Dazland is all too squeaky clean and tidy. Where's the grit?

We need dirt, trash, roccks, more grime .. not jus ton the street, but in the bedroom, kitchen, living rooms, etc... clothes hanging over the sofa .. 
dirt and crime in realistic places ... fingernails, hands, etc ... 

Right now much too pasteurized and homoginiezed ... too neat and clean. we need gritty.... with tears in the right places and also moveable..so if I have a tshirt, the tear can be anywehere, not just always in the same place on the shirt. pants too.,

That's... tough, to say the least.

Tears in fabric really benefit from dForce to hang and drape properly, which means actual changes to the model geometry rather than just some opacity cutouts (and even then, those should really be matched to the rest of the surface maps).

How much of a tear? Transparency maps can help with that if the tears aren't too large or in a place that will affect draping. This is also why I like products like SurfaceWorx, skin doctor, and similar products. It's a lot easier to make a texture dirty, than it is to take a dirty texture and make it clean. Having dirty options included in a set though is always appreciated, when they take the time to make sure dirt and wear occur in the right places.

There are also other products of that kind AFAIR, but don't recall which they are right now.

Tears in clothing are very easy to create using Rons Ripped Fabric Brushes. Create a transparency map in your favorite image editing program using Rons brushes to put tears and rips anywhere and any size you like. Then load the newly created transparency map in the clothing base map using the layered image editor. Create a mask for the existing texture map and in the resource section load the transparency map. You also have to load the transparency map in the cutout opacity channel and leave the parameter set to 1.
