Also this says Daz Studio Standard. Is there a pro version? I don't think the one on my Mac says standard...

Anyway, here's the screenshot. What do I do? Thanks.

Oh I don't currently have any virus software installed.

Midnight Lycan for Genesis 3 Male is the new werewolf character for Genesis 3 Male. A custom character with 2nd shin bones and custom weight maps. With huge fangs and long claws and fully conforming FiberMesh fur and torn knee length jeans, plus 8 custom Lycan expressions. 4K textures in lite and dark skin tones. With 8 eye presets in red blue green and yellow which come with a glowing eyes version in both Iray and 3Delight materials.It works well with standard morphs and figure shapes like Michael 7, Kimo 7 and Gianni 7. Be on the lookout out for the Lycan poses pack which will give him an even more menacing look to him. It's a must have for all you fantasy and horror fans!

OK normally don't post this type of stuff, but this guy is a bit different so view the utube tutorial video first before you use him. He's out on the 17th. All the best !

Why Upgrade?

Our development philosophy is simple with each new version: 1. Make the software more user-friendly by simplifying operations. 2. Make the output better with every new release.

Compared to the previous release HeadShop 10.0, HeadShop 10.2 offers two important upgrades and changes.

1. Simplification of the set-up process from two screens to a single screen. Add headshape dots to get the correct headshape right from the start

2. Combination of shapedots and texture dots on work area. Now the same dots move both.

These improvements result in 50% less steps and better head-shapes at the output. We have also updated the manual and fixed some How-to video links.

I hope you enjoy the improvements!

As one thing is very noticeable in a render, it is the texture distortion you get when you use a figure that is not quite 'standard', be it a bigger, taller, shorter, more busty or flatchested character. A great chance the render will not look that nice because of the strechting of 'textures with a pattern' in all the 'wrong' places. Of course, it won't be possible to get a fix for all situations, but is it very difficult to come with a clothing model that has more than one uv-map option? The only clothing that comes to mind that has such an option (as I have that item  ) is http://www.daz3d.com/mall-girl-for-genesis

I've also noticed another clothing item at an other store that offers some different uv-map options (in that case for use with 'Skyler').

Again anyone any thoughts on this? I'm not a modeler, so I've got no notion how much extra work it is to create it (apart from the extra testing that will be necessary; having done some testwork myself, I'm well aware that modeling it is just one part of the job.....).

For one thing, sometimes I'd like to know 'am I being unusually sensitive about what someone is saying, or is there a bunch of similar sentiments?'

For another, sometimes I'm really curious to know if I've rubbed a lot of people the wrong way...

As what I have to save a geometric shell as preset to have also the selected visibility (on/off) of "shell bodyparts" and "visibility bodyparts" next to the surface parameters?

Example: One preset should have a surface for the face next to the surface for the body, the second version not. So for the first version I turn visbility for the face "on" and have also the surface paremters for the face in the second version I want no surface for the face just for the body so I have no surface parameters for the face and turn the visibility for the face "off". Both versions saved as properties preset. If I load the first version I have both the surface for the face and for the body but I load the second preset I have the surface for the body but the default surface for the face and the visibility is not turned "off". So it seams that a shell saved as properties preset did not save the parameters for shell parts visbility (on or off) and also not the offset distance value. So it seams properties preset is not the correct one for a geometric shell.

SOLVED: Forgot to check also "others" in the save menu

But in general most websites seem to be optimized for desktops, despite the fact that the Internet wants to go with you everywhere... But desktops are heavy and extension cords usually max out at 100ft... Or there is an assumption because of the prevalence of texting, people need to be in vertical mode so they can thumb type... ? 

Just curious.

Bought this pack awhile back... which is pretty excellent, except for this issue. Don't understand why there is a head in the worker helmet, especially when you have a shaded over helmet lens (black or gold) Really all we need is a rigged suit, when we have a shaded helmet lens we really don't need to see a face.

I have issues with this content because the way it is rigged the head and the helmet don't seem to be "synchronized to work together". The head moves outside the helmet.  The head doesn't move with the helmet. The head has more movement range than the helmet.

It probably wouldn't matter if the characters were used without a helmet, which defeats the purpose of a space suit with enclosed air supply. I have not tried a geometry edit of the head..maybe that will work. It would be best, if you could have the face in the helmet...however the movement of the head outside the helmet is even more conspicuous. 

I am exporting out of Daz3d using FBX for use of the content in IClone 6 for a video project. 

Regardless, any suggestions would be appreciated.

Anyone know how to do this effect?

I have no problems with the hair, pants, or boots, but I'm striking out on the top. "Bodysuit" and "leisure suit" turn up nothing suitable either here or at Rendo. Maybe there's a jacket out there that I could hack into the appropriate shape? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Also, is there a list of the "7" figures that have their own UVs? I've only bought one "7" figure and I want to start getting more of them, but I'm leery about getting any with their on UV as the point is to be able to use as many skins/textures as possible on my characters. I really don't want any characters with their own UVs. 

Since Teen Josie 7 is in the Mega Fast Grab I'm considering getting her - but want to know first if she has her own UVs. 

Im experiencing 4.8 issues in 4.9 and im not sure what im doing wrong. I updated my drivers, installed 4.9, and updated the Default Recources for DS4.9. One of the first issues I tested out was the one that 4.8 had with sci fi boots for g3f. https://www.daz3d.com/downloader/customer/files#prod_23496

Im having the exact same issue. I try to render the boots and Daz never gets the render going. I have to task manager quit in order to cancel the render.

Have I forgotten to update something?

something about caustic sampling

thanks!

Iray Light Portals

Light Portals allow you to “hint” to the renderer the location of openings where light might naturally come in through windows for interior scenes. Since sun and sky lighting can often be too bright for indoor scenes, these portals account for how much and where light enters a room. How effective these portals are at “guessing” where light might appear is dependent on your scene and how large the “windows” in the scene are.

im hoping im doing the right thing by letting you know this...

One of my biggest inspiration and one of the vendors that has helped me boost my carrer is having serious health and financial issues...to be most precise he has cancer in a serious condition....

i wouldnt say it publically if he didnt wrote that comment to me on deviant art so i guess he is ok with that....

Deviney or Ron....you probably know him as Rons brushes is the guy im talking about....

for years he is creating THE most AMAZING brushes on the whole world....actually every great artist i know uses them....

so i was trying to think what could i do to help him, besides buying as much brushes of his as i could...it was the very least i could do for him....

i guess what im trying to say is ....if everyone is having some or none of his brushes ..please visit his store and show your appreciation to him and your precious support by buying some of his products....

http://www.daz3d.com/deviney

you will not regret it for sure...

his brushes are part of every image im creating....im attaching some of them

p.s. Ron doesnt know anything about it...it was my iniative to do something like that...hope you will not missunderstand my proposal...it comes straight from a pure thought....please forgive my lack of english...its not my native language...

thank you all in advance!

im praying for him to get well soon ...everyday!

On my website, to help promote the board game,  I wanted to show some of the creatures in 3D by uploading them to Sketchfab. All the creatures are made using Genesis 2 base with morphs etc.

Is it within the EULA to upload a model as an .obj to Sketchfab as long as the model cannot be downloaded by other people?

Has anyone found a set of UV tiling and offset numbers that worked? Or is this a fruitless experiment?

Thanks!

Particularly, pads, shirts, gloves, etc. Examples below:
