...was holding them for the Black Friday/Cyber Monday sales to get the maximum discount I could before my memebrship expires next Saturday.

Im getting fed up with the DAZ+ coupons. I saved mine for the Black Friday sale and now they do not fully apply -- Only getting $3.89 off for the $6 DO one. Grrr!  

And on top of the coupon not working properly when I wanted to use it it appears that DAZ has chosen to not allow its use on Face Transfer 2 by designating it as  a new artist even though it most likely is a DAZ owned product. 

Face Transfer 2 preorder is quite nice - with current discounts, it's more-or-less preorder and get a free Pro bundle, and the selection includes recent releases (up to Amelia 9).
I was able to shape a *very* nice cart, even without the T-day coupon (which I'd already used three times since I wasn't expecting it to run this long).

honestly.. i got me the viking mega bundle + 2 Daz-lightning deal items for ~5$ + 22.x$ for face transfer 2.
While i have to admit, that it was unlikely for me to purchase the viking bundle and/or face transfer, i practically got one of them free.
i think its a good deal.

This is the answer, about how to connect Daz Studio with AI:

https://www.daz3d.com/face-transfer-2

 

For sure, as now you will have to pay to be able to use AI to create art lol

Let's see if it actually works first...

"Learn more about Face Transfer 2 here: LINK TO BLOG"
Links back to the same page. Nice work someone. He He! Gotta proof that code, Yo.

 

I just bought this great little one (along with the base lion, dforce add-on, smilodon, and ensary's wild poses). I may be missing something obvious, yet I'm seeing many of the shaping and pose control morphs are warped or not doing anything. For example: the claws do not protract at all and the lower jaw morph tears the sides of the mouth away from a stationary jaw. Is this expected to happen?

If it's of note, I've only tried this in Daz Studio 4.22 and have no idea if this is a new thing or has always been this way.

The product page does list these morphs as included features, yet the index file list doesn't and my data folders only have them in the base.

Strangely, the eyes actually seem to close better than for the base lion and smilodon shapes which only close 2/3 of the way at 100%.

I'm curious to know if I'm missing some obvious method or if this is an error somewhere or even if this is just how it is meant to (not) function. I love how the little big cat looks, yet I may need to rethink using it as a main character. I was really excited to use those claw morphs for climbing animations.

Thanks for any help!

I have not used FT1 so often, as well,

but I have tried recently Avatar Maker Pro in Unity which I think,

was the base for Face Transfer.

Avatar Maker Pro creates only the head mesh, so it is not that useful for me.

It is explained also on that page:

Purchasing Face Transfer 2 in pre-release means you will get access to the unlimited version in the beta (Public Build) versions,

as well as the General Release version which will be launching in the coming weeks.

 

The whats included says its the trial version thats included - so you might only get that even in beta. Seems a lot to pay for a trial version, trial versions are usually free. And  - 'in coming weeks'  - is this a Daz soon type of thing?

It is a very little information about its launch on

https://www.daz3d.com/2023-daz-holiday-sale

 Face Transfer 2
Pre-Sale
Buy the new Face Transfer 2 and get up $30 of Daz Originals for free.
Supports Genesis 9 and has higher resolution textures than Face Transfer 1.
Full version will launch in December

One of the must have purchases and the fastest purchase decision for me

and I got 4 Daz 3D main Genesis 9 characters for free with my current Holidays Rewards.

 

It is explained also on that page:

Nothing about the write-up of Face Transfer 2 leads me to believe and supports anything other than Genesis 9. It doesn't say that it's an upgrade from the previous version of the software, it only mentions Genesis 9 in the description, and it is tagged for only supporting Genesis 9. I'm taking it at face value for what it says it does and skipping it.

Do be aware that there are intergenerational pose transfer products, both free & paid for. I have created a freebie script that copies the pose from a V4 character & pastes it to a G8F character as well as possible (https://www.daz3d.com/forums/discussion/448391/v4-a4-pose-transfer-to-g8f - at Rendo there have been over 2400 downloads of this script) and there are other freebie scripts and things like Bone Minion by Riversoft.

This may help if you are less than perfect at posing, but it removes the need for practice. It all depends on what you want most, the practice or the poses..

Regards,

Richard

According to the store page it only contains the trial version. Presumably that is a mistake? Also the "Link to Blog" doesn't lead to the intended destination - not that I could see a relevant article on the blog anyway.

Confirmation of its compatibility with G8/G8.1 would also be appreciated. 

still the best textures ever, I used Ultimate Unwrap3D to transfer them to all my later Genesis figures for any anthropomorphic cats

To get the $30 free Daz Originals, use this link: https://www.daz3d.com/transfering-with-daz-originals

Add items up to $30 to your cart along with Face Transfer 2, and they'll show in the cart as $0.

We got a new AI tool from Daz 3D:

https://www.daz3d.com/face-transfer-2

Wow - well spotted, @Artini.  From the product description.  "Face Transfer 2 is an AI-powered system that from a photo transfers face shape, texture, and tone to create a look-a-like 3D version of family members, yourself, really whomever you want! It is compatible with Genesis 9 figures, employs higher-resolution texture maps, refines the image projection process, and improves dynamic geometry adjustments."

Hey guys!
The new Face Transfer 2 tool looks amazing.
Can anyone tell me when the promotion will be fixed?
pre-launch?
Thank you everyone and have a great week! :)

Looks awesome!

Curious, do "life" morph dials work in Houdini? Like various shape-changers for twitching the nose, flaring the nostrils, making a smirk, those sorts of things?

QUOTE: Get up to $30 in Daz Originals for free when you pre-order Face Transfer 2

Anyone know how this works, please? ie, there is no further info or link to products, and I have put the Face Transfer 2 into my basket but can't see anything about the $30 free products...? TIA.  (I also have no clue about the "punch" system. At least with the Tokens it was all very visible.)
