Quote - Ladies and Gentlemen (drumroll), I submit for your perusal (appropriate brass band fanfare) the first full Reality/LuxRender shot from me that I've deemed good enough to put in my gallery.  Meet Stacey, a model I created off the Rani for V4 morph many moons ago and mistakenly let sit in mothballs.

Is she cold!?!? remind me not to go there on hols, looks a bit too nipply for me! hehe

Quote - > Quote - Ok ok, I'm kinda converted to Genesis, me being an idiot I didn't even recall that the PD Claudia set (my most used character) has Genesis morphs too! I must say, Genesis has so much more dial control than V4, I think I'm going to enjoy working with her, sorry Vikki 4.  Time to start playing with getting V4 clothes to fit.

Also just noticed I have Gen4 in on my hdd (bosses wife keeps buying me content/tools - even bought me Cararra 8 Pro!), just tried running it but it crashed transferring, need to play some more...

Abi.

Getting V4 clothes to fit is eezy peez

1.  Add your clothes to the scene

2.  When the autofit popup shows up(if it does) DON"T CLICK ANYTHING other than cancel.

3. Go to your scene tab and select the clothing article

4. Click on the menu button in the upper left of your scene screen and select Edit|Convert Figure to Weight Mapping|Convert to Triax Weight Mapping.

5.  Click on the menu button again and select Assets|Transfer Utility.

6.  On the left side of the next popup(Source side).. click the "Scene Item:" dropdown button and select Genesis.  Below that click the shape button and select clone.  There will be a list show up with all the shapes that genesis can clone.  Select the shape that the clothing was originally designed for.

7  On the right side of that screen (target side) click the dropdown box and select the item of clothing.

1.  Click on the "show options button" and make sure the first five boxes are checked and then check the box for "reverse source shape from target"

2.  Click Accept and let the transfer utility do its trick

if you have any poke-thru that you can't morph out of the clothes.. the smoothing modifier should eventually do it for you.. there are tutues are for the smoothing modifer that are better than what I can explain.

this is the best way i've found of doing it as it will retain all the original morphs and modifiers that the originally clothing had.  this is also the only way of retaining the morphs in gen4 hair as long as it's character hair and not prop hair

So no autofit!? I've tried using autofit a few times with mixed results, I'll have to give this method a try, thanks,

Abi.

Thanks for the tip, I'll have to call the bosses wife, she got it for me so she should have the order info.

I've used Genesis a few times when I got DS4 but since I'm a learner still I've not really tried using my v4 stuff with her much, I have the V4 for Genesis morphs but I've been keeping things simple by using V4 til I gain some know-how.

Abi.

Bob, yes it's V4, once its run some more I'll be using PS to fix a couple of bits too.  I really need to start using Genesis but I'll have to wait to get Gen x etc. so I can use the content I already have.

Abi.

Here is my latest incarnation, its actually just a quick test to see the outcome of a map modification (still new to DS, not done much modifications so I'm still learning/playing), the logo is from one of my favorite t-shirts, a gift after I had some "alterations" done.  Enjoy...

Whatcha think?

Abi.

P.s. Sorry if this image offends, I clicked the language advisory but I'm ne to Rendo's forums too so I'm not 100% sure if it does what I think it does.

Quote - Did a test on 'big'.. 2700 X 4500 px. Took 20 hours to render to 150 S/p. Full view is available in my DeviantArt account :)

The re-sized image is looking a lil' 'edgy'...

Are you sure thats not a photo!?!?  That is fantastic!

Abi.

Here is the second of the renders I'm happy with so far, same scene as before, different angle.  I've not tried any of the tips recieved yet as this was already running (can only upload 1 image per day to rendo Gallery!?).  Needs to run longer to remove noise under neck but I'm so impatient that I had to upload anyway.

Thanks for the tip (the work of yours that I've seen hints that you know what your talking about!), I'll give that a try

Abi.

Hi all, Been lurking on the daz forums for a while, finally posted in the new Reality thread then found out about this one, guess I'll look here instead - the Daz thread has tumbleweeds floating around!  here’s my latest render that I'm pleased with…
