Yes, those seem to work fine in DS4 (on V4 that is)

I still have the oldest head (as I like the grown-up ladylike look of it) and the second version. Both work fine - and so I want to make sure that I add the new face as a third option as to me the three look like sisters of different age and character. Good to hear that I can install them all without destroying one. And yes, using two of them together does bizarre things, I already did this by accident ;)

Works fine in DS3 as well...  (tried all bonus morphs, and loaded the glasses, in both cases)

sweet, thank you both.

so i can put works in D|S (except for Poser 9 SSS shaders) - in the product requirements?

^yeah i wasnt expecting those to work at all, since theyre 100% opaque and rely on the refract node to look right. incidentally, in Poser if there is nothing behind the glasses (such as rendering a figure with no background), then the parts of the lens without the figure's face behind them will render black. the refract node needs something behind it to refract.

theres a second 'failsafe' pair of the glasses with standard transparency for the lens that should work in DS.

im sure both could be further tweaked, but im starting to find out that glass is the most frustrating thing to get to look right in Poser :P

Quote - im not sure if i will be issuing similar updates for my Gen II characters, but im thinking about it.  so much to do, so little time :(

The Gen II aren't in my collection, but I would definately buy them if you did an update.

OH my lord! 50% off!??!  How can I not?!   I still adore my V3 "lora croft style" lady... but this... but hey... CLOTHES!?   I mean, you really must want me to do nudes for the first time in my life, right!? grin  teasing you...

um... what is the "carrara inj's. zip" ? I have Carrara but humans look terrible in it..and it's tooo slow... but am curious.. especially when the zip says UNSUPPORTED! LOL!

Really - DO V4 clothes fit her?  I just bought CrossDresser too...but there is no GND help there... should I ask them to do one?

Anyway... I have now offically joined the updated GND club! ;)

Lyne

PS AND SORRY - GOING BACK THROUGH THE POSTS TO READ ABOUT THE CLOTHING ISSUES AFTER I WROTE THIS... WOOPS!

I think you can use Morphing Clothes Lyne...but that's another purchase ;). Laurie

And the best purchase any Poser user can make.

Thank you, sir. Once again you have blown my hobby budget, but in a nice way. Anastasia will have some company now. Now to see how well Morphing Clothes works on these new morphs. Maybe I can harass the folks at Poserworld to make some new items......

So does the Morphing clothes thing work and get a decent fit for GND4? One of my reasons for not getting her in the past was lack of clothes and no XD support (booooo!).

I've got GND2, Irina and GNDA and none of them have anything to wear other than Irina's bikini and dynamic draperies.

I do have Stormchaser which has GND4 fit, but I think that's all. I'm having a bit of trouble talking myself into this one actually :(

Quote - My wallet hates you, Blackhearted...But it's such a sweet, beautiful hate...

QFT. First I buy Anastasia despite having next to nothing to dress her in. Now, after years of resisting the beauty of GND4, you just made her too beautiful to resist. :( :P 

You hit it on the nose, Zaarin; I just bought the bimbo too! :lol:

Quote - I do have Stormchaser which has GND4 fit, but I think that's all. I'm having a bit of trouble talking myself into this one actually :(

ok come on now! there are at least 50+ clothing sets in the various marketplaces and freestuff that are either made specifically for GND or have GND fits included.  i cant help that merchants dont take the time to use product keywords and kitting properly.

OK, it's three minutes...

^not sure where youre getting that from, i just spent 15 min going through every single material and they are set to 'use gamma from render settings'.  you may have changed it yourself and not noticed?

what i did notice is that the eyelashes dont have gamma set to 1.0 -- so if you end up with sparse lashes while using gamma correction youll need to change the map in 6_Eyelash to use custom gamma value of 1.0. ill mark that for fixing in the next update.

toastie, are you saying YOU having nothing for those characters to wear, or attempting to make a statment that there is nothing in the market place for them? Right now I have 2 products in the market place that can be used with GND4 and up until a short while ago i hade a set in there for Irina that was even in clearence, admittedly it;s gone from the store now but I assume you didn;t just buy Irina.

I have no idea why you are attepting to say there are no clothing for these characters. There are even a good number of clothing fits for various items in FREESTUFF. Admittedly Anastasia has a bit of a space wardrobe right now, a lot of us are trying to fix that, but for myself, I want to produce the bast product posiible with my limited talent and time, and the art of learning to get the best out of the new weightmapping has taken more time to learn than I originally planned..

If this is just because you, yourself don;t have clothing in your runtime for the characters, or can;t afford to buy any of the large number of available commercial clothing items for them you should make that clear rather than give a false impression about the usability of these characters to others.

I routinely use the changegamma script to correct transparency and bump maps after loading everything, so perhaps a glitch changed the setting on the limb map to 1.0.  It was an easy enough fix.  I'll try it out later on a normal Vicky...

Quote - Now, after years of resisting the beauty of GND4, you just made her too beautiful to resist. :( :P

She has just entered my runtime too. She is gorgeous!

I wish I could afford her! She'll be an awesome upgrade for Victoria! Oh well... Some day maybe! :'(

Nice work and thankyou very much!

Well I needed it anyway for other characters, so I bought Cross Dresser, and tho it does not have a GND, I read the posts here, so I will be fixing her up with clothes that have many morphs built into them... I am ok with "hand dialing" clothes to fit bodies...

Tho she is very tempting to do a nude... grin! blush

.... and also doing the "treasure hunt" in the market place for clothing for fits for her... the RMP search engine has problems...known that for years... hopefully they will fix it... people talk about it all the time in the Community or MarketPlace support forum.

Best,

Lyne

I will make you a deal:

I will trade you GND4 for a hand-drawn MS Paint picture of a pug fighting a unicorn on a mountaintop.  the pug should be of the golden variety, as pictured above.

if you choose to decline, the offer passes on to the first person who produces such a drawing, posts it in their gallery and links it in this thread.

Hey you all who want clothes for her! I went to freestuff and just put in GND4...and I found a wonderful site FREE TO REGISTER with MANY fits for clothes! Now I will buy clothes that has her fits! How cool is that!?  I am not going to put her direct link here, because I am sure it needs to be in FREESTUFF forum...but go look! :))

um I just found this product:

http://www.renderosity.com/mod/bcs/index.php?ViewProduct=79419

so am wondering if I need it for my brand new GND 4.2 ?  OR - if my PERFECT V4 fixes I already bought for my reg V4 would work on GND?

what is your opinion Blackhearted?

thanks!

^you could use the morphing tool to fix any joint issues on the fly, in seconds, on any character, for free :)

Or you can add the gnd4 morph to clothing with the use of my GND4 Magnet set, which gives you more control over the end result

Sorry to be crass and post a commercial offsite link .... but er .. this magnet set is sold at my own site directly.

http://www.cyclopsstudio.net/

As soon as I get the new files I will be adding any new GND4 morphs to the magnet set

BH

I'm glad you decided to revists GND4, she looks great. I know so many people love this morph, its nice to see her with spiffy new materials.

Lyrra

Just a reminder that Mint was gracious enough to make her Highlander available for free ;). It's in freestuff here and there's a GND4 fit for it on that page that Lyne linked to :). Laurie

That has got to be one of the coolest trades I have seen!  :-)

@Lyne

Hi sweetie thanks for the info about  freestuff. I bet I also already have a lot of clothes with morphs for GND4 already in my runtime.

thanks!

GND4, being more anatomically correct IMO, has some built-in fixes.  My experience is that, at the default values, the Perfect series does not go perfectly well with her in some poses, particularly around the knees (because GND knees are very nicely sculpted -- and the Perfect series is designed for V4's prematurely swollen and arthritic joints). You probably need to dial down the values.  If you're so inclined, you can then pull out the morph brush and touch up the few areas that remain.

ETA: I didn't realize Corvas had made a shoulder fix specifically for GND. I've been using his V4 one all this time. I actually haven't tested the Perfect shoulder fix on GND.

Hey! I never said anything about there being no clothes for GND4!

I said I don't have any clothes for GND4. The reason for this being that I don't own GND4!

:cursing:

 Amazing update! Thank you very much for making it free - quite generous of you. Plus the first timers get it 50% off, awesome work all around.

Phoenix1966 has a tonne of fits in sharecg,

Think this is his/her private site with lots on although its a reg site

I'm afraid I don't have MS Paint because I removed it to make room for more Poser things. :-/

I do have Photoshop though, so I hope this will suffice. Here is a hand drawn Photoshop picture of a pug fighting a unicorn on a mountaintop. Thankyou for the inspiration, lol!

^wow that is awesome, i wasnt expecting something so polished and artistic  :P

pm incoming :)

Love it!

That's great charly! LOL Laurie

Lol, haa thankyou, I'm shocked that you think it's so good to be honest! Blushes I'm really quite rubbish with a blank canvas; photo manipulation and post work on renders is all well and good, but I don't normally do stuff like this. Hah, aww, thankyou so much! :'D

Congrats...hehe. Laurie

Trying out morphing clothes, and when I inject the !BODY_INJ.pz2 for GND4.2, I get a "Some script calls were not resolved. Continue?" ,dialog.

The GND morph does not show up in the list...as a result, even if I continue.

Any ideas what this may be from, or if there are Morphing Clothes "logs" that I can gather and send to Ralph?

(I sent a site-mail to D3D)  Anyone else try this yet?  Am I the first?

Maybe apply the INJ, then save her back to the library, and use Morphing Clothes with the .cr2? (I never used it, I do not know how it works ;)

OK, thats an idea, Ill give it a shot.

UPDATE:  Seems to work, thanks!  Trying it out on an outfit now.

Laurie mentioned Morphing Clothes: It's well worth the money!! I use it all the time to fit clothes to custom body morphs (and there are sooo many custom tweaks and enhancements available in these days!) - and it is not limited to Victoria!

About your question: Right - you save GND to your character library, load her to mrohing clothes and click all her morphs in a list. Then save this to the presets so that you can choose the GND-morphs with one click next time. That's all.

She makes a nice Lara! (click for bigger)

I feel a little dense because I've actually never gotten an update for anything I've purchased from this store.  So I did go to the marketplace - find GND4 and went to add her to my cart because I assumed the update DL would come that way.  Then it tells me "tough cookies, you already own this" - yeah I know so give me the update.  Well it wouldn't.

So I went and searched through all my past orders (gosh I wish there was an easier way to do that) and found it.

I just re-downloaded the zips from there.  Is that the correct way to get the updated zips?  

Yeah, the updates show up in your account history. At least they have a search in there or I'd never find anything....lol. Laurie

err I sure do wish I would have noticed a "search" function.  All I could do was say "Ok, it has to be an order over $20."  :p

*edit - found the search, at the bottom.  Thanks for the tip about that, now at least I'll never have to do it the hard way again.

To check for updates:-

Select the Members tab, My Account option.

Now select Item list.

Click the downwards pointing triangle at the end of Sort by Vendor.

Move down the list until you see:-

Blackhearted

Select the Go button.

You will now see the items by Blackhearted that you have bought.

Look for the GND4 Athletic files.

At the end of the line, you should see a date on which they have been updated.

If you have downloaded before that date, then the new updated files are of use to you, so download and install.

All the best.

LROG

It is even easier: Go to your Account, click the Item list and click on "Updated?" - and everything is sorted from the most recent to the oldest Update. By comparing the purchase date against the date of the update you can see if you have the most recent version (as long as you did not download the update before).
