I'm not really sure what to search for on Google. So, I was wondering if someone could point me in the right direction to a tutorial, please?

I'm looking for a tutorial which tells/instructs you on how to make Autofit/clone/compatibility preset(?).

Example: When you use a piece of clothing on G3F, but it was originally made for V4. You have an Autofit box that appears, then you have to tell Daz who the item originally belonged to.

I'd like to try and make an autofit/clone/compatiblity preset so I could have more clothes for Star!

I really hope this makes sense, as I'm totally rubbish at explaining things. Apologies for the bad title too.

Thanks for any help :3

I'm thinking of a beach scene with the sun right over the ocean before it starts sinking into the sea...  I was thinking of taking an image and mapping it onto a plane.  I'm not worried about the lighting of it - I can use distant lights for that, but I was just wondering how others have solved the problem of having the sun visible in a render.

Does a sun model exist in the store? I found lots of beaches and summer scenes but nothing specific for Sol.

Thanks in advance for your great ideas.

1. How in the world can I get the transfer utility to get morphs from the Head? It never gets morphs for the ears and so on.

2. How can I get the mesh to stop raising way above the head and/or the G1/G2/G3 area?

It's something even after watching many Tutorials I still can't seem to get right. Maybe I am missing something?

If nobody knows from just the people who see this post here I guess I will have to try to contact: Mec4D, Matari3D and/or Laticis Imagery and see if they aren't too busy lol

I wanted to to make a full upper head FiberMesh hair that will follow the jaw and so on.

Thanks in advance~!

I was also desperately unhappy to find that the other awesome looking mask in the promo art is a makeup option, instead of a fitted prop. Which is probably not a bad way to go for that sort of thing but means it can't be held by someone else after an unmasking, or appear on a  surface while they're getting suited up, etc. Those are minor quibbles at best. Also I'm guessing you can't use it on anything other than another G3F?

i'se still an iray newbie, 

those overhead Y lights, are those the source of light in the scene,
so if i load this interior scene the lights are all setup and ready to render?

or would i need to add lights and configure?  

is there such a thing as ambient light and occlusion shadows in iray?

Thanks!

So I have a beaded neclece, as you can guess it deforms horribly when the Lower Neck is bend front-back or side-side, I understand that fixing it with JCMs is the way to go and I sucessfully attached the JCM N1 - it works perfectly - the lower neck bends to 40, the morph applies and the beads don't distort. The issue I'm having is that I than bend the neck the other way to - 40 and again it distorts. So I limit the first JCM to only be 0 to 100 and create and load the second correction morph - it works just fine... Except that I can't add it to the Lower Neck Side-Side bend - it is simply not there anyrmore... Hidden or something?

So how do I make one JCM applay when the bone is bend at 40 to 0 and the second to applay when it's at 0 to -40?

That way it would stop me drooling over things I can't afford lol :)

Plese, for the Love of God, don't "decorate" your darling figure outfits with barbed wire or thorn ribbons or big fat metal spikes all around their legs or arms. These poor creatures need to walk or do things with their hands, which they can't do with these "decorations" without seriously injuring themselves.

Agreed, it looks impressive, threatening, really badass, but I love them too much to let them bleed to death from mere walking.

(Besides the nifty fact that they themselves would shredder their lovely outfits just by moving)

Hypothetically, let's say you get an idea for an outfit, but something similar (not exactly the same, but similar) already exists, though for an older generation figure by a different artist.  How old does that previous item need to be before you'll go ahead and make it?  Old enough that Autofit isn't an option?  Or is the new generation enough "difference", especially for something that's somewhat codified (say, a Pirate outfit, or police uniform, or even a basic bikini)?

Does anyone know of any decent fur clothing items for V4-G3 females?

I'm more interested in  shoulders, pants and a fur covered cloak.

I'm also looking for a full length mink kind of like what "Cruella de vil" would have worn.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Whever I try to add an aniblock to my Genesis 2 Female model (who has Lilith added to her), she disappears from the screen/viewport. I've even tried locking the Translate sliders in the parameters menu. But she still disappears off screen...   

I'm just wondering if they (aniblocks) only work on the G2 base figures with no character, or other morphs added to the model.

Is there any chance someone could post renders of the phantoms without the skulls attached?  I'm just thinking that the effects could be useful as magic spells and the like, but I have less than zero interest in the skull mastheads.  (Like, they actively turn me off from the product.)  I'd love to see some Iray renders without those, if anybody picks it up...

Also, for someone who doesn't own any of the aforementioned products, which path would you steer them on?  I'm really just wondering in terms of terrain generation how the featuresets measure up.

Thanks!

Buuuut I keep getting this weird Upside Down effect; there is this black shadow dimension appearing.

Which doesn't make sense. The code should only be returning a result between 0 and 1. I've tried using Abs, squaring it, doing all sorts of weird stuff, but... it keeps stubbornly sending out DEMON SNOW.

Anyone have a clue where to start poking?

The top bit of this image looks right. The bottom bit has me shouting and scaring the dog.

Are there no custom morphs included? There is nothing mentioned on the product page about morphs at all. I assume this means there aren't any and its relying on autofollow.

Can someone post a picture of the material zones? In particular I'm wondering if you can make this outfit sleeveless via transparent arm material settings.

I very much like the design of the outfit, particularly the collar, I'm just wondering how limited customization options are. It would help to know in order to make a buy decsion.
