They have a LOT of cool stuff there, and since they are about to migrate that product over to my account here, I thought I might as well grab anything that looked remotely interesting. After all, who knows if that stuff will stay free when it gets over here, or if it will be retired?

I know the title is a bit weird but I was wondering what Daz Studio would do if you tried loading an item which wasn't compatible with that version.

Would it crash the program or would you get a message telling you that the item doesn't work with that version.

It's something that I've always wondered. Plus, I've got a few problems with Daz3D at the moment and I'm trying to eliminate possibilites of what could be wrong.

Thanks

It says that Sun-Sky Only does not render any 'lights that exist as nodes'. But my experience is that emmissive shaders render. Also photometric spots. What am I mssing?

for outdoor scenes I have been using HDRI very happily. For indoor scenes I don't like them.

There are now so many available. Does anyone here have experience of a number of suitable lights for indoor?

I would like both flexibility and speed (wouldn't we all).

I would be gratefull for advice.

They had chefs, waitresses, doctors, nurses, 1950's clothes, prisoners, vikings, medieval wear, priestesses... a ton of functional clothes that weren't complete slutwear that was totally impractical in 90% of day-to-day scenes... even in fantasy settings.

G2F and G3F have so many clothing items and like 80% are something a stripper would wear "Now on center stage, Candy in her ( place genre here ) slutwear!" ... Fantasy outfits with high heels shoes? Every fantasy outfit showing as much skin as possible that makes what would have been a really cool design totally impractical. A occupational uniform that a Playboy bunny would wear if she were portraying someone doing that job... nurse, flight attendant, barbarian, fantasy heroine... acht!

Can we have some functional clothes for the G3 Females like the Genesis 1 folks had in abundance?

Please!! :)

for me, it's simply superb news

Looks like it was meant to come with the textures before they were separated for a freebie - forgot to fix the text on the product so its currently a bit misleading:

5 Texture Options

• Banderillero
• Capeador
• Picador
• Tauromachain
• Toreador

• 132 Texture, Bump and Specular Maps (3000 x 3000)

I use DAZ to set up creative scenes, worthy of professional photo shoots with high class models and expensive wardrobes etc. I would like to make the final result as close to an actual photo as possible. That's the advantage I get out of DAZ (plus it it's fun). Going from DAZ to Photo shop via JPEG seems to reduce (or maybe it's just my eyes) the quality when I open the same image in Photoshop. Especially zoomed in. Are there best practices that I'm not aware of? I'd like to get the final result from DAZ to look like (as close to) a phot as possible. I've seen some impressive things in the gallery... I want the same from my renders. Any tips?

Thanks in advance,

Or another easier way to buy store credit for myself? 

Thank you

Also, I wonder why she can see the sun settings etc, but I only have a short list under environment. I have show subsets checked. I have a list of many 10 or 15 items, but SickleYield has a whole column. Could it be that things changed since the beta? I believe that is what she was using in the video. I'm pretty sure she said to set it to dome and scene, so why does she get so many settings.

She adjusted some light settings, like emission temperature,etc, while the skydome was selected. But I don't get those settings unless I add a light. (I can get more settings if I select the sky choice.

Thanks.

to spend on it ??? PLEASE.............

thanks :-)

This may be a stupid question, but can I transfer the shape of a 3rd party figure to (any version) of Genesis? I mean, buying a 3rd party figure and make Genesis look like it. If so, how and what`s involved?

Thanks.

My personal interests are in creating characters, natural figures (a bit less...idealized than the typical figures here), and pose sets.

Specific things i'm wondering include:

• typical turn around time on submissions (guessing my first one'll be a long one!)
• can I do pose sets for non-Daz Original figures (as in one's made by other PA's)?
• can I do "go to" poses for furniture and environments (some DO; some PA)?
• any other "pro tips?" :)

Thanks for any and all input you may have! I hope that things I'm making will be useful to more than just me, soon. ^_^

Can it also be used to export for the purpose of rendering in another program also.... ?

Also, could I export, eg., V7 from DS to Poser to work with it there.

I am obviously unclear about this utility, so feel free to direct me to a more useful thread of page.

Thanks.

I would like to know how this dress looks if the arms are down or up over the head, especially the lower arms, in the promos the lower arms are just angled. So, would be nice to have some other images to see how these large sleeves look when the arms are down or up over the head.

So I loaded to obj's in Hex and cut out the figures, cut apart the clothes to make different sections (shirt, pants, boots, etc.) then sent them over to Daz, rigged, shaded and rigged them.

Then I packaged them up and put them in my archives in case I ever needed to reinstall.

Problem is, one of my suits causes Daz to crash about 90% of the time but only when it's trying to load the entire suit at once. If I load it into the scene piece by piece, it seems to be fine, but if I try to load a saved scene that has the whole suit, or if I try to load my "full suit" preset, good chance Daz will crash.

If I open Daz, set the view to wireframe, then load the saved scene then it's loaded fine (so far) but it crashed again right after saving the scene.

I can't redestribute the pack as I've also added an undershirt for the suit to collide with and would violate the lisence, so I'm just looking for places to look for common errors first. I did check the log and seen some "known invalid rgb" errors and some "missing morph" warnings but I see those in scenes without the suit as well so I don't know if those are directly related to the suit..
