  • Keep Calm : There's always another Sale (Daily Sale Talk)

    I just applied it to Scott 6... and yeah... wow. When I first bought it, I was kinda "meh, this seems like another one of those things that isn't going to be very useful." I was wrong. 
    I wish Headshop Oneclick was as much of a pleasant surprise.

  • Llynara's Loony Bin (WIP Thread)

    I just wiped myself out on the utilities sale. I hadn't spent much at all so far, but today wiped out my Gift Card. 
    Headshop Oneclick, NGS anagenessis 2, Brow Remover, Hand Knights, Filghty Dirty IRay Shaders, Carrara Modelling Tutorials and the big one, Hexagon Revisted, for $54... 
    And earlier today the Genesis Starter Kit and Classic Bikini kit, which are both Hexagon tutorials, for $8.38. 
    I think it is time to stop building and start learning how to make more than plank benches. :)

  • Duplicate Formulas Found error...How do I get rid of it?

    I originally installed G3F via connect, but had issues with Headshop, so reinstalled her and other via DIM.  No problems until the recent Daz Studio update.  Now when I load G3F from the DIM install, I get a "Duplicate formulas fond in files.  Make sure that the content is properly installed.  See the log file for more details." error.

    This error doesn't seem to affect anything.  I can hit "ok" and G3F still loads fine.  I'd just like to get rid of the annoyance.

    Also, where is the log file they mention?

    Thanks for any help!

  • HairGen, no really a HairGen...

    Headshop looks like a beast to be honest.

    If they update this for Genesis 3 etc....

    The hair seems limited toa  few styles and I can't find anything about textures...

    Looking for rendered images to see what the hair looks like at the end....

    Or maybe it has to be "finished" in another program and that's it.

    There seems to only be 1 video for this....

  • Facegen now on sale...get it!

    the advantage headshop has over facegen is those extra markers but ffacegen is easier and I like the results have a pretty results for new textures don't have to do many touchups both have their pros and cons can't say about the latest hs oneclick didn't get it though it'll be interesting to see what the next version does to compete with facegen which I prefer

     

    actually if the next version of either program allowed the import of textures of say a cat so you could do a cat human as well as morphs now that would be cool

    That's exactly what I tried, but FG rejected it, said it couldn't analyze the photo....

  • Keep Calm : There's always another Sale (Daily Sale Talk)

    @Llynara and @Wonderland - exactly the same sentiment for me. I resisted FaceGen. Too steep of a price. I tried the demo out, it is cool. I wonder if it is really worth that much more than Headshop OneClick for what seems to be similar function. 
    But I'll have to wait until the novelty wears off and it comes down to around $19 or less, which I assume may happen some day... maybe when Genesis 4 comes out. :) 
    But every... other... thing... you said... *exactly*. They're are a couple Pro 7 packs I'd still like to add, if the price was super cheap.... and a few characters I don't have that are in my wishlist. Part of the problem is that when characters I didn't necessarily want, like Bethany, came out at rock bottom prices, I snapped them up with the idea that hair and clothes packages were auto-conforming... but in the process, it became very hard to justify the prices for Pro Packs I do want that rarely or never see steep discounts. 
    In the meantime, I'm getting to the point where the 256GB SD on my Surface Pro has over 200GB dedicated to DAZ. It is making me a much more discriminating buyer, all things considered. 

    @donovancolbert Can you render on a Surface Pro??? Can you get IRay on it?

  • Facegen now on sale...get it!

    No pictures to demonstrate, but I seem to get better results positioning the eye markers below the pupil and above the outer rim of the iris than when I place the eye markers directly on the iris, at least when the picture shows someone with squinty/droopy eyes.

    I often do the same.  Sometimes the iris is unusable and I have to swap out eye textures in order to match where it should go on the eye.  The point placement is asking more for where the pupil would be on an ideal image.  That said, sometimes it just works.  If a photo is not working, it is often better just to try a different one. 

    It's really too bad there is no way to make small refinements. I have had some great results, but also some ALMOST great results that were spoiled by small innaccuracies that could be easily fixed if only I could give the program more info. For instance, the app often misjudges where the lips part, so the resulting texture has a line through the bottom or lower lip. Same goes for nostrils and the often states eye issues. If I could simply give the app a little more info (and option for more reference points) this could be alleviated I feel.

    Agreed, a separate, texture matching screen would be nice to refine where the texture should match up on the model.  This is one area that I did really like in Headshop.  You can use the Auto Point feature to pull the points as needed to match the skin and see the result before exporting.

    In Facegen, for lips, you're better off being just slightly under the lip line in most cases.  However this varies according to how hi resolution your original photo is.  The higher the resolution, the more accurate the point placement can be.

  • FaceGen vs HeadShop OneClick

    thanks Astracadia didn't get them 100% accurate but still like the results need to play with morphs more I've used my half brother/sister (we had same father different mother) few times now in various renders using headshop as we as photo manipulatations but I like the results of facegen don't have to edit the textures afterwards getting black lines out of the maps and it creates body skin textures

    done a few different versions of them using faceshop so here's my first go of recreating my brother and sister with facegen

    http://www.daz3d.com/gallery/#images/311666

     

    Howdey From Johnny And Melissa

    They make great characters! Your sister kind of reminds me of Katee Sackhoff from Battlestar Galactica!

    thank you yeah I think they do make good charcters done a few renders using headshop and photomanipulations of them now haven't quite got them 100% correct especially in the shaping but still happy with the results and that's the main thing to me using facegen for new textures just like we do with bought stuff we mix and match differnt textures on different shapes for endless characters of course sometimes you do want to actually recreate the actual person and this one is pretty close and again in headshop I have recreated a few friends and my mother in a few renders  but with facegen don't have to edit out black lines and other stuff like I did with the other plus you can create matching full body skin tone with facegen hs is still good but I like fg more. You know I didn't notice that she looked like Kattee here so had to look up some pics to compare and your right she does though in real life don't think she does like said didn't get her 100% accurate here or John either but I still like the results

  • FaceGen vs HeadShop OneClick

    I've always considered (my opinion) HeadShop to be a poor product.

    I was sceptical about FaceGen at first, but ended up buying the pro version.

  • FaceGen vs HeadShop OneClick

    HeadShop suffers from some serious problem, i.e. in regards where your TEMP render files are located, which basically make the product impractical to use.

    FaceGen doesn't have these problems (at least not the test vrsion), so I think that will be where I'm heading.

    I highly recommend downloading the newest version of the FaceGen Artist demo. :)

    Thanks for the link Diva, made me decide to play around with it. From a couple hours of play, it seems that it really comes down to quality source material if recreating an actual person. I wonder how many more features the pro version has over the demo if any? I do love that it creates textures for the whole model that match the face, something headshop does not do.  I'll play with it some more to see if I want to invest in the pro version. here is one of my examples

    FaceGen no scope headshots HeadShop from across the map!

    So, no, they aren't even close, don't even think about it.

    I picked up the demo a few weeks ago and have monkeyed with it a little but not much really. Since it's on sale now for way cheaper than I was looking at, I decided to dust off the demo and see if I could get anything decent with it.  I came up with this, not exacltly a point-and-click operation, I had to do some decent tweaking to get it right. For example, it had a bit of a pin-head and so I had to use a d-former to widen the top of the head so it was proportionate. But I got something decent, much better (for me) than HeadShop was here, which was so broken (for me) that I had to return it.  If this is still on sale tomorrow, I may break down and do it, time to sleep on it.

    Now, off to find one of those Marilyn Monroe characters I have in my archive, finally have someone for her to hang out with!

    Excellent JFK.

    Is that JFK?

    Yes it is.  The morph and texture were actually based on an artists rendering of what JFK would look like if he lived into his 60s. It had the benefit of being a straight ahead shot, perfect for FeceGen, the bad part was the texture was aged looking. I had to get rid of lots of textured in wrinkles and the like but it gave me a good base to work from.  Got lucky finding that artists concept though.

    Very cool. :) I like the idea of using it to do political figures. Sounds like it could make for some fun political art.

  • FaceGen vs HeadShop OneClick

    I own both FG and HS10.  FG all the way.  I have worked extensively with both programs.  I have not used 1Click.  But, considering how many crashes I've had using HS9 and 10, I wasn't all that excited to spend more money for another version of the same software.

    FG doesn't crash.  HS10 crashes frequently

    FG has tweak dials within the program to fix shapes before export.

    FG exports a full body texture set along with the face shape.  HS10 does not.

    I have had success in creating characters with both programs.  But, after spending all that money on Headshop and it's upgrades, I stilll opted to purchase Facegen Home version, then immediately upgraded to Pro.  It was well worth it just to alleviate all the headaches of using Headshop.  I wanted to love Headshop.  The idea of it is great.  I could just never get a good character without a lot of crashes, restarts, and really screwed up meshes.  With FG, I get a usable character with minimal trial and error.  And, a crash is a very rare thing that usually only happens if there is an issue with the reference photo.
