CARRARA CHALLENGE 46: Get your Retro on
an extension....
I'll get my third one up and in..
The pinball machine I modeled and then assigned shading domains for some of the areas. I then used PSE to create the textures for the shaders.
also modeled the boots... spaghetti wires, pinball beanie and used Genesis child morph with some assorted clothing.



Love the boots, any chance of a screenshot showing your shader setup for the Pinball machine ?
How do parameter Favorites work now?I've noticed for a long time now that morph dials that you Favorite do not get saved with scenes. They used to though, a very long time ago (I know because I used to save the eye and head-neck positioning ones with every character). Does anyone know if and how you *can* get saved scenes or subsets to retain favorited parameters? Thanks in advance.
I don't think you can anymore!
Favorite parameters are only set for that specific object.By the way, nowadays most of us use this product for eye/head/neck positioning: https://www.daz3d.com/look-at-me-pose-control

Credits: The head is from the Bianca character, which I understand is a very popular morph for V4. Did not use the body. Instead used standard V4 Utopian body morph and some other tweaks. Skin was Lana.LP Record and needle came from Retro HiFi. Various Egyptian outfits and props were from Pharaohs of the Sun for M3 and V4. The V4 top is from Brazen, and retextured using Yellow Anodized Aluminum.
All the background females are V1. No postwork.
Genesis 3 characters load weird shapeThe ability to have a non-zero default value is sometimes vital to a product's functioning - the odd time it causes an issue, which is easy to work around and fairly easy to fix, is a necessary trade-off
I genuinely don't understand why it would ever be necessary to allow a PA to create a morph for their character that will, without any input from the user, alter every single character (derived from the same base) in the user's library, often in subtle ways that are difficult to detect. Personally, I'd love to see a bit of sandboxing here, that's all.
How much you allocate for DAZ purchases per month?I already own too much of content, I keep $100 for a Male Pro bundle or some new releases.
There are too many figures in my library, I'm less interested by adding more.
for sure...most of the new figures are custome morphs, but its possible to morph your own to pretty mcuh anyone you want ... now I mainly buy for great skin textures than the character.
Genesis 3 characters load weird shapeSorry to resurrect an old thread, but I've just encountered this problem as well, but with G8F. A third party content creator's body morph has contaminated all of my G8F characters, and I've been having to zero it out every time I load a character (I'll try the more permanent solution mentioned above). Am I the only one who thinks this is a MAJOR design flaw of Daz Studio? It shouldn't be possible for a content creator to screw up a user's entire library. Ever.
Cannot find V4/Deltas/Base/InjDeltas.PHME ??Amazing and astounding to me it was right where you said it was. It appears to be part of the original DL of DAZ so many years ago. All it does is flash on the screen when I run it... let's see if it did anything to the face poses...
It's installed with V4 base, not DS. Basically it lists all the V4 morphs you have installed in your V4 Runtime and creates special delta files to add all morph channels V4 needs to load those morphs when you load the figure.
It's only needed for Generation 4 figures.
Fit Control Add-On (Commercial)I'm disapointed that it still doesn't add controls for sleaves and gloves to be over / under each other.
Hi. Did you try the Expand Wrists & Hands morph under Torso & Universal Adjusters?
Ah-ha! That's what I get for looking under Top Morphs instead of G3F updates. In the cart it goes!
Let me know if it does the job. If not I will try a revision.

Realistic Neko Ears (Male/Female)The Thistle ears are conforming, not a morph.
Thistle comes with ear morphs, though, that can be used to change the ear shape.
Yes, but I don't use that iteration of Genesis, so I would personally prefer a set I could adjust to fit any character. :-) Someone in a different thread said that the ears were a separate object, which is why I wishlisted them. Is that not accurate? I will take them off my wishlist if the ears are just a G8 morph.
... no, they are conforming. Whew! Still hope for anime pics for my weebo kids!

Hmm... also getting a "A valid PstgreSQL CMS connection could not be established. blah blah many features no work without one blah blah. Check your network, anti-virus, and firewall settings for conflicts. I am not sure why THAT's a thing I don't recall changing any options on my anti-virus. Doesn't appear to be related.
Okay... It didn't work for ALL(?) the files. A group of files I use as my "set everything but the character face morphs to zero" option by Aenigma 93 is still telling me I'm issing those Delta files but it appears all the OTHER face morphs are working.l I'm going to check each folder to verify which ones are and are not working real quick.
Not working

I seem to recall this affected more than just FOUR sets. That's an improvement I suppose. It appears that only the deepest/widest face morph sets are affected by this bug I've created for myself. Any other thoughts on where this files might be so I can re-copy them or re-DL them?

That face looks awesome. Such an intense look.In case anyone is interested what you get after the HD morph is removed from the store, here's Sanjay without the HD.
Sanjay 8Cool. Looks pretty good even with out the HD morph. Thanks for sharing that.
Any chance you could run the same render, but with the HD morph to show a comparison? (If it's not a particularly long render and if you grabbed the HD add-on; no need to go out of your way for it).
I don't actually have the HD right now. I was taking things out, and putting things into the cart, then went to the checkout and hit the purchase button in the very same millisecond that I realized I'd forgotten to put the HD back into the cart. I've sent a ticket to see if they could add the HD to my product library. TBH, with non-wrinkly characters, I wouldn't normally even bother with the HD, but if it's free, then I'll take it.
No problem, and thanks again for sharing the non-HD version. I do hope you're able to get the free HD add-on since it was supposed to go with it, though.
