Subject: Problems with "Body Hair"

Hi, I have modificated a HighRes Texture for Poser 5 Julie (Vicky Texture). The "genital Hair" was made by myself. As I rendered the figure with the Poser 5 renderer (I forgott the name) the genital hair is very blurred! I used Photoshop 7 and a hair brush that I found in the net. Has anyone some tipps for drawing genital hair on a texture? Bumb maps are not supported in the Poser 5 renderer. Please help me! thanks eggi

What render settings did you use? The "Draft" settings trade quality for speed, so you will get much sharper results by simply switching to production mode. The P5 renderer does support bump maps, btw.

I dont used the "production-mode" I have just used the "FirwFly " (now I know the name of the P5 renderer ;-) in "Draft" mode. I used the following settings: - use displacement... ON - Raytracing ON - Cast Shadows OFF - Smooth polygons ON - Remove backfacing... ON - Use texture filtering ON In the other setting Field I have made no changes. What kind of settings do I need for a realistic result? >>The P5 renderer does support bump maps, btw. << I have read somewere the P5 does not support bumb maps with FireFly! Just in the P4 renderer you can use bumb maps is it right? Greets eggi

On the top of the render settings dialog, click on "Production" to get the quality optimized settings. For an in-depth explanation of all the parameters, see my web site (link above). No FireFly supports bump maps just fine. What it doesn't support are .bum files, they need to be converted to proper bump maps first.

I see you came from germany. Lothar Matths would say "my english is not very good" By the way, my english too ;-) So we can talk in german. Ich mudann also ein Bumb mab erzeugen und wo im Material-Room muich diese dann einladen? Deine Tutorials habe ich mir Gestern schon alle runtergesaugt bzw. ausgedruckt! Sehr hilfreich! Leider ist mein englisch nicht so wunderbar gut. Dann kann ich dich ja gleich nochetwas fragen ;-) Gibt es eigentlich einen Shader mit dem man die Struktur der Haut realistischer darstellen kann? Wie kann ich eine Hauttextur realistischer gestalten (mit Photoshop)? Wie kann ich die Poser 5 eigenen Haare z. B. f mayadoll nutzen? Wenn ich das versuche, passen die Haare nicht auf den Kopf :-( Das gleiche gilt f die Kleidung! Entschuldige das ich dich so penetrant mit Fragen bombardiere. Grueggi

Auf PoserPros gibt es einen sticky-thread der genau zeigt wie man bump und displacement maps in Poser 5 benutzt: http://www.poserpros.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=6969 Ich wde nur anstelle des "gradient_bump" Kanals den normalen "bump" benutzen, oder eben gleich displacement maps. Das angehgte Bild we ein Beispiel f einen Haut-Shader. Auch die "skin"-node erzeugt ganz gute Resultate. F das erstellen einer guten Hauttextur wendest du dich am besten an Cath von mec4d.com, dort gibt es auch ein Forum. Cath ist eine der besten auf dem Gebiet. Um die Poser 5-Haare auf einen anderen Kopf zu biegen defromierst du am einfachsten die darunter liegende "skullcap". Das kannst du entweder mit den normalen Skalierungen machen oder aber zuszlich Magneten verwenden. Die Kleidung kannst du ebenfalls mit den Skalierungen oder den Magneten verformen. Zum Gebrauch von Magneten such einfach mal nach den "Dr.Geep"-Tutorials, es mste hier im Forum kzlich auch eines er Magneten gegeben haben.

Sorry I dont speak or understard german. I have had similar issues in Poser 5 and body hair. You may wish to look at and adjust the value of: "Minimum shading rate(pixel area)" in the render options its right below al the checkboxes. the smaller the value the sharper hair will look. I have found 0.500 to work well. hope this helps.
