Once Again - The Importance of Backups
I have Macrium Reflect (free) do daily backups. It gives a lot of ease of mind, even just knowing that I can overwrite a file like a morph and know I can get the previous version easily.
I hadn't heard of that program, but I just Googled it and bookmarked the page ready to take a look at the weekend. Thanks for mentioning it.

(Free comission) what clothes do you want?Congratulations Alarconte ! That is looking fabulous!
I would say that is a pretty close depiction of that iconic Sci-Fi Noir-Film dress.
Looks like I have to start working faster in finishing up a face morph for a "Nexus-7 Replicant" of the lovely Rachel for us
to use that dress. I know Sean Young will look gorgeous in it
- Here is some more interesting information//ideas for you.... ( watch the cool video )
RareStone is KILLING MEWow, me too! I was totally thrown off by the main promo. This emphasizes the importance of a good main promo image to represent the product. I probably never looked inside to see the other promos. I have several other RareStone items and all have been good. This is now on my wishlist for a future sale.
Greetings,
Yeah, the first item I saw of theirs was the somewhat misnamed School Sports Outfit which contains a jacket, a shirt, sports shorts, TWO one piece swimsuits, THREE socks (including a pair of loose socks), a solid dozen PROPS, and a ton of textures. Not to mention a really spectacular set of promo pictures. I had almost skipped over it, but when I dug in, I was downright SHOCKED at how much there was. I think I dug in because I was curious if it listed where it got some of the japanese school props from...and then I realized they were part of the 'outfit' package.
O_O¡
I don't own the face morph collections, but otherwise yeah...I have 11 of their 13 items, and they're on my list of folks to always look at their items, because the titles and first promo pictures don't always do them justice.

Oh holy smokes. I thought that outfit set was just a leotard this whole time.
It's a great product and includes several clothing items, shoes, props, etc. It's one of my favorites and is really a great deal considering how much you get with the product. The main promo image is definitely misleading.

Error message when I load up G8FTo expand, something you added has that malformed line in it. The line is not case sensitive. So it down to change you made between the last time you loaded without the error and now. That should narrow the possible targets. If you ran my script, it experiemental and I keep find new ways it trips over itself. If you did not, then some product you added has that malformed code in at least one morph or property.
Unless you were running a script meant to do something else, I suppose.What morphs/textures were used to create this look (Classy Cover Photo Light by The Philosopher)?Thanks for the replies! What settings have you applied to these morphs? 100% or 120%? Or have you turned off the limits and raised it up even more?
Thanks a lot,
Me
Look for morphs that have HD in their name relevant to the character models you are using & dial in at 100%. There is often a combined slider morph dial that will dial in all the HD morphs at one and also often HD presets that effectively do the same.
Alexandra 8I agree about her needing a bit more sagging options. She should be the aging base...not needing another add on to make her look older. Of course I could tweak or remorph any character. But the point of buying a mature looking model is to not have to do that. I'm just saying that an additional aged body morph and preset would be a nice inclusion. Otherwise, I like her. Good on Daz for bringing something new.
Morphs from G3 to G8So I've been testing transferring between genders, especifically G3F to G3M. I was successful with transferring Sakura 8 to G8M > G3M > G3F, but results vary when I try to transfer other figures between males and females. For example, I transferred Aiko 7 to G3M. I ran the script successfully, but the morphs won't show up when I clear the scene, close Daz, restart and load a G3M.
- So I looked up the path for Aiko 7 morphs: W:\DAZ RESOURCES\My DAZ 3D Library\data\DAZ 3D\Genesis 3\Female\Morphs\DAZ 3D\Aiko 7
- And compared them to the Aiko 7 transferred morphs: W:\DAZ RESOURCES\My DAZ 3D Library\data\DAZ 3D\Genesis 3\Male\Morphs\DAZ 3D\Aiko 7
The 66 morphs did get transferred (or at least they show up in G3M data folder), but they just don't show up like Sakura 8 did. I also checked in the Parameters tab (since I did manage to get Aiko 6 & Keiko6 (from Gen2 legacy shapes) transferred to G3M, but they only shows up in the parameters tab, not the shaping tab). However, Aiko 7 wasn't there either. I then tried to transfer Victoria 7 to G3M, but it's the same as Aiko 7. The folder is there inside the \data\DAZ 3D\Genesis 3\Male\Morphs\DAZ 3D\Victoria 7, but the morphs themselves don't show up inside DAZ. The names for each morph transferred over in small caps, but even replacing them to match didn't make them appear. Will try with other non "flagship" Daz characters next.
G8F's left foot toenail beds?No standard shells. I don't know about rigidity, but I don't think so. None of my tests has shown any particular issues in that area, but they aren't exhastive.
G8's nails are like previous Genesis nails and unlike G3's. They are a part of base mesh, not separate. Thus no nail bed. If you are having an issue with G3 morph, this is probably going to be factor.issue with verts around 3 of her toenails, to various degrees with her every character FBM.
rigidity is something to explore, no idea how it works.Head shot and genesis questionYou can transfer G3 morphs to G8 using this script https://www.daz3d.com/forums/discussion/comment/3309101/#Comment_3309101 G8 can wear G3 materials, but this might be helpful anyway https://www.daz3d.com/genesis-3-character-uvs-for-genesis-8-femaleAlexandra 8Would someone that got https://www.daz3d.com/kellyn-for-alexandra-8-and-genesis-8-female mind doing a quick test to see how she looks without Alexandra dialed in?
Sorry if its not obvious but she comes with 2 morphs, one of which does not use Alexandra.
Oh awesome, thanks! I guess I looked at that wrong and didn't pick up on that. That morph is exactly what caught my eye about her, along with the bodypaint. Kellyn is definitely going in my cart today, still on the fence about Alexandra herself though. She's a great character, just not sure I'd use her enough to justify spending the extra cash right now.

Clothes from MD appear stretched out when posing in DAZ3DBeat578, I wish I knew of some tutorials I could point you to, but I don’t. I use zbrush for my JCMs. It’s a matter of importing the pose into zbrush and then adjusting the garment to fit the joint rotation smoothly by moving and smoothing vertices into a decent shape, then importing the corrections back into Daz Studio as a morph (JCM) and linking it to the joint rotation through the Property Hierarchy. I really don’t know any tutorials that teach that. I’m sorry

2018-02-13 18:19:13.306 Loaded image flatten incredible.pngMorphs from G3 to G8I used this last night for the first time. Initially I did it wrong but I sorted out the problem (same as Haruchai's above, which I repeated because I used the instructions in the post SB's sig links to). Except I had somehow _partially_ transferred morphs (they did nothing but change height and generate a lot of log errors) and then couldn't get rid of them even when I deleted and uninstalled and reinstalled the entire base. I started to ask for help here, then realized I ought to look in the directory that had originally been first in my Content Directory Manager -- and there they were. Once I deleted them I was able to transfer the morphs correctly. (It was Sakura 8 to G8M, btw.)
Anyhow, I wanted to leave this experience here, in case other people come along in the same pickle, or in case it helps SB figure out a workaround for the final product to use.
Thank you very much!
Alexandra 8Is her body texture/morph aged appropriately to match her head? Its hard to really tell without a nude promo. I know you can use some additional products to help age her.
On page one, Divamakeup has posted some renders in bikinis. Both textures and morphs look aged to me. I think there was even cellulite on the legs.
virtual penny 4 yor carrara thoughts ?!!

a mermaid tail character would solve the toenail problem, lol
I know that the guy doing a script to convert between different characters is also having issues with the nail beds.
there's nothing that makes sense for a morph to move verts in 1 software and not another.
the most likely suspect, thought something with the subdivision level, hypothetical verts.
doesn't seem to make a difference.nipple heighttheres quite a few breast morph products, many with complete reshape morphs that will point the nipple appropro to the shape, pendulous, whatever.
