i am working on a project,a triler for a game and i need to know how its exactly with licenses.so if i buy a product from daz what can i do and i can not do.i tried to read licensing agreement but i dont found an answer for my problem.for example,if i buy a product i have all the rights for that? i can use that in any projects? if i build a scene with one of those products can i sell my project? if i make my game and i will use some procducts purchased from daz should i pay extra for using? can i use parts from a model or scene in another project can i sell that? actually what i can do with that models i buy?

thank you and excuse for my english

Is there any way to adjust the size of the red/yellow dot that appears around a selected vertex in the geometry editor?

It's huge by default, and makes it quite hard to accurately select vertices in dense areas of the mesh.  Google fu was no help.  Thanks!

Why is that? Am I not doing something that would accomplish this feat?

Thanks :)

Does Daz Studio has any way to automated renderings? Like a list of .duf files, where when one is ready, it start rendering the next?

If Daz Studio don't have such thing, anyone ever heard about a script that can do this? It shouldn't be much complex. Entries like:
Step 1:  duf_file_folder duf_file image_folder image_name
Step 2:  duf_file_folder duf_file image_folder image_name
Step 3:  duf_file_folder duf_file image_folder image_name

It would increase productivity at large scale. The creator would just prepare the scenes in his free time, and let the PC work for the rest of the day.

Thanks in advance for your help

I'm not exactly new to 3d however I'm coming from the 'sketchup' side of things.

My question is about 'scaling' I'll try to be a brief as I can.

In most 3d applications you have scaling in the x y and z axis and daz has this as well.

I'm trying to create a figure with stunted proportion these are called 'chibis' in anime circles.

Big head little body.

When I try to rescale parts of the body the thighs for example there is only one slider available and it scales in all three axis. There doesn’t seem to be a way to unlock the slider or access the other sliders using the parameters tab.

This is the Genisis 2 female figure I'm tinkering with.

I apologize if this is a dumb question but the manual has not been very helpful at this point.

I'm accessorizing wardrobes and sometimes want to change the order that clothing sits on the figure.

Where are those settings or are they permanently baked into the props/clothing?

So I have recently purchased the Reality plugin, and was trying to install it.  However, when I run the installer, I get this message.

The configuration file /private/var/folders/xp/v_ddm5v56jg7bw7q06jd6n9c0000gn/T/AppTranslocation/3EB8C137-0BB6-42B6-BF8D-EB3A4EAA4B44/d/RealityInstaller.cfg is missing. This installation cannot continue.

Any idea what is causing this and how to fix it?

Thanks!

Now I have a new computer, so I downloaded my products again and this time the base figures are in a zip file with no exe to install them. I don't have any trouble with where to put things, I know that drill. What I need to know is how to get those .bat files to update the figure to accept new morph sets like Creature Creator, Hiro, etc. When I load morphs right now they all just pile up in a jumbled list and there's no separation (i.e. Eye, Eyeball, Nose, Mouth). So figure updating has changed and I need to know how to get it to work.

Generally it has been successful, but I am wondering about content that has been installed to DS. I had thought this content would not be indicated as I had selected PP.

Also as I examine the content to be installed to PP it does not list the V4 figure items, such as V4 morphs, or V4 itself. Should the content installed to DS not be excluded if it is going to be installed to PP now..... ?

What do I need to do?

Thanks.

Inspired by http://download.daz3d.com/forums/discussion/134401/how-to-create-our-own-hdri-from-a-scene-in-daz I've been experimenting with creating HDRIs from existing scenes/environments, and I'm comfortable with the basics (thanks so much to the OP and responders to that thread, and to the Daz team for implementing this kind of stuff).

I'm rendering with Lens Distortion Type = Spherical, and have a Canvas = Beauty, which is outputting an EXR fine, which I then post-process in Photoshop Image->Adjustments->HDR Toning, which gives me a 4700x2000 EXR, zoomed-out screenie attached. This looks fine at distance. However, looking close up, I get noise/fireflies as per second screenie.

I've tried Firefly Filter = Enabled and Noise Filter = Enabled, but those don't seem to resolve it.  I think I'm probably doing something daft in the way I render the Beauty Canvas (which is new to me, I'm still learning/practicing on canvasses), but does anyone have tips on what I may be doing wrong, and could suggest where I could improve my image? For example, would more ambient lighting help, I've seen grain similar to this in underlit scenes before?

Thanks

PS: I'm using Daz Studio 4.9.3.166 Pro 64bit Beta if that helps

With the 1080 The number will increase or it will be the same?

I've tried playing with each property separately to figure out what it does, but now I'm only more confused than before. Any insight would be much appreciated. Thanks!

to fit, for example (but not the only one)

https://www.daz3d.com/rochelle-ponytail-hair-for-genesis-3-female-s

to a Genesis 2 Female. The general fit is decent but the morph presets and dials do not work at all. The product page for the female clone says it's for clothes but the autofit dialog has an option for hair.

Any suggestions to get the morphs and presets to work on the Genesis 3 hair? Is there a Gen 3 -> Gen 2 hair clone?

I know you can select all and convert to IRAY Uber, but was wondering if there's a way to just check (I don't want to select all and update all because some items I may have set just the way I like them in iray).

https://www.daz3d.com/compatibility-matrix

What I am missing is compatability of Gen Gen 2 and Gen 3.

How do they fit in? can any of the Generation 3-6 use Gen(1)-Gen 3 items?

so what I am asking is there a compatability matrix for older models ? can the current matrix be

updated to include that info ?

It would normally not be an issue but

model creators still make Gen(1) - Gen 3 assets.

In Daz, is there a way to see which shader is currently applied to object? Thanks.

I understand that Center/End Point are defined in global X/Y/Z values. The rotation order defines, how the joint is rotated. If I have a rotation of the lThighBend, it starts with the Y (Twist) Rotation, followed by Z (Side-Side) and the X (Bend) rotation.

The thing I wonder about is the Orientation. I assume these are angles in degree. Does it mean that the initial state was made by rotating the joint (aligned with the world Y-axis) first approx. 4.95 degrees around the Y-axis, then 1.92 around the Z-axis and finally 0.65 around the X-axis?

Unfortunately the FBX importer of Cinema 4D ignores the pre-rotation values and so I have to set them manually. I just wonder, if i'm on the right track with the assumtion above.

Any idea?

I have some props that elements come off or can be made transparent for the camera to get in, but how do I get a crawl space well lit?

Like if my character rummages under the bed?

In post, there's a simple adjust brightness, exposure, gamma even.

I'll have ambient light on and my skydome poppin - but how do I adjust the TOTAL brightness of a scene?

If I use a light source it usually feeds off the shadows casted from elements - like light coming through a window...

Any Daz (render + lights + environment) settings, I'm missing or (product) ideas?
