da_kovacs I will show you what to do.

The Daz Studio version I have is the same 4.24.

I have switched to Texture Shaded in the Viewport for easy working, if you choose NVIDIA Iray View, it will be slower to work with.

Below the Pesrpective Drop down menu, there is a "Cube" called View: Vantage (LMB) | Orbit (LMB + Drag) 

Position the Mouse pointer over, pressing the Left Mouse Button and try to "move" the Viewport Left, Right, Up or Down.

I use this tool very frequently to work with the characters or the Environment.

Hope this helps you.

Edit: I am Using Mattymanx, MMX-Dark DS - A Dark user style for Daz Studio

Find it in the forum.

 

 

Hi There!

Thanks for the suggestions. Using the cube, orbit, pan and the other options work perfectly. My main concern is that, this is the only way I can move anything in Viewport. I can't move the environment, just the character or object directly. I just watched a tutorial recently and the guy way moving the "space" in Viewport freely, I mean just by selecting Universal Tool. Also, I just noticed that when Universal Tool is selected on your end, it turns yellow. Mine doesn't do anything at all. By just looking at it I'm not even sure which option is active from the bar..it is really weird.

Uncompress the file, using the Batch Convert pane or soemthing like 7Zip, open in a text editor, and search for the file name (remembering to replace spaces  with %20 and so on in the name).

yup, did that with the basic Genesis 8 Female.dsf and several character dsf's.
EDIT:
I did that search on the basic Genesis 8 Female dsf and *.duf files. No results.
With every character morph installed, this would take a lot of time.
So is there no short cut for finding this corruoting file reference?
UPDATE:
with notepad  ++ , I did a search on that file with all open files.
0 results out of 198 open *.dsf files.

I thought i would add this image that i was using to show the Daz Premier character Link for Lyna to someone in the forum:

Link for Lyna

Cyber Augments HD for Genesis 9

Cyber Lie Details for Genesis 9

Quick Cyberpunk Vignette

Just to show you what I did.  I logged into Daz3d  (using Daz Studio in the case) with the updat metadata clicked.  As it loads, I see the progress bar showing updating metadata (#1).

#1

I then went to the Install Tab, and had it sort by date and search by "9" as in Genesis 9 (#2). A you can see here, I haven't installed the ManWolverine.  I clicked on Link and installed  He then appeared in Install Tab, Smart Content Tab, and isn't quite visible in Content Library Tab (a virtual location shows up).

#2

and Voila Link!

His thing was writing these LOTR derivative novels largely using AI and just changing around the character names and what not. He largely used AI to generate these works and they were quite atrocious. If you search "Dondorale," you'll surely discover an endless stream of related, errr ehh hemmm, works online. I digress. I became frustrated at how often he failed to even get the gist of my advice in plain English, often taking the exact opposite message than what I intended. For example, if I'd say, "Hey Bud, it's ok to use Chat GPT to generate an outline for a story you want to write or to improve how you've written a paragraph, but don't try to publish the raw output as your original work," he might take, "You mean, Chat GPT will write the story for me? Now I can turn out 10 novels a year."

Anyways, this one is for Jake.
 

Wait... you mean I could use ChatGPT to make an entire comic book?

 

wow....

meanwhile in Carrara  

sent a forum message april 29.

After the last DS update, the "filter by context" stopped working. It's as if my G8 figures weren't G8 figures.

In the "Smart Content" panel, to use poses, utilities, etc., I need to disable the "filter by context" and manually search for the desired item.

This has made my work very difficult, since I have figures from different generations and there are many incompatible items between them.

Has anyone experienced this?
Can anyone help me?

Can someone explane to me how to embed a video in the way all of you are doing it.

I mean with a picture to click on and then it will lead to youtube for example. 

when i put the url into a video link I get just the url as a text. 

The forum search function was absolutely no help.

thanks in advance.

Beginner Challenge:
"Action / Using Props"

This month's focus will be action with an emphasis on interaction with props. Your characters' actions, or the props they are using or interacting with, should be a major aspect of your image. As always, posing techniques, composition, and lighting will be important considerations as well.

Some Inspiration:
Digital Art Action Scenes
Human Action Poses
Action Photography
The Fundamentals of Action Photography
The Best Sports Photos of 2016
 

While we encourage you to create your own poses from scratch for this contest, many of the pose sets available in the store can offer some great inspiration on how to use props in active situations!
 

To fit the theme of "Action & Props," your render could depict anything from a melee to a barbecue, or from a pop concert to a masquerade ball, or even a bar room brawl. The key points are that it must include some sort of dynamic movement or activity, and that it must involve interaction between figures and props (tools, weapons, or any sort of objects being manipulated).

Richard, I just joined DAZ Premier. When do I start getting emails?

Which emails? Newsletters? They get sent on the release days (Tuesdays and Fridays) - this thread is about forum notification emails.

Hello.
Here I am again with my questions, hahaha!
I think it's a difficult question, but this forum is very large and there are people who know a lot, maybe I'll get lucky!
With all the new Nvidia cards and the leaks online about the new Quadro A6XXX with 5090 GPUs and 96GB of VRAM, I'm wondering, will the TESLA series, which are becoming somewhat obsolete and dropping in price, be compatible with IRay and use them for multi-GPU rendering?
Greetings and thanks for reading.

I usually use google with "site:www.daz3d.com/forums" as a search term

Nice Luci! Forum notifications are not working for me (and probably a lot of others).
