Thanks very much guys!

@hborre
Okay, cool so I need to have a runtime already in there. That makes things a lot clearer. Thanks! :)

@**kenmo
Doh... I proabaly should have seen this. Typical me... who just rushed into things. :) Thanks for providing me a link.

Wow... that was quick! :)

Many thanks for taking the time to answer my question.

I hope you don't mind me asking a little further. :) So do I just use the "add library" icon folder and direct it to my daz content folder (or does it need to go to the Runtime Folder instead).

Also, if I reinstall My M4/V4 characters and outfits, etc. I presume on the install I tell it I want the poser format. Do they just go to the "daz content" folder to or do I have to redirect it to the "runtime" folder, or does it matter.

Again sorry for these silly questions, but I just can't wait to get going in poser now. :)

Incidentally, while I've had a good time using Daz3d I just can't believe how much easier it is to actually pose figures in Poser! (no pun intended).

Thanks for making my day,

Rob.

Many thanks for taking the time to help me out - I very much appreciate it.

Cheers,

R.

PS - Im just downloading Volg as we speak! :)

Hey madbat,

Many thanks for the info'... I love that figure, I'm off to purchase it now. :)

Thanks again!

Rob.

Cool... thats a good idea :). I'll have a look through and drop them on here on the forum.

Thanks again!

Hello again,

Thanks for all the advice! :) Yeah, I get what you are saying about avoiding characters that have not been tested, it makes perfect. What I was really trying to see if anyone had got some characters from here and had no real problems whit them in Daz - Just some character  recommendations really.

Cheers,

Rob.

Ah, right cool... Thanks mate. :)

Hi Half Dragon,

Many thanks for the quick response there... So in general, you can pretty much use any character as long as you veer away form the procedurals, etc?

Sorry for a follow up noon question, how do you adjust the bump/displacement maps, is that done in the surfaces tab?

Thanks again,

Rob.

Thanks man, I'll look into those options.

Cheers,

R.

Hey Sam,

Thanks again for all your advice - I'll keep my eyes peeled for the guys you mentioned now too. :)

Cheers,

R.

Thanks for chiming in guys. :)

I've actually been messing with Daz while I was waiting for my Poser Pro to arrive :). I have to say, it's been very interesting, as I was able to make some "okay" stuff right off the bat. And the level of customization is astonishing! The program is pretty easy to pick up, at the basic level anyway. However, I must admit I'm finding the folder structure a bit confusing tho', as I can't really find where some of my new content has gone even after I installed them - Gah! :(

My copy of Poser arrived today incidentally so I've been messing around with it too. There's definitely a learning curve with it (which I was aware of). One thing will say that I'm a tad disappointed with is it's instability. It keeps crashing... Virtually every time I try and render something. However, I may be doing something wrong or don't have something set up correctly. I'll install the latest service pack tomorrow and see how it goes. But for now it's back to DaZ for a bit. :)

Thanks!

Rob.

PS - You guys were right, it's bizarrely addictive, and  I think I might have to set up a platinum account now, thanks to the advice from AnAardvark.

Hi guys,

Just wanted to say thanks for taking the time to reply to my noob questions. With all your advise I purchased poser last night and a load of stuff from Daz.. I know that it will take a few months to get my head around the program but I hope to have a gallery up soon.

Thanks guys!

Rob.

Wow, it's that easy.... Cool!

Thanks,

R.

Thanks for answering **kyhighlander59. :)

Cool thanks for the advice. So how, if you don't mind me asking, do you get an M4 model with morphs into poser? I know theres an executable file for daz, but how will it work for poser?

Thanks,

R.
