I'm using RAWArt's cat tail for Genesis 8 Male and I'm trying to save poses for the tail. The pose file manages to save things that are under the General tab (Translate, Rotate, Scale) but the things under the Pose Controls tab in the figure (BendAll, SideAll, TwistAll, Hang_Down). How do I get those elements to save in the pose file so that I don't have to dial them up every time? I think I've tried every Save As option and nothing seems to work. Any ideas, please???

Now this looks interesting something wish had more of perfect for pinup or whatever, looks like a lot of poses/morphs. Out Of Touch and the3dwizard another two artists that offer clothing with pull down/up dress/undress options in some of their products. Hopefully AS also does some more with some other types of clothing normal shorts/dresses for example

It started so well, then BAM! buttoned down shirt. I'm pretty sure every police department in the country has regulations that the shirt must be buttoned up.

What's the point? It's not sexy enough to be a Halloween police woman costume but completely unusable to anyone who wants an actually realistic one.

Might have had something to do with me trying DAZ Central (NOT using that, caused too many issues with content).  So if you've tried it, double check your product library.

Until recently I've been using the default viewer included in Windows to view graphics and photos. I always knew it probably wasn't the best, but it did offer convenience and simplicity for simply viewing images- photos as well as other graphics. MS has seen fit to bury it in the registry of the current Windows system as a way to force us to use their Photos app. I've never really cared for this app.

I know there are other viewers available, and I've tried a couple but they've turned out to be as unappealing as the one Windows has chosen for me (I admit that's part of the issue). I'm not limiting myself to free ones; I would be willing to pay for one as nice as the render window. What do other people use to view their renders?

Because my C: drive got too crowded, I had been putting all of my content into an external drive file called F: My Daz 3D Library.  It's all still there.  What I'm asking, in my hopeless Luddite way, is there some way I can get Daz Studio to recognize all that content in that file in a way that I won't have to reinstall everything?  I mean, it's thousands of items.

As always, thanks for whatever advice you can impart!

However, none of that is getting exported with FBX 2014.  The geom is essentially Sub-D 0. She's looking more like Whitney Houston than Mom's Mabley. I vaguely recall some thread on this some time back, but wasn't relavent at the time I guess. In any case, don't know if a resolve was found.

As a test, I did an "bake everything I could possibly bake" bake with Oda May in Daz and exported out as and OBJ.  The resulting geom was quite dense & looks like I've recovered the detail missing from the FBX.

These aren't surface adjusted, btw. OBJ's have a different UV than FBX's so you can't just copy & paste.

So it's possible to get the detail out of DS via OBJ's, but how do you get the FBX to do that?  

Is it simply a setting that needs to get enabled, and is that even user accessible, as in is it hard encoded in the export module itself?

Not actually a bad idea! But it’s a crowded market. There are so many pose packs out there already, both here and at Renderosity, that it would be difficult to do something like that without getting lost among pages and pages of poses.

What are most people looking for nowadays in terms of poses? As in, what can I recommend she do if she wanted to create a set of poses?

Thanks in advance. I know it’s a strange question.

I'm really trying to get some 'behind the scenes' type shots too incorperated in the scenario which would include casual shots of the crew working on the model shoot whilst they adjust things and tamper with their cameras etc etc but I really don't know anything about how modelling shoots work in these typs of instances in regards to how many people are needed for such a thing. I figure there would obviously be the photographer and then perhaps the lighting guy who fools around with the shadow umbrella thingy to get it right then there is perhaps the makeup artist guy/gal on standby to pretty her up whenever its felt to be needed, but what else other crew staff do you think should be added in total? generally on average is there a LOT of people behind the camera?

Its unlikely but maybe even someone who may have worked behind the scenes for a magazine that shoots beautiful women modelling could fill me in on what their entourage usually consists of generally? she's not a hyper celeb or anything but still somewhat famous.

So I bought an OBJ model of a really well crafted insect.  As an OBJ, it was not separated into face-groups or rigged.  It also had some anatomical issues, for example: 4 wings modeled as 2 (not separated).
Using Daz and Hexagon, I gave this model a serious and time-consuming overhaul.  The model looks pretty much the same, but it is now rigged/weight-mapped, all the legs, wings, antennae, etc. are independent elements and can be manipulated as such, as well as several shaping and positioning morphs.  I'm also working on some flight and walking animations.

Is this something I can sell here (if accepted by Daz)?  Would I just need to get the original modeler's written permission?

Thank you!

If this works in real time....Boom Baby!

Just saying.

So far, Mantra has been kind of ruled out, being both old and slow.

The new one, Karma, is in beta and not yet feature complete, e.g. volumetrics is not fully implemented.

Octane is of course very nice, but apparently there is no free option for Houdini, and it requires a persistent internet connection.

What are some other informed choices?

Thanks, -David

I am not sure if this belongs here or not as it has to do with the inner workings of Daz Studio.  But I was wonder if the "Open Recent" (files), under the File tab on the menu bar, can be increased from the 10 last files open to something more.   Could this be even doubled or tripled?    I know there is a work around to just create a folder for recent projects in my main Daz directory, but it is just easier to open the progam and look at the list of recently used files.   However, if this is a user adjustable item, I would like to know how to do it.

Thank you,

Geo

Any help? 

Thanks!

What exactly is this? Is it getting DAZ 3D banner ads on your site? Or is there more to it?
