Daz Studio Premiere questions

in Daz Studio Discussion

I'm thinking of upgrading my membership from Daz+ to Premiere but wondering what the big differences are between Daz regular and Daz Premiere. I've looked at the webpage, but i'd rather hear from actual users. Does Premiere have any special requirements that Daz regular doesn't?

Also, with the Studio 2025 in the works, will that also update Premiere?

Thanks in advance!

    Daz Studio Premier is regular DS with a bunch of extra plugins. The base program is the same, but having a premier subscription activates the plugins. The requirement it introduces is that you need to login from DS regularly so that DS can check your membership status, so your computer needs to be able to access the internet.

    Regarding the premier plugins, most of them are a reworked version of plugins by ManFriday which were available as standalone previously, with little changes from their previous versions: Shape Transfer (figure converter), Pose Converter, Render Queue, Simulation Manager (dForce Companion). Geometry Sculptor is what was initially planned as Mesh Grabber 4.

     

    The various premier plugins already have a version for DS2025 alpha, except Geometry Sculptor which is still in the works.

    Geometry Sculptor has been available for DS 2025 for a while now, though it was a few versions later to appear than the others.

    Looks like I missed that. That's good news.

    Awesome and incredibly helpful information to have!  Thank you both so much!

    Okay, now that I've got Daz Premiere (it says so when I open it up, so I know it's verified me), where are all these plugins I didn't have before?  I see nothing new in any of the menus and can't find any documentation anywhere that tells me how to access these plugins.

    There are quick, flashy videos on the Premiere webpage, but tells you nothing about where they are and how to use them.

    Help, please?

    Never mind.  I found the plugins accidentally while messing around with IM and got them installed.  But still can't find any documentation on them.  Some (like Pose Converter) is pretty intuitive, but not sure about the others.

    (Also found the thread about installing them right after I installed them. Doh!)
