    Simple TShirt Freebie for Genesis 9 Base

    See zip attached.  Let me know if this works.  Note - it is just the TShirt for G9.  You will have to convert it to blended and save as a character preset to use in Carrara.  Let me know if there are any problems, such as bad data file mapping.  No shaders but the collar and sleeves are separate shading domains.

    Thanks !!!

    nice renders,

    I cannot be bothered anymore until they release some basic content like morphs,

    I did transfer a character with morphloader

    but earlier to use V4 so went back there wink

    I was all ready to jump on the Genesis 9 train.  I bought myself a discounted gift card to budget by jump.  If they don't release basic morphs and similar convenient general add-ons soon I will be jumping back off.

    @Bunyip02 - nice render!  Good to see that the older content can still be used with good results.

    Very dymanic render Bunyip!  I admire your ability to move things from character to character.

    Wendy, nice thread.

    I won't be joining in the G9 action for a while.  Too much to explore yet in G3. :)

    I may need to wait until I rejoin DAZ+ and with inflation and the budget the Labor government just dropped that could be a while off yet

    There was a bit of pokethrough which the majority of was solved by playing with the morph sliders.

    So far am impressed with G9, and with the unavailability of Misty's presets for G3 and G8 - only G8.1, it will fill the gap using autofit for clothes.

    Hopefully someone will bring out a script for converting shape morphs. Textures could be a bit tricky. And there is already a freebie pose converter !!!

    not DAZ+ that bundle is  $53.89, buying a $100GC will cost near 200AUD to get 3 months DAZ+ to buy the bundle and any thing else, I still am thinking about DAZ+ and maybe get stuff piecemeal

    Here is a video of transferring Genesis 8 (or other) shapes to Genesis 9 tutorial.  Note, watch until end because he has a correction.

    HELP with T-Pose generations?

    I am trying to convert a Genesis 2 character shape to Genesis 9 following the (turn G9 into clothing for your shape then export 9 as an obj) method following the attached video.  However, the arms do not line up when rotating shoulders or collars to shift G9 from the A pose to the T pose.

    I think the G9 Dev rig must be missing the JCMs for the armpit, and they matter more than the thighs going from G8 to G9

    did you adjust rigging to figure and do ERC freeze before saving the morph?

    Have not gotten to the morph stage yet.  This is just trying to align the G9 dev rig to the base G2F T-Pose.

    I broke my working G9 figure. - solved see below

    I made an Aiko 8 body morph for genesis 9 following the video tutorial by Jay Versuis.  I saved it as a morph asset for studio.  I cleared and loaded a new G9.  Dialed up the Aiko 8 body morph.  Applied female textures from the essentials folder.  I converted to blended.  I saved as a character asset.   When loaded in Carrara, the limbs of the new character no longer bend even though they work in Studio.  What is worse, when I loaded my previous working version of G9 in Carrara, it no longer posed its limbs.

    looks like we may need to create our own clones too, you can bake rotations on the Genesis 2 to the A pose for morph transfer just don't save the figure only export the fitted obj

  • DiomedeDiomede Posts: 15,073

    Hmm.  More oddness.  I exited, rebooted, and reloaded.  Now my original converted G9 character preset is mostly working in Carrara again.  However, one or two joints are still odd.  For example, the shoulders bend and the forearms follow.  But the shoulders 'twist' does not twist the forearms.

    JOINT ISSUE SOLVED

    OK, figured out what was going on with the frozen joints.  They were not frozen.  Instead, certain joints have multiple bone-configs for lack of a better word.  I was inadvertently selecting a sub-configuration instead of the main bone.  Here are some screenshots of the bone hierarchy in Studio and in Carrara.  

    !! - there is a bone labeled 'left upper arm' and two more bones for 'left upper arm twist.'  And of course 'Right Upper Arm' should be selected instead of 'Right Upper Arm Twist.'  Make sure you have the main upper arm selected, not those sub bones labeled with twist.
