Johngate's WW dress is a pretty rad freebie
>>552554What is this download points BS
>>552561A way to encourage users to upload items instead of being a little leeching bitch. You get 100 points everyday. You get points everytime someone downloads one of your uploads. Also you can upload requests set by others for set amount of points. It's a good thing.
>>552549what is the legal status of lewd questionable age 3d model renders?is only illegal to share it, or you'll get in trouble just by having that stuff on your hard disk?
>>552569Probably depends on your state/country.
Daz is shit, whenever you want to actually make something you need tons of addons and assets and then UI is a cluster fuck
>>552576You can customize it a bunch. I wish the hotkey settings were less ugly. Would like to get a preset for blender hotkeys to navigate the 3d windows.
Tis image could use an update for genesis 3 but compatibility is always asked about.
>>552556not to mention his virgin killer sweater.
>>552576That or, you know, put all that shit-talking to good use and make it yourself.
>>552576The UI is fucking brilliant and customizable.As for needing tonnes of addons and assets to make something...A decent vertex modelling program. A decent sculpt modelling program. That's all you need. Then you make all the assets you want.
>>552626Interface is ugly and un-intuitive at first, just like blender. But I've since moved most of my blender hotkeys to their equivalent here and added all the panels I normally use. It's pretty decent afterall. specially with multiple monitors.
How do you get renders without all the graininess?
>>552634Various ways, here is one:If under Progressive Rendering you set the min and Max samples to 0 and around 12000 it should get rid of the graininess. Also set the max time to about 20000 it usually doesn't take that long to render but it gives it a lot of time to fully render. Also under filtering set Noise degrain Filtering to 2 and noise degrain raidus to 4 or so, then noise degrain blur raidius to 3-5 that should help as well
Thanks for making the thread OP, I'd hate to see these die off from the board, since the previous one was pretty helpful.Now to the topic at hand: Does anyone know if someone made a virgin killer sweater yet?pic related
>>552601>>552706nvm im retarded
>>552706That guy made two actually. They are pretty awesome for freebies
>>552636Thanks, anon. What are the other methods? I'm trying to get decent renders without having to leave the computer chugging for 8+ hours.
>>552726What video card are you using? What resolution are you rendering at? Did you make sure your correct or preferred hardware is selected in render settings > advanced
>>552729GeForce GT 540m. Tried that one trick with "Render at a huge size and then resize it to half in post", so the past few renders have been at 2440x1440. The graphics card, for all it helps, is selected in the "Advanced" tab.

Anyone know how most of the hair for these models are made? What programs? Could i do it in Zbrush? I understand the idea behind it since they all seem to be strips of planes where the hair texture is painted on and the rest of the plane is transparent. Are there any good tutorials specifically for making hair for Daz? Seems that info on actually making stuff for daz is really hard to find.
>>552779I use blender hair particles and the hairmesher addon. If you want to make anime hair bezier curves are easy as hell. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nn7mISvVzJk
>>552775You've convinced me to upgrade
Anyone working on custom morphs right now? Post 'em?Picrelated is not mine but hoping there is some sort of release soon.
This was an acceptable render for a product. Nevermind the morph itself.
>>552836she needs that hair too
>>552747Total Rendering Time: 7 minutes 12.51 seconds with a GTX 770
>>552836It's Natalie Dormer. That's her nose and permanent smirk.
>>552921Indeed, saw it in a WIP thread on Daz forums but no updates in forever.
>>552636Uhh, do you use 3Delight ? Isn't everyone using IRAY now ?

Is http://www.daz3d.com/dark-fantasy-add-ons-for-genesis-3-female-s not supposed to work in 4.8? I obtained separate female version and two character bundles, and all of them contain broken geometry on the left wing when loading separately, and crash the program when attempting to apply them to genesis 3 figures.
>>552976possibly, site says: Compatible Software: DAZ Studio 4.9
Is there a discord or something like that for this? Would be an easy way to share stuff.
>>553103I made one but haven't sent out any invites yet. Too afraid of being responsible for file trading and some of you fags uploading loli 3d.
Dazbro, I know you monitor these threads sometimes. You did me a huge solid by getting me that giftcard credit in one of the previous threads for my suggestions.Will there be any sales coming up featuring the Rune Pro bundle? I've had my eye on it for a while but $$$.
There any Nazi-esque outfits for G3F or G3M?I suppose G2 works too since I can just autofit.
>>553318your best bet would be to check vendors oskarsson and powerage.They have produced clothing in that style in the past.
Small question. I am new to DAZ and from what i've seen, if you pose your character, it automatically positions muscles etc instead of bending like usual bone rigs, i assume they do it with morph targets. If i export my DAZ character to say Blender, is it still possible to have the same feature? For example when i pose or animate the character in Blender that the muscles will bend correctly the same way they do in DAZ? Or does DAZ use some script, that the correct muscle bending only works in DAZ when posing?TL;DR, I want to animate a DAZ character in Blender with correct bending and movement.
>>553345pretty sure you'd have to rig it yourself in blender. With all the headache that goes with it.
Kinda like the last question posted but not really...I have a very difficult time posing in Daz, because when I try to move a single limb or body part, everything else tends to spaz out. Like if I move one leg, the other moves to, or if I move the hips both feet move out of position. The best fix I've been able to find is to pin the limb I don't want to move which only works sometimes. Is there a way to pose models like a traditional IK Rig, where only relevant limbs move?
>>553371I'd like to know this as well.Some video guides I've seen just pin the root hip node. Others suggest selecting limb by limb and manually rotating/etc.
>>553377>Others suggest selecting limb by limb and manually rotating/etc.That's how I do it. When you select a bone with universal tool and click posing tab on the right, you can pose it precisely with sliders and numbers.
>>553371Are you saying DAZ uses dynamic / inherited movement but doesn't give you a slider to turn it on and off? Pretty much what I'd expect from that autistic software.
>>553387Turn on IK or turn it off.. I forget
>>553409Where's the option?
>>553371You can by locking nodes in the pose tab. However, you need to lock every node above the child node otherwise only the specific locked node won't move. For instance. If I lock the node for an elbow and then drag the hand the entire torso can still move but the elbow will stay in it's current pose. The elbow can still be moved because of the nodes that are still unlocked further up the chain in the hierarchy. So if you only want to move that specific part of the figure, get in the habit of locking all the necessary nodes to prevent them from being moved.
>>553498that sounds like a ton of effort.i'm not trying to sound whiny or lazy but that is a surprising amount of work to do in order to simply move a limb independently of the other limbs while still using IK.
>>552576DAZ is shit for the mere fact that people who use it are shit and are looking for the easy way out to make money or their shit uncanny valley pregnancy fetish shit. No artistic skill needed.
Is this art?
>>553638No
>>553607That's hardly any work at all. Select all the nodes you want from from the hierarchy and lock them. Pose whatever you want to pose. Then unlock them. That's all there is to it.
>>552549Where can I commission a Josie 6 shape for G3F? Just the head really.
Anyone know if this model is available or has a name? Only seen it for the Raffaela hair. Actually has a unique attractive face and not the typical bimbo look.
>>553638anything that makes my benis go boom is art
>>553638hold on!>slap ridiculously giant penis on itnow it's art!
>>553623thank you for broadening the possibilities anonand here i was thinking i was gonna make some low key deviant shit for myself and you're telling me people will pay me to do this?i'm living the dream baby!making these is easier than using the sliders to make a custom character in a video game. you tellin' me people pay money for this?i've seen people dozens of times mistaking Siberianar's muscle girls as real people. People get tripped out by the realism sometimes. Like on pixiv....If it's good enough for the Japs it's more than good enough for me. It's arguable how much skill it requires. But skill isn't the issue. The fans don't care if you spent 12 hours rendering your perfectly rigged masterpiece. They pretty much just wanna nut.It's just a different tier of art. Like the way people don't consider porn art, but they worship hollywood movies and indies even if they were shit.That's were SFM did right, grouping a bunch of cliques together to make Studio FOW and making repositories.The beauty of 3D for porn is that it is real enough without actually being real and is too new and kinda still considered cartoons. (it's not as focused on as other things)Leaves a lot of room for creativity.
>>553831It suspiciously looks like Marion Cotillard.
>>553873Found it, according to the forumshttp://www.daz3d.com/astrid-for-genesis-3-female
>>553876CUTE
>>553876I swear i looked through this guys page and didn't see it. Says it's just for 4.9...oh well. Not gonna install their snooping shit.
>>553866Just looked up Siberianar's stuff...fuck you...that shit will haunt my dreams for the rest of my life.
>>553876Ok got it and messed around about an hour and made this. Can't figure out what eyes he used for the Raffaela promo.
>>553890Snooping shit? You mean 4.9 has a backdoor that sends information to daz?
>>553905Benisable
>>553903huehuehueyou're welcome
>>553345Its hard. Daz uses a combination of bone movements and morphs, that as far as I know cant' be exported to any program. The best way I've found to do it was through this addon, though it takes some time to get it working perfectly, it suposedly lets you export the morphs as well :>http://diffeomorphic.blogspot.mx/p/daz-importer-version-11.htmlI suppose it's just a matter of rigging the shape keys to the movements by yourself.
>>553944Nice thanks, i'll look into that. Otherwise i had the idea of simply exporting few posed meshes with single limb movements to create my own shape keys for all limbs.I just found out you can export morphs with the FBX export too, though i don't know to what degree it will work.
>>553907People are just tinfoil hat about the option to login being embedded in the smart content pane. A store tab too.
>>553903>Siberianar's>>553934That, is disturbingly accurate IF women could get that big.
Is it worth trying to learn rigging IN Daz? I'd like to be able to sculpt on the models beyond their mesh limits...when i do this and try to send it back to Daz it only lets me make a new object. I know how to send working morphs back, but i want to be able to do major shape changes and do shit like remake the eyeballs etc. What is a simple and or FREE program you can easily rig an .OBJ in? If there is no free program then what's the easiest to use/learn? Maya?
>>553999When you are sculpting, are you adding or removing faces? You would need to work on the mesh at it's base resolution.Though, not sure how the HD morphs work.
So as a hobby I like fucking with photoshop, AE, Ai and all that shit and wanted to pick up 3D art. Downloaded DAZ and watched some tutorials but it just seemed like guys sitting around buying things other people made. Not interested in that. Is there a way to actually create in DAZ? I want to make art not buy and edit it.
>>554109there are basic morphs you can create in app but to do anything substantial you'll be using a third party app like zbrush etc.Even then, there are some basic/common/popular base characters you will need. Most cases its Victoria and body/head morphs.
>>554115Thanks, anon. Unrelated question: I remember playing old fight night games where you could upload front shots and profiles of peoples faces, put "dots" in certain areas and it'd put the face onto a 3D model. Are there any programs or plug-ins for programs that can do this? Outside of those games I've never seen anyone use that software other than game/movie studios.
>>554126I think there may be a couple options. One is Headshop.
>>554128Thanks again, f a m.
ive been messing with daz3d water and i cant seem to get it right. i always get this black gooey when i try to render water shaders, does anybody know how to make this look like water dripping/flowing along skin. this is from splash add-on
>>554198Without seeing the material/shader settings for that water it would be hard to pinpoint. Most likely it's your Refraction Index. If you're new to Daz likely what happened is that you selected the object itself rather than the "surface" of the object. The former is to manipulate the position of the object and the latter is to apply material shaders to it's surface. If you do not select the surface but rather the object then whatever material you tried to apply to it won't work.
>>554000Normally when i make morphs i try NOT to add more polys/faces because if i do the morph won't work. What i'd like to do is take a daz body into Zbrush...up the detail and maybe redo major areas like the eyeballs/fingers/toes/teeth etc and then re-rig it. If i tried to send something like this back into daz it would lose the rigging it had and just be a new .OBJ...I just want to know if it's worth the trouble trying to re-rig it in Daz or does another program make it easier to rig like Maya....or are they generally the same in ass pain about rigging.
>>554198I would suggest studying on how water behaves on surfaces and especially skin before trying to do what i think you're doing. Water doesn't generally create rivers like that on the skin unless there's a rapid source like a shower or something and even then it'll follow a particular pattern of flow and shouldn't be spread out like how you've depicted it. If there is no active flow of water the skin will have a general sheen to it with maybe some drips and drops on the surface and hanging off places on the body and also determined by gravity like the bottom of the boobs, fingertips, chins etc. I'd get a bunch of refs of chicks in showers, bathtubs and the like to get an idea. There's a tutorial on how to make skin look wet...http://thinkdrawart.com/how-to-get-wet-skin-in-irayThe problem with water shaders is that you gotta know how water behaves for it to be convincing. I rendered 2 spheres...the one on the left is the regular water shader, and the one on the right is the Glass Solid Clear shader. I can't tell the fucking difference and i've made pics before with the water shader where it just looked like a giant blob of glass.
How is daz studio for animation? What about with the Graphmate and Keymate addons?If daz studio is trash for animation, as I suspect, what program (other than Blender) should I use for animation of Genesis 3 so I can export the bvh and use it in daz?
>>554242thanks a bunch, you really pointed me on the right direction, still on the experimentation phase of daz>>554268had some experience of digital photography, i tried replicating this from an actual photo of mine, but im not really good with 3d software, i can barely even do 3d cad. i tried that page but cant seem to get the same result
Anyone here has some experience or good tutorials for importing selfmade hair meshes? Should i apply it similar like conform clothing with the transfer utility, automatically being weightpainted and morph adjusted? I barely have worked with hair so far, not even with hair that comes from DAZ, so i don't know much about the topic.
>>554421>Anyone here has some experience or good tutorials for importing selfmade hair meshes?No, but I have read tutorials for how to do it.>Should i apply it similar like conform clothing with the transfer utility, automatically being weightpainted and morph adjusted?Yes, exactly that. Almost all daz studio hair is like that.
>>554421How I handle hair is I fit the hair to the figure I've made it for using the transfer utility and then after that if it's long hair I'll add extra bones to the hair to be able to pose and animate different parts of it and I'll also make some basic morphs for the hair as well.So yeah it's conforming hair but it's rigged to let it pose and animate like dynamic.
>>554126There's two options for Daz. One is Headshop and the other is FaceGen.Headshop works with multiple figures and has Hairshop bundled with it which lets you bash edit different hair meshes (but fucks the hell out of the meshes by converting everything to tris so they won't subdivide and it destroys the UV maps too). FaceGen does a better job of generating the face geometry but it fucks up the eyes completely.
ive been trying out facegen, how come when exported to daz, the face just dont look similar, i think the eyes get changed, how do you correct this, i think the cheekbone and jaw also changes a but
>700mb>for one hairstylehaha, no.
>>554538>he's not even using uncompressed 16k for hair
>>553976 Some of them get very huge. But obviously they use way too many steroids and look way more manly than even most dudes, in the face. They end up having to keep taking steroids to keep the fallout of abuse from happening. Then they either die or turn into disgusting man/woman hybrid and then die. It's super weird. I consider it a body dysmorphia. But as with other things I still consider 3D a form of art and cartoons and I feel it is a guilt free way to enjoy those things. I hear about female body builders dying everyday because their heart was three times too big or they just had a heart attack and died. There's a lot of denial in that culture. I'm pretty sure they're compensating for some super messed up thing they went through. Anyway...Daz is good for fulfilling a lot of strange desires. And easy enough to use. I just wish it were easier to make shoes and jewelry. AND HAIR!I just found out that I could use Marvelous Designer for the clothes. I'm pretty stoked.
>>554646I just wish I could render faster without sacrificing quality or resolution. Would like to do some breast expansion animations but cant bring myself to drop the res lower than 1080.Guess I just need to save up for some 1080s or wait for new titans.
>>553863underrated
>>554673get marmoset toolbag and render that shit in realtime/near realtime
>>554826Good point, suppose I could do the same in Unreal engine too.
>>554826>>554827One problem guys. Genesis 3 uses a HUGE number of joint control morphs (in maya they'd be called corrective shape morphs). You'd need to find decent documentation of what morph is for what if you don't want your figures to deform like crap.
does someone know what's up with http://daz3dfree.com/ ? Its down for me.

>vendor releases some cool new stuff>its still for fucking Victoria 4Why the fuck are these cunts so stock on V4?
>>554949Same, I bought a ton of shit but dont do much outside whatever my dick tells me to do.We should probably try re-creating movie stills with lighting and poses. Ought to be good practice.Because, at it's core. All we are really doing is changing sliders.
>>555012my dude
>>555025>buywell i guess to each their own on how to retrieve content
>>555025you know you can import stuff from zbrush and rhino, right? also you could export the daz stuff to (for example) maya or 3ds or blender and use their plugins and renderers to get different effects. you could even make a game in unreal or use your daz stuff all alone to make a visual novel or point and click game. make a patreon. make something. might as well at least try to make something noteworthy.if you look on the job listings on affect3d it shows a bunch of the programs they use. it's worth looking into. it looks like miro's probably gonna use unreal to make a vr game. probably something like honey select. which would be cool because then our morphs could just be plugged in to it. (or at least that's how i would try to make it)
>>554953nice feet
Fucking Dazfags...
>>555023Hope we get to see some white voodoo priestesses soon then.
>>555025You don't have to just play with sliders. Get a modelling program and start making your own assets. It's more rewarding than fiddling with the sliders on your virtual waifu.

>>555142>hating based 2DCGfor shame anon
>>555238It's not hating 2DCG (which that wasn't). It's hating grotesque 3DCG that tries to pretend it's 2DCG (especially using shitty Genesis based "anime" morphs).
>>555070>>555141in art school my teacher said companies want people highly specialized in one thing only. but i said fuck the production pipeline. i'll do it jodorowsky style. i rather lose money to make something i personally love than make money doing shit i hate.ea and those fucking companies turn you into their personal dream creating machines while stealing a good part of your effort and time.i agree that daz doesn't look unique by itself. but if you add things in or export the models out i think you can make stuff that goes above and beyond in an easier way.i think people put their nose in the air without really giving it a chance. its a character maker. no more no less. some people make amazing looking things.it is possible to take it further though, yes.

>>558835I don't have any younger characters than Josie.
>>558837Spoke too soon, have Tween Julie but thats probably not loli enough for you guys.
Am I just fucked on render times with my 4 year old laptop?
>>558841yyyyup
>>558841you could export everything to obj/etc with plugins and pay for some cloud renderer.
>>558842Shit>>558844Interesting. Will check on that.
What the fuck do blended triax/general maps even do, all that happens is the triax overwhelms the general map
So im in archviz and i have been thinking a while about putting some stuff i have done up on rederosity. Lots and lots of modern interior and exterior areas. I feel like my quality is as good or better than a lot of the stuff up there now, but I was wondering if you guys were gonna buy scenes what kind of modern ones would you like?Asking because right now renderosity is flooded with fantasy style ones. Although I get the desire for these, I know I can do very realistic looking offices, luxury bedrooms/bathrooms etc.What do you think would be more desired?
>>558888ok. realistically i would most likely pay for well done fancy hotel interiors, bedrooms mostly. like the ones in vegas or new york. if someone made that i would likely pay for it.
>>558888>What do you think would be more desired?I'd try to get scenes that have no direct competition first approved/released first. Than these with least competition or if you can beat quality of existing ones by a huge margin.
Which character is this?
>MFW i successfully imported a gun.Posing needs lots of work though.Is it essentially just tweaking a pose then saving it as a variation, per character and items used?
>>559104when i saw the pic before reading your post kiara immediatly came to mind
How can I get V4's breast morphs to apply to this suit? Skin keeps popping through even with smoothing.Seems to happen with most other clothing items I've got for V4.
>>559104That looks like the default Victoria7 with some nose and lip morphs + makeup. Her hair is the brady hair.
is there a way to automate all the installations from the zips with the daz install manager or do i just need to drag and drop them all?
>>559143Copy the morphs from the character to the clothes. There's are tools available that can do this for you or if you can't get a hold of one, there are tutorials online as well that can tell you how to do it.
>>552566>>552554need an invite code?
>>559158I'll look into that, thanks!
>>559154Place installers zips in C:\Users\Public\Documents\DAZ 3D\InstallManager\DownloadsThis only works if they are from DAZ. Some others have though but mostly Daz.I would create a second library per site of origin. For instance: ShareCG, Renderotica, and Renderosity are my libraries.
>right click clothing>transferWow, didn't expect it to be that easy in Daz.Time to become one of the many shitty V4 porn artists!
>>559293Why are so many people using v4 though? Isn't it vastly inferior to the new gens?
>>559119on that note is there a good posing addon or script or something to better manipulate the models? the default is seriously bad.
>>559183pretty sure you don't need an invite code
>>559154oh you mean random files? you have to unzip them and get to the stuff you would put in your library. and drag and dropit's similar to this but there's some subtleties she doesn't get into. which is annoying because sometimes the file explorer in daz won't show the stuff or some stuff shows up but doesn't work.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gGsgk94NknMall the way up to the 3 minute mark she explains it the i've been doing it. just drag the core content into My DAZ 3D Library located in pic related
>>559302My own theory is they have been fapping and using poser for so many years they've got a gigga collection of items.
>>559302probably because so much stuff was made for it. the same reason why some people prefer gen f 2 over gen f 3. some people actually put money into it.
>>559314G3F is starting to have more official items now.Per base store filter:>Genesis 2 Female (2529)>Genesis 3 Female (2645)
I need to stop blind buying characters.Besides that, any suggestions on V4 clothing packs? There has to be some torrents floating around.
what are some good fuccboi models for daz?
>>5593243d-age and Shanassoulmate are pretty good items
Is there anything like this for G2? Or how can I use this on V4? It's A3 Cool Fever
>>559324why the fuck do you even do that? I mean you buy 1-2 of em, you dress up them, jerk off 2-3 times, you get fucking bored from DAZ/poser... IMHO this should be maximum what you do with these softwares. I just don't get what is there more to explore in there?? if you are using base mesh for other programs, to enhance it/make your own model out of it (Zbrush for example) native basic model will be enough forthat.I just don't get what are Daz/Poser community trying to achieve, after what I've already said
>>559408It's a vicious cycle but there is some minor progress in porting to UE4/Blender. Just lose motivation quick.
>>559367pls respond
>>559440depends on your preference senpai, just browse daz site for G3M
Some V4 skins look alright still I guess.
>>559447that bitch's got the dry lips, put on some lip balm bitch
>>559450There's SSS version but then it becomes covered in baby oil
>>559302IMO she has better morphs and it's a hell of a lot easier to isolate them. If someone makes a full body morph for Genesis you can't turn the head off and keep the body and vice versa without jumping through hoops. You can easily do this with V4 though.
>>559408>I just don't get what are Daz/Poser community trying to achieveI guess I'm in the same boat as you. I don't have a clue what you're trying to achieve either. But the difference between you and me is I don't give a flying fuck what you're trying to achieve because it doesn't matter.
>>559293Thanks senpai
how the hell do i change nipple colors on modelsdo i relaly have to take them out and edit them then like mask them in or something?how is v7 so popular when her nips are the same color as her skin
>>559544Just edit the texture in photoshop my dude, very easy to do
>>559544yes, also ghost nipples are the best.
>>559547i dont have photoshop or know how to do thatim an archviz boy daz is pretty new to me
>>559550Make a copy of the original texture somewhere else and edit with GIMP, paint.net, photoshop or whatever.
>>559544there are sliding editors for breasts and genitals. you might want to look into that.
>>559408I'm not going to walk you through the process. At this point if you don't already know you're too late. Some of us are trying to make VR in UE4.
>>559682i sure did loook hard and couldnt findjust checked againfor clarification im talking about plain old victoria 7if i look in her surfaces stuff, theres nothing at all for nips
>>559687that looks quite good
>>559687that portion of community I approve, very much!
>>559687very benisable. is there a release of this?
Does anyone know how to make textures? I know the easier way is to just fuck around in photoshop, but I'd like to learn how to do it for custom assets etc. I tried zbrush and attempted to copy what others have done, but can't seem to get results as realistic as some of the daz skins
>>559706Textures from scratch is HUUUUUUUGE. Short answer: Practice and tutorials.Long answer: Pprraaccttiiccee aanndd ttuuttoorriiaallss

>>559547>>559549>>559550>>559552>>559544Been trying this for hours, i get its probably so simple but i never have used photoshop or gimp before really aside from some simple croppingits beyond mei cant beleive theres no tutorials out there to edit skin tones in daz considering none of the models come with options for it
sois the best place for getting assets for here just downloading from the russian sites that seem tobe full?i dont mind paying for the occasiional thing but i feel like i have been burnt by not being able to preview the products properly on DAZ
>>559780that zonegfx link is at the top. pretty much the best place besides torrents.
>>559736desu without miro i wouldn't even be messing with daz. he made me take it more serious.
>>559767I'm in the same boat but just want to make characters much more pale.
Is this the power of Daz studio?
>>559822yes, but it is rendered in Octane according to his DA Page.
>>559811That was my next thing to do after I figured out nipples lol...Ill let you know if I figure it outBusy at work today so will try again for a while tomorrow night. From what I gather it's certainly doable in Photoshop I'm just not sure how, I can change the colors of just the nipples but when I blend the layer of the Pinker nipple together and the old skin they dont blend well
Is there a way to save one chars morphs of one thing? i made some great boobs on v7 i wanna keep for other chars

How can I make Cate Blanchett's Hel?
>>559913just use lahm
>>559982I'll look into that, any suggestions on base for the rest of her?
>>559983pretty sure vic7 has some similar dark makeup, you can take the makeup file into PS and just make the eyeshadow a bit larger
Hey I just thought of something: is it possible to share character recipes, provided we use the same components? (GF3, V7, Hayley, etc?)Because if the were packs given out with all the makings for say like a celebrity for example. Then everyone could share the basic stuff for a vanilla character file.It doesn't seem common, I've seen the celeb recreations but it's always either paid content or outdated graphics or both.In theory someone could just make rars with the resources and put them up in a mega. I know some artists readily hand out recipes to recreate their OCs might as well make a community archive.Any thoughts on this?
>>560157Are you talking about saving a preset number of sliders? That's doable as is.The rest of it, like the requirements for some of the sliders sounds like PIRACY!
>>552549>>552549
>>560222Checked. But, what did he mean by this?
Lighting a character in a scene is pissing me off. Any tips?
>>560283get sickleyields boob fixer for her shirt.What viewport is highlighted when you render? Should be camera viewport and camera properties should have headlamp disabled.
>>560287Headlamp is disabled, and thanks I'll look into it.
>>560288Are you using interior lights and environment map?
>>560289No just Iray mesh lights.
>>560295Iray > Environment > Tone Mapping > Exposure > 5-7 for indoor, 11-13 for outdoorEmission units default at Candle times squared meter (cd*M2). Drop down menu includes WATTS. Use kcd*M2 so you don’t need to crank cd*M2 to the millions
is it worth it to port Daz characters to blender for use as base model sans-head?how is the complexity/topology for use in UE/unity?right now I use makehuman to get a generic human torso since the topo is p.okay but would be open to better options especially if genitals are already included
>>560363SFM people do that all the time.At it's base, polycount isnt bad at allgenitals are not included but things like daz are the better option because of the hilariously large changes you can make to bodyparts. Genitals are available though.
How do I into interior lighting?I want to get going with my space sex demon comic.
>>560406lots of trial and error. I'm still having trouble doing it.
>>560410That's progress but I feel most of the scene is blown out with lighting temperature. Not so much in the living room but things are pretty washed out still. Though, I'm no lighting expert.
>>560411Yea. It's annoying me also. I'll figure it out one day.
>>560412QT grill too, that Leona?
>>560413Georgia
Any suggestions for decently short preview renders on a laptop's Nvidia 950M?
>>560410I hate that hover, I guess the only way around is to tweak posing or add dFormer to the furniture.>tfw hovergirl
>>560431Yea I hate it also.
>>560431You can just clip the model into the surface and it will at least look somewhat like their skin is resting on it/deforming instead of just floating.
>>560442I did with her ass and back, didn't notice the feet until later.
>>560157I believe easiest way would just be save your celeb you make, put it on a mega and list the things you need to make her in a readme with it.If you want to be a vagrant and upload those required characters to a mega that's your perogative
>>559689plain vanilla victoria 7 is gonna be hard without add ons. the character add ons for v7 have them included. like this just happened to have them. LY Beatrix. You might as well use the characters because you can find ones that look closer to a regular human you might be going for look-wise.
>>560767also I forgot how I found it. it was definitely through that zonegfx site, but i found a huge giant bundle with every character so far for gf3. well, maybe not every single one, but there's at least 40. look for it. already had to uninstall all my games and get rid of all my videos and it took 3 nights to install everything.
>>560431don't forget you can also edit the rendered pic in photoshop to correct anything you couldn't get perfect.
>>560410that's pretty good
>>560768I looked again. There's hundreds. I don't know how. It explains why I maxed out my HDD.
How do people get the photorealistic body textures? Post an ad in CL then proceed to take pics and stitch together from there?
>>560967not sure about CL, but that's how it's done
>>5609673DXart does this really well with tit veins
Any one know a daz model that has very light skin and light nipples? Trying to make a pale Asian character but you can't see them naked on the daz store to really decide
>>561040pirate and preview?I don't have any asians but a few fair skinned ones are cerdwin and leora.
>>561054honestly thats what im doing but i only know of two russian sites that link to 'free dl' places that make you wait a while after each download, and dl at slow speeds, so its not exactly practical for just previewing a model.Thankyou though I don't have cerdwin or leora I will give them a try.
>>561062dazposer.netps-ds.infozonegfx.com/tag/genesis-3-female/those should be enough to get a few per day
Retarded question:Newfag here, I just have a question: using that program is possible make models like pic related?, I mean, create a 3D model, respecting the orignal art style of that cartoon?
>>561072by default, no but there are some toon-ish characters.
>>561004Oh buddy boy you want tit veins, look up Gif Author or BalloonDolls.Can't post on blue board.
>>561079NOPE.Veins would be glorious if not for the rest of their characters.
>>561079>>561080I second this. Those guys have some kinda charm in their characters that's hard for me to define. It's like charm of the graphics in certain PS2 games. I realize the irony is that the quality is similar to some people. Growing up looking at 3rdart's totally unrealistic bimbos, it's a style I've grown to appreciate.
>>561084>>561004thank fuck you autists are contained to this thread.Confirmed daz users are degenerates with no eye for quality.

I'm new to DAZ3D. Are there any plugins or whatever to alleviate the GOD-AWFUL UI controls in Daz Studio? I'm used to superior UI controls like found in Sketchup, Blender, 3ds, even shit like Outfit Studio and TK17. Daz seems to frustrate even the most basic functionality like navigating the 3D viewport because of how horrendously designed the controls are. Had the same problem with Poser. Is there any way to control all the camera movement in the viewport with just the mouse, instead of using WASD, and some way to have a proper orbit camera that isn't just some bogus workaround because the devs are incompetent? Honestly though I'm just venting. I fucking hate how these programs have all this functionality but the very basics like camera control seem to get completely overlooked. I can throw together a decent pose in that shitty TK17 in less than five minutes. There's no reason I should have to spend 45 minutes getting the same results in DAZ/Poser just because the developers are retards who can't implement proper controls. I'm pissed off at this shit.
>>561040https://www.daz3d.com/snowflake-for-aiko-7Default 3delight shader is shit though.
>>561225that piggy nose is absolutely disgusting
>>561260I have that same problem. There's potential with the key bind settings (F3). but I cant be arsed to dig through that.
>>552549why does josie look so vengeful?
>>561278Because she sees the lewds people have made of her.
How the heck do I remove lipgloss?All the makeup options seem to have sweaty lips.
>>561233better on the wings?
>mfw I impulse buy too damn much.
>>561315Is that model a daz asset or can it be downloaded in other formats?
>>561325a heavily customized kimberly
>>561327Can you export models from daz as fbx/obj?
>>561328Are you asking if it is possible or if i will do it with tink?
>>561328It's possible.Also, NOW ACCEPTING RENDERS FOR NEXT OP IMAGE.
>>561328>>561330Different anon here. Is it possible to import the obj back into Daz and have it retain all the functions on the vanilla mesh? Like all the joints, IK rigging, facial expressions, etc. When I import it back in, it just acts as one cohesive mesh, if that makes sense.
>>561352Im not sure I understand your question but1) yes you can export from daz as fbx and obj2) depending on the options you choose to keep in hte model when you import them back in you can keep what you exported
>>561353Well, what I mean is, when I import the .obj back into daz, it doesn't have any bones, for example. so I can't pose it or really do much at all with it, nor can I change the facial expression or any of the things I can do with the vanilla mesh. My workflow so far has been -> Export obj from daz -> Import into blender -> Sculpt -> Export obj > Import into Daz.
>>561354You need to look up how to make morphs on youtube. The feature you want is called the Morph Loader Pro, I think.
>>561372Thank you my fambino from another gambino
This shit took me 42 minutes to render
>>561415Hardware specs? That should not have taken that long.
>>561417Don't laugh. I don't have the moolah for an upgrade.
>>561419AMD card, that's why. Without an nvidia card with those cuda cores, iray is slow as fuck. Yours isn't a bad gaming card, but that's why your renders are slow. It falls back on CPU rendering.
>>561435Yeah, figured as much. Chucks!Guess if it's a really intricate piece I'll just have to let it render over night.
>>561260>and some way to have a proper orbit camera that isn't just some bogus workaroundDaz and Poser both have this and it's a simple one click solution.
>>561440Indeed, would still prefer to not have to move to the side and select that button. 3DS/Blender/Maya all have it. I'm pretty sure its doable in Daz via key binds though.Just modified via F3 settings, MMB works or whatever you want.
Hate to bog the thread down but I don't know where else to go.I've been trying to broaden the skeleton around the shoulders of this character to account for more muscular body proportions, but I can't figure it out. Left is vanilla Genesis 3 skeleton with my morph applied on top of it. Right is the kind of breadth I want for the shoulders, but as you can tell I had to deform the skeleton to get it that way. That makes posing impossible. If I try to use "Adjust rigging to shape" it just reverts to the one of the left.I've been googling but can't find anything in regards to editing the skeleton that suit my needs. I need to broaden the shoulders but don't know how. Can anyone help?
>>561495Hmm. Nevermind, I think.What I did was I broadened the shoulders in the Zbrush mesh instead, then imported that as the morph and adjusted rigging to THAT instead, and it caused the skeleton to morph into pretty much what I was looking for.
>>561086>>561178>thank fuck you autists are contained to this thread.>Confirmed daz users are degenerates with no eye for quality.you're the reason people hate /3/. why nobody's into 3D.>ohhhh its so fucking hard>ohhhhh you're doing it wrongkill yourselfi don't have to like the shit you likedo the same and fuck off
>>561225I don't get it.
Where can I find the vanilla diffuse maps for Genesis 3 bodies?
>>561515dude just browse the sites provided in OPhere this is just 6 minutes of browsing through the daz store, just pick your poison, find a download and slide your waifu to where you want If none fit your need then you'll need to learn to port and mod stuff through blender
>>561536>make my own shitB-But I'm straight
Thread is autosaging, new thread>>561539>>561539>>561539
>>561540ehhh, we're only on page 3 , I'd wait another 4 or 5 pages before a new thread
>>561419Try lowering the iterations if you're using iRay. The default is overkill and assumes you have a 1090 n shit. Just go to your render window and it should be in general or preferences or some shit.
>>561559>iterationsis it called something else?
>>561561I'm sorry it's called samples. It's under the progressiver rendering tab: Here's the vidya that shows you how:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t1UWpBcPRs0
>>561562I found it on my own, it's hella unintuitive that higher resolutions are faster but kinda neatI guess the only reason not to oversample is memory limit?

Anyone know anything about doing good looking furs in DAZ?To be specific, im trying to make several big fox tails to put on girls.I have looked into LAHM but its pricey, though I don't mind paying for it if it can do what I want.
>>561741Some iray shaders have fur
>>553623>DAZ is shit for the mere fact that people who use it are shit and are looking for the easy way out to make money or their shit uncanny valley pregnancy fetish shitWow! You REALLY have to put some cream on all that butthurt of yours.
>>552951There are still plenty of people using 3Delight but only if they're making NPR renders. 3Delight is a hell of a lot faster than Iray for NPR.
>>553999Daz is pretty easy to rig in once you get used to it.
>>554109Daz is just a rendering/animating program, you'll need a modelling program too (Zbrush, 3Dcoat, Hexagon, etc). Make your models in your modelling program. Import the OBJ into Daz and then rig them, pose them and render them.
>>554304Keymate, Graphmate, and Animate2 are needed if you're going to be animating.MCasual has a whole bunch of physics related scripts for adding physics to Daz animations too which you should get as well.
>>562383I figured it out. You either have to stick to using the rig or stick to using the sliders. I was having the same problem as that guy earlier.
