Does anyone know a way to manually adjust her teeth joints? If so, could this be accidentally reset by a customer? I hope I'm explaining myself enough. Thanks!

I downloaded Hitomi, a Genesis figure. I've been interested in doing some anime style work and, well... best choice for the task. Now, why can't I make a Genesis 8 figure with, say, a Hitomi head? Or, maybe I want to make a real-world character with big, anime eyes... or something. I'm assuming that there's some sort of hard limitations and parameters programmed into the base Genesis 8 figure to prevent this, but is there a way around it? Why can't I make a Genesis 8 figure the same shape as what's made available with Hitomi?

I've attempted to try using Dforms, but that doesn't really work, either.

thanks for any help.

i'm finding way or button that adds a material preset to object surface without overriding its existing nodes and settings(except for identical nodes and settings). i dont wish to manually set it in surface tab or shader mixer either

In Poser, the button is called 'add to material' in material library. .

how to do that in daz studio?

Also I have a nVidia GeForce GTX 680 4Gb but Daz doesn't seem to see it at all and only sees CPU for rendering. i wondering if this is Mac thing or some of my settings. Downloaded the latest nVdida drivers and makes no difference.

My Mac spces:

Mac Pro 5.1 mid 2012, 3.33 GHz 6 core processor, 32 GB RAM, OSX Yosemite 10.10.5

Also I have 2 cinema display connected, not sure if that would make a difference or not.

Thank you in advance.

I build a new PC (W10) and reinstall DIM. In a first stage after the new install, all my 7xxx downoaded and installed files with my old DIM are under the "ready to download" tab. In a second stage I mapped the "ready to install" tab with my directory where all my with DIM downloaded files are stored and my 7xxx files then appear in the "ready to install" tab.

I tried to map all the different installation directories where I installed all the DAZ stuff under the setting window (installation tab), but it didn't change anything and all the files stay in the "ready to install" tab. What am I doing wrong because I'm sure there is a way to keep all installed files recognized by a fresh DIM install on a new computer. I'm sure I already had the same problem for 3 years when I build my old PC and managed to solve that problem but cannot remember how I did it.

Thanks in advance for your help

Question is when you save a morph asset and then apply it to G8 and save as a New character, Where do the morph files go? what location?

I purchased 4x 1060's for mining ethereum and doing some 3d work as well. Meanwhile I am waiting for my pci-e risers to arrive, I have 2 of the cards installed in the system giving me a total of 12GB of VRAM to work with.

I tried to render a scene and IRAY didn't use any of my 1060's.. Since I don't know how to check for scene memory size I continued by loading a new empty scene and trying to render a single figure in dome and scene enviroment setting with a camera. Still nada.

Updated Daz Studio, still the same.

Installed  Daz Studio Beta, still nothing.

I don't know what else to do, Tried to search for a solution in searching engines but all I get are those old topics of pascal in iray yada yada.. 

I have the latest Nvidia drivers installed.

I don’t have Zbrush.

So I set the figure to base resolution and export to OBJ and import into my modeling program of choice (Blender). I make the necessary changes and export back to OBJ, in both cases using the settings that work fine for me when the figure is in the T-pose. I open up Morph Loader Pro and import my new morph and turn it on.

Vertexes go everywhere.

Am I trying to do the impossible, or have I missed a setting somewhere?

Anyone have any ideas?

Any help please would be greatly appreciated, thank you.. :)

If anyone knows of a script or some basic setting suggestions. I'm not trying to get some super photo realism, just as close to the preview window as possible. but as her pants, like so many recent products, dont even render in the OpenGL I do have to stack layers in post that way.

The GAMA is set at 2.2 and As the Set I am using is a lil pin-up studio set I recently down loaded. She is setting right in the beam of a spot at 100%; not that you could tell by the image on the left at all. I cant remember the channel;  because I could not reproduce it; but it seemed to me her flesh tone was flat, and orange which turned out to be the tone of one of the underlying layers, like the engine was ignoring her surface skin completely. And just presenting this gross, flat, underpainting.

A script the mimics the Intermediate Open GL is I think what Im Ultimately aiming for here; that would produce an image I could port to MS5 for work.

So, Terradome messed up my transparent color in the background. I need help asap.

Ok, this was the problem, you better fix this because this is a SERIOUS problem.

If someone click on the HD sky without having the TD3 atmosphere marked the HD sky replaces Daz basic transparency background. (This will happen with 99% for people who wants to try things out)

When this happen, the whole scene is completely ruined, there is no way to fix it, you must go back and delete every content about HD sky.hdr that you used and then reinstall it. NOT fun!

But otherwise Terradome is great, just fix this problem and it's set. The HD sky should NOT activate if TD3 Atmosphere is not marked.

I placed them into the hierarchy as 2ndary sub_comp. Under the character I want the jcm to work under and then I saved the jcm as morph asset.  Sometimes the morph will work under a normal g8 character (working with g8 now) instead of just under the character I want it to work under.  

Could someone walk me through the process when creating a jcm and where to place it correctly so it will only work with the character instead of the whole.

Thanks in advance.

Geometry memory consumption: 87.3477 MiB

Texture memory consumption: 5.46434 GiB

Lights memory consumption: 199 KiB   (I used "Sun/sky only" for lighting)

Material measurement memory consumption: 0 KiB

Material memory consumption: 485.516 KiB

The render is 1365x1024 in size and optimization is set for speed, not memory use.

The scene in question contains two clothed Genesis 8 females with morphs, both with the same skin texture, with two V4-era props used as background.

My question is: Did memory consumption jump up THIS much in the step from G3F to G8F?   In my simple (Probably uneducated, too) mind, 5.4 GiB seems pretty steep for just the textures, i did a render on the same system when i just got the new video card, which had 4 G3F characters wearing more complicated clothing material-wise (Metals and stuff), mesh lights, in an enclosed space, same resolution and that rendered fine, if i add two more characters in textures to the 5.4 GiB for the G8F-render, my system will go to CPU-rendering...

I noticed that as expected, G8F renders a bit slower than G3F for similar scenes (Mostly one character, simple prop background, sun/sky lighting), but the apparent jump in memory use really startled me.

I use Windows 10, and have a 6 core processor, a Titan Z and a GTX 970.  I took my computer to the shop this week to have professionals update all of my Nvidia drivers.  But the program is still crashing. 

Can you please help with some troubleshooting?

Thanks

Has anyone had an issue with duplicate formulas suddenly appearing out of nowhere? I don't mean the typical thing, where you installed something new and that particular item immeditely tells you there are duplicate formulas the first time you use it. (Or the first time you use a Genesis figure with the affected morph.) I mean, something you've had installed for a while and used without any issue, that has not been updated or changed or anything that you know of, suddenly starts throwing duplicate formula errors, and you can't figure out why?

I've had M3D Clayton for G3M installed since it came out, back in February. Have never had an issue with it. Studio has never thrown out a message on it. As far as the readme can be trusted, it's never been updated -- at least, I don't remember downloading an update via DIM.

Today, for absolutely no apparent reason that I can understand, I start getting "duplicate formula found" messages when I use G3M. When I go into the log, this is the message:

2017-07-04 17:35:01.362 WARNING: fileinput\dzassetdaz.cpp(5942): Duplicate formula found linking Value & CTRLMD_N_XRotate_40 in /data/DAZ 3D/Genesis 3/Male/Morphs/Male_M3dia/M3D Clayton For Michael 7/pJCMClaytonBodyAbsUpperLowerBendDownHD3.dsf.

How is it even possible for something to spontaneously evolve a duplicate formula issue when it's never been touched?

I removed the file from the Morphs directory, and the alert vanished, so it was definitely that file.

Even weirder, when I put a new copy of the file back -- I have the original zip, in a directory that DIM can't touch -- the error returns.

How could the error have been there all the time and not thrown off a message until now?

For that matter, is that something I can fix, or is that purely something I'd have to file a ticket on? (The file isn't compressed, but since the innards are only slightly more comprensible than Ancient Greek, I'm guessing probably not.)

It's available in DAZ 4.9.4.117 Pro Edition (64-bit) but NOT in

DAZ 4.9.4.117 Pro Edition (64-bit) Public Build...

WHY??
