OMG!!!! Fixed it!!! Everything was right under DAZ3D directory, which was an associated library under Poser. Then went through Poser content folder by folder. I Found an older "!DAZ" folder under the POSER Runtime directory that had V4 stuff in it. Off by itself. Not under library or anything. A legacy folder from an old installation. Deleted it and got this YAY!!!

humm not off hand I found those ideas by googling A4 eye issues :(

Yep, That's what I had found as well even de-installed and reinstalled V4 and Aiko 4...no change

Also check to see if V4 is installed more than once an article I found in Daz forums said that causes this prob also. They said search for duplicate copies of V4 CR2 or Runtimelibraries!DAZVictoria 4 folder in your content directories.

Ran the file. Searched for alternate Victoria 4. CR2 on all drives. nothing. Even removed the V4 to V3 convertors on th off chance they are part of the problem.

Any other ideas?

Might work, but would have to have a set-up a dot for every function with a pop up.

And resetting to factory is a pain. Would be better if they fixed the program to work like other programs that migrate back to original screen when 2nd/3rs screens disconnected.

Will do. Rebooted. Loaded different project , then the problem child project, and it seemed to fix.

Here I am again...same old "Library fix" suggestion : Let me add up to 6 hashtags to a product to search and sort by in the library, so I can do refined "Project based" search.

Mostly because that's how my brain works. So if I buy a prop for a project I have in mind in the future, I can hashtag it right when I load it. I buy a cool looking blaster. Right when I move it to the library, I hashtag it #SciFi #Weapon #Handgun #Cybergirl (Leaving me two more spaces). I can then go through my library, or when I find something II forgot I had, and tag other items with the #Cybergirl tag. When I am ready to do my #Cybergirl project, I search by hashtag Cybergirl. BAM!! everything I was going to use , or thought I would use, is right there in that search.

Also, in the library, I'd like a "Where used" drop down for products when I mouse over (And searchable by same "Where used" option). later on, when I am trying to find a product: "I need that one sky...like the one the skydome I used for in my cybergirl city project...", so in the library I can lookup the project name and see all of the poses, figures, lights, prop's etc used in an older project...without opening the old project and scrolling through everything (Which I probably renamed anyway).

So Hashtag use on the front end (The wish-list as I think about the project) and "where used" for stuff that actually got used.

I think this speeds up use and function in the library.

More info that might help: Okay, this is rough, but goes the direction. They look like a fat-Slug evolved into a Biped. Belly area is lighter through throat area up to lower lip, as is underside of tail.

Head, Back, arms, legs have same darker mottled texture/color as top of tail

Can have 3 fingers and thumb or four fingers and thumb, whichever is easier. Webbed hands if possible. Squat legs (thick). Thick tail with rounded end, should contact the ground to drag/slither (leaving slime trial) as they move.

Snout/mouth can extend out more than pictured in final model. The idea is they have a quad lip arrangement that "Folds" inward, but bulges outward when they pass their saliva to other creatures by cover the victims mouth with theirs. It's an addictive drug they make internally). The female version has a wider tail and rounder head than the male (If you want to go that far)

Does this provide enough info to work from? Time estimate? Cost? Exclusive vs. non-exclusive?

When a person has five to ten things going on at once, each one as important as the other, but someone needs a question answered quickly to get something done, there is not enough time to narrate, speak, pause, highlight, explain, and demonstrate positive and negative on a given feature.

Such was the reason that was done the way it was.

You're welcome.

What I read: " Hi, we are product creators and deeply involved with a new figure that we want you to invest hundreds of dollars and hours in. But, because we are busy, rather than put some thought and effort into the sites LEAD-IN Promotional video when people search for La Femme, that should show them why this figure is the next level of cool, we slapped together this quickie video. They should appreciate that we made the effort at all and just toss us money and buy our products...because you know...They're welcome.

And, because they questioned that, even though we want them to spend hundreds of dollars and hundreds of hours using this new figure and our products, we're going to snark back "You're welcome" rather than look at the video and say "Huh....that really doesn't show what we intended in a good light to the hundreds (Thousands) of potential new customers that need to see how cool and easy this product can be using these new features I flicked through. We (the team) should probably put something together that really shows that so MORE people grab on to it."

Thank you for the clarification...I guess.

Wow. What is this video supposed to be showing or instructing?

Tried to follow the bouncing mouse as the instructor does...what ????. And then the text changes...maybe, since it's in the middle of the video play progress bar, it's hard to tell.

Seriously...narrate (speak). Pause, highlight. Explain, demonstrate positive and negative on given feature, then use Text (not in play bar) to reaffirm. Move to next feature/point.

So Task Manager -> Performace Tab. Go to GPU. Select Compute_0 from the drop-down menus on one of the graphs.

Render Superfly. Set renderer to the GTX 1070 ti. Compute_0 graph is hitting 98% to 99% and is rendering nearly twice as fast as my Intel i5-6500 3.2Ghz

My board can take an i7, so that might change things if I decide to update.

Are you using Poser Pro? And is the card the only graphic capability in your PC (no Motherboard onboard chipset)?

That was quick. Thank you!

Rookie question here. Great Thread.

Looking over the Graphic card models in this thread, they can be pricey and snagged up by Data Miners.

Some of the "older"/ "tuned down" cards can be bought for less (Along with a multi card tower), but is there some firmware/driver compatibility or Minimum requirement to use (With benefits)? Example, the GeForce GTX 1050 Ti can be gotten readily, but are they going to be compatible (drivers,etc) to handle the Superfly renders?

IS there a Driver/software version/ Chipset I should look for to disqualify a card from the list?

I have same problem I just stay the old firefly until some an correctly fix this problem or a clearer way fixing it. New firefly is not much difference over the one.

Download and install the EzSkin3 tool (Plugin). It does work and relatively easily. Superfly renders so much faster and better than Firefly. It's worth it.

Thank you. That helps me understand a little more.

is there an ezskin3 tutorial? Something that helps me understand WHY specific nodes (and node orders) drive Superfly nuts (Semi-novice level)
