    I'm not sure but in others contests it's always at 11:59:59 PM on the day of the contest although I've seen them allow late entries allowing for the later midnight in the Pacific and Alaska/Hawaii timezones.

    I finally was able to finish mine:

    Medbay Exam #VR

    An example of augmented reality.

    I rendered this out in several layers. An Iray base image, then duplicated the patient, moved her up a bit, applied the Muscle maps and rendered only the character. Then took that character, applied the wireframe and rendered that out in 3Delight. Same process for the skeleton/guts character. Put it all together in PS.

    My first try I was a dope. I had two cameras, slightly different placements. Do not ask me why. So anyway some of the images matched, some did not. I wasted a few renders on that. blush

    OK, I had to call time on mine & my display driver was threatening to crash at only 3% rendered.

    Thank you Knittingmommy and Linwelly. It was a fun render, aside from the mix up. I am a big fan of the Wireframe and Hologram shaders, they are great to work with. There are actually two layers on each of the 3Delight renders - for example, on the "guts" I applied a hologram shader (rainbow one), but on top of that I created a geoshell and applied a wireframe shader to that. It gave a much richer look than one or the other alone, at least in this case.

    That's for sure. A lot of imagination and skill on display here, as usual.

    FBX export is not the same as using Substance PBRs in Unity. As far as I know PBR is not supported by the FBX standands meaning DAZ couldn't export PBR texture sets via FBX even if they wanted too. That is tech that is probably in the AutoDesk and DAZ pipeline but it's not there yet.

    Following looks pretty PBR to me, but you are right about the new Simplygon version, the in Unity cloud version was far better and more accurate, just started using the desktop SDK version, terrible

    The big reason why that looked so good in Unity and incidentally runs at 60 fps even unreduced is because the artist bothered to included good textures with a normal and height map, what the artists on Daz should do is create Normal, Height and Metallic Maps as well as the Diffuse maps, this way PBR substance rendering shaders can use them and get this type of result, this was even without a Metallic map which would make it even better, so nothing to do with the FBX exporter as I can just copy the orignal files from the content directories of Daz doesn't have to be embedded in the FBX export.

    Here is my entry. I uploaded to my gallery with #VR at the end of the title, so I hope that works.  I do not use he gallery much so I don't know how all that tag stuff works.

    Well, it's showing up alongside the other entries, so I'd say it's fine.

    Great pic btw :)

    Well, the man said that "if its not over when you get there, you're not late", so here is a nearly last minute entry. I had to go looking for quite a few free items to complete the scene, and am continuously grateful to all those out there that never disappoint. (They are listed in the description in the gallery, and I can provide links if anyone is interested). Here's what it all looks like: Virtuoso

    ...I really like this.  Nice interpretation of Augmented Realty.  Looks like it could be an illustration from one of the game books.

    Been involved with Shadowrun since 1st ed in 1989.  Creating illustrations of characters and scenes from the game world is part of how I got involved in 3D as it was getting harder to draw and paint because of advancing arthritis and I wanted to illustrate a story that came out of a campaign as well as character and general scene pics from the SR world.

    ...really nice works here. Tried to come up with something, but two weeks was a bit tight and didn't come up with an idea I felt would fit until it was pretty much too late to get a start and have the rendering finish in time..
