Is there one that can be used in DS2.3?   Preferably FREE.

    Don't know of any off hand.

    Do you need a 3D model or would a render on a plane work? (like how they often do the helicopter rotars blur in DS)

    The latter is easy enough to make in GIMP / PS - I could probably do one today.

    The former I couldn't do.

    That just might work great,  The Bo Staff is a freebie on Rendo called Gabrielle's Fighting Staff.  Im using the staff with only the wood portion of staff showing.  Everything else is turned off.

    I really appreciate your assistance with this!

    Don't thank me yet - my efforts may still suck LOL

    I've downloaded the staff - will give it a try in a few minutes (baby daughter permitting ;) )

    OK - I did a couple of versions - one is a 360 and the other is partial.

    Attached  below along with example pics (with original Toon Boy Sam because I hadn't used him in a while).  All rendered in 3DL because I know you use that.

    Feel free to critique it and ask for improvement (not promising I can do it but if I can, then I don't mind).

    Simply add a plane primitive and use these jpgs in the diffuse and opacity channels (adjust glossiness/specular if needed), resize and position and away you go. It's not perfect as there's no arm/hand blur to go along with it but hopefully it can work for what you need.

    Speaking of which, does DAZ have any plans of implementing Iray's motion blur?
