I had a chance to use this for the first time today, and so far the results look good, although I have not used it too much so far.

Regarding the GenX issues, my observation was that whilst the morphs created by GenX were transferred, the base shapes were not, and rather bizzarely these base morphs were placed in the Genesis 3 morph section instead (which explains why some people experienced issues with the source figure). The problem with GenX morphs is that they are just a delta of the base morph, not a full body morph by themselves, which is something I have always found to be a pain with GenX. If it is not too difficult then maybe a worthwhile enhancement of this app would be to combine GenX morphs with their base.

My advice to anyone thinking of returning this would be to hang on, you have 30 days after all. There are two very competent PAs working on sorting out the issues, and as can be seen in this thread, there are now plenty of testers to look for potential problems.

I prefer if the base morph is controlled seperate actually. You can get some unique results by dialing in the base shape at lower percentages combined with other genx morphs. If combined that option is removed. In a nutshell all you have to do is select the base once, transfer that and then all genx morphs will work on it as they should, granted you dial it up first. It's not too much of an effort to just dial up the base before using genx morphs. Yes GenX should have done this for you where base morph auto dials with genx morphs, but that is not something we can overwrite. This script can only emulate what is linked together, and not designed to create new ones.

Will this transfer morphs from G8M to G8F?  If not, is there something else that does?

It does not, and the only thing I know of that can is Singular Blues free script, which is discussed in this thread: https://www.daz3d.com/forums/discussion/176271/morphs-from-g3-to-g8

The free script is not as easy to use as this product, and from my initial observations does not do as good a job on more extreme morphs, but it is the only thing that gives you a direct transfer from G8M to G8F and vice versa.

I'm on 4.12 and nothing like that shows up on the list for me. All plugs are green and the only place for serial numbers are under aniMate 2 and Face Transfer.

OK before anyone asks yes the female is a bit different with the backpack straps.

I really didn't want to do the female and the straps on the male was a huge pain in the butt.

Plus every female morph totally destroys the chest plate so it took forever to do them.

But I guess it's better than not doing it !

“Universe Explorer for Genesis 8 Females” is the latest space suit for Midnight_stories. It has the feel of the next generator astronauts who are heading out to Mars and the outer solar system. This pack includes Full body suit, Gloves, Boots, Helmet, Cap and Backpack. Plus 9 material presets and 10 body shapes. Also a premade subset with limits on it so you can apply standard poses to it. Gloves have an expand morph to get that spacesuit look. Be on the lookout for the matching Genesis 8 Males version and the Universal Habitat. Great for all your space exploration scene.

Yes the concept is to model to, and make the clothing on the unmorphed basic Genesis figure. After the clothing is made and saved, then load a fresh copy of the clothing to the basic Genesis 8 shape. Make sure "fit to" is applied. THEN morph the Genesis 8 figure. The clothing item should follow along taking the shape of the morphed figure. For extreme shapes additional morphs may be required, or hide certain body parts, whatever works.

Will this transfer morphs from G8M to G8F?  If not, is there something else that does?

3D Art Freebie Challenge November 2019 "Playing Doctor"

Well I even found the time to work out a third idea, so here's my third entry for this month! (Yes, it certainly is addictive! :D)

[Best watched at full size for details.]

"Playing Nurse & Patient"

Starring: Chloe, Linda and Walther

The tale:

"Mr. Bieber! How often do I have to tell you not to go outside with your wheelchair in your underwear? You will probably catch a cold this way!" Linda (11 years old, almost 12) is all alone playing nurse and patient with her Barbie™ dolls. She is a big fan of Justin Bieber (as you can see) and in her mind she of course is the nurse and Justin the patient and her imagination is running away with her...

A Paladin's Work Is Never Done

I did this in record time for me--2 days from concept to render. Not much of a story here, just a standard fantasy game trope--the Paladin laying on hands to heal a fellow warrior after they are done smiting (presumably) evil opponents. Sir Thomas and Lyssana have found a peaceful mountain overlook to rest and recover after their victory over a band of brigands.

The backdrop photo is an overlook at Petit Jean Mountain in Arkansas which I took when we went to see the eclipse.

To get Jade across all you have to do is favourite this morph.

Is this character controlled by a character slider? Or is it just a mix of dialed morphs? 

Base model is FWSA Jade HD for Teen Josie 7. I don't even recall setting most of the dials, so not sure where they came from. Though I created this character 3 years ago so I may have forgotten the process. Looking at the XTransfer folder I see a ton of characters being pulled in.

Getting a Duplicate error now when I load the scene with the G3F character in it:

019-12-01 19:21:39.740 WARNING: ..\..\..\..\..\src\sdksource\fileinput\dzassetdaz.cpp(5995): Duplicate formula found linking CMMClariceNavel & FBMClarice in /data/DAZ 3D/Genesis 3/Female/Morphs/Thorneworks/Clarice/MCMClariceNavel.dsf.

Finally found all the XT creatad files. For anyone curious, in Windows 10 search, to find files starting with XT_  use this:  System.FileName:~XT_* 

As a refresher, the conversion was running at over 4 hours and seemed to be on the same morph for most of that four hours.

I started with a clean scene and loaded FWSA Jade JD for Teen Josie 7. Here's what is currently in use:

• Scale 94.0%
• Render SubD Level (Minimum) 3
• Breasts Downward Slope 35.34%
• Breasts Implants -5.26%
• Breasts Natural -7.14%
• Breasts Perk Side 35.34%
• Breasts Shape 01 10.53%
• Jade Body 100% (default)
• Teen Josie 7 Body 50%
• Teen Josie 7 Body Slim 70.0%
• FW_Nails 70.0% (default)
• Teen Josie 7 Iris (hidden) 50.0%
• Teen Josie 7 Lashes (hidden) 50.0%
• FW_Lashes 25% (default)
• Mouth Realism HD 100% (default)
• Jade Head 100% (default)
• Teen Josie 7 Face Slim 75%
• Teen Josie 7 Head 50%
• Glutes Upper Depth 35.21%
• Legs Length 4.23%
• Thighs Tone 25.35%
• Navel 100% (default)
• Stomach Soften 10.21%
• MCM Josie7Navel (hidden) 50%

My character based on Jade differs from above as follows:

• Scale 100% (default)
• A bunch of hidden pJCMs that are set to 0%

The G3F XT_ files I found (oldest first):

• XT_FW_PHMLashes.dsf
• XT_FW_PBMNails.dsf
• XT_FW_PBMNails.dhdm
• XT_CMMClariceNavel.dsf

And for G8F, I moved and renamed the whole folder. Here's a list of all of the files:

the reason you probably haven't seen character renders in Carrara you like is the lack of ability to natively read HDmorphs

however Philemo has made a plugin to address this where you can export a HD obj from DAZ studio to add a morph to the character in Carrara

https://sourceforge.net/projects/carrara-time-savers/

Try running DS as admin, see if that helps, if you are able to on your OS. There was something about live DB getting stuck, and running DS as admin and updating gave it a kick in the ass.
So far, I am not really impressed. I loaded up like 5 scenes I recently rendered, they were all prettymuch black. Seems the lights don't transfer over or something. Like iray, outdoor renders are super fast and easy, but indoor stuff is a royal pain in the ass. Gonna look for some video tutorials, see if it gets better lol.

filter out bulbs, flames etc in materials and select and rightclick create emissive surfaces textured

Well, the excuse is the problematic shoe fit. Hands don't really have that problem 

No, they don't. But most my characters are fully clothed and don't need to have an HD body, except for the hands, which are showing, hence my request if you think it is worth your time.

Yup. I wish I didn't have to dial in the entire body morph on HD Add-Ons in order to get the hands. BTW, excited to have Nadya, and thanks for giving us some new eye materials. Still waiting for flipped/rotated sclerae?

Hi Richard, thank you for your answer.

The figure is not a morph, it is the base genesis 8 figure. So it affect the base. I also removed all blendshapes created in Maya just in case.

When I export it from Maya and import it into Motion Builder, it works just fine in Motion Builder. The problem arises when exporting it from Motion Builder and importing it into Daz. 

I have noticed two things that might help solve it:

1. In maya, some joints have different scale and transform values, and are not all zeroed out. (but the character in Maya looks correct)

2. When deleting the history of the charachter's mesh in Maya, it looks correct both in Motion Builder, and in Daz. However, if I delete the history on the character's mesh, I lose all my animation, because the characters is now disconnected from the rig.

Is there a way to delete the history of the figure in maya while preserving its animation and its connection to the joints and rig?

Thank you,

Tomer

 

As an example, this is G8F; a morph transferred from G3 (Mia); textures from V4 (Paloma); Freebie dress and Leggings (G8 iirc); the hair is dforce for G8.

Pretty neat that all that can be done! 

I think first pass will be to get my initial poser files working and get daz to recognize my library tree.  In the past I've preferred to maually install files so I know  where they are and what is going on. It takes longer, but when there is a problem I have a better feel for things to diagnose a problem. Besides, if my machine is offline I tranSfer manually anyway.

Right now my Poser Game Developer is still working, but if/when it comes up with an upgrade or die ultimatum, I think i'm out.  I'm just getting a first feel on what it will take to keep my (now rather extensive? expensive?) library of 3D models useful.  It is a HUGE relief that DAZ studio will keep on working, like the EverReady Bunny, when my Poser Game Developer eventually decides to self terminate.

Genesis 3 Products in Poser

The Genesis 3 figures are not officially supported by the DSON Poser Importer. However, thanks to some software from Willdial (You’ll need to search for that freebie at Renderosity), it is possible to make it do so anyway. Now that this range of products is starting to see some very low prices in the sales, it might be worth your considering with some provisos.

Firstly, you will need to be using Windows and Poser 11 – Mac is not supported.

Secondly, there’s no guarantee that future versions of Poser will support the DSON plug-in. While converting Genesis and Genesis 2 products to a Poser native format protects those investments, Genesis 3 cannot be converted at this time.

Thirdly, while there were a small number of accessories for Genesis 2 that were not compatible with Poser, even with the importer, there is a much, much greater number of them for Genesis 3 that can’t be used – and the only real way to know is to spend your money and give them a go. This is the reason I’m starting this thread, so, like my other thread, some experience of these problems can be shared. One of the biggest bugbears is footwear – you can often force fit the stuff that doesn’t quite work, which is mostly OK for me but if you want close ups of footwear, Genesis 3 is probably not your best choice of figure.

Besides a little future proofing, the chief reason for converting the Genesis and Genesis 2 product lines to a Poser native format, rather than to just use the Importer, is for improved performance. Unfortunately, as I mentioned, that isn’t an option for the Genesis 3 figures. I have tried running them through the Netherwork’s File Optimizer but sadly the process breaks all of the JCMs (the morphs are there but the ERC is gone).

That said, if it were possible, there is another reason that it might not be such a useful direction to take. Genesis 3 figures make a lot of use of JCMs (Joint Control Morphs) and clothing creators don’t sculpt these for their products as used to be the case for the pre-Genesis figures – instead, they can relay on Studio’s morph transfer facility that can be used in Poser only via the DSON importer plug-in and not be figures converted to the Poser native format. Certainly, Poser 11 Pro does have a morph transfer tool but I don’t think the results are up to the job.

At this point, if you want to go ahead with trying Genesis 3 in Poser, please make sure you follow Willdial’s advice and install the older Beta version of the DSON Importer. He notes in his guide that three are problems with the geometry under the chin which only occur with the new version of the Importer. However, there is another problem I found with the Female figure – the left side of the expressions were seriously distorted. On top of this, I found that both male and female figures also suffered some strange distortions for the lower eyelids. I found that neither problem occurred with the beta Importer.

So your essential checklist before starting is…

Poser 11 Pro

Windows PC

DSON Importer for Poser Beta (if you have the DSON importer, this should also be in your product library available for download – get it and back it up!). If you already have the later version installed, don’t worry, just run the Beta installer and it will uninstall that for you.

Willdial’s Genesis 3 Poser Updater (search at Renderosity)

A shedload of time to get things started – but once the foundation work is done, it’s done.

Preparation

Fit Control: If you have the Fit Control product or one like it (I highly recommend something like this), then do uninstal before you work to export figures for Poser. After you’ve completed that job, then you add it back before you start work on exporting clothing items.

A Heavy Figure: I have managed to collect up 23 Base Characters for the Genesis 7 Female, along with some additional morph packs to add function and additional form. This creates the same problem I found with the original Genesis, which, like this one, had so many morphs packed in that it is an unmanageably heavy figure, that weighs so much on performance such that moving an arm becomes an exercise in patience. If you have collected a lot of morphs, then the best answer to this problem is the same as I used for Genesis – the creation of light figures. You need to uninstall chunk of your morphs to create lighter figures that retain the functionality you need. I actually created one for each base, all of which retained the various core body and face morphs, along with those for improved function. You should be able to include a few of the Base Characters into each figure without a great loss in performance though.

Finishing

Once you’ve run your figures through the Poser Updater you might look at them and wonder why they look so bland. Where’s all that detail from the Base Character promos? There are, of course, high definition add-ons for the Base Characters but the detail you see in the Base promos is largely from maps – most importantly, the normal maps. I’ve mentioned these before in my thread for converting Genesis and Genesis 2 figures and to illustrate, here’s the Rune character in Poser’s default lighting, first with just her basic texture and subdivision dialled up to 2, and then with the normal maps:

If you think these look a tad ‘too much’, you would be right – I set my normals maps to 1.5 but not without reason. I’m not rendering for realism but with a view to post-working the image into a faux painting and for that, if I need this sort of detail at all, I need it to be a little exaggerated to prevent it being lost in the process.

Some detail of this kind can also be added from morph packs, such as body tone and the detail for the knees but normal maps are efficient and resource friendly, so if you have them, best to use them.

Due to restrictions in the size of posts, I've split off the tables of tested products into the following three posts. I'll be updating this post with a more detailed tutorial over the weekend.
