I got the main horse 2 in a prmo sale a bit ago..but it only comes with 

  • Bay
  • Black
  • Grulla

    I know I've seen other textures... where do those come from?

    Also ... what about Iray..is it possible to apply uber shader to achieve iray? or what is the manual method of doing that?

    The other textures come with the horse Pro pack (complete) or partially with the starter pack. https://www.daz3d.com/daz-horse-2-pro-bundle

    Pro Bundle Content for the DAZ Horse 2:

    • 5 Breed Shapes:
      • Donkey
      • DraftHorse
      • Mule
      • Mustang
      • Thoroughbred
    • 8 Horse Material Presets:
      • BlueRoan
      • Buckskin
      • DappleGrey
      • GypsyVanner
      • HancockRoan
      • LeopardAppy
      • MahoganyBay
      • SilverGrey

    Starter Bundle Content for the DAZ Horse 2:

    • 3 Breed Shapes:
      • Arabian
      • Emaciated
      • Shetland
    • 5 Horse Material Presets:
      • Buttermilk
      • Fleabitten
      • Palomino
      • SmokeyGrulla

    There are Iray material packs in the store, but you need the textures from the Pro pack:

    EDIT: but you can also apply uber and adjust the settings, just be aware that the textures have no bump or normal maps, and so won't have any hairy effects.

    Really don't need one with this product for the horse2 from Linday, it takes it to a whole other level and I can't imagine DAZ doing any more than what Linday did.!

    https://www.daz3d.com/hd-dark-knight-for-daz-horse-2

    daveso, if you do a forum search for horse 2 textures, there were a few threads about using the older Milhorse textures on the horse2 and where to find the addons to make it happen.

    it looks like the files needed are no longer available. the sites are gone. too bad ... so Horse 2 Mil Horse UV and Clone.zip and RTEncoder are needed. 

  • davesodaveso Posts: 7,793

    anyone have Horse 2 Mil Horse UV and Clone.zip and RTEncoder ?

    Is there a way to put Milhorse textures on Horse 2? I have a ton of them.

    The only sources of those are their respective authors or their authorised redistributors.

    You could try PM-ing Cauri Blackthorn - the last post on the subject was back in May this year - you can find it here: https://www.daz3d.com/forums/discussion/comment/3638726/#Comment_3638726

    but the file seems to have gone awol again.

    just sent a PM ..the email address bounced. might have to grab DAZ Horse 2 Pro if it ever goes on sale. Consdiering I already have at least 4 of the items in the PRO bundle, not really wanting to pay more than $20 on it. hopefully it shows as a free bundle or something. i really have no use for most of the stuff in there. 
    or learn how to do UV maps and stuff like that.

    strange there isn't a separate morph and texture pack for Horse 2.

  • MelanieLMelanieL Posts: 7,726

    Many have said that! (I got the Pro Bundle when first released) According to the Browser Add-On the price has been down to $20.99 in September - it may even have turned up as a freebie with some purchase combination or other, but the Add-On can't show that.

    well you can use the Centaur textures on the body, they are in fact identical with the name horse 2, it won't help you with the head though

    if you are keen you may be able to fluff something using the clone tool in an image editor keeping seam areas plain if you don't have a 3D painting app

    LadyFyre Graphics has a free conforming mane as an alternative to the mane included with Horse 2 with that weird gap before the ears: https://ladyfyre-graphics.com/product/poser-and-daz-studio-content/daz-horse-2-mane/

    The DA Unicorn and SF Unicorn also have alternate manes for Horse 2.

    if you apply iray uber to the horse you can copy and paste them

    or save as shader presets for anything 

    I know because I have used RAWarts Zebra one for his Rogan on the Horse 2 with a fairly plain head

    The various surfaces in the surfaces tab. The centaur is Iray only so you need to apply the uber iray shader to the horse 2 so that you can copy an iray only shader and paste it to another surface that wasn't originally Iray .

    I am assuming you have the centaur and want to apply the shader to horse 2, if not this is irrelevant.

    if you do you cannot just load a preset and if you want the same iray shader you cannot just browse for maps

    so load both in scene, apply iray uber to the horse then copy from the centaur body and paste the shader on the horse body in the shader editor

    no, i dont have the centaur. no need for a human headed horse frown  i just wanted to put all those Milhorse textures I have onto Horse 2, but the program for that is no longer available. The email for the creator does not work. I PMs here with no response. 

    So my next thing is to figure out how to make a milhorse clone or something like that ... or figure out how to change the Horse 2 UV mapping to accept the Milhorse textures ... but then you also hgave to deal with the shape morphs ... I think it probably a waste of time. The Horse 2 PRO is too expensive just to buy for horse types and textures. DAZ should have that as a separate package. I bought tone of the IRay horse utilities..not much of a difference in the render, other than the iRay one is a bit darker and crisper ... 

    A most frustrating experience as are a lot of things using Daz Studio. I spend more time trying to figure out how to use purchased utilities than creating art. i have spent a lot of cash on stuff that just doesn;t function all that welll without a whole lot of manipulation.

    yeah sadly I cannot share it with you or risk doing so

    with the clone and UV it is actually rather easy to transfer textures and shapes between the two

    Sorry for being quiet that long, I had a lot of things going on, over the past year, I will upload my remap and clone again in the near future.
