Also I seem to still have v4.7 (of both!) in my DAZ3D folder listing in the Start menu - do they not install over each other and eliminate wasted space? Is it safe for me to use the Microsoft Uninstall to get rid of the earlier versions or will I lose stuff?

Thanks all!

I’m trying to learn how to do rigging by making my own “figure” in Hexagon 2 but I’m having trouble with importing the object into either Daz Studio or Poser. The Object is just a simple Building with separate doors & windows but once I imported Object into either program everything is welded together making it a single object & I can’t rigging the doors / windows properly.

What can I do?

Thank you,

Is anyone aware of a similar script for a View Mode menu?

Thank you in advance for your help. 

Thank you,

I was messing around with genx2 and I transfered my morphs succesfully but a sub category that I dont want was also created. What I see in the shaping menu is Actor > GenerationX > Genesis > Universal > Fantasy Shapes > Morph. Id like to rename and move some of these morphs folders but if I look in the GenX data folder I dont find anything other than the transfered morphs, no folders at all. Does that mean that the sub category is written into one of the morphs? Can I edit this?

Thanks

The most awesome poses I've seen are the "dynamic" poses (whose bodies have the power and dynamism of ice skaters or vollyball players) and "sword fighting" and "flying" (superhero) kind of poses, where its clear that the Woman is on a mission!  But also of a woman hammering a nail, hanging up picture, getting cups out of a tall cupboard, doing laundry, scolding her children, holding babies, playing video games, engaging in surgery, arguing a courtcase, placing something on a shelf, drawing/writing at a desk, talking with others, drinking alcohol and looking pretty drunk, playing a guitar, writing in a journal while standing, eating a bowl of cereal while holding the bowl up in the air, giving "cheers" to someone at a wedding while sitting or standing, building small crafts, picking something off the ground... while not looking like a sex position, holding every size of object with a different balance/position for every shape and weight, putting on a jacket, putting on shoes, brushing teeth, combing hair, arguing, shaking hands, etc.

But not just one of those poses, but LOTS and LOTS for each scenario.  And why not?  There are about 50 poses of "Hands up in the hair randomly" and about 1000 poses of "On her knees" and probably an infinity of poses "Touching her own face as if on Ecstacy."  I think part of the problem is that there is nothing for someone to do without another object in the scene.  So you just end up with unlimited number of poses where the woman is touching herself, or standing up, or on her knees or hands in the air for no reason whatsoever.

My advice to all pose creators would be to never create a pose without multiple objects in the scene, where a woman is actually doing something.  The objects don't need to be included with the pose set, obviously.  Our imaginations can fill in the blanks with similar scenarios and our own scenes.  But if you look at the way, for example, ice skaters move, there is something beautiful in the way that they move, rather than simply mechanical.  The goal of pose creation, I believe, should be to find a beautiful dynamic for an ordinary situaiton.  While anyone can make a figure look stiff, doing something; the valuable pose creator makes them look dynamic and alive while doing something as simple as eating cereal.

I would say 70% of the women's poses don't represent women doing anything in particular at all.  Pinup is obviously part of this market.  But women actually do stuff; and regular stuff, to boot!  Not just sword fights, ballerina dancing or face/hair touching while on their knees!  And they deserve MORE than one pose per each scenario (and certainly if hair-touching gets 1,000 poses).

Sorry if this is a bit cheeky.

But its just a thought.

Thanks in advance for any help.

Any takers?

I don't see anything, don't know if I'm just over looking it something...

I need items that work in both programs, and am not interested in fiddling around with them to force them to work. To put it bluntly, there are other wheelchairs (and other items) out there that may not be as nice, but they work "right out of the box" in Poser and DS, with only a few tweaks needed to materials.

But that got me wonder about file types and cross-compatability. When the content creator lists only DS, is this citing a limitation in file format, or that the creator didn't test it in Poser? I realize that this is one of those "well, it depends..." type of questions. I know that. I don't want to go off into the weeds about figures (especially rigged models and smart props) and materials. I'm talking about relatively simple items like a wheelchair, or pots & pans, or stuff like that.

I tried, but it looses all morphs

Our new product is released today: EJ Eloise For Genesis 3 Female(s), a gorgeous character that also includes 4 special Celtic fantasy makeups and lipsticks in addition to the casual ones, and  two special eyes -blind eye and red, and blind eye with normal eye-.

She also has stiletto nails and vampire fangs.

Hope you like her! :) See more images and get her here: http://www.daz3d.com/ej-eloise-for-genesis-3-female-s

Any renders are welcome here! :)

Hoping somebody might know or have at least an educated guess.  Thanks!

Since I have gotten a number of complements on the lighted furniture and pool balls I thought I would post about them. First, I cheerfully admit that most of the light up items were inspired by pictures I have seen over the last couple of years. I suspect the pool floaters were a big part of why I wanted to do the presets. The patio table is two primitives, one slightly larger and higher than the non illuminated one under it. The pool balls are simple sphere primitives and the plant container is a scaled torus primitive. I made the "tree" but a cone could have been used just as easily.

Do you guys know of others?

Is there a way to add these morphs to other clothing?
