I wonder if this product offers a solution to get V4 / M4 morphs straight to G8?

https://www.daz3d.com/sy-victoria-4-and-michael-4-clones-for-genesis-8

For my understanding the autofit clones can be used as morph shapes. This will turn a G8 figure into V4 / M5 shape right?

No ,the clones for auto fit don't change G8 shape they are more behind the scene things,that allow/help auto fit to fit the generation 4 clothing to Genesis8,but it is not a shape morph for Genesis 8

Does anyone here know if Beavis and Butthead (the characters themselves) morphs exist for Michael 4 or any of the Genesis models? I'd like to do some fan animation to my Beavis and Butthead impressions, but I find DAZ Studio faster and higher quality to do animation in than trying to do 2D animation. Thanks in advance for any answers on the subject!

Well, since no one had an answer, I've taken matters into my own hands, and used morphs (and edited surfaces in the eyes and armani hair that comes with G8M) to make Butt-Head using G8M base figure. I've even just made Beavis, and edited this post to add him. If anyone knows how I can share the character preset (and wants to use this), let me know how to properly do so.

WOW...huh huh...He made us...huh huh ...cool!...................Shut up Bevis!

Hello,

 I've been using legacy uvs for my genesis but for some reason I want to change the eyes of genesis 3 to different texture from genesis 3 material but it won't let me change it all! It still have the same eye texture from m4 texture. How can I remove the michael 4 eye texture so I can use my regular genesis 3 eye texture? Please help asap.

Are Michael 4 and Victoria 4 hair converters planned?

That is still up in the air.  Since I started with Daz way after M4/V4, I don't have a lot of those hair items.  It will be up to how well the converters keep selling and to Sickleyield.

Thanks, I'll wait

An V4/M4 hair converter is something I would get.

That is good to know.  Thanks.

In general, again, Bodyhair Project 456 doesn't support genitals, it was originally made for Michael 4 and he has no geografted gens, his gens were parented, not connected to the main figure. 

When working with G2M, the genitals have two material zones, Genitalia and Hips - therefore also the shell has them. "Hips" has the same UV as the hip on the main figure's shell, that makes the seam area a bit smaller, but you can't get rid of the seams completely. Painted on pubic hair on the skin texture as well as an additional fibermesh pubic hair prop helps to cover that area. If it all doesn't help, some postwork in Photoshop is required.

But beside all this I always would suggest trying out Genesis 3 or Genesis 8 Male with Project 78.

I only came across Daz in the Summer of 2016 (ah, those heady carefree days). I had been playing about with Makehuman, and I think I was looking for an alternative to MMD, XNA, something that would actually run on Wine.

I didn't buy anything until December 2016 though, and I think it was probably Michael 6 Pro bundle or a Michael 4 bundle, I think I bought rather a lot the following three months.

And the Buddhist possessions thing was going so well the preceeding few years too....

.....digital stuff doesn't count, right?

I am very interested!  Can you upload it for us please? 

Hi, I'm looking information about this but I did not find anything.

What I want is to manually reduce the number of Genesis polygons (decimator is not a valid option). So what I want is to import the Genesis model from DAZ to blender and then reduce the polygons.

But I want to reduce the polygons, import the new model to DAZ and then be able to use all Genesis morphs in that custom model with reduced polygons. And if I then buy licenses like Genesis Evolution Bundle, Michael 4-5 or anyone who uses Genesis as a base, I can use those morphs in my custom model.

In short, I want to establish a Genesis custom model with fewer polygons as a base model Genesis.

It's possible?

Does "aniMate2 Leisure Time Bundle for M4" works for Michael 4 only or can it be applied to other type of figures?

thanks

Oh hey, they changed up Fast Grab. Look at Hinkypunk's John Crow!  You can GenX him and move him up a few generations. Lenora has some really freaky material options, and dialing her in to other figures may be fun too.  HP Rowan has really interesting face materials with the white under her eyes and the dark nose and upper lip. Creative!

Not sure if this will help, but,

Make sure you have Michael 4 selected. Look under the scene tab to make sure he is selected, not just the head. (highlighted in yellow).I have had this problem and it usually works for me.  My scene tab is on the right of the screen.

Hi Daz 3D users - I would like someone to point me in the right direction to some documentation or tutorial that can set me on the right path. This software was way more advanced than I anticipated and I'm pretty fluent in Photoshop, Maya, Zbrush, Unity and Blender so I didn't expect the steep difficulty curve for this program.

I just purchased

https://www.daz3d.com/army-general-uniform-bundle

Along with 

https://www.daz3d.com/michael-4-complete

I've gotten the Michael body to load in my scene but whenever I try to to double click or drag any piece of clothing from the army general uniform bundle I get a "This action requires an item in the scene to be selected" to which I try selecting Michaels Head (to equip a hat) but it does nothing.

All if not all video tutorials lead to dead urls on Daz's own webpage, the search function does nothing (?) in the program, and adding files to the program seems very convuluted? How are you supposed to use this program?

Any help?

Thanks in advance,

Best,

O

No, you need the pro Bundle for the character from Daz itself - e.g. https://www.daz3d.com/michael-8-pro-bundle for the Genesis 8 Male set or https://www.daz3d.com/victoria-8-pro-bundle for Genesis 8 Female . For the pre-Genesis figures Michael 4's anatomical elements are in the Body Morphs, Victoria 4 doesn't have any (just a genital crease morph in the Body Morphs set). I'm not sur what you mean by the $50 license - the Interactive License is required if you are making a game (or other software) that needs to include actual 3D data, not just 2D renders (still images or animations).
