vehicle wheel movement

KeithH

The wheel move on most vehicles you purchase. I only do still scenes, not animation.

How do I capture it to look like the hweels are moving in my scene?

Thanks

You'd need to apply some radial blur to the wheels, probably best done in an image editor after the fact but you could try rendering the wheel flat on, with the rest of the mdoel hidden, save as PNG, take that into an mage editor t blur it (and blur the transparency too), then apply that to a scaled plane in DS and place it over the real wheels to partially hide them (or wholly hide them - I'm not sure which would look best).

Gives me a place to start - much appreciated.

That's a post-work thing for me.

Working outside of Daz, after, I select the wheel, copy it to a new layer and apply a motion blur and place that on top the full render.

and sometimes adding extra post work stuffs to increase the effects.

....and a lot of them don't turn more than one cycle for animation either which is rather useless

as an aside for those who do do animation 

the combine harvester being the last example I came across

An option, not perfect, but might work for some of what you want is Blur Crazy.

Another option is to use the Motion Blur function in the 3Delight render engine, render the scene in IRay, render the wheels only (hide everything else  (the Multipass/Mask tool is also useful for this sort of thing) in 3Delight using motion blur (in the Advanced tab), then combine in postwork. Been years since I used the 3Delight motion blur system but if I remember correctly you need to set the scene, adjust the timeline, rotate the wheels, turn on the motion blur and render away.

Yeah, I've come across a number of products...luckily been able to turn limits off for rotation in most cases;)

3DL blur works well, as long as you set up the timeline correcty, and set the blur samples high enough. As mentioned, rendering separate layers and combining in post is an option.

...couple of 3DL renders...
