    This might be a stupid question, but have you tried rendering it? it might not be visible unless rendered.

    In the attached picture promo, renders I've done as an example look.

    I've gotten it to work in Daz Studio, I have reinstalled twice.

    In Poser 10 does not work well.

    Poser 10 operates on 32-bit, it will be because of that?

    But the other items work perfectly.

    Thanks Kulay Wolf.

    Does poser 10 handle subdivision?
    I am unfamiliar with which versions of poser can handle subdivision and which ones cannot.
    If the product does work in d/s, then the product is obviously installed correctly, so I am thinking it must lay somewhere in how it translates to poser.
    That is why the subdivision comes to mind. at first.

    Caveat that I'm not a Poser user, but I seem to remember posts from when HD came out saying Poser users had to set the figure subdivision to 3 manually.

    I know it's been out for a bit now, but I just wanted to say, this is a great addition to my library. Between it and Simon's set I can customize veins that look different on different characters in the same scene, and I just love that. And of course it goes without saying that I'm a huge fan of HD morphs since they work with any texture.

    Also, works on females. Hooray!

    Yes, the level is limited to 2 by default so you have to raise the limit (by opening the paramater's settings) and then set it to 3 - at render time, so you don't slow the system to a crawl.

    Thanks for your interest, but do not know how I can do it.

    Are these parameters? See the attachment.

    Yes - set Max limit to 3 and then set the value to 3.

    It does not work, there must be something that I do well.

    It works for me in Poser Pro 2012, which does not have its own subdivision.

    If I turn subdivision to "off" by using the DSON script in the scripts menu, the veins disappear. When I turn the subdivision back to "1", they appear.

    I did this in Poser Pro 2012.

    I used the DSON script to set subdivision to 1.

    Then I set the parameter dials in the body to set the subdivision to 3.

    Then I watched Task Manager.

    The Poser.exe used 1.75 GB of memory and FFrender.exe (the firefly renderer) used 1.67 GB of memory. For IDL lighting and a nude figure and nothing else.

    So, if you're using a 64 bit version of Poser, no problem.

    If you're using a 32 bit version, you will probably HAVE to make sure that in your edit>general preferences>render tab the "separate process" is checked. Otherwise, you may run out of memory every single time you try to render.

    Edit: And I have no idea why the skin is patchy with red. I assume that the EZSkin script I used to add SSS doesn't like dark skins, and I need to adjust the default settings.

    This already tried it before and now I'm back to try but did not work.

    I've tried every option one by one and combining them, but I can not.

    It's frustrating.

    I'll try what you say in your last post.

    Thank you.

    Yes. It turns out you are correct. And it's something I never knew before. So here I am, being thoroughly impressed with the HD figures, and I haven't even seen them in all their glory yet. :D

    Thank you for pointing that out.

    Make sure the DSON script hasn't turned the subdivision off. :) I found that if it did, the veins did not show up in preview or render.

    OMG! Lightbulb flash!

    I had resigned myself to not using multiple Genesis figures in Poser because after you've loaded more than 2 of them, you can't pose them any more. Everyone said, "Turn subdivision off", which I did, and it didn't help.

    It never occurred to me that by "subdivision" people were talking about the dial in the body of the figure, not the DSON importer setting. D'OH!

    If you go into the body and turn the limits off on the parameter dials for mesh resolution, and turn the mesh resolution to, say, -3.000, everything runs smooth as silk with 5 dressed Gen HD Gen 2's in the scene.

    If I weren't married, I'd kiss you. :)

    Hey, it's an excellent figure.

    I have tried everything you said and it still fails.

    It must be something I do not do well.

    Thank you.

    Dark skins are beautiful.

    I want to thank everyone for their help in sorting this out.
    I am sorry I only have occasional internet connection the last few days, as we hare having work done on our house.
    It does sound like the issue is with the subdivision. SO it is good that it has been narrowed down to there.

    Thanks RawArt.

    Thank you all for your help.

    I absolutely love this product. Any plans to do one for G2M's gens? It looks pathetically smooth now compared to the rest of the figure.

    Hah...not often do I say "no, I have no plans for that"...but in this case, really I dont.

    Sorry for being so late to the party here, but I am curious what you think is the easiest way to add color to the veins.  I have the raw veins dialed up to 200% all and they look awesome!  But I wanted to see if there was a way to color the veins a bit under the skin.

    Thanks

  • RawArtRawArt Posts: 6,101

    apart from manually painting them onto the texture directly, there is no good way to do it...sorry

    I was just thinking that.  So I am thinking to try and open the character map in PS and see if I can line up the veins and airbrush the skin.
