No problems ?

Afrodite's latest render is amazing ?

Thank you all!

I decided to revisit Evilinnocence's Crossdresser application to research how efficient it is for converting outfits from one model to another. To my amazement, it is truly a very powerful program for refitting old content to current figures. In the image below rendered in P12 Superfly, I converted a V3 outfit and V4 hairpiece to fit Miki 3, converted all the props and figures to Superfly material using EZSkin3, Cycles, and PBR to create this incredible scene. Since I haven't gallery posted in a very long time, I might just throw this one up this weekend. Enjoy.

Sorry for a second post the same day, but I've just tested Ghostship's excellent materials: awesome

Take a look here

been a while since I posted anything here. Her is one of my tests for my new light set.

I made a raytracing demo in a dress.

Did you used some SSS effects on her hair? I've stumbled upon the same effect, and I had to avoid it, so that I hadn't that weird orange color above her eyes and on her cheeks

It's the hair BSDF node set to transmissive. Not sure if that does any scattering, but I wouldn't be too surprised. Probably best to avoid that node in the future for trans-mapped hair then. I liked the way the hair itself looked and didn't mind the orange glow too much, but now that you mention it...

The hair BSDF and the principled hair BSDF nodes are for dynamic hair rather than transmapped

Makes sense. To be honest, I'm a bit embarrassed that I didn't realize that right away.

I have to say that not all transmapped react this way, but I don't have the technical knowledge to explain why. But 2, 3 years ago I stumbled upon a material setting involving the PoserSurface node, plus the correspnoding scatter and anisotropic nodes. And from time to time, I have to avoid the scatter node precisely. For now, I haven't been satisfied using Cycles and transmapped hairs.

started work on a second set of shaders for the marketplace today. Suede, Velvet and Corduroy set up. This is the Corduroy.

Loving it!! You don't see Corduroy very often, so will definitely be a must-have.

used to ware corduroy pants all the time when I was a kid. I think they were cheaper for my parents to buy than jeans. Here is the velvet and suede

Oh these are looking great too!

I also had corduroy pants when I was a teenager, and IIRC, there was a matching vest. My mother was a professional seamstress, so she made all my clothes until I was in college and working.

I'll buy that when it's ready...

I don't know if there's a way to package up your P12 hair shader, maybe a plug-in to ezskin? But something to quickly convert old transmapped hair textures. I do it manually all the time now. That would be useful too.

Those are looking great, ghostship2.

Definitely awesome ❤

Watch out, someone's angry. xD

someone on the old SM forum made a plugin for my hair. I think the user was Amethystpendant but not sure if they are on this forum. It was set up for P11 and probably needs a shader update for 12.

Speaking of SAV's Marina Hair: it inspired me this picture:

The background is built using Afrodite-Ohki's LevelUp Superfly items, with Ghostship2's materials... So much fun with both.... ❤

I'm so used to using Marina Hair with a blonde texture, that I never recognize it in any other color.

Not my usual stuff

She makes me think to Amy Winehouse ❤

Whoa! Ohki's gals are hanging out!!!

Just a simple and quick render of an older figure: Simon G2 from Poser 7, brought into Poser 12 and rendered in Superfly. Skin is cyllan's Simon and James MR ran through EZSkin3. EZDome, one sun light.

L'homme in a Superfly render

Afrodite Ohki's Anuli & Maiara Hair, highlighted by Ghostship2's lighting ❤❤❤

Dawn with Afrodite Ohki's Taiana Hair and lighting from Level Up Superfly 

Decided to re-visit my hair shader and also create some maps for it. This will be part of my next MR mat pack.

Oh I missed some great images here!

@Y-Phil maybe next time try playing with that hair's posing! It can add a lot of movement to your render :)

@ghostship2 I can't wait to get my paws on that MR MHUAHAHAHA <3

And here, this is Renli'i, a character I made for roleplaying - thought she deserved her own gallery picture :)

Happy that volumes are working again and, much to my surprise, even Firefly atmosphere now works in Superfly.

love the ground fog / gas like to have that

The ground fog is just a Superfly volume. It is a little bit messy because it was a lot of trial and error to make it look like I wanted. The fog coming out of the shaft is just a clothified highres plane using the same volume (volumes does not need to be closed).

Just realized that my Poser 12 decided to mess up volumes again. Anybody else having the problem that volumes sometimes don´t work with P 12?

Is that second ScatterVolume on the lower-left meant to be completely detached?

Seems to be working for me with your node arrangement.

Thanks for the reply.

Seems like the cause is most likely my PC. (Ryzen7 1700x - GeForce GTX 1070 – Windows10), win and all drivers are up to date. After a reboot P12 rendered all volumes correct again. Maybe one of my other apps is messing with the GeForce driver.

It also could be that the windows updates are messing up something on my PC. After the update before the last one my P11 started to frequently crash. After the last win update P11 runs stable again.

For example, while I'm writing this response, Poser12, freshly opened, froze, with an empty scene,at the moment when I tried to close the program using the upper-right cross. I've filed a ticket at the support on Friday.

It may be one of the instabilities introduced with Poser12's last iterations (V619)
I mean, I have been working on a scene with "Shades of Vanilla Skye) during 2 days, and for whatever reasons, the third day, Poser12 crashed by simply re-opening the scene, or it crashed while starting the render

Actually P12 is running very stable for me, not a single crash so far. I really think the main problem is windows, drivers and other installed stuff. With my P11 most crashes happened when I delete something. But, like said, the crashes stopped with the last windows update.

The only “freezing” problem I have with P12 is when P12 throws some system message, like a not found obj or if the file should be saved, and for some reason the Poser, or only preview window, is put upfront so the message window becomes inaccessible. Sometimes it helps to minimize and maximize the Poser window, but in most cases the only way out I found so far is killing P12 using the task manager.
