Greetings,

I'm hoping to be able to edit multiple .duf files to change the cutout opacity of one or more material zones, but when I do a search for the cutout opacity the values all show as 1, even though I know the opacity is a fraction of that value, where do I find the right place to edit this outside of loading the file in DAZ Studio?

Sunfire

Setting is from 0..1.  0 is invisible, 1 is solid.  Value examples: .25, .3, .5 etc.  If the .dub is compressed, use the "Batch Convert" pane to uncompress.

Yes, I know the values. The problem I am having is I can't find any signs of the value being other than 1 even when I have the cutout opacity set to .6, this is in a text editor. Yet when I open the file in DS, i.e. apply it to whatever it is for, I can see that the cutout opacity is .6 in the same material. I just can't find the place where the correct value is located in the file in a text editor.

What I do is unzip the duf-file,  then open it in Notepad++, search for  e.g. "cutout opacity". This shows me all the places and values for it.

Yes, and all the values I find for it are set to 1, even in the material zones where I have it set lower.

The current values are in the aniamtions section, even though material proerpties are not animatable:

        "animations" : [
            {
                "url" : "name://@selection#materials/Default:?extra/studio_material_channels/channels/Cutout%20Opacity/value",
                "keys" : [ [ 0, 0.4927536 ] ]
            },
