Hi everyone - if you like wallpapers or linoleum floors, check out my fun new set - https://www.daz3d.com/vintage-home-decor-shader-presets-and-merchant-resource

The core of this set is from a real-life vintage wallpaper sample book and a real-life linoleum sales sample kit from my collection of vintage oddities. The set is full of co-ordinating shader presets - fabric, vinyl, laminate countertop, and paints - to go with the wallpapers and floors, so you can use it to give a bright 1940s/1950's look to pretty much any house or room set in your collection.

For people using it as a merchant resource, there are bonus wallpaper border textures that are seamless on the horizontal axis, that you can layer on top of the wallpaper textures in making your UV maps for your models.  Because of the way scaling works they don't work as overlays in the scene - they end up repeating on the wall instead of staying at the top, and the only way to stop it would be to scale everything too small to render nicely, unfortunately. But they are from the same wallpaper book as the main wallpapers, and so I've included them as an extra to use in photoshop, where you can control the scaling and layering more precisely.

    Any of the presets with a strong normal are not going to look good - the surfaces turns out super bumpy and the scale looks weird. But the things without a strong normal look okay, except the shiny things are too shiny.  (I'm not posting an example because my 3delight renders always look like garbage crying which is why I stick to Iray nowadays). Practically speaking what this means is that in a 3Delight render, the wallpapers will look good as long as you apply the "no normal" preset after you load them up, the floors will look too shiny, and the paint will be unusable unless you completely turn off the normal (which may make it too flat).  So I think it would be a lot of work to tweak the full set for use in 3delight, but if you're mainly just interested in the wallpapers it might suit your needs.
