Quote - Question for the glass experts. I'm trying something a little different and want to get a window pane for detective's office to read his title and name. I've tried a few approaches to get the texture nice and readable, but now it's reflecting within the glass pane and reads like it is both forward and backward. I'll put up a pic when it gets a little farther on this attempt.

Would an alpha map on the window help separate things?

The cool thing about REALITY is it works like the real world. A sign on a Detective's door in the real world would be painted-on letters one side and/or stickied-on one side. Your letters should be on a separate plane (1 pixel distance) from the "glass" and ALpha mapped and that should solve your problem. And try "architectural glass" if you haven't already.

did we get an answer for which chairs those were?

If you use Reality plugin with DS, you can select your target (i.e. right eye for example) for DOF in the scene tab, and then it will calculate the correct DOF for the camera and export the info to LUX for rendering. Move the camera or the subject and it will do the calculation automatically.

Thankyou for the archive link.

I buy alot of products and occassionally pick up some items at Sharecg freebies. I haven't experienced that problem, but admittedly I do have my runtimes in the default locations. So perhaps it is a file path issue. I have both Poser8 and DS3A and DS4pro installed, and I point DS directories to the Poser runtimes for content. No problems. :-)

Why do you need the M4 Bodysuit, especially twice????

All the best.

When I looked at Aidan's product page, the required product was Draconian Warcow, I snapped a screen, but I don't know how to upload images here.

Both DS3 advanced and Poser 8

If your doing a web comic (or similar type project)  you'll be looking for content. I don't know if that's an addiction as much as a time cost of doing business (even if its unpaid work). 

A very observant list of lessons learned.

Quote - Sometimes when I am working in Poser, my wife will walk past me and look at my screen and say...

"looking at naked women again, huh?"

We laugh and I go back to my work.

I've been there!

Quote - A lot of work has been done to get color printers easier to use and with less calibration required than in the old days. Its a two part problem, the first is will your screen acurately display the image file, and that can be addressed with a color calibration image or device. The second is will your printer acurately print your image, so that what you see onscreen is what you get on print.

I print small pics at walmart, they use a dye sublimation printer for the prints and that will let you see how closely your screen is set. Its also pretty cheap. less than 20 cents a pic .

That is a good idea.  And having your monitor set right will be the most important factor in getting what you want. 

Daz3D.com has a big store full of options.

I still have my 486 DX when I need to get nostalgic.  It even has the shareware version of Doom on it to help feel my age.

any decent images of them in renders?
