    So I've been using DraagonStorms Pose converter to convert all the Generation 4poses that are pz2's to duf's ,but it's kinda slow ,well no it's quicker than trying to save them out as duf's one at a time by myself ........it's just I can't do anything else while it's going ,I've been letting it run over night ......still have tons of poses to go .......

    OOhhhh my goodness was looking through the Paint by numbers on Amazon and found a painting that was obviously made with DAZ figures possible in DAZ Studio or Poser ,but what really caught my eye was the texture used on the Lost Realms mertail ........it is one of the Koi textures I made and put up on ShareCG !!! That is so cool!!!! Seeing something I made being used and for sale like that !! I put them up for free and it still is just so great it made me giggle with glee!! Proof is here

    Lots of great things here Carrie! I'm doing similar with my older stuff and trying to convert it to duf. It takes a lot of time.

     Yeah these converters are great but still take time .But on the plus side using the Bone Minions by RiverSoftArt means I don't have to have the converted files of each generation for each generation .......I've also started looking back at some textures I've started and not finished ......

    okay  here's a render with Genesis 2 pose being used on Genesis8 with Bone Minion ,Dawn ,Genesis8 w/out BoneMinion ,and Genesis3 w/out Bone Minion ........

     

    I actually have most of the converters both paid and free but the nice thing about Bone Minions is you don't need to convert the poses and have 4 generations of duplicate pose files ,in each generation ......

    Got the RSR.to PNG converter from Dizzi's free stuff at Renderosity ,wow that was great and saved me a ton of work recreateing pngs ,for alot of the older stuff ,there were a few it didn't work on but those will be easy to make pngs for!! it did have to run for about 8 hours though, I'm learning to let some scripts just run overnight while I'm sleeping ......this is just Genesis8 with Bone Minion, Dawn , Genesis8 without Bone Minion .......

    Well I finally told "the girl's "about Genesis 9 ,they've been having a confab about it ever since ,and Genesis 1 is positive that just proves she is the best ......because they are just "recycling  her idea "

    @Pendraia Bone Minion does NOT work with Dawn !!!

    But Dawn can use Genesis2 poses

    Good to know. I will still need it though to convert Genesis8 poses to genesis 2? Is that correct?

    I would say yes ,but check and make sure the Genesis 2 poses work for you ....

    Genesis 9 was released yesterday, and I've spent most of the day and night figureing out the material settings and trying to get a look I like with 3DL . Still not totally done but getting there ,forgot to switch the hair to 3DL and it took 6 hours to render ,but that was okay cause I went to bed. I know the changes were done to make a figure compatible with industry standards ,but I'm not in the industry and just like playing ...... I do like the smile and the eyes are good to make hectocromia ........I'm hoping that we'll still get morph packs ..... anyway here is my version of G9Female 3DL

    It's taken a bit but I think I've finally gotten all the parts switched to 3DL ,2 days ago I tried to render out all 4 girls together using lights from DimiensionThereoy and it hung up at 60% for 14 hours before I canceled the render , so I tried just deleting the lights up the headlamp on the camera and tried rendering that ....... nope that didn't work either still hung up at 60% ,but I canceled at 4 hours , then I broke the scene up and went over the surfaces of everything again,and well pluck a duck!! found out that 1 hair was still iRay and also the G9 eyebrows were still original materials ,fixed that and only kept 2 figures at a time in the scene ,rendered with headlight only and it rendered out in less then 5 minutes ...damn good thing too ,I've got  very short patience when rendering ......probably need to see if it's something wrong with my computer  ,but ......anyway this is 4 G9 females ........skins adjusted to 3DL .

    Still working at it but I think I've now managed to get the base to load with 3DL Shaders instead of what they came with ........ also did a randomized shape that was pretty good

    I bought the morph bundle ,and the growing up morphs ,still need Riversofts Bone Minion for G9 released ,and I'm gonna be done buying for G9 ,unless there are Mertails ,Centuars  that come out ......

    Here is a randomized G9 wearing G8 clothes and hair ,textures converted to 3DL ,1 distant light ,not the greatest but makes me happy which is always good

    I'm still using Studio 4.15 ,and I've noticed this for a long time but it seems to me that the headlamp on the camera has gotten dimmer compared to earlier versions of DS ,for a while I thought it was just me ,but now not so much .....am I crazy ,or is that one of the changes ? I use to be able to get a quicky render I was happy with ,with just using the camera headlight ,now I have to bump it up to 2 or 3 .......and when I do add lights it just takes so long to render ......I am using 3DL  not iRay and yes I change all the material settings ......oh well have headache  now .

    How closse are you to the subject of the image? The headlamp is offset, so if you are close enough you will see only the edge of the light cone lighting your subject.

  • carrie58carrie58 Posts: 3,980

    Sometimes very close ,sometimes not so much ...... thank you for popping in Richard
