Hey, Hylas.  Yes, in the Legacy UVs for Genesis 8 pdf I explain about the alterations I needed to make to deal with the eyes.  I also gave instructions for using legacy eye textures with Genesis 8 textures, but not the other way around!

The solution is to hide the Sclera attachment (by selecting the Cornea Legacy and Sclera Legacy Surfaces of the geograft and setting the opacity to zero), then click the "Legacy UVs Eyes Zero Adjustment" preset in the Components subfolder, which will reset the Irises size using a hidden morph.  Your preset seems to replicate the "Legacy UVs Eyes Zero Adjustment" preset, but you will still need to hide the Sclera attachment.

"Wishful thinking..." (Food for thought)

Hi there!

I'm still confused about Cayman's Legacy UV products, M4 for G8M and V4 for G8F.

I know how to make them work and apply a M4 skin to my G8M.

But then I'd like to change just the eyes to conventional G8 materials (while keeping the rest of the M4 skin) and I can't quite figure it out. The iris and pupils are extremly dilated and there's a weird geograft part in the sclera that I can't make sense of. I can see that there's some kind of hidden eye morph connected to the product but I can't figure out how to get rid of it.

Help please? How do I apply conventional G8 eye materials to a G8 figure that has Cayman's Legacy UV applied to them? Thank you!

Mystique G8F           Alison G8F by Raiya            Advanced Seated Poses G8F         Classic Long Curly Hair G8F  

When I seen this outfit I thought that is really well done!  And I was not disappointed, I like that it has full coverage and still looks sexy.  It has morphs included to shape areas to fit a corseted body. All the pieces are seperate so you can kitbash all you want. I only had to do a few tweaks on the shoulder and one of the garters had a slight bump in it.  I thought I would have to adjust the hat but all I did was run an simulation with the timeline starting the hat just above the hair and coming down durning the sim.  I used to do more risque scenes back when I used Poser and this is probably one of my first since then!

The poses are wonderful!  In the original pose the creator used a different stool but I made some minor adjustments and that was all! The pose looked great, of course then I had to tweak this and that and adjust things to my OCD liking, LOL. (They work well with G8M too!)

The hair is one of my favorites!  I have always pretty well been able to get it to drape pretty close to how I want it.

The girl Alison by Raiya is beautiful but I had a really hard time getting a decent smile from her.  She comes with 3 eyelash options, 2 normal options, 6 eye colors (some unique ones too), 7 lip options with glossy on and off, No brow option, 6 makeup options and 3 eyeliner options.  She has no nail color options so I had to get those from another character.

Yeah, with chromatic SSS, you pretty much want to use white for the base and transluceny colors. You can alter the skin tone itself a bit using the transmitted color, which is generally a shade from pink to orange. No longer does the rule "lower transluceny for ligher skin" work...with chromatic SSS, you need a higher translucency (all my characters use 75% and higher), even on lighter skinned characters, because you need that SSS map to shine through. The SSS map is where you want all the nice fleshy details and veins. To build a SSS map, I take the color map and blend in AJ's blood vessel maps along with one of the more detailed DO G3 SSS maps (V7 for girls and Lee 7 for boys). The end result is a nicely blended SSS map. It can become tricky when the character you are working on has body hair painted directly onto the color map...which is a whole other issue and I wish it wasn't done but I understand why because not everybody has the horsepower to render modeled body hair (Dain and Michael 7 being prime examples). 

For specular details, you are defiinitely not forced to use the ones that come with the character you're working on. I tend to build out "frankenskins" or mashups of skins...color map from here, specular map from there, etc. As long as they line up relatively decent (and use the base UV), you're good to go. I've attached an example of a mashup...it is LY Bramble's color map, with a rebuilt SSS map, and Victoria 7's specular, bump, and normal maps. Victoria 7 has gorgeous specular details. The second example I've attached is reworked Monique 7 (borrowing Monique 8's eyebrows)...but you can see how gorgeous of specular details Monique 7 has after reworking the skin to use chromatic SSS. The third example is completely reworked Michael 7 to use chromatic SSS. 

It should be noted for render racers, that chromatic SSS will add on to render times rather significantly (it's pretty much the main reason why G8 characters will take longer to render than G3 characters...generally speaking).

Pixolygon said:

Without having dug through this entire thread, will NGS work on a G8 figure that's using a V4 texture via V4 for G8F by Cayman?

Very late reply, but the trick is to run the scripts when you have the v4 textures set up on a victoria 4, then save it as a preset and then bring that preset over to G8F, so you don't become entangled with the new material zones.

I am transfering a material from Genesis to G3 on a character I converted toG3 with GenX2,  I use Cayman's script to prepare G3 for the genesis material and then I tried to run NGS on it but it doesn't transfer to the new material zones.  So what you are saying is to put the material on Genesis run NGS on that, save the material, prepare G3 with the legacy UV's and then apply the newly saved material?

Rendered with DAZ Studio 4.10.0.123 (nVidia Iray)

Other free software used: GIMP v2.10.14 and Irfanview 4.54

Postwork: used the AltaLux Image Enhancement Filter (Effect) by Stefano Tommesani that comes with Irfanview and some filters (oa) that come with GIMP. Also used mcjDenoise by mcasual. (https://sites.google.com/site/mcasualsdazscripts9/mcjdenoise)

"Wishful thinking..." (Food for thought)

for which figure?

V7 https://www.daz3d.com/victoria-7-extreme-expressions has a few tha could pass and one labeled 'Tired'

G8F https://www.daz3d.com/100-must-have-expressions-for-genesis-8-female-s Quite few for the look you want.

Several others in a similar vein will work as well, you can mix and adjust the dials to get pretty much any look you want (then save the expression for later use if needed).

Also check out Zeddicus's store, several nice poses and expression sets that may have what you need.  https://www.daz3d.com/zeddicuss

Looks like a Victoria 4 skin on a Genesis character. Looks to me like V4 Elite 3D Female Texture: Lana, though the promo images don't show that paricular makeup option. She does have one that looks identical enough to that for me to say it's her, I've used it many times. I can't access deviantart from this computer (work), but if you go on there and search Thyranq there's a few images of her in my gallery with that makeup, just so you can directly compare. Some of them contain artistic nudity, though, so it's NSFW, just so you know.

Daz 4.12, yadda yadda, how do I save custom poses so they are also in Poser format? I want the DAZ format and Poser. Pretty simple question there. Pose Builder for Victoria 4.2 and Michael 4 broke the models arms, causing them to bow and undo didn't / couldn't fix what happend so the pose file is obviously not going to work either (right?).

https://www.daz3d.com/poser-format-exporter-pfe will export Poser-format poses, thugh I'm not sure how that will help if you re working in DS - a Pose preset should work in DS

I think I'm originally familiar with the 3DStudio? The Non-LRay stuff. I'm stuck home again and started to fiddle aorund with DAZ and get serious about making my own custom poses annnnnd... I'm looking at upgrading to the new age of G3 and G8. From V4.2. I know, old.

I assume you mean 3Delight and Iray (that's an upper case i, not a lower case L), the two render engines.

So, my first HUGE new problem is my main hurdle:

The Surface editor tab. Great Caesar's ghost WTH happened to that tab? I used to work with Diffuse Color/Strength, Glossiness, Specular Color/strength, Ambient Color/Strength, and Opacity. SPECIFICALLY Opacity as this would allow me to "cut" clothes, ground, even some walls. The modifications I could do with a body suit were nigh-limitless. The NEW, I'm guessing LRAY, version of Surface Editor Tab is a nightmare brought forth to this material plane. I can't find anything in there that allows me to edit, modify, color, or do anything. There appear to be well over a hundred options hidden in drop down menu after drop down menu and I just have no idea what's going on there anymore. Can I please be pointed to a post / (Free) tutorial that tells me how to use my updated DAZ3D? Without somehow being able to interpret this new surface editor fully 90% of my DAZ experience is out the window.

Thanks in advance!

You can stil use the old Daz Defaukt Shader, for 3Delight, and DS will convert to Iray at render time if you are using Iray. Newly created primtives/imported models will get the default shader for the current render engine, set in the Edit or Advanced tabs of the Render Settings pane. With the Iray Uber Base you want Cutout Opacity to hide things, though as with 3Delight you will also have to block any refraction/glossiness (usually by applying the opacity map to the relevant Strength proeprty if it is non-zero).

There was a movie I saw once that used Victoria 3 or Victoria 4, for some animations..

Can't even begin to describe how utterly confusing this is for a (brand) newcomer to DAZ. It is beyond incomprensible how you're supposed to know configurations and what is compatible with what. 

Case in point: I got a bunch of free shapes/materials yesterday (Candace) that was built on Stephanie 5 base - and I read that Stephanie five was compatible with Genesis base, but then I now read in here that Stephanie 5 was created from Michael?!?!?! WTF.

So I load in the Base Gen character (thinking to myself: Ok, so it says Stephanie 5 is compatible on Genesis - cool, this should work then!) and try applying the Candace head shape and skin, but it maps totally wrong. So I go into change the UV Set and I'm given the options of either Victoria 4, Michael 4, The Kids 4, Gen male, and Gen female. I try ALL of them, nothing works.

So now what? Do I indeed need to actually purchase Stephanie 5? Why doesn't Genesis Female base work????? It is CRAZY that you need endless multiple base characters in order for anything to happen, complete mine field and my entire experience of DAZ so far has been one of endless hours trawling through the shop and reading/watching tutorials instead of diving into it - the software is not difficult at all, but the compatability of characters/surfaces/textures (endless list) is just staggeringly frustrating.  

Sorry (not sorry!) to vent, but I just want to throw my laptop out of the window right now. 

I just heard back from lilflame! Apparently it's RY Caprice for the texture - now I'm off to spin some morph dials and try to replicate the shape.
