*Edit: I changed the title of this thread because I wish to put all of my tutorial videos here as they are made. If you are early to this thread, there is only one video, but I promise, I will add others and keep the links in this first post.

I put together a video showing how to add MetaData to any products in DAZ Studio with the emphasis being on older products. It includes instructions on assigning default compatibility bases so that DS knows what each clothing item is, allowing materials to be directed to the individual items. It also includes instructions on how to assign metadata, categories, and compatibilities to each item and the corresponding material presets. I used Stylin' for M4 as my sample product.

I really hope you find this useful and that my voice is not too irritating to listen to. :cheese:

I hope it is okay to link there, instead of a download at ShareCG or similar site. It is 133MB, so that seems too large for a direct download. I'm sure the mods will catch this if it is not TOS.

Michael 4 is wearing his default boxer brief material in this video, so it is perfectly safe for kids to watch and is safe for work.

OK, now that I have added another video, I'm going to start a list here at the bottom of this post.

Adding MetaData in DAZ Studio 4.6
Setting Up a Favorites Menu

Well, whatever.

I've got almost everybody so far but my main squeeze is still Michael 4 both as himself and as his Genesis version.

Not that I do a lot of people pics anyway.

I'm looking for figures to use as background characters. Figures that are poseable and come with a variety of clothing themes, but won't gobble up system memory and render time. My first instinct was to use some of the older Daz characters I have laying around, since wardrobes are available for them and (I thought) they used less resources for renders than Genesis. Then I heard that Genesis actually has few polys than then Mike4 or or Mike3.

So, my question is, for background characters who need to be posed and dressed for a scene, but who don't have to render very well, should I use:
a) Michael 3
b) Michael 4
c) Genesis (with the Resolution Level turned to Base and Subdivisions 0, maybe)
d) Actual mesh not very important, other factors such as wardrobe, lighting, textures outweigh it.

Any suggestions/comments are welcome. I tried searching the forums, but couldn't find a very good answer. I apologize in advance for any lack of fundamental understand that this question may expose.

Sorry to refer to an older version, but I was only recently able to afford to replace my Poser 6 with Poser Pro 2010. The program's great--EXCEPT for one weird anomaly. I've Googled endlessly without finding a reference to it.

The problem is that when I load certain figures from my library they enter the scene with their body's diffuse color a light blue instead of the original white. When I render them they look like they're dead. Which annoys me because I don't do zombies. In order to get them to look right I have to go item by item through the materials list and change the diffuse color back to white.

I've had this happen most often with the Michael 4 and Victoria 4 figures, though a couple of random Millennium Kids figures also turned blue. If I save the re-colored characters as PZ3's and import them they stay fixed. But if I save a re-colored character back to the library it often reverts to the blue shade. For some reason Victoria 3 library figures open properly without changing colors.

What's going on? Is there at least some script or something for changing all the material colors so I don't have to step through the whole list?

I did not install Mike and Vic in Pro. I am loading them from my original Poser 6 runtime , which I added to Pro's library. Could this have something to do with them getting the blues?

Adding my Monster Mash Halloween Bash entry. I actually started it last month, which is a good thing since the end of September and these past few weeks have been a bit crazy. I wanted to add a little bit more to it, but the file is 215MB in size and really, really slow to load and save. :ohh: I'll just have to be content with it as it is now.

There are a lot of freebies too. Some of them probably aren't quite clear, but I listed them anyway. Never know when someone might think, "I was just looking for something like that!"

well don't quote me on this one but I think assassin had one that was around 121 I think or something like that, so I think you broke the record on that one.

Maybe a stupid question, but I have been playing with Subsurface on Michael 4. From a distance, say 2-3 meters, using velvet, subsurface scattering, bumpmapping etc doesn't seem to make a big difference. But for a closeup, say 50cm, one can see the details more easily.

So am is my thinking correct that using subsurface for skin makes more sense for closeups, and less for shots from a distance?

This entry may very well go down in Daz history here for the most freebie links in an entry. Assassin_21 holds the record but not sure what the count is...but this may have it beat.

I just love all the goings on here. Especially the little ladies in the decorations at the top. Super entry mm.

:-)

ENTRY ACCEPTED

I did this this one just for fun, as I finished my five. Characters from my previous renders are partying upstairs in the Dreamhome and the Tale Hero is looking for his sister, or so he says.

Adding my Monster Mash Halloween Bash entry. I actually started it last month, which is a good thing since the end of September and these past few weeks have been a bit crazy. I wanted to add a little bit more to it, but the file is 215MB in size and really, really slow to load and save. :ohh: I'll just have to be content with it as it is now.

There are a lot of freebies too. Some of them probably aren't quite clear, but I listed them anyway. Never know when someone might think, "I was just looking for something like that!"

http://www.daz3d.com/m4-displacement-maps

If you want your Michael 4 dude (and Genesis, see Jaderail's response in the thread below) to have those bulging veins from adrenaline, it is a DAZ Original so you can use your $6 off monthly code- and get it for $8.97 instead of $24.95. Jaderail was mentioning it to someone who asked how to get veins and I was curious- then smiled when I saw it was a DO- because this month we get that extra 10% for being a PC member. (it's normally 30% but right now it's 40%.)

If you use your code plus that 40% you're saving $15.98

Today's Review is Coalition Rapier Armor (one of my favorites) and Coalition elite textures

http://www.daz3d.com/coalition-rapier-armor
mighty_mestophales, Sequestrian

http://www.daz3d.com/coalition-elite-textures
Sequestrian,shaunahowell

Coalition Rapier Armor is an awesome gen 4 product with a lot of versatility. The set is a full armor body suit, which includes a quite useful undersuit, several armor colors, a helmet, and different colors for the armor's leds. It applies quickly and easily to gen 4 figures. (like Michael 4 Shown here). Unlike products designed for genesis, the armor has some nice clean edges and hard lines which seems to be an issue in gen 5 clothing which I find doughy. Not a problem with this suit. It renders and looks like metal, which I love.

The fit is perfect on gen 4 figures, however it is not as easy to fit to gen 5. While there is a full armor preset, it won't apply to the entire figure, you'll have to manually apply each armor piece. Since the armor has a lot of parts this can be time consuming. However, the results are worth it. I recommend if you are a genesis user applying the armor to default genesis, and then saving the set so you can alter the character and not have to reapply the armor again piece by piece. The set also renders nicely on the female figure. The colors are quite striking and have an amazing metallic feel which I really like. This is a set which I think is quite excellent quality and is perfect for sci-fi renders. Very well done, and worth purchasing.

Coalition Elite Armor Textures

The texture set is for both Rapier and Claymore suits. I do not own the Claymore Armor, but Claymore is a more heavier suit than Rapier-suitable for a tank character like Sarge. I hope to pick up at some point. One thing to note, is that the default texture for Rapier Armor appears to be poser only. (Hence a very light aqua color to ever armor piece when you choose the apply full armor option). To get the DAZ mats, you must individually add the textures to each piece of the armor suit (the individual textures are somewhat tough to discern from the Claymore textures as product view lumps them together). You must hover your mouse over them to discern which is which). There doesn't appear to be an 'apply the full texture' like there is for the Poser version. This is kind of frustrating. I wish there was an apply all option for daz users as well. If I'm missing some obvious way to do this, please let me know, but I'm just not seeing it.

The elite textures have a more scuffed and worn appearance than the default rapier texture which looks shiny and new. The set is also quite nice and produces a different look than the original set. The contrast is nice, and provides a different sort of look for this armor.

Image 1

This is M4. He is wearing default Coalition Rapier Armor. His skin is Samson and morphs are aged. The hair Is Jai. Lights are Jason Lights with the Rim light peach.

Image 2.

This is the same M4. There is an additional yellow point light added under the hand. HeroFX were added to make a yellow ball under the Knight's fingers. I did two renders here, one of the figure with Hero FX and one without. I then layered them in Photoshop and removed the yellow light which appeared over the palm and fingers. I wanted the effect that the light was below the figure's palm. I dislike it when the whole hand is engulfed in a yellow blob because this makes it appear that the light is in front not beneath the hand.

Image 3.

Here is the Coalition Elite Texture In White. Skin is Raw's lords of battle. Lights are Jason with a yellow rim instead of aqua. Eyes are from Woodland Prince. Hair is Cuffed Tail Hair. Backdrop is Designfera Nebula

Image 4.

Same figure as above, Coalition Elite texture Blue

I have left the helmet off on all the renders.

You have to select them manually. When you apply them to Genesis, the autofit dialog will pop up. Select Michael 4 or Victoria 4 as the model the garment was designed for and the appropriate clothing type.

In your product library, under Michael 4, you will see:
Michael 4 Base 13.01 MB
Michael 4 Base StudioCF 87.25 KB
Michael 4 Base PowerLoader 63.98 KB
Michael 4 Base Puppeteer StudioCF

So I'm not sure what that PowerLoader thingie is, but perhaps that has something to do with it too? Which of these got installed? If you want to manually do it, extract the files (you do not drag over the manifest file, that is for the DIM to use. Just the Content, etc) and drag over to My Library/wherever you have your files. When you do this, have the studio turned OFF, and when you open it up again, be sure the Content Management Service is running so the new files are installed.

ENTRY ACCEPTED

:-)

Whether or not Genesis 2 is better than the priginal Genesis is really something only you can decide.

And DAZ 3D has said that they are not going to cease catering for Genesis alongside Genesis 2. Both are still current figures for the foreseeable future. Victoria 4 and Michael 4 are still very current in many peoples runtim,es, and they have been out a long time.

If you want to use any of DAZ 3D figures within a game then you will need to purchase a game developers license.

Grim Reaper: I'd like to look at the African Drum.
Devil: You want drums? Why don't you try out that set over there.

Kismet, Thanks for joining in on the fun. All your links check out and you have the required monster and music element. Music will have the last say since this is his show this month but I think you qualify.

I love the concept that you were going for. A great tongue and cheek kind of thing. I would though have lightened up the scene to better see the elements. If you are using DAZ I know that Shifting Images provided some light settings for the dungeon set. You might want to try them and see how they work for you. This is only a suggestion if you are happy with your scene then all is well and good.

Music may have a different idea about when you should incorporate these comments, but here are some things to include when you enter your next render into the contest.
1. We like to see which of the links go to a registered site. So your sharecg links should have some annotation indicating that free registration is required.
2. Because you have a .3ds model and DAZ can not import this type of file we include the link to a free software that can convert the file to obj which DAZ does like. Here is the link for Poseray which meets the requirement.;
https://sites.google.com/site/poseray/

Again thank you for entering and good luck!

Thank you for the feedback DollyGirl.

I did not know about the conversion program. I imported the skeleton and then resized him. Wish I could have posed him though.

I agree it's dark. I'll see what I can do.

I'm a newbie so the help is very much appreciated.

Your welcome Kismet. As to rigging your skeleton DAZ has the tools to do so. You will have to search far and wide for any free tutorials about rigging. I finally just started buying the tuts here at DAZ to learn. They are still untouched. Just to many things to learn about and rigging gets put to the bottom of the list.
As to lighting options there are some really good uber light packages for free that I use as my starting point when I light a scene. Here are my three most favorite:
InaneGlory's Lights
Wancow's Lights
glaseye's skydome
glaseys's matching lights
Have fun playing. Lighting is probably the most important thing to learn about in this hobby. Lots of people struggle with getting the lighting just the way they want it. You just picked a hard thing to do. Lighting in a dark scene is very tough.

Story of my life. I always seem to do things the hard way until I learn/realize there is a far simpler way to do what I want. :)

The rigging is going to have to wait. I have too much to learn and need to work on shaders for the New Users Contest...but I really enjoy reading the entires for this contest and decided to give it a go.

Grim Reaper: I'd like to look at the African Drum.
Devil: You want drums? Why don't you try out that set over there.

Kismet, Thanks for joining in on the fun. All your links check out and you have the required monster and music element. Music will have the last say since this is his show this month but I think you qualify.

I love the concept that you were going for. A great tongue and cheek kind of thing. I would though have lightened up the scene to better see the elements. If you are using DAZ I know that Shifting Images provided some light settings for the dungeon set. You might want to try them and see how they work for you. This is only a suggestion if you are happy with your scene then all is well and good.

Music may have a different idea about when you should incorporate these comments, but here are some things to include when you enter your next render into the contest.
1. We like to see which of the links go to a registered site. So your sharecg links should have some annotation indicating that free registration is required.
2. Because you have a .3ds model and DAZ can not import this type of file we include the link to a free software that can convert the file to obj which DAZ does like. Here is the link for Poseray which meets the requirement.;

Again thank you for entering and good luck!

Thank you for the feedback DollyGirl.

I did not know about the conversion program. I imported the skeleton and then resized him. Wish I could have posed him though.

I agree it's dark. I'll see what I can do.

I'm a newbie so the help is very much appreciated.
