Is there ever going to be a version 9 (and beyond) or has Daz pretty much stopped developing Carraraall together? It would appear they have.

my internet is faster than yours lol

So I guess that since a new version of Carrara hasn't been released in over four years Daz will have to cull themselves and sell it somewhere else 

are you trying to defy logic :)

Carrara be their best selling software

if you google daz Carrara you get

Thanks, @Linwelly.  I get that it isn't for everyone.  I'm not even sure why I like that type of character makeup, but I do.  :)

Thank you, @Algovincian.  It took a little bit to find a shader that was just right for that gem so I'm glad it worked out and someone noticed.  Trying to match her eyes was intentional.  I loved the necklace as soon as I saw it, but it only had 3DL shaders as it's an older necklace for G2F from the Clara Collection.  It fits on G8F pretty well with autofit.  I actually ended up borrowing the shader from a different jewelry set that had a lot of great shader options for its jewelry.  That shader is from Day Dream Cuffs which is an earpiece that's really cute.  I keep meaning to do a piece to show them off, but I haven't quite figured out what I want to do with them yet.  It has a ton of gemstone shaders for Iray in it, though, and is actually worth the price for that alone.  I also used Mec4D's PBS Shaders volume 2 for the metal.  I think everyone should have Mec4D shaders in their arsenal.  I use them all of the time.

In general yes - there's one item, the Anne Marie Goddard Digiital Clone for Victoria 3, that has some extra restrictions but as far as I am aware you can use 2D renders, still or animated, of other items commercially.

I don't know the specifics of Dart, and I'm not a PA.  Despite that, I can report that this is not just a Carrara support issue.  Another Daz PA who made content for Studio also had her store dropped this month.  She had several threads in the Art Studio forum that promoted the use of Daz products.

 

Yeah I saw a thread on that in the Commons, and felt really badly for her, sounded like Daz treated her very unprofessionally, even though she was a big cheerleader for them.  I have no idea what the upside for Daz is in doing this.  "We've got to clear out our inventory to make space for the 2017 models" just sounds ridiculous to me in regards to digital content that they have to keep on file for downloading for anyone who bought the products before they were taken out of the store.  And there's Victoria 1 and 2 stuff still in the store, for pete's sake (I still buy V3/M3 content regularly, just as an aside, so it's not like just because a product is old it's not useful and could theoretically pick up a few new sales in future).

Just noticed the Inagoni store appears to be gone as well.  Good thing I just bought the 'Advance Pack' in the sale (I noted how many people mentioned that Baker is an awesome plugin to have, so I wanted to get it).

Dartenbeck, Inagoni and other PA stores gone?  I wondered why my wishlists were suddenly smaller.  Sure wish that DAZ would at least give us a warning and have a last sale, that would seem to be a win-win approach.  I think Inagoni has his own store out there somewhere.

Thanks, Totte and barbult.  As I mentioned, this one kind of took on a life of its own.  (It was that damn 'Mandy' character for V3, which planted that god-awful, treacly Barry Manilow tune in my head for two whole days, and then a Facebook post by Mark Steyn about that old Bertie Higgins song, Key Largo, with a hurricane tie-in, got that one lodged in my brain for another two days...!  Geez, I'm surprised I'm still sane!  Oh, wait....)

And now it's time for the next one: pull #3.

2658 - i13 100 Essential Expressions for Victoria 7
3569 - Hayden for Young Teen
5517 - Dress Code Violation Outfit
596 - Genesis 3 Male(s) Expressions and Face AniBlocks

Hmm, so all I have to do is have Mike and Vicky sit there, mugging the camera, and we're good?  Works for me...!

And it's on to Round II!

The pull (using the traditional method this time, referencing my spreadsheet):

6705 - I13 Steakhouse Environment
6677 - Detective Bundle
4384 - Mandy (!?)
172 - Quickening Decay for Parkside Head Interior

And if you think I'm going to call this an improvement..., you are mistaken.

Also used:
Orestes Iray HDRI Skydomes Vol 2 - Dreadful Clouds
Iray Ghost Light Kit by Kindred Arts (and a great-big 'Two-Thumbs-Up!', both for the product, and for the help Kindred Arts provided in getting it to work!  So I guess that would be four thumbs, right?)
Kozaburo Short Hair Evolution for Victoria 3 (From before you were born, remember, kids?)
Italian Boots for Victoria 3
DressCoat Italia for Victoria 3
Elliot for Genesis 3 Male
Mathew Hair
Leather Style Outfit for Genesis 3 Male
Classic Casual for Genesis 3 Male
Carrie for Genesis 3 Female
Flirty Hair
I13 Steakhouse Server outfit for Genesis 3 Female

Compositing and postwork in GIMP 2.8

And now for the liner notes.  Three items:
1) Every so often, I need a not-so-subtle reminder of just how much of a pain in the never-mind-precisely-where Victoria 3 was to work with, compared to her more recent incarnations; karma tends to be really diligent and conscientious in that regard.  Apparently, this pull was one of those reminders;

2) I may have played a bit "fast-and-loose" with the Steakhouse Environment: I used just enough furniture to make it identifiable, and one of the server poses; I also threw in the Steakhouse Server outfit (it was, after all, part of the bundle).  I just hope it's a pardonable sin;

3) And finally, I am always reluctant to play the "mawkish sentimentality" card in my RRRR renders (I've only done it once before, as I recall), but this one just didn't seem to want to go in any other direction.  So I let it.  I certainly don't expect it to get any votes for 'Funniest'.  (And if it does, well..., you people are just..., sick!)

Anyway, for what it's worth....

I'm waiting to use my Victoria 4 / Michael 4 content on Genesis 8.  I would also love an autofit between G8F and G8M.

Those lovely morphing eyebrows are only for G8F and I would love to use them on G8M.  Of course, I would purchase morphs for G8M's eyebrows if someone is willing to make them.

There will be a male Super Natural Brows along soon, with more masculine styles. 

As to the wear them all, I don't know if that's in the works, but in the meantime, you could make your own V4/M4 clones. If you have them for Genesis 3, I expect you could transfer them using Singular Blues morph transfer script. 

REDZ! You are awesome. Please make some super-bushy eyebrows for guys. :)

And at least one that isn't straight, please.

Transfer Utility is for weight-mapped figures, not parametric figures like Victoria 4 - that's the problem with starting a new thread, when replying we didn't have the context from your previous threads. For a parametric figure, in DS or Poser, you do need the OBJ grouped.

Hi @ jonsea31gsn_008b1b42a1

I see you getting closer now with the Trasfer Utility but the Source should be "Victoria 4.2" and the Target should be "Daphne Dress_OBJ3".

Try it the other way around and you should see that the Weight Maps option is no longer been greyed out.

With Trasfer Utility you don't transfer the dress to the figure but the morphs (all shaping options of the figure) and weightmaps (how the figure bends) to the dress.

For more details see Basic Rigging with the Transfer Utility.

Under General Options I would only select "Weight Maps", "Face Groups" (only if you didn't found a way to create them by your own by now) and "Morph Targets" (there are extended options that are self-explanatory I hope).

Keep in mind the dress should allready fit the shape of the figure the ideal would be skintight so you get better results with Trasfer Utility.

Zeppelin & Wyvern

Clean lines.  Creative background.  Very nice.

Rather than ask, I'll assume that you are using a filter(s) that I don't own yet.

 

Thanks UB

Carrara render postworked with Topaz Adjust for colour correction, Fotosketcher Oil Painting 6 filter as base, Filter Forge Old Book Illustrator filter overlaid at 40 % transperancy, and finally Rons Vintage Backgrounds https://www.daz3d.com/ron-s-vintage-backgrounds-and-overlays at 50% transparency but multiplied instead of overlaid.

Much appreciated!  But I really need to stop asking.  I only hope that you are logging in your settings somewhere.  Interesting styles that you are developing.

Helen for Victoria 4 on Genesis 8:

1. Load V4 clothing to G1

2. Save as a Wearable Preset

3. Load the Wearable Preset to G8

I think the Transfer Utility is a nice idea.  But I do have one problem: the scene item is supposed to be Daphne Dress_OBJ3, but the target item is supposed to have Victoria 4.2 as an option.  Instead it has the same dress or none as options.  Also, the Weight Maps check box is disabled.

What would I have to do in order to choose the target item as Victoria 4.2?  What items should I select as displayed in this image?

one-click solution that allows you to quickly add a racy, lacy bodysuit to any of your favorite Genesis 3 Female or Victoria 7 characters

The "requirement" description is often not to be trusted, for some reason it is often wrong.

 

Understood.  Nonetheless, the new version is not a repaired version i.e... something didn't work properly and is now patched; it is a version with a new functionality i.e. iRay.  You have the product already and sound happy enough that you use it.  It is reasonable to ask you to pay for added functionality since you are already getting value from the product.  It is not defective.  In your analogy, Adobe Photoshop or other software don't charge for changes within a single version (going from version 5.1 to 5.3 which patch functionality) but do charge from going from 5.0 to 6.0 when new features are added.  Moreover, you have the option of converting the existing product you have to iRay which is patient/tedious but technically easy to do if you have the time and don't want to spend the money.  If the autoconversion when you render isn't too odious, that is what I would do.  I have been shopping here from before Michael and Victoria 10 in the days of Posette and if they produced a version of Michael or Victoria 1 that had uptodate dual lobe iRay textures, I would expect to pay for it because I have had decades of ownership and use of the product.  I do understand you are not asking for a free product but the vendor has sold you an honest product that isn't broken.

My whole point is that the only change is an iray shader update, so it is unreasonable to pay for this item a second time when either a free update or a discounted price is a viable option. As we all know the way some items are UV mapped trying to convert shaders can be a dificult or for some near insurmountable process. Not everyone has the same level of experiance.

 

They could do what Jack Tomlin does, and release it as an iray upgrade for a few bucks. Seems to work for him.

I wouldn't be opposed to a deal like that, I just don't want to pay for this item a second time for just an upgrade in shaders. 

I believe I may have found why the INJ files aren't working. Comparing my INJ files with those of a purchased character, the Deltas are missing in my file.

Mine looks like this:
// --- Delta Includes ---
    // FBMDefinition is undefined
    // PBMNeckThickness is undefined

etc etc

Whereas the .pz2 file that I'm comparing it with looks like this:

// --- Delta Includes ---
    readScript ":Runtime:libraries:!DAZ:Victoria 4:Deltas:Morphs++:InjDeltas.PHMFaceHeart.pz2"
    readScript ":Runtime:libraries:!DAZ:Victoria 4:Deltas:Morphs++:InjDeltas.PHMFaceLong.pz2"

etc etc

Why? Why does mine not recognise the Deltas when I have followed the PDF tutorial I have for adding V4 and M4 to the INJection Pose Builder library? Do I have to manually add the address of the Deltas?
