  • Strand Hair Oddnesseses
    1. To save money, I dust off the old Zygote bear and start with that.  Then I create a new hair object and fit it to her.
    2. The hair editor opens and there's the bear rotated to some oddball angle.  I didn't rotate anything.

    Weird, I have created SBH on countless figures and clothing, and it has never changed the rotation in the SBH Editor viewer or viewport for me.

    The SBH Editor viewer should reflect the rotation and morph of the figure at the time that you create the SBH item.  Even if you re-pose/remorph the figure, opening the SBH Editor will show you the view of the figure at the time that SBH was created.  And you should have free-reign to morph/pose the figure after creating the SBH.

    it might be something weird with that figure?

    1. When I exit the editor, she's still rotated, and I can't unrotate her.  The controls aren't locked, but the sliders and the typed inputs and the rotate widget all do nothing.  Until I delete the hair object, she's stuck like that.  I have to juggle three axis rotates of the hip node to level her out or reorient her.  What's up with that?
       

    That said, it would be interesting to see how your Scene tab was set up, maybe you had weird parenting relationships?  (It was unclear from your screenshots)

    1. So I ignore that for the moment and proceed with the hair, giving it a salted golden-ish color.
    2. When I finish, the hair ain't golden, even after I reassign the dual-lobe shader and return to the hair editor to confirm the color-picker.  I can change the transmission color and the highlight color and the glossy, but the hair itself stays black-hole black no matter what I change.  Is it supposed to do that?

    The color in the SBH Editor itself should just be ignored, imo.  if you can figure out what the purpose of this is, let me know.  I think this is just a holdover from when the SBH Editor was Garibaldi and had a 3DLite Shader, but i could be completely wrong.

    SBH Editor should just be used for creating geometry, imo, and then adjustment to hair colours should be done in Daz Studio surface tabs.  

     I just use these hair presets (https://www.daz3d.com/real-hair-shaders-for-dforce-and-strand-based-hairs) for dual lobe shader from the Daz Store.

    1. I decide to settle for a black bear and feel grateful that at least it's not green.  I also update the figure to iRay Uber surfaces and color them to match the fur.  I add two D-formers for closing the eyes, pose a scene with a second figure and add a camera.
    2. I want more than one pose combination with the two figures, so I set the poses as keyframes and advance the timeline.  When I finish posing, I save it all one more time and shut down.
    3. When I open the file next time, something's missing.  Where is the camera in my timeline?  Where are the D-formers?  I can see that all visibility flags are active, so what's going on?  Sometimes keyMate and graphMate can show me channels that have vanished from the primary timeline, but not always.  The animation tools are failing me again, and I'm not even animating.  What gives?
       

    I will leave someone else to answer such questions as these are animation related.

  • how to have a nose look like its inhaling?

    Have you looked at yourself in a mirror?

    I, at least, have only a very suttle movement when inhaling.

    If you are using FACS you can slighty raise the nose/nostrils.

    Or if you want to exaggerate it, you could push the nostrils to the side, with mesh-grabber, d-former or a dedicated morph.

  • Using morphs for rotation in DAZ

    I'm not about to start creating joints in the Genesis figures. Make the morph, make the controller. Seemed pretty simple to me - maybe I'm missing the point of what you're all finding so difficult. Try as I might, this foot did not deform into an ugly explosion of polygon goo.

    @Gordig, Jun-fan has two skin material, and a Human and a Warlock Head to apply. 

    Yes, but all the promos show the morph as exceptionally - dare I say superhumanly - veiny and with almost Liefeldian musculature. JunJi is a realistic human character that can be made into a vampire, where JunFan looks like a vampire character that can be made slightly more human.

    3D Art Freebie Challenge June-July 2022 "The secret life of ..."

     

    Here's my first entry for this month, not sure if there's enough time for a second. So many ideas, so little time...

    "(The secret life of ...) Masataka and Walther"


    [Best watched at full size for details.]

    Starring: Masataka and Walther

    The tale: (Entirely fictional)

    None of Walther's friends, acquaintances, or co-workers know that he's a ventriloquist, not even his girlfriend, because he's afraid they won't think he's so cool anymore. He practices when she is not at home and every now and then he performs in small venues, while, because he has been a ventriloquist since childhood, he is very good and could perform well in very large venues.

    Masataka: "Can you believe this guy? You all know he locks me up in that filthy old suitcase? Well he does! And I wasn't allowed to tell anyone about it, but I do it anyway 'cause he can't stop me from doing that! I am not a child anymore, what is he thinking! I think it's time to start living on my own..."

    Walther is both amazed and stunned, how is it possible that Masataka can speak on his own?

    Jin-ju HD for G8.1F                    LI Incandescent - Portrait Lighting         3-in1 Low Ponytail Hair for G8F       dForce Maho Outfit for G8.1F

    I really like the skin of this character.  To me it looks very realistic.  I don't really care to much about the morphs but i thought I would do at least one render with the original morphs/skin.  There is nothing wrong with the morph its just not the type of renders I do, although who's to say that I won't use it in the future.  This is a straight out of the box render.  No adjustments at all.  My only complaint with this is she seems to be a little bit oily with these lights.

  • Strand-based hair - need testers

    I think I was wrong about the strand-based hair parenting problem being fixed in 4.20. I think I was simply lucky once. Today it fails for me again if I parent the strand-based hair to the scalp, save the hair, and reload it.

    This is what does seem to work for me:

    • Create a scalp geometry and use transfer utility to rig it to G8F, or use an existing rigged scalp
    • Fit the scalp to G8F but do not parent the scalp to G8F
    • Create the strand-based hair elements fit to the scalp
    • Do not parent the strand based hair elements to the scalp
    • Create a new group with the scalp and strand-based hair elements parented to the new group
    • Select G8F (nothing is parented to her)
    • File/Save as/Wearable Preset and select the new group as the thing to save

    With this method, I can load the saved wearable preset on any morphed G8F and it will follow the morphs. Fit may not be exactly perfect, just like any other autofollow scalp doesn't follow perfectly. I generally add morphs to my scalps to adjust forehead depth, etc. Sometimes I even create FHMs for extreme shapes.

    Oops, I didn't mean to name my scalp "scalp scalp" but it doesn't matter what the name is.

  • Is there a tutorial on changing the face by sculpting?

    Question:
    It seems after importing to blender,
    If I seperated the eyeballs in order to sculpt the face and then rejoin the eyeballs, it makes this kind of problem to the morph.

    Is this correct, no geometry is allowed to be separated and rejoined?
     

    Correct, as that will change vertex order.

    I will suggest to hide the items, you don't want to change.

  • Import Morphs?

    So, I found a guy on DeviantArt doing Celebrity Morphs for DAZ.  I downloaded a few and drag-and-dropped them into the DAZ Library.  They seem to go to Data>Daz 3D>Genesis 8>Male>Morphs>Magnus1781
    However, when loading a G8M Base or any other G8M, the morph is nowhere to be found.  Is there some sort of import process I need to follow?  I cannot see it in the Content Library, I can't see it in any of the morph dials under heads, Body, All, etc.  I am stumped.  I have used user-created content before without issue, but I can't seem to figure this one out.

  • Using morphs for rotation in DAZ
    You must create a joint.. Morphs work in linear way. Perfect for translations but very bad for rotations. You must rig your model and if you want use Erc to link joint rotation to a new custom parameter (grouped as a morph).

    Morphs do not rotate. the morph moves a vertex (or multiple vertices) from one coordinate point to another in linear fashion. The vertex moves along a straight line from point A to point B.

  • Using morphs for rotation in DAZ

    I suspect "the" answer is not a one post solution. Likely requires a series of morphs with controllers which include step morph activations along with the pose trigger activations. i.e. a rather complicated procedure which yes, should be doable. It is one thing to know how to do all that, and another to explain it all.

    you migh ask aobb in this thread what, if any, tutorials and tools she has used:

  • Using morphs for rotation in DAZ

    As far as I'm aware it's not possible, I can never seem to get a straight answer from anyone involving a fix for this issue. And yes in a simple sense, just rotating the normal bone would be the answer but what if you wanted to create a not so simple situation?
    For example I made a tip toe morph that properly bends the ankle to look like a natural tip toe pose.
    image
    Looks pretty great right? So now everything's set no need for anymore work... that is... unless you wanted to "animate" this tip toe from a flatter foot...
    wanna see what it looks like at 50 percent?
    image
    Not exactly the picture of beauty anymore is it?
    "So Nec, why don't you just bend the toes then and call it a day, blah blah blah"
    Have you guys seen the regular toe bend in daz?
    image
    Pretty nice, if you're an ALIEN. The toe bends and well a lot of other limb and digit bends in daz leave much to be desired... so yea, there's nothing "practical" about us having to limit ourselves to those bends.
    Also all morphs have been erc freezed, the melting issue in between min and max still occurs because apparently there's no way to make the morph properly rotate on an axis in daz... I could be entirely mistaken and it just isn't common knowledge, which apologies if so. Also don't even get me started on trying to apply this morph to already bent feet...

    A character has a base mesh.

    That can be "morphed" which means that some or all verteces are being moved to a new position. The morph is describing which verteces are moved to where.

    So one base character can have multiple morphs.

    All the genesis characters are base characters, and most other characters (there are some that is stand-alone) are morphs of these base characters.
