      <description><![CDATA[<p>I have the M4 Elite textures. In the picture I have a attached, I converted the texture to G2M. But why is he so shiny? I&#39;m pretty sure if I apply the materials to M4 directly, I get the same effect. Are these textures suppose to be this shiny? I have never used them much because they didn&#39;t look right to me. I suppose you could add some drops and he would look wet. Is the the reason he looks so shiny is because the glossiness is set to 97%?</p>

      <description><![CDATA[<p>Hello! &nbsp;I have an character who turns up in a fair amount of my artwork and whom I usually portray with the face turned away from the camera. &nbsp;The setting calls for chin length to shoulder len, and although there are situations where Neftis&#39;s&nbsp;Historical Curls is&nbsp;a good fit and I plan to use it, but there are also situations where I&#39;m already using that for another character in the scene, or want something a little bit tidier for the first character. &nbsp;</p>

<p>I like Akaste Hair in general, but I used it recently on this character and felt like the straight on back view was less dignified than what I had in mind. &nbsp;I will probably test out some other hairstyles from my library as time permits, but thought I would check and see if anyone else had to deal with something similar, and what their hairstyle of choice was for that.</p>

<p>I am under the impression that it is not possible to&nbsp;transform G3F into a sphere&nbsp;by using&nbsp;bump, normal or displacement maps.</p>

<p>Therefore:</p>

<p>You can create interesting effects with morphs that you can not achieve with maps.</p>

      <description><![CDATA[<p>I asked about this before and am having trouble figuring it out. I never really used blender before so I am just learning the basics and am hoping if someone has some time to kill they could help. Is there anyone familiar with Blender who has perhaps used it to change clothing items whilst characters are wearing them? I have been told how to put a figure wearing an item into blender by making it an obj. file but I am having trouble knowing exactly how to change the clothing item. (in the pics is the figure and her dress I imported from daz into blender and I don&#39;t know how to zoom in onto her exactly in Blender)</p>

<p>I am trying to have the woman lower the front of her dress and have tried to do it using D-formers and the normal dress morphs but it comes out looking unnatural like she is not really pulling down on the dress and I was told before it could be done in Blender.</p>

<p>(please don&#39;t suggest dynamic clothing in daz as I cannot find one that I want to use for a scene in mind)</p>

      <description><![CDATA[<p>Alembic Exporter for DAZ Studio is confusing to me- (nothing new.) Does this work with, say, Lightwave?  Is it just for animations? Totally lost. Below is the product description. It's 50% off plus you can use your PC coupon for another $6 off as it's a DO.</p>

<p>The Alembic format is used in production pipelines involving many of the top 3D modeling/animation applications.<br />
With this exporter plugin for DAZ Studio you gain the ability to use DAZ Studio assets, as well as “Vertex Exact” animations, in your favorite 3D modeling/animation applications.</p>

<p>One possible pipeline where the Alembic exporter will be useful is when doing the following:</p>

<p>    Animate a figure such as Victoria 6 in DAZ Studio<br />
    Export to Alembic format<br />
    Import Alembic file into preferred 3D application<br />
    Set up surfaces, lighting and cameras<br />
    Render</p>

<p>The animation of Victoria 6 will deform exactly the same in the target 3D application as it did in DAZ Studio due to the way Alembic handles animation.</p>]]></description>

      <description><![CDATA[<p>I&#39;ve been experimenting with low poly modelling so I made a little low poly figure in 3DCoat. I made the mesh with symmetry so that the texture map is only half the figure. In 3DCoat everything looks fine when I take it into the paint room and start making the texture map. When I check the exported mesh in MT Mirror it tells me the mesh has perfect symmetry. But when I import the mesh into Daz Studio there are distortions on one side of the mesh.</p>

<p>Any ideas what I can do to fix this?</p>

But WHAT hat, sweater and pants? Any other clothes fit? Not real good with Daz yet so if I need to do something &#39;special&#39; to make the clothes fit, can you please explain. Would really appreciate all the help I can get. Thanks all!</p>

      <title>When and how frequent is DAZ fixing insecure PostgreSQL in Studio</title>

      <description><![CDATA[<p>Secunia PSI is reporting that the third party PostgreSQL database-engine in DAZ-Studio is insecure (not the first time and I&#39;m running 4.9 with latest PostgreSQL-installation from DIM). I don&#39;t want to have insecure, but still developed stuff on my computer (for &quot;end-of-life&quot;-programs I&#39;ll decide on my own risk).</p>

<p>As far as I appreciate an Open Source database-engine for all the content-stuff, I don&#39;t see any reason for using engines which are deprecated. I don&#39;t have any ideas how sincere the bug-fixes are: <a href="http://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.3/static/release-9-3-11.html" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">http://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.3/static/release-9-3-11.html</a> , but the list doesn&#39;t make me to trust on the deprecated version.</p>

<p>So, when and how frequently will DAZ deploy security-fixes of essential to Studio used third party components (from my little knowledge of Linux it should be 1 or 2 days, after a repository was updated)?</p>

<p>(Yeah, and the DAZ-listening port is unusual, but security through obscurity in 2016? really?)</p>

      <description><![CDATA[<p><span>I want to thank everyone, on behalf of all of us at Daz, for your input, ideas and perspectives, as well as for the huge adoption we have already seen with Daz Studio 4.9. I want to also thank those that have not adopted yet for offering their feedback.</span></p>

<p><span>Based on the feedback we&rsquo;ve received through the forums, customer emails, support tickets, etc., there are 3 main areas that we would like to address: </span></p>

<ol>
	<li>
	<p><strong><span>Encryption and DRM.</span></strong></p>
	</li>
	<li>
	<p><strong><span>Difficulty or confusion in finding and installing products through Daz Connect.</span></strong></p>
	</li>
	<li>
	<p><strong><span>Frustration over missing functionality in the Content Library pane experience.</span></strong></p>
	</li>
</ol>

<p><span>As I outline our position on each of the above, let me state that we fully realize that our solutions will not solve everyone&#39;s concerns in these areas, but we think that these are key next-steps to solve the majority of them. &nbsp;These are high level updates for you. &nbsp;More in-depth details for each one of these solutions will be provided in the coming weeks, with our intention being to roll all of these out during Q1 2016:</span></p>

<p>&nbsp;</p>

<h3><strong><span>1.&nbsp;Encryption and DRM.</span></strong></h3>

<p><span>Currently Daz Connect gives customers the ability to install (among other things) encrypted content. &nbsp;Daz Connect also lets customers retrieve a Key to decrypt their content. &nbsp;Customers have raised the concerns of: What if Daz is not available to provide the keys anymore, chooses not to, or starts charging an additional fee to get a key for previously purchased content?</span></p>

<p><span>Solution: We have developed and fully tested a utility which will decrypt, and save in non-encrypted formats, Daz products on a customer&rsquo;s computer. &nbsp;We are also working out details with a software escrow company who will provide this utility to the public free of charge in the event that Daz is no longer in a business position to, or is unwilling to continue offering this as a free service. &nbsp;This will also be added to the Daz EULA to ensure customers of our commitment to enable them to always be able to use content that they have purchased a license for.</span></p>

<p><span>Obviously this does not address some of the other issues such as scripts and tools that work on un-encrypted content. &nbsp;But those are solved in other ways. &nbsp;We are working (and will continue to work) with developers who have this need, in order to show them how to do it with encrypted content.</span></p>

<p>&nbsp;</p>

<h3><strong><span>2.&nbsp;Difficulty or confusion in finding and installing products through Daz Connect.</span></strong></h3>

<p><span>People can&#39;t find their products to install, or fail to install them.</span></p>

<p><span>Solution: In addition to the existing functionality in the Smart Content pane, we will be providing a new Pane titled &quot;Install&quot; (or something similar) which is used specifically to install/uninstall content. &nbsp;It will be a much easier experience, and we have worked out many of the hiccups in the install process. &nbsp;We also have MANY solutions that will be incorporated &nbsp;to make installing, managing, finding and using older content that lacks metadata a lot easier.</span></p>

<p>&nbsp;</p>

<h3><strong><span>3.&nbsp;Frustration over missing functionality in the Content Library pane experience.</span></strong></h3>

<p><span>Solution: Obviously the description of this solution could get very detailed. &nbsp;At a high level, we have a solution that we will be rolling into testing in the coming weeks which allows customers to navigate the hierarchy they are used to in Content Library as they have in the past. &nbsp;&nbsp;Again, I know there will be a TON of questions on this subject. &nbsp;More detailed descriptions will be provided as the implementation details become more concrete.</span></p>

<p>&nbsp;</p>

<p><span>Thank you everyone for your input, advice, and candid opinions. </span></p>

<p><span>Steve Spencer</span></p>

<p><span>VP of Marketing</span></p>

      <description><![CDATA[<p>Hey all,<br />
<br />
I&#39;m trying to create a scene that involves water. That much I figured out by using the iRay water shader, but I&#39;d love if I can create a ripply, glowing water reflection that casts onto other surfaces (ideally a wall and a Genesis figure.) I attached some examples, is there a way to do this? Even just faking it by projecting the texture would be cool. Thanks all<br />
