So, you're saying it's just as regionally appropriate as the blurb on the Western Saddle? :)I am
I had to go a read it...too funny.
I wish Kevin would take his meds again
Oh noes! :cheese: Must... resist.. llamas :shut:
Maybe with all these Llamas someone could create a new badge system for DeviantART. ;)
Edit: 500th post! WHOO!! :cheese:
Llamas?! I was just looking for a llama model (or a vicuna or alpaca) earlier last week for an Andes scene. I tried mashing the hump of a poor camel model and shortening and straightening the neck, yanking on the ears, what a miserable thing that turned out! Delete!
I was browsing my email half-alseep this afternoon and thought I was dreaming, LOL!
But, it was Llamas! I went with the DAZ Horse 2 Starter Bundle because I waited too long for the western tack for the Mil horse to go on sale in earlier times. I thought because .cr2 was listed for the horse, accessories and llama I would be able to open the props or the horse cr2s in DAZ 4.0, but alas not able to. Clicking on the cr2 file opens DAZ without error but nothing appears in the Scene panel or workspace. One of these days when I read more positive comments I'll try 4.5. I just don't want to fight computer stuff, just want to play. I can't load the llama right now, but I have it and may be inspired. Once I got to hug a real live llama at a fair petting zoo. She had gorgeous sapphire blue eyes and long curly eyelashes, and her neck fur was so soft. She leaned into me and sniffed my hair. Llamas are lovely! This is as close to having one as I can get.
The horse looks beautiful too. Nice artistry in these models in the renders I've seen so far.
Wow. Love these forums. Wait long enough and someone will come along and say precisely what you wanted to say/ask yourself. :lol:
Thanks, Cathy!
Sorry - I am ill and my brain went for a walk without me ...
Will the CWRW Pro textures work with this horse? Somewhere somebody said they are updated?
Does the Pro bundle really include only the Textures for the English and Western Saddle?
http://www.daz3d.com/shop/horse/daz-horse-2-pro-bundle
Is there a possibility to get the extra morphs and textures of the Pro bundle without buying the extra stuff (especially when the extra stuff is only textures for not included items)???
Please help ...
Zelroth: Neither of the Wagon Trails sets has a harness, They were more meant for scene filler (props to a degree) I had thought there would be a harness included that worked with anything and so we did rig it to function but did not do the harness as we develop in Poser and I still can't quite wrap my head around rigging stuff up in DS and had thought someone better experienced would be releasing one. I am not sure if there is a separate harness in the bundle though or not as I haven't gotten the full Pro Bundle etc yet so on that part you would need to wait for an answer from Kevin as to if it has one or one is coming (or someone who has gotten it? I did see Spencer's wagon shows a Harness and I don't see that it is included which makes me think there is one around somewhere?) . I could answer on the Wagon Trails sets though so thought I would at least answer that part of the question. So sorry we didn't include a harness, I just didn't want to do something I was fairly certain we could not do well due to lack of experience. :(
For my main promo pic I used the tack from the Daz Vintage Sleigh http://www.daz3d.com/shop/the-vintage-sleigh
It needs a fair bit of tweaking to get it looking reasonable but it's all part of the fun :-)
The Pro Bundle includes the Starter Bundle. So the Starter bundle has the saddles, and the Pro Bundle adds the extra textures.
Thank you!
I did feel like I am missing something.
My brain is too foggy ... *cough, wheeze*
Anything on the textures?
Will MilHorse textures work on this horsey?
Or is there a "morphs and textures package" that just has the morphs and textures in the starter and pro bundle?
(no money ... is not fun)
From the sounds of it you are just using the perspective camera. The perspective camera may shift around when you close a file but If you create a camera then it won't move unless you do so yourself. Also if you create a camera you can change the camera setting from the default to wide angle and stuff. Sorry don't have a version of daz on this machine to show you where it all is.
THe shadows questions is also one that you can change in DS too, but maybe someone else can explain that. I think I know what you are at, but not positive.

You have my sympathy, I'm full of cold too at the moment :(
The UVs have been updated so the MilHorse textures won't work on this horse, whilst I can see the value in the new uv maps I'm a bit cheesed off that that MilHorse UVs wern't included as V4 ones are for Genesis, I have hundreds of my own textures for the MilHorse, one of which I was working on the day before this release. I'd pay for accurate MilHorse UVs for this horse to be able to use my own work.
One other thing I just noticed is that the dials to change the leg length are missing in this horse? I think we need an update with some of these things adding in like the MilHorse SR2, the horse is very good but with a few more detail will be excellent.

Re: Shadows: The only real control you have with the default DS lights is Shadow Softness (which is pretty much the rim/blend control). On Raytraced lights you're going to have to crank this pretty far up to really notice it. Keep in mind you'll need a pretty decent value for Shadow Samples on your Advanced Render tab if you want a LOT of softness on your primary (most intense) lighting... Say, 12 or 16 samples or more. If you switch to UberSpots, you'll have a few more controls such as Shadow Intensity and Shadow Color. These can also be created in Shader Mixer, but it's easy just to use the UberSpots IMO. (Plus you get Gel light functionality with UberSpots and per light shadow samples control.) I highly recommend anything by omnifreaker).
The camera issues were answered above. Just start off with Create > New Camera and then make sure and use the pulldown on your viewport to select the Camera you create. Or if you're like me and you ALWAYS want a new camera setup, you can setup an empty scene with just the camera(s) you want and then set that scene as your startup scene.

Ann,
Thank you for the answer. I t is what I expected, so no worries. There is almost always some way around concept ideas. I love the look of the wagons and am waiting for payday to pick up the bundle. Thank you for all the lovely (from the promos) adds for the horse.

Spencer,
Thanks for that. I thought I had a harness SOMEPLACE on my harddrive and that gives me a starting place even before I get the horse. Tweaking is better than creating from scratch, especially for someone who has yet to finish any digital sculpts.
Just in case, I'm working on that one...
oooh! looking good!
The Llamas are nice, too. Click the image to see it enlarged.
The first thing I wanted to make was a donkey... :) Rendered in luxrender via reality plug in.

Something like the Evolution Morphs? I wouldn't be a bit surprised to get something like that before too many months are past. Particularly if this is the first of a series of Genesis-based quadrupeds.
Greetings,
O_o?! How is it that with the ASTONISHING flood of H2 products, there's no geografted unicorn horn...?
I am now also deeply hoping that sometime later next year will come 'dog 2', with wolf and fox morphs & mats. The one fox I have (by 9mbi) has no poses, which makes it difficult to use outside of 'standing there' pose...
I also wonder if we'll see 'Genesis Rodent' and 'Genesis Cat', so we can make a cabbit by blending the two. ;)
-- Morgan
Wings and horn is in the works, I hear.
What about centaurs made from H2 and Genesis? Is that getting any love yet?
I've not read the full thread. Is why I asked.
I am sure they would not be named Genesis anything since they actually aren't genesis anything (hence no Genesis horse, just a horse based on said tech to an extent)
Also it would be interesting if they had a cat and "rodent" that used the same mesh, but my guess is they would do different ones.
At least from what I have read there doesn't seem like the horse at least was designed to become a chimera of any sort, so I doubt the cat or dog would.
So I say skip the dog and cat all together and make a manticore. The new hair products will probably bring enough life into the old cat and dog for a lot of users that want those types of products and not fantasy creations.
EDIT: but if the horse sells well enough who knows what the would do, I'm just having a hard time seeing them have a $40 cat or dog in the store. More so for a rodent.
Oh, say it isn't so.=-) Would love Genesis cat and dog, especially if they make a small dog. I so want a chihuahua!
Oh, WOW! Did we just release MORE Horse stuff?
Don't miss Ken Gilliland's Racehorse Tack
And you can't have a racehorse without a Jockey--
Check out the new: Jockey Set!

Check out the Riding Habit
And as a limited time added bonus, purchase EITHER (or even better BOTH) outfits and get the Saddle Addon For FREE! (Both the clothing item (or both) and the Saddle Add on must be present in the cart together for the discount to apply)
You can only have your chi dog if they make my MinPin morphs first. I must have that one. And a german shepard too. I'd buy just about any dog morph that isn't a small fluffy white dog.
Cool more horse stuff. Looks fun.

I'm god with a mini pin, chi, and german shep. The german shep would be great for using my languishing police set.
I see there are some new clothing sets in the store! I love the riding habit...
Oh foo. I just made an order to get something in FastGrab. I should have waited another hour.
The textures and boots on the riding habit are very well done!
If we encourage midnight_stories, we just might get it sooner than later.
midnight_stories, we are rootin' for ya! Please give us a centaur! :)
