I love the idea of a DAZ party! I wonder how we could promote it, as a way of introducing new artists to the craft? Maybe some of the vendors could get together and put together a starter pack that could be offered to first-time purchasers only (I wouldn't mind being left out, if it would attract new future friends!) consisting of enough items, examples, and tutorials for a new user to get a good solid start on producing a variety of art? If it was kept below $100.00, it might be an easy sell.

I would be willing to host a party where I live (Savannah, GA) if I could figure out a way to promote it, and get some help hosting it. Other local users with laptops who would be willing to help set up and demonstrate to the interested just how it works, how to use DAZ, maybe a free or low cost expansion pack for the free DAZ Studio download, (see above paragraph).

Any ideas? Any help? Anyone?

Thanks a lot

So, thank you, @_Traveler_ for some great props!  The Jungle Plants, Jungle Flowers and Jungle Vines were perfect for my creature render which I just uploaded to my gallery and I couldn't be happier!  I will definitely be looking at adding to my collection of Traveler's Props!

For those interested. :)

Thanks.

This is a great way to add some grunge and fiddly detail to objects in 3dl. It essentially uses two textures, and has one texture 'bleed through' based on proximity to edges of the shapes around it.

So, for example, a cube will have the second layer appear along the edges of the cube. It also reacts to other objects, so if you have a small cube resting on a large cube, and the large cube has a dirt shader, there will be 'grime' on the large cube's surface around where the small cube is resting.

An example with a tower is attached; the effect is subtle at this distance, but if you look along the edges of stuff, there it is.

Now, there are some caveats and limitations -- you can't control whether a wall is creating an edge effect or something that 'shouldn't' be leaving grime, like a chair. The shader doesn't work in progressive rendering. The dirt shader lacks bump or displacement. The effect is driven entirely by the shape of the object, so if you have a complex-looking shape that's actually just a cube, you are only getting dirt along the cube edges.

That said... it's pretty darn neat.

Can someone show me some renders of te "city streets" or confirm me that this package was used by FirstBastion?

Hey thanks.

Is this something on somebody's list, since we seem to have gotten every other part of a police station?  If not, it should be. I live a few blocks from one that was built in the 2000's (and was actually a filming site for Patrick Swayze's last television series), so I can take reference pics easy (once I explain what I'm doing, of course)

*I only found two over at Renderosity, both part of larger blocks, and one was a futuristic setting.

I saw mention of an Ivan and a Lucian that are possible future releases in one of the threads, so could one of those be her companion male?

I like this picture a lot. He looks much like M7 but not only.... there must be more...

Not only M7 morph and not only M7 texture I think...

Can you identify him? Are you the artist behind and know, what you did to create the pic?

Is the pic in the gallery with more info?

Thank you for reading my questions ;)

Keep rendering!

So it was just one day?!
