Daz almost unusably slow when HD Genesis 8 character loaded

in Technical Help (nuts n bolts)

For some reason when I load the HD version of the Sybile character from Linday my performance degrades very much, I can barely tumble around the character it's so slow. But when i load the regular version of the charcter and dial it's hd morphs to 100 it is still fine. What would the HD version contain that might cause this? Anyone else experience it?

thanks

    In the Editor tab of the parametrs pane, with the Genesis 8 Female figure selected, look in the Mesh Resolution group - what is the SubD Level set to?

    That was it - thank you - it was set to level 4 on the HD character.

    Just for the sake of completeness. I had the exact opposite problem. That is, I needed the viewport subd to be 3x or more. This can be useful both for a good preview of the HD character, and for exporting HD morphs to obj so you can bake them to a normal map.

    The default max subd you can set is 2x though, so if you want 3x or more go to the menu option (the gear icon) and uncheck use limits in the parameter settings.

     

    EDIT: and I really can't get why DS doesn't use normal maps already instead of those clunky HD morphs .. maps are so much faster and you get the same result ..
