problem is that only 1/2 of the leg is displacing.  See attached.  I have a full grey image with a white line (blurred a little) for the displacement

That is applied in the Leg Displacement channel, with settings as seen.  Problem is that only the inner and back of the thigh is displacing?

(NOTE: the grid in the displacement texture is just showing so you can see where I put the line, it is jsut grey/50 in the actual applied displacement image)

Any idea why the displacement is not going around the thigh? 

No other lights produce results either.

This is a new scene, I just put a figure in there and applied the lights, so it probably isn'tanything i did to the scene.

I'm new to daz. Is this normal, or...?

Thanks

What makes it even more confusing is this problem appears at random. In some scenes OMB renders fine even with hair while in many (or perhaps most) other scenes I get this problem. What gives?

I have a Gen3F character who is displaying unexpected eye issues. When I select her head and try to use the eye side-to-side, one eye goes up, and the other down. Similarly, eyes up-down causes them to go one left and one right... you get the picture. What causes this? I have looked in param settings to no avail.

Thank you!

I'm trying to fit some armor suit (M2) to a genesis figure...is that even possible?...mostly the pauldrons. A friend of mine also tried to convert Kadis legendary armor set for G3F to G3M and found heavy distortion in the Pauldrons...any tips please?

This isnt a showstopper but really really annoying. 

I'm working with the 4.10 beta currently. Most everything works well insofar as plugins go. But GenX2 is not. The tool window shows up as normal, but I am unable to click on any buttons to load a figure into the plug in, or drag/drop ones (such as Victoria 3 or Michael 4). I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling the plugin and its add-ons several times, and changing the destination folder to the new/beta location on my H/D. It still won't work. I have also restarted/disabled the plug in, to no avail.

I'm running a 2015 iMac, 32GB RAM, and a AMD Radeon M380 Graphics card.

How do I get rid of jagged edges when rendering? Thanks.

I created an in-door scene using a bedroom element from "Dream House" and some Gen3 figures.

With and without added lights, 3DeLight renders work just fine.

With IRAY, it's like the spotlights and distant lights are not seen during the render.

I set all my IRAY render settings to default.  I "blinked out" all the walls and ceilings not needed, and the IRAY render behaves like the added lights are not even in the scene and I am running off the organic DOME light from the IRAY environment settings.  I tested with DOME ONLY/SCENE ONLY and combo settings.

Am I missing a setting in the lights? or in the render settings?

The shopping cart Icon tells me I have one item in my cart.

When I click the icon and go to the cart it tells me my cart is empty.

When I go to the item I want to buy it tells me it is already in my cart and won't let me add it.

How can I pay for it, if it on one hand tells me I already have it in my cart, but also tells me my cart is empty?

Please help. :-)

It takes me a long time to make the adjustments and correctios, when- for some scenes- I wish to simply reduce the brightness and make the skin appear...less plastic, and more real.

I don't need special lighting for these particular scenes,just a faster (easy as possible) way to make quick adjustments (usually for large or medium-size interior shots).

My computer is pretty decent and it seemed like the only thing that I could really upgrade that would make a lot of difference would be the video card. The 980 Ti is certainly no slouch but it had 6 gigs of memory and the 1080 Ti has 11. 

Prior to receiving the 1080 Ti, I ran a render. Pretty simple one. Just a bust shot with Render Studio lights. With the 980 Ti, the render took 34 minutes.

With the new video card having nearly twice the VRAM, I expected to see a significant reduction in render time. But I didn't. Without Optix Acceleration, it finished up at 25 minutes.

With Optix Acceleration, it wrapped up at 22 minutes.

Any thoughts on what I can do to increase the speed? I honestly expected to shed more than 10 or 12 minutes by putting in this video card. 

Thanks!

However, I'm having a problem when it comes to merging material into a scene. For example, if I load a pair of flip-flops or shorts onto the scene, it appears as the default and double-clicking one of the other material options will not change its appearance. Likewise, with the Charm hair, it appears in its flat-untextured white form, and double clicking one of the other material colors won't change it, not unless it's the absolute first thing I load before anything else. In fact, it seems like anything will only change its material/color if it's the very first thing I load; trying to do it afterwards won't do anything.

I have uninstalled this program and reinstalled it, but it's still happening and I don't understand why that is.

A look at the log shows this whenever I try to merge something:

So, what is going on here?
