      <description><![CDATA[<p>Hi all,</p>

<p>I&#39;m looking for a morph (if it exists) that makes the toes of the genesis figure look a lot more real: if left on their default setting I feel they look an awful lot like tiny sausages. There&#39;s almost no resolution there that hints to the fact that there&#39;s bones in there and almost no fat tissue to hide them. They look way to smooth to be real (especially if you try bending them). is there any morph out there that makes them look more &quot;bony&quot;?</p>

<p>Thanks a lot,</p>

<p>Me</p>

      <description><![CDATA[<p>So....I searched for G2M surface or something of the sort, after 8 pages of G3M crap, I gave up...</p>

<p>How does one actually apply IRAY the G2M genitals? I have several tools to convert G2* figures nicely, but none seem to understand the genetals (I haven&#39;t tried the females...)</p>

<p>I tried copying the Figure&#39;s Hip surface and pasted over the genital&#39;s hip and genetalia, but that left some pretty scary dark patches on the scrotum and other places...not to mention the fact that the hip region still glowed like a chinese lantern. WTF? How does one get those parts to look right? Why don&#39;t these shader tools we purchase not work properly with the &quot;nether parts&quot;? I assume G3M&#39;s privates render nicely, but I haven&#39;t tried&nbsp;</p>

      <description><![CDATA[<p>Ok, so I thought I&#39;de be smart. I&#39;m trying to combine three offers, did I miss some rule by which they should not combine?</p>

<p>1. Offer 1: Buy any new release, get 50% off DO&#39;s (excludes gift cards, new items, PC+ items) if the new release is not free</p>

<p>2. Offer 2: Buy a gift card for more than 100 dollars and a new release for more than 5 dollars and get 12% off a gift card, plus extra 4%&nbsp;</p>

<p>3. Offer 3: (Personal offer, the &quot;Thank you for supporting G3M&quot;) Buy any new release from this page&nbsp;<a href="http://www.daz3d.com/06-15-zev0-ironman" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">http://www.daz3d.com/06-15-zev0-ironman</a>, and get 5 dollars off DO&#39;s on this page&nbsp;<a href="http://www.daz3d.com/thank-you-for-your-support-featured-items" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">http://www.daz3d.com/thank-you-for-your-support-featured-items</a></p>

<p>Now, the picture shows my cart, and I think either the first offer doesn&#39;t work or you can&#39;t be stacking all of them for some reason.</p>

<p><img alt="" src="http://www.daz3d.com/forums/uploads/FileUpload/29/f1a50d52bd0ccd979a6881291b3bb9.png" /></p>

<p>According to my calculations:</p>

<p>1.Gift card = 100*0.88*0.96 = 84.48 or Gift card = 100*0.84 = 84 depending on the stacking, looks like it&#39;s the latter one&nbsp;<img alt="yes" src="http://www.daz3d.com/forums/plugins/ckeditor/js/ckeditor/plugins/smiley/images/thumbs_up.png" title="yes" /><br />
2.New item = remains the same&nbsp;<img alt="yes" src="http://www.daz3d.com/forums/plugins/ckeditor/js/ckeditor/plugins/smiley/images/thumbs_up.png" title="yes" /></p>

<p>3. Chosen DO from the list = 19.95*0.7*0.5 - 5 = 6.98-5 = 1.98&nbsp;<img alt="no" src="http://www.daz3d.com/forums/plugins/ckeditor/js/ckeditor/plugins/smiley/images/thumbs_down.png" title="no" /></p>

<p>The last calculation keeps in the account my standard 30% off DO&#39;s as a PC+ member. But the item&#39;s price still has about 1.50 dollars more.</p>

<p>I know I&#39;m complaining about cents, but still, did I miss something?</p>

      <description><![CDATA[<p>Do the vendors have an option on whether or not their products are Encrypted Daz Connect only? As a casual D/S user I&#39;ve avoided upgrading and totally dislike DRM (especially that constantly checks constantly or at all for an online connection). I&#39;ve had bad experiences with items I legally purchased with DRM bricking hardware. While this isn&#39;t as common as it used to be, I don&#39;t have any faith in DRM due to the added cost of that one incident. My question is because there&#39;s an item from one of the vendors I like a lot and usually buy from who has the Encrypted Daz Connect listed as the only method of download. I question this as it also says it has DSON which makes me wonder if there&#39;s a typo. The item in question is this one.</p>

<p><a href="http://www.daz3d.com/fwsa-eliya-hd-for-victoria-7" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">http://www.daz3d.com/fwsa-eliya-hd-for-victoria-7</a></p>

<p>Does this have a normal download? Also I&#39;m still using D/S 4.8 by choice (no Daz Connect). I&#39;d appreciate any assistance as the item is currently on sale. If it&#39;s Encrypted Daz Connect only I&#39;ll be passing on the purchase.</p>

The items&nbsp;descriptions say that they are compatable with Studio 4.9 but when I attempt to convert a texture all that happens is the UV gets changed to M4 or V4 UV depending on which script I am trying and that results in the base texture which is still applied to the figure being all screwed up.

      <description><![CDATA[<p>Hi, everyone, I&#39;m putting together an art book and curating a series of CGI art images for the book and possibly an all CGI art gallery showing in L.A. I&rsquo;m currently looking for submissions. You must have a 300dpi version at approximately 8x10 available for the book and larger for the gallery. (You can be in one or both.)&nbsp; ALL art must be created using a 3D program and postwork is allowed.&nbsp; As a matter of fact, I encourage postwork. I have never seen a 3D render that couldn&rsquo;t be improved a bit with postwork. Some dodge/burn/levels/brightness contrast and other tricks, even things like Ron&rsquo;s brushes can take your art to next level. All work MUST be your own, no assets from Deviant art that are not yours. You may use a purchased background with your render, but entirely your own work is preferred. No stock images allowed for backgrounds, you can, however, use your own photos as realistic backgrounds, but the rendered image must be the main focus.</p>

<p>What am I looking for? Something cool, a bit edgy maybe, creative, something you could see on a gallery wall. Art, rather than just a render. Please don&rsquo;t be insulted if I don&rsquo;t pick your work, it may be wonderful, but just not what I&rsquo;m looking for&hellip;</p>

<p>Black and white or color. Have dramatic lighting, interesting subjects, something you could visualize framed or printed and wrapped on canvas on a gallery wall. Be aware of lighting, composition and basically ask yourself: &ldquo;Is this art or just a render.&quot;</p>

<p>What I&rsquo;m NOT looking for: Toons, funny scenes or scenarios, straight renders without postwork, something that looks like a sales promo.</p>

<p>All artists will be credited with their name and up to six links for social media or anything they are trying to sell or promote as well as a five to six line bio or statement.</p>

<p>To submit, please email me an 8x10 or slightly larger image at 72 dpi with your name, email and the software you used printed ON the image to CGIWonderland@gmail.com You may send up to 10 images, but please pick your VERY best, even if that is just one or two... Send each image in a separate email.</p>

<p>Looking forward to seeing your work!</p>

<p>Thanks,</p>

<p>Alicia aka Wonderland :)</p>

<p>This has gotten a lot of flack. Please scroll down to my responses to get a full understanding of what I&#39;m talking about. This is not about me making money, it&#39;s about legitimizing CG art and getting more of it in galleries and in the hands of real art collectors. I will copy paste my other responses here later if I have time, but if you scroll to my avatar, hopefully you will get a better understanding of what I&#39;m trying to do. Thanks.</p>

      <description><![CDATA[<p>I may be in the minority here, but it is good to see Koshini back on the site. She was one of the first models that I purchased all the way back in 2003. Used her for all sorts of images until she disappeared from the site.</p>

      <description><![CDATA[<p>Just got this through testing and now waiting for release. &nbsp;I figured there were not enough casual shoes and plenty of high heels, so I have decided to expand the TreadZ line. &nbsp;These shoes incorporate the principles of utility and versatility that you have come to expect from the original TreadZ.</p>

<p>&nbsp;<br />
The collection comes with xtraining and running shoes in both left and right versions. &nbsp;This way you can load exactly what you want. &nbsp;Also included are sock uppers (not full socks) designed to work with these shoes.</p>

<p><br />
The shoes were modeled with enough details to look good with just tiling textures. &nbsp;Included with each shoe are three lace options including one tied and two loose laces. &nbsp; The laces can be hidden to achieve the desired look. &nbsp;I have included 241 3Delight and 238 Iray Shaders that can be applied to any surface on the shoe! &nbsp;Plus, since most of them are tiling you could apply them to other surfaces as well.</p>

<p><br />
Unlike the original TreadZ these shoes do not have the soles modeled in. &nbsp;I made high-res models of three different soles and then baked them into normal and displacement maps. &nbsp;This allows you to pick the type of sole that you want for more efficient rendering. &nbsp;If the shoes are far away, just removed the displacement maps with a simple preset!</p>

<p><br />
There are also included a number of morphs to change the look and adjust the shoes. &nbsp;In addition, there are special morphs designed to make the shoes appear if they are laying on their side. &nbsp;Want objects for a messy room, you got them!</p>

<p>&nbsp;</p>

<p>Preview of the collection with tips on how to use them.</p>

      <description><![CDATA[<p>Hi All,</p>

<p>I am new to Daz and need help with a rather complex shader for my City Block products.</p>

<p>I can supply the need shader from Poser and a model to work on that is mapped correctly, but have been trying for about a month to figure out the corresponding bricks in the Shader Mixer,</p>

<p>and so far I have gotten close, but not spot on so to speak.</p>

<p>If you truly know the Shader Mixer part of Daz Studio 4.9, then please respond.</p>

<p>I will try to make it worth your while.</p>

<p>Here is a render done in Poser with the Puddles materials applied. The tqarget look of the Puddles Shader.</p>

      <title>Flagging Surfaces and Measuring Distances</title>

      <description><![CDATA[<p>I&#39;ll ask the easy question first: How do you measure the distance between two objects in Daz?&nbsp; I have Measure Metric but I don&#39;t think that&#39;s something it does (I could be wrong there), but I want to measure how far a spotlight is from a figure and then set the fall off accordingly.&nbsp; This leads into the main question topic...</p>

<p>So I&#39;ve been using Above the Fog and in some of the help it mentions flagging surfaces to get light to do certain things.&nbsp; I&#39;ve seen that mentioned in other places too, usually in reference to light.&nbsp; Thinking that it could be something that could help with a scene I&#39;m working on, I took a look, but I can&#39;t figure out what that means.&nbsp; How do you flag a surface?&nbsp; Are there different things you can flag it for?&nbsp; How do you make a spotlight (or any light I suppose) recognize and work with that?&nbsp; If I wanted to put a spotlight in a scene, give it a wide angle but only have it illuminate a specific character and nothing else in front of, beside or behind that specific character, is flagging the way to go?&nbsp; It sounds like it could be a very useful thing, but I can&#39;t figure out from the controls for surfaces and lights how to go about doing it.&nbsp; I see a couple controls for spotlights that mention Flagged Surfaces, but nothing is obvious on how to use it.</p>

<p>The items were all from Thorne, and it looks like all of Thorne&#39;s items have suddenly jumped to 46% or 62% off for me, instead of the advertised 70%.&nbsp;The items are all listed on the link from the banner. I also have a new item in the cart, and it changes the price a bit.</p>

<p>Starting price, 17.95.</p>

<p>current 9.79 (-46%)</p>

<p>add a new item, 6.52 (-63%)</p>

<p>I was just about to checkout when the prices shot up!</p>

This doesn&#39;t happen with the first product. Am&nbsp;I the only one with this problem??? How can this be fixed? Thanks.</p>
