The mouth is open！！！

obj or dae is ok,but i need the fbx to iclone facial animation

But when I load my scene, or load V7 in a new scene, I get completely white eyes and full black lashes. There are no textures applyed to them.
Everything works fine in the 64bit version.

What am I missing?

This is a very quick and rough guide how to download the OctaneRender standalone demo and check the

• amount of VRAM used by geometry

• amount of VRAM used by textures

• amount of VRAM you still have remaining

• amount of VRAM that is “unavailable” for use

1) Download the demo

You can download the latest OctaneRender demo here:

https://home.otoy.com/render/octane-render/demo/

2) Install the demo

Just run the .exe and install in the default path

C:\Program Files\OTOY\OctaneRender Demo 3.04\

3) Optional: Check the manual

Maybe it helps to first have a look around in the OctaneRender manual section

https://docs.otoy.com/#rOctaneRender_Universe

4) DAZ Studio: Export a scene as .obj

Export a scene you setup in DAZ Studio as .obj and save it to a location of your choice.

Example: Shaded Haven from the Genesis 2 Starter Essentials

5) OctaneRender Demo: Select your rendering GPU

In the top left corner select

File/Preferences

Select Devices

Make sure the checkmarks are set for the GPU used for rendering

Remove the checkmarks for the GPU that is attached to your display

6) OR Node Graph Editor: Add mesh node

The Node Graph Editor (NGE) is the empty area below the viewport.

Right click in the empty NGE area and select Geometry/Mesh

Browse to the .obj you saved and open it

7) OR Node Graph Editor: Add a “Render target”

In OctaneRender the “Render target” is a node that contains all the settings you need to set up your render including camera, environment and kernel settings.

Right click in the empty NGE area and select “Render Target”

Draw a pin connection from the geometry node to the render target node

Left click on the render target node to start rendering

8) Display VRAM information

In the top left corner select

File/Preferences

Select Devices

Now you can see detailed information how much of your VRAM is used.

1. Engine runtime data

2. Geometry

3. Textures

4. Film Buffer

5. Node system

6. Unavailable

Done.

Now you should be able to tell exactly how much space your scene takes in the VRAM of your GPU.

I'd like to install DAZ 4.9 on my computer but I don't want to uninstal DAZ 4.8 because I'm unsure how 4.9 will behave with my old NVidia cards. 

But I feel the need to install 4.9 because there were changes with the Translucency paramenters with the new version and every new content I buy has some Translucency issues in 4.8 so I tought that having both versions would help me.

Can anyone help me out? Thank you.

I try to make and render simple static scene in room with 3 persons in Daz 4.9. And have two issues (actually - threre are dozens of them, but I want to slove at least these two)

First - it takes like 5 or more minutes to load saved scene - simple appartment interier and characters. During load process Daz frezes 3 or 4 times. Even if scene has no lights. Is it normal?

Second - when i try to render saved and loaded scene with iRay, render process starts then freezes, then crashes after PC memory is overflowed. The rendering itself doesnt start - CPU and GPU stay calm. However, when i comopse new scene or try to render single character, everythins is OK and render takes about 3-7 minutes.

I know, my PC is old and really weak (Q9550, 8Gb RAM and MSI Lightning GTX 780 3GB) but i try to render smal pictures like 1280x960.

Is there any way to fing, what consumes all memory and crashes iRay? Is there any chance for me to continue with daz?

I'm at a loss as to what to do next. Any suggestions?

Thanks.

Anyways, her eyes are a bit larger than normal and I had to adjust the dots for the lower eyelid and the corners. But the created morph streatches the eyeballs themselves so when I use standard Bree textures, the cornea and Pupils look oblong. How do I either fix this or keep this from happening?

Has anyone else had this problem or how to fix it?

I loaded the Male Centaur actor object, but GM3 is definitely not one with his horsey self. I can see I want to hide some of the shell(s) but I'm not sure where to start.

Can someone tell me what I've neglected to do, in order to get him straightened out?

Many thanks in advance!

Sixus 1 Mantisaran being an example.

Others if triax of course work out the box

yet others like the Blind demon cannot be loaded at all

I would love some answers on this and what the differences are as I really want to use new content in Carrara like I can Genesis 3 now,

I am assuming the ones that do not work need extra editing like Misty did to the Genesis 3 character files but her workflow was removed from the forum so sadly I cannot reference it.

Does DAZ want Carrara users to buy stuff? I want to buy stuff and do but its just so hard and they are so silent on the issues, I am trying to work around them but am like a blind person with a stick trying to get a view of an elaborate room.

I want to know what I can do, edit in the duf file etc to make things work, there are products to do this by Dimension 3D and the duf format supposed to be user editable if not encrypted according to the documentation centre too, its not reverse engineering of software its user facing files.

So why are Carrara users being kept in the dark and does any one know anything that can help?

This is a hobby for me, so cheap is paramount.  I looked at SketchUp - but the free version doesn't support .obj files.  Daz has a built in bridge to Hexagon, and ZBrush, but ZBrush is $800.  No thank you.

That pretty much leaves Blender - unless anyone has a better suggestion?

I also tried other gloves for V3 on Genesis 3 but all worked correctly.

What could be wrong?

Also, what is a 'power loader'

and what is form m4, for example

studiocf and what is pupperteer studiocf?

I'm using the older Daz3, by the way.

Thanks for any help :D

It would be easy enough to click the Eyeball icon to show or hide the bones. But I'd like to make it easier still, with a Boolean Loose-Taut control on the base Rope bone that toggles between the poses by setting the child bones' visibility states. So the Loose (0) setting would Show the Loose bone and Hide the Taut bone, and the Taut (1) setting would reverse those bone visibilities.

What is the easiest way to create such a control? For example, might I rig the figure with the Loose bone visible and the Taut bone invisible, create the Boolean Loose-Taut control property, Hide the Loose bone and Show the Taut bone, and then ERC Freeze that for the control's Taut setting?

Thanks for your help!

It seems like my Daz3d library is taking up  a lot of space on one of my hard drives, and I would like to move it to an external hard-drive to save some space. Is it a simple case of moving the files in Windows Explorer to the new location, then updating the Daz3d and DIM softwares to point to the new location, or am I going to be better off uninstalling everything, and then reinstalling it all manually? I'm hoping it won't come to that, but if that's the only solution, then that's what I will do....

And if I do move it manually - is there anything in particular I need to watch out for?

Thanks in advance!

The description in the product page says "Materials are designed for Iray, but work well in 3Delight as well." If you look at the product page, the various colors are shown in the image that says "4 mats."

While the prop itself does render in 3Delight, the Fire/Mana/Necro emissive materials don't show up in the 3Delight render.

I tried applying Reflective Radiance emissives to it but it changes the entire material to emissive, which is not what I want.

Thanks if anyone can help out. I can offer a link to my files if it is allowed. I am extremely anxious about what I can and can't ask or offer. These are my guitar props. I just need help :)

Thanks :)
