what the best tool/plugin for creating hair?
What are the chances Daz creates a real time render animation suite like iclone that would work seamlessly with Daz models and animations/poses?
>>638872Ornatrix or Yeti for Maya, or Houdini's integrated hair tools.
>>638898From what we've heard about them being in maintenance mode with very few actually working on the program itself. Not a good chance. Best bet is importing to loliClone, blender 2.8 etc.
>>638852That's some of the worst modeling and texturing I've ever seen.
>>638941You've seen nothing then
>>638906I already have yeti and houdini, but is Ornatrix worth the price?
>>638852Poser & DAZ communities are weird
>>638987SO that's why the mask is worn.
1st render, improvement tips please.
>>639051By default nostril maps should be black, what did you do and why did you do it
so I was getting tired of the awful seams in the iris region, and merged the sclera and iris material regions into one, I also merged the lips with the face material region... why isn't this by default? the lips especially has no need for a separate texture, no? even if you want separate colors for the lips, you'll still need to supplement another (most likely) high-res texture...at first glance this looks ten times better and I rid myself of 3 material regions using resources for no reason (cba to confirm if it did lower resource consumption).my guess that it makes it easier to create your own textures? no idea honestly
>>639051Read up on 3 point lighting
>>639126>I can't understand what character developers are doing here and instead of thinking about it harder I'll call the last 15 years' worth of paradigm stupidYou're not going to make it
>>639126If you understood how Daz builds its humans, you'll realise that the sclera & iris and face & lips use the same textures, ya idiot. They're separate materials because they _are_ separate materials. For example, having the lips on a separate material allows you to have fine control over glossiness in the event you have lip makeup.
>>639214I'm waiting for anon to Sheldon Cooper us that you should just have all of the head on one unbroken material zone with entire separate head maps for every minor variation. >I have a visible seam in a border between two materials, therefore I should solve the problem by merging the materials instead of learning about shaders
>>639213Putting words in my mouth I see.>>639214I will admit I do not in fact understand how they're made. However it did strike me that I may not understand the technicalities behind the models, and it almost swayed me away from posting the above. >>639215Never said I was unwilling to learn, albeit shader editing is foreign to me.
Holy fuck look at thishttps://www.daz3d.com/genesis-8-for-mayaWith this you can port the genesis 8 models and any morphs to maya 8 where you can easily animate it thanks to auto set up human IK rigAll the morphs are ported to maya, even the joint controlled morphs, so the figure will deform correctly just like in DAZFurthermore you could change the shape of the figure mid animation.Think about what this means for easily made porn with actual good models. Someone spread this to animators. So many possibilites (belly deformation, cum inflation, etc.)
>>639286Is there a way to easily transfer a pose done in DAZ to human IK?
>>639289that script can probably do that, altho i havent tested it if just copies it in t-pose or any pose applied
>>639119He's into hyper boogers
Is making extremely realistic clones of "original" daz Deviantart characters and posing them in extremely degrading situation a sin? How would an average autistic fandom react when one of their top femdom OC is suddenly taking dick into her ass and making ahegao faces?Just hypothetically.
>>639385Try it, see what happens, post results here.
>>639385I never considered doing that. I like where you head is at.
>>639385>How would an average autistic fandom react when one of their top femdom OC is suddenly taking dick into her ass and making ahegao faces?oh geez that sounds demeaning totally don't give all of them giant floppy horse cocks either that would be rude
>>639414desu they probably already have the dicks.
>>639416fuck me what was I thinking
All natty.
>>639448Your journey leads you to a fork on the road. The path on the right, a worn out cobblestone lane leading straight into the forests above you. The left path, a winding road, well-tended but old, leads down into the rocks below.Two guardians stand in your way, stark naked and well-oiled. One male, one female, both gay from /fit/. You know one answes with the truth, but will delete your gains instantly. The other always lies, but will double your gains for the rest of you life.You dont know which one, and you can only ask one question before they return to flexing and mirin'.How do you proceed?
>>639483
>>639119idk it's the gia 7 skin, maybe cause i used a headlamp?>>639193I know what that is but i went stupid mode, i'll give it a go.
>>639483Ask either which path their counterpart would say is the correct one, and take the opposite path.
>>63962250% chance of losing your sick gainz, which would probably make you die in either road.
>>638852Does anyone know of a character for V4 who looks similar to pic related? I don't mind doing some dialing and zbrushing but need a model to get me 70% of the way there.
>>639483I would ask if they ever lie, then follow the path of the one that says they don't.
>>639673>V4You are a man of exquisite taste. About a third of what appears to be the shape of her face is makeup you'll need to reproduce in the diffuse texture. When I'm not slammed at work today I'll look over my collection and see which one comes closest.
animation system is very simple and efficient but IRAY is so long, I use openGL for the moment. Waiting for nvidia RTX improvement.
>>639735gimme ur patreon
>>639735Maybe you should invest time in a really creative way to commit suicide instead?
>>639734Thanks, I made so much with v4 I don't think I could start over. Here's a less made up picture for your reference.
>>639735I'll pay you to stop.
>>639751maybe later... ;)
>>639761LOL Fansadox?

>>639787some questions are better left unanswered.>>635708
>>639805Did the artist make Chad from the Virgin vs Chad meme?
>>639752>tiffany mulheronThis should be about 50-70% dials as long as you have Morphs++. Beating a deadline atm so I can't work on it right now.
>>639787I recognize your art from the last time you posted your snuff porn here. Learn 3 point lighting, it's not rocket science. That ambient shit looks like a half-burned out ceiling fluorescent tube and you're not letting Iray run long enough. Also don't take this the wrong way but you pose people fucking like you've never had sex yourself before. Either take care of that or start using other peoples' pose sets until you get laid.
>>639820I don't like long renders, it's boring
>>639820>That ambient shit looks like a half-burned out ceiling fluorescent tube and you're not letting Iray run long enoughit's OpenGL, Iray is too long for animation but you right, I didn't work light in these animations
>>639836>chromatic aberration>that fucking faceI regret giving you any advice
>>639814No worries, should I make the same request in the next thread or should I take the hint?
>>639835>>639836Hey look, it's present-day Europe
>>639850>Hey look, it's present-day Europebof, I will take a Nvidia RTX 2070
>>639847Maybe I'll give it a try when I get home. I'll keep this thread posted if I do.
>>639863That must have been a high quality, safe for work post where the women were not implied to have anything other than female genitalia and everyone was depicted as of legal age.
>>6398643d models don't have legal age, anon.3d models can't think, and in fact do not have rights. No matter what they are telling you, 3d models aren't people.
>>638852For you.
>>6398781. I agree with all your points2. I was disappoint to find out it was a completely tasteful nude whose only offensive content was being grainy as fuck due to under-rendering
Woah! Those bitties ride hard!
>>640134plz give wireframe overlay for middle girl and her breast overflow. I'm, impressed,
>>640134How do you make hair butch dyke guy?
>>640152Here you are. The tits also have some height mapping I slapped on in substance painter, to make them pop a little more.>>640155I use the hair cards pipeline. Flat geometry planes with a hair texture and transparency map on them, shaped into the desired hairstyle. I'm not very good at it, but I make it work.
>>640195fabulous, that's the sort of thing I've been meaning to do for a while.
>>640207If you need help with anything just call me out in the thread and I'll do my best to aid you. I always have a tab open so if I'm not posting I'm probably lurking.
>>640228I don't mean to suck your dick but you've really come far in the last year. Thanks for taking at least some of our advice to heart. We might not be the nicest people but we aren't going to lie to you either.Have a muscle girl.

>>640386cuck
>>640152Are you samefagging so you can show off your breast rendering skills?
>>640439no, I'm OP that always asks tit-related questions or posts redheads with giant tits.
>>640195What are hair cards?
Hail to the queen, baby!
>>640530An approach for creating hair we used for almost 3 decades. It's good enough when decently done, but it's a fill rate killer in real time applications and is prone to shimmering/aliasing. For offline rendering it's probably no longer the way to go.
>>640539>we used for almost 3 decadesAnd will continue to use until hardware is capable of dealing with strand-based hair in something resembling realtime. Pros of cards are that any hardware can render it and you can provide a large number of deformers to simulate basic physics. Cons are a very limited degree of realism in animation and more complex issues involving longer hair (e.g. the way it spreads out when lying flat) really aren't simulated well with cards which fundamentally operate on a locks rather than strands basis.
Of all boards on the chan, /3/ is the most pathetic. Of all threads on /3/, Daz is most pathetic.
>>640653>what is /a/ and /b/
>>640653>Daz is most pathetic.nah, the Blundertards are even more spastic
>>640653And of all the posters in this thread, you are the most pathetic.
>>640653Daz is a tool, a utility. The character meshes are solid and free to use so why not use them to save time? A few morphs and simple clothes, a different render engine and poof! You've just saved yourself a few years learning character creation.Plus you can export the rigs.It is more of how you use the tool. I do understand your frustration with DAZ, however. If the shit on this board gets you down you can always check out reddit's board. Or you could contribute. Fag.
>>640688ANd you think this model of yours looks like character? It looks like a fucking mannequin that's the problem with DAZ, everything is stock..
>>640681Are you insane? Lol
>>640697True. I'm not out to make porn look life-like. I am here to P A R T Y ! and ...R O C K !
>>640688You can usually tell DAZ characters from a mile away. I don't know why, but that's how it is.This wouldn't be bad if it weren't for it lessening the perceived artistry and skill level of whoever assembled the character/scene.
>>640706Precisely why I chose to do my renders in Blender. I get the funny feeling that it is what you do with the tool or utility. Like how you can make a better impression with a #2 pencil vs. someone who went to art school and can whip out an oil painting but .. nothing is there that grabs you. Peace.
>>640709ps: the robot on this post is from 3D artist Varanda on Blendswap.
>>640709Do you think that image you posted looks better than the average DAZ render?
>>640712We here at Starfleet like to encourage technical sportsmanship so ... YES! We think it is "fucking" awesome.As of right now we are working on the interior of this Winnebago.
>>640713Looks decent, unlike your previous renders.
>>640715peace brother - Happy Labor Day
>>640713looks good nibba
>>640720Thank you for the weird compliment, brother.
>>640709Learn how to set up proper materials. Cycles user here and this still looks a lot like Iray trash. You can do better.
>>640759Poser's Superfly renderer is baded on Cycles
>>640709>Precisely why I chose to do my renders in BlenderYeah and your choice of male figures which is barely tweaked from default already told everyone what you're using regardless of renderer. And exporting Poser to Blender to use the same render engine…
>>640770That doesn't matter. What I was saying is that that anon doesn't know how to set up materials.
>>640780No but it's hilarious that he exported Poser to Blender just to use the same engine.
>>640759>most render engines look like plastic-y PS4 graphics>my 5 year old Luxrender engine still churns out great results.An no I won't post pics as all I make is porn. I'm not wasting 30 minutes zbrushing a bikini onto my models to avoid a ban.
>>640783Post 'em censoring the naughty bits.
>>640783>my 5 year old Luxrender engineJust say RealityAlso link your work because I might want to beat off to it
>>640787>Just say RealityHaha yeah I'm still using Reality 2.5, Reality 4 isn't as good imo. I'm on DA as fredfred5150 and allthefallen as naughtyfred.
>>640789sweet fuck you're one of those people
>>640789>Reality 4 isn't as good imowell shit, sorry I upgraded.
>>640790I dabble, it's not my main interest.>>640791So did I and went back to 2.5, 4 has fewer options for things like eyes. I think they sacrificed some things in the settings to achieve the greater speed.
>>640790atleast its not as bad as xmrsmoothx
>>640789Okay, I take it back, please don't post anything.
>>640793
Goodnight board.
>>640688Okay, I will allow it. But Daz is also a shortcut for talentless douchebags to slap FF cups onto teenagers with wonky facial proportions.
>>640801Do you actually think this looks good?
>>640801goodnight moon>>640803goodnight awful brow maps
>>640801looks like a Poser 3 render. And wtf is with the horns ?
I don't know why people aren't using marmoset or orctane or redshift or even blender's new rendererDAZ models are great, they are the best human bese models around, but most DAZ renders look like ass because people use shit renderers.
>>640538This one's nice though
>>640940The biggest issue is conversion. DAZ is fairly inflexible when it comes to moving things cross-program, and you often lose features like morphing as well as experiencing things like rigs breaking. There are methods, but they're long and tedious and most people usually don't want to go through the process. Plus, all the shaders are already built for Iray. If you moved things to a different platform, you'd have to set up all the materials again. Not saying that that's difficult, but people can be really lazy. So, in short, it's just inefficient to do so.
>>640942>you'd have to set up all the materials againWorst part.

>>640990I can see what you mean but that is more like the one who shall not be named.>>641015Save scene, relaunch daz, open scene, render.Daz is SHIT at memory management (among many other things)Or the materials and other things in your scene are > your GPU memory. Even when under the memory limit, changing things around eats more memory.

>>641141>where'd you find this?It's among the newest additions to Renderosity's gallery. I don't have a URL tho, sorry.
>>639385If someone could clone the top Daz guys around that'd be pretty cool. But I think some of them use methods that are a touch advanced. Like using the normals to get foot wrinkles and using zbrush to perfectly sculpt the bodies.But if you can do it please do, and post results please.
>>641160>top Daz guysPERFECTION!
>>641162That's absolutely horrifying.
>>641162It's funny how many of the content creators (modelers selling clothes and stuff) in the Daz community are utter shit at rendering.
>>641160>the top Daz guysCould you point to a couple of examples? I'm genuinely interested in seeing what kind of work they do.
>>638898Probably not because it would be harder to sell taking a shit animations.pic very related, whats your excuse for not throwing any goddamn thing you feel like onto daz and making 20 bucks. Mine is I still have a shred of dignity, but i'm sure that will be gone once the ramen noodles run out.

Are there any plugins or products for anatomical accuracy? Im noticing that certain limbs dont look right when bent and the muscles dont really flex.Also which is better for simple drawing reference, poser or daz?
>>641442>Are there any plugins or products for anatomical accuracy? Im noticing that certain limbs dont look right when bent and the muscles dont really flex.Outside of the film industry, most 3D figures are hollow rigid bodies in either A or T poses and joint bending is a deformation governed by "bones" whre additional deformers keep the limb bends rounded instead of sharp. Actual muscular bulges as a result of these bends, when they exist, are additional deformers intentionally built into the figure and how that's done is a matter of which technology makes more sense for the figure and for the application. For example you aren't generally going to see realistic scapulae movements from the back because the necessary mechanics to swivel, bend or turn a figure's arm socket don't rely on an actual shoulderblade. >Also which is better for simple drawing reference, poser or daz?There probably isn't much difference here. Poser was originally designed as a simple manikin posing application for exactly that purpose.
>>641442But to answer your first question more directly, that depends on the figure. The old but beloved V4 has a handful of addons that make limb bends more realistic but again, they aren't applicable to other figures.

I just still don't get how people use maya in their workflowIt takes me so many tries to bring shit into maya without it crashing. Is it a PC issue or a Maya issue? Am I missing something painfully obvious?

I run Maya 2017 on and older Win7 machine and it crashes sometimes but its just for fooling around and I have almost every 3rd party renderer installed that exists so its no wonder it crashes sometimes lol

Has someone ever managed to make a Daz model that doesn't look like a typical Daz model? Like where you cannot instantly tell it's Daz? Also what is it that makes them so easily recognizeable and how could you change that and make it less creepy? The renderer? The focal length of the camera? The eyes? The symmetrical face? There must be a way to get them past the uncanny valley, even videogames with shit graphics are somehow able to get across.
>>642042I dunno, I've been at it for a few years, how are mine?

>>642067Post more Marissa>>641730Are you the anon from a few threads back?Post Test01 and Test02
>>641975It is dated yeah, what would you suggest I upgrade first?My exact issue is Maya crashing on imports because Daz stuff can get very detailed, but it doesn't make sense to me as maya should be able to handle it. The only way I get tings to work is going body, then hair, then clothes, sometimes have to do clothes separately. It's just so tedious not being able to import them together.Once everything is inside then Maya is smooth, I rarely crash when I'm actually working, it's just on importing.
>>642042Once you have seen the default presets for many of the common girls, they become very easy to spot.Another giveaway is the facial expressions. If you don't use some real customs one's, they also are dead giveaways.

>>642095instead of dindus I like my girls getting raped by monsters or old fat man. Does this work too for Xmess cuck?
>>642095Eh no. Because it's irrelevant to what that big meaty vein-covered cock is attached that does torso-deep penetrations, so I substitute the human males in my artworks with monsters like ogres, orcs, goblins, lizardmen, minotaurs etc.
>>642141but how match the textures?
>>642142You have to redo them obviously, this is what templates are for. I also export everything to Maya for re-rigging, animation and rendering. The thought of doing more than preparing/shaping/dressing a character in DAZ makes me sick.I salvaged a lot of older assets this way, by redoing surfaces/rigging completely. Poser/DAZ artists made a lot of cool creatures over the years, but you need to put in some extra work to get them on a certain level.These days I'm genuinely more excited about new creature and monster assets than about the x-th variation of some blonde bimbo. I wish more people would do interesting creature designs.
>>642149Obviously we need more variation in spiked heeled everything.
>>642149Pretty much this.Once I realized how obtuse daz's built in method for minor tweaks and just how many outside programs I'm using in the end, I might as well just use a complete 3D suite after dialing and exporting the character base I want with clothing etc.Daz needs an overhaul but it's not coming.
Daz newb here. How would I go about making a female terminator with visible endoskeleton. Something I could remove sections of organics to reveal the endoskeleton?
>>642182Figure it out yourself like any other 3D artist would.
>>642184That's an odd url. Or perhaps it's a book title? I lknow /3/ users are so helpful.
>>642185What you're asking to do is far too complicated for a complete beginner to do, unless you're content with using DAZ store crap, in which case I'm sure there's something out there. If you're talking about creating something from scratch, you really have to rely on your own skillset to get you through this particular problem solving. Nobody knows what pipeline is going to work for you. Nobody knows what your artistic vision is. Either get good or get lost.
>>642186>>642182They've got to start somewhere. I guess one sloppy method could parenting the endoskeleton's skull to the head and then using a morph modifier to push the actual character's geo beneath. You'd still need to add effects or modify the base character's skin to be bloody around whichever edges you decided to push.I feel like there was a daz item for this in the last six months but can't find it atm.
>>642186Really? I mean, it's just:>learn how to model, rig and texture an endoskeleton>learn proper boolean techniques for culling portions of the human geometry so the endoskeleton can show and the geometry still remains subd-safeThat's like two steps man. Two steps isn't complicated.
>>642189>boolean cullingDidn't think of that. Now I'm interested in trying on my own.
>>642182>>642189(and >>642190, might as well)Serious answer though, probably just find a suitable endoskeleton model (definite bonus points if you make it yourself), create the appropriate morphs so it stays in shape with whatever body morphs you're using, then drag your body mesh into ZBrush and sculpt out all the missing "damage" points. Transfer those as HD morphs, create the appropriate textures around the damage points, viola. The intersections probably won't look that good, and you'd have to further create normal maps for the damage areas to look right (all the high detail skin tears and loose skin, etc.), but for a DAZ-compatible setup it should be about there.
>>642191Actually, wait, no. Having the endoskeleton act like clothing would be a more elegant solution rather than treating it separate. It just hides underneath the body mesh, which I'm not sure would entirely work, but if DAZ's clothing system is as simple as I think it is it should with no problems.
>>642189No it's never "just" anything. Everything becomes simple when you break it down in terms like that. Creating a movie is just as easy as devising a script, gathering a crew, filming it, editing it and distributing it, right? In 3D art particularly, wrestling with the software, dealing with unexpected problems and trying to keep your artistic vision vivid is not easy when you're starting off. Especially the part about unexpected problems. Sometimes the hardest part is just finding out what to troubleshoot. If your computer isn't end of the line you might find frustrations build up at how slow everything in the creative process is.If you think everything is a cakewalk because the core principles are easy to comprehend, you clearly have little to no experience actually doing the work. Now I don't know what skill level the anon has, but if he has to ask how to do something which is quite complicated, not even asking a particularly specific question but just broadly how to implement something, he's probably pretty inexperienced.
>>642193Appreciate the serious answer, but major case of >>>/whoosh/ there. Maybe you were going off on your own tangent, because it's hard to believe you couldn't detect such scathing sarcasm. I already provided my serious, proper answer below.
>>642195It's difficult to judge tone over the internet, anon. And you'd be surprised how delusional people get. Your post didn't even seem that outlandish, there really are people that naive.
>>642182>get a terminator skeleton model>attach it to daz gen8 rig with transfer tool>create morphs in zbrush for damage areas>create texture and normal maps in substance painter. Or do it all in zbrush whatever>????>fap to female terminator
not mine but related
>>642198I recognize that triceps. That's Tigersan, innit.
clare3dx has good tutorial for giant breast fits but I cant seem to get mine to work.pic related.https://www.deviantart.com/clare3dx/journal/DAZ3D-Tutorial-Fix-Cloth-for-Big-Boobs-w-dForce-735457331
>>642210Though appears to have worked much better on GF8
>>642211Your mileage may vary with the more extreme morphs.
So far it's worked well on most things I've tried. Not sure what to adjust with d-force for wrinkles though.
>>642149Name some good poser/daz standalone creature figures suitable for fucking girls.
>>642212This kinda reminds me of somebody, I don't recall what was his name... MrXSomething...?
>>642250OOF, you wound me!I can see it though. Since he appears to render in opengl with basic colors. Nipples need to be dicks though.
>>642269Don't forget the pierced anal prolapse!
>>642301I wish I could forget it.Unrelated, It's that time of year to work on those SPOOPY renders!
>>642314fearboners count too.
>>642314what's even the point of the scene being there if it's gonna be so dark?
>>642317At that point, I was toying with light from the candle only. Definitely going to light the hallway some but haven't decided where to go from there. Originally thought of having some monster's face barely lit behind her. Will need lots more lights for sure though.
>>641813I decided to give it a try in Mantra. Still building the shaders.
I'm trying to make a na'vi loli for reasons...I know the stripes need to be darker and the dots look kinda shitty r8 now, also there are no good braided hairs
>>642068This dress is too hot.
>>642402WIP
the render will be in real time with the Nvidia RTX ? Daz studio uses IRAY
>>642425Probably not for a while, Daz needs to actually program the functionality into it.
>>642426I think they are already working on it, maybe in 2 months
>>642427welp, i'm still using a 960gtx, and won't get an RTX card even if I had the money, so it wouldn't benefit me at all.
>>642428>and won't get an RTX card even if I had the moneywhy not?
>>642431I'm never an first-adopter, I always wait for new tech to mature. That and the price is waaaaaay too high.
>>642428I have a 970gtx and render are very boring, I will take an RTX ( maybe a hypothetical futur RTX2060 because the 2070 is a bit expensive ). I want to make animations2019 will be great for 3d creation
>>642427>Daz needs to actually program the functionality into it.pfffft, considering DAZs snail pace at dev I'd say maybe in 5 years (if they still exists by then)
>>641535
>>642427why dont you let your renders get to 100%?
>>642557He said he gets bored, duh
>>642564weirdnormally i do a render a day and leave it on either overnight or when i go outdo you guys sit and watch your renders?
>>642564i know that feel, need a second PC
>>642571GTX 960 anon hereI honestly don't have a problem, my renders don't usually take longer than an hour in Iray, and if I'm using Lux I'll let it run over-night. I always render at super high-res, and downscale from there as well.This one was originally 1600x2080, rendered in 34 minutes.
>>642574i usually do overnight renders, also on a 960, just leave them overnight and downscale afterignore the shitty background was trying to make it into a NWN portrait and fucked up lol
>>642570My 1080ti renders pretty fast. I have room in my box for one more and might do that if prices drop enough.
>>642574Fix the hair clipping, please~
>>642570I watch youtube video during my renders.I never go more than 8 minutes.
>>642640yeah, you need to work on that ADHD and let it go for at least 30
>>642641yea yea, I will get a RTX, it will be more simple.
>not exporting your scenes and putting them in marmoset or similar for instarenderiray looks like shit anyway
>>642646It's not terrible, but in terms of final image quality and flexibility, I love LuxRender.
>>642646>Enjoy setting up all your shaders again.I export to similar and it's always such a pain
>>642646this is fine but it takes time to learn how to do it, as well as how to work around the program you are moving tos shaders
>>642646for a retarded turd like you probably every renderer looks like shit
what is the name of these hairs ?
>>642730Classic Long Hair with dForce for Genesis 8 Female(s)
>>642570Funny that. Months ago I rendered on cpu, and took a weird pleasure into setting my scenes just right and rendering it over several days, setting up everything perfectly and doing it again and again.Now I have a GTX 1070 and render the same scene in one hour, and I have lost all my drive. It's just not the same. My PC isn't even shutting down because the cpu was too hot anymore. The last time my Windows froze was months ago. My fans don't even go into overdrive. Nowadays I just click on render and voilà, it lost all its luster, all its mystical atmosphere.
>>642641do they really improve that much over so much time? after 5 minutes I can't see any difference from a 5min render or a 15min render
>>642647This. LuxRender gets hate because it's slow but good damn the finished images look great, way better than Iray.
>>642842well nothing stopping you from building a budget PC and enjoying that magic again anon ..... lol>>642845file deleted but yes, they do, unless you have eye issues the noise is very obvious an higher res is always nicer to look at
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pJrLnBDHpcI
>>642845yes it can improve strongly, in fact it depends of the scene, for example the hairs in this image
>>642861edit
>>642859Okay, this is epic.
>>642859I have this software but I don't have the courage to do all the process
>>642865>i have this softwareits not out yet anon, still in pre-order stage
>>642867my bad, it was ICLONE I downloaded, same interface.
>>642859I wait for the cracked version
>>642869Based Daz3d Pirate Poster
>>642869that gfx site and zone will probably have it a day after it releases
Daz is selling it's own bog kit
>>642859They are doing to DAZ what DAZ did to Poser. lmao
>>642879Can you give us a quick rundown, anon?
>????I still have no idea
>>641286ninja ripper and ps2 emulator.
>>641286Which version do you want?There are a few rips in various xnalara groups already.
>>641286Just use vroid to draw the hair and use blender glb plugin to remove the character and copy the hair to daz figure.
>>642918sandra bullock ?
>>642940Oh! Now I see it!
>>642952I will take it and change the shaping of the mouth
>>642972and enlarge the neck...and work on the eyes etc....
>>642918His Natalie Portman isn't bad after I reworked it and changed the skin.
>>642982the next sexual revolution will be about 3D pornhttps://youtu.be/zxEu2fFWT-o?t=3080
>>642321Reworked the shaders and the geometry a bit.
>>641286I managed to port her model into blender. Lots of textures and normal maps. Would that suffice? Because I really don't want to research porting her to SFM since it's redundant and arbitrary (Blender is my animation tool.)
Does anyone know how to import/convert an sfm model for use in Daz? Seems to be a huge selection of unique sfm monsters compared to Daz (which all look like morphed humans).
>>642859I wish Daz would just integrate a real time render animation suite into Studio.
>>642882if they're charging money for the software, they aren't going to succeed.
>>643680As soon as their software starts updating on a more regular basis than Studio, yes they will.
Is there a way to use Iray render view without my machine becoming unusable? What's the point of a render view if you can barely do anything when it's on?
>>641093this
>>643134I hope the same
