I would like to purchase vintage London double decker bus but only if I can hide the advertising signs. Is that an option? Thanks

    In the readme you will see that there is an option in the tex files for  the exterior ads

    • /Runtime/Libraries/Pose/DDBus/DDB Exterior Ads Style 01.mc6

    • /Runtime/Libraries/Pose/DDBus/DDB Exterior Ads Style 02.mc6

    I think this will mean that you should be able to alter this tex map so that it is just the base colour, using a paint program.   In your product library you will see that there are templates availalbe for the bus

    I'm still pretty much a beginner here. I understand what you did but I've looked everywhere and cannot find the advertising files so I can edit them. Can someone tell me where they and are/or their file names? My Daz products are installed using the default settings.

    Thanks

    If you just want to remove the advertisising from the renders you don't need to edit tany files at all.  The base red colour of the paint job of the bus is done by just using colours and no map files at all, so if you pick one of the 'base colour' surfaces (such as Paintredinfo) and copy it to the surafce that is used to show the adverts (info_adverts).  Now, to find those, select teh bus in the scene tab and go to the Surafces tab, expand the Ddb_Base entry to see all the surafces the bus has), then pick the Paintredinfo surafce, right-click and pick the option to 'Copy Selected Surface(s)' data, then select the info_adverts surface, right-click and pick the 'Paste to Selected Surface(s)' option. You should notice the advertising change into a 'plain' red.

    That worked, thanks! I thought you meant to edit PNG files, just make them red.
