Has DS scanned the folder for content?

It usually does that when you go to the RENDER section of DS..
Then it ask... Do you want to scan for new content?.. Then you have to click yes..

After that incident..it add the content to the database..

Just a thought... it don't say anywhere if you did that?

Best wishes

My use of the term "Tiny Tot" was to cover young children.
Don't know the age range but 18 is probably the upper limit.
There are concerned parents who worry about their kids and what they see on the internet.
Can't fault them for their concerns. I don't like the folks who use these concerns as a springboard to fame.

Well if Renderosity is flodded with kids it's more than understandable that the rules are as they are. But even kids are potential customers. If they beg their parents, and kids do.
I guess the parents would buy what the kids want. So i can understand that it would be a shame to loose the huge amount of money parents spend on their kids.
Money is money after all :)

But with all the revealing clothes and sexy underwear in the vendors, it was my impression that Renderosity was not a place for children. Im actually surprised that people below 18 is allowed here at all.

Not sure that the Prudery will be fixable here in the US, maybe 20 or 10 years ago but not now.
The pendulum is swinging back the other way. In the 50's people were more optimistic about science but now its a different story. Too many busybodies and Folks that want control here.

Control... strange that worldwide politicians havn't learned yet that people can't be controlled.
The more politicians try to control people the worse things get.
But unfortunately our terrible government lead by the fascist Anders Fogh Rasmussen throughout the last 7 years is control freaks too. Violence and crime has really gotten worse in the last 7 years i Denmark. The more rules and laws they make, the worse things get here.
Too bad.

Why not make a simple system where people click in their profile "I dont want to se ANY nudity at all"? And when artists upload a picture and a thumbnail, AND tag the upload nudity.
The upload SIMPLY dont show to those who has tagged their profile with the "I dont want to see ANY nudity at all" tag?

Why not make it simple? The excisting low-IQ censorship system makes fools of people.
Especially the thumbnail. They are so small that noone can see any details on them anyway.

Quote - "
Why should people be nude or half nude to sell non sex related items?
"

That would be good but some folks are going to not follow the rules.
You can bank on it.

True people won't follow the rules. Modertors would be unemployed if the did :)

But it would protect the kids and the prudes much better, if art tagged with "nudity" did NOT show in their browser at all.

And if prudes feel harm by seeing nudity.
WHY even show them a icon saying CONTENT ADVISORY.. DONT LOOK HERE.. NUDITY IS RIGHT BEHIND THIS ICON.

Why?

If they have selected in their Renderosity interface, "Dont show me nudity".
Why not filter all Nudity and Violence, so they dont see it?

Then the only stuff that would show in their web browser would be..
Old cars, landscapes, flowers, child photos, and soft stuff like that.

Then everyone would be happy. And the moderators would have an easier life.

Unless of course prudes are more worried about their neighbor(that ole swine) is watching it :)

Quote - "

Have to cover their butts from being attacked by the protectors of tiny tots everywhere.
Some of the protectors actually care but a lot are in for the glory and fame.
"

I do not understand what you are trying to tell here. Maybe caused by lack of
lingual knowledge?
Protectors of tiny tots? What is that? Is it some slang?

Tots = children or 'babes in arms' or infants
Tiny Tots = even smaller, younger versions ...

I think that what SevenOfEleven meant is that some sites (such as renderosity) are
under pressure to conform to 'safety standards' that are supposed to protect children.

Hi Martin

And thanks for helping me out on this one.

But its my impression that renderosity is a website for adults isn't it?

Or am i all wrong?

Is this place flodded with children/kid users ?

I need to get some kind of definition on the tot thing..

How old is a Tot?

How old is a Tiny Tot?

Art is about expressing emotions, impressions or feelings.
It has nothing to do with selling things, money or sex.
Nude people and Sex isn't necessarily related. Except for those with a twisted mind.
Nudity has been used in beautiful artwork all over the world for centuries. > Quote -

Is it really prudery or are people tired of companies using sex to sell items?

Now THAT would be a place to start for american censorship wouldn't it? > Quote -

Is it such a great and wonderous thing to see someone use naked or half naked folks to sell assorted items?

What im talking about here is art. Not merchantship of the commercial world.
Because there are a half naked woman in a male-underwear commercial never made me buy the stuff. But truely enough many men have their brain below the belt. If you are a man, nude women are beautiful... if you are a woman.. nude men are beautiful
If you are gay(which can be legally married in Denmark) there can be some sort of mix of what you find beautiful.

Quote -
Big whoop that some countries use nude people to sell stuff, its not "pushing the envelope", its getting the buck or Euro or Yen. At the end of the day you will want to skip past it to watch the real content.

Well.. once again. im talking about expressing artistic impressions. Not the nudity in commercials. > Quote -

What are the roots of the prudery?
Is it Satan (lol) or Religion?
How do we fix this problem?
Is it even fixable?

It's been said that a prude is someone who's never got over the shame of having been born between thethighs of a naked woman :)

Well as for religion i can only speak from a danish point view.  Religion is secondary in Denmark. Freedom of speech comes above it all. Fixable.. yes the day people start to see and accept themselves as they really are.
And stop seeing themselves like they THINK their neighbours want them to be seen.

Quote -
Aside:
When someone mentions "Free speech". I want to laugh a lot.
Do you want to say anything you wish or only the stuff that makes sense?
I bet that "Free speech" has limits in a civil society.

Yeah we can laugh of it all haha. Laughter is healthy :)
Well in Denmark we are, by law protection, allowed to say what we think. And it has been that way for more than 150 years. I would call that freedom of speech. The danish prime-minister Anders Fogh Rasmussen is a foolish puppy running after Bush.
If i want to, i can write that in the news papers and say it on television, I can even make a render of both of them and publish it on my website without any studpid censorship interferes. And if i wanted to, it could be a nude render. No problem there.

In america i heard.. people are afraid of politicians.
In Europe its the other way around. Politicians are afraid of the people. Because they are free to say what they really think.

Hiya

Im sick and tired of Daz3d and Renderosity. They really make me furious.
They delete my gallery posts 3 times a day. Eveytime they see 1 inch of naked skin..
DANG.. delete it as fast as they can. LOL.

In the end its the poor vendors paying for that kind of work i bet.

I really start to think.. is americans born in a full suit and completely without genitals?
Or do the simply hate their own body?

I simply dont understand why all this censorship is here.
Is it about making people feel bad about all that is pure and natural?

Do someone want to explain it to me?

We were born naked... and when our time is up, we have to leave this earth, we will leave it naked too...

Can anyone recommend other good gallery sites, of which i can be absolutely certain that the gallery server isn't placed in a location where US/american censorship rules apply?

I know of Renderotica and Raunchyminds. But they are pretty porn oriented.

I just need something in between. A place where the audience dont choke in their coffe if they see a naked breast or a naked buttock.

There must be a lot of europeans feeling like i do.?

Where do they move their galleries to?

Quote - Having lived in Japan, Hong Kong, and traveling over a large part of Europe and a few other places, it constantly amazes me that America is so tight assed and prudish that nudity bothers ANYONE. Go to Europe and you'll see nudity on TV and in commercials and casual nudity in many places. They simply don't concern themselves with it. But America has this obsession with the concept that nudity is 'dirty' and will cause the complete downfall of modern civilization. I mean, man, get over it.

Quote - Hi there,

I think the easiest way to make a mat pose is to grab one that for the figure you are working with and replace textures with yours.

Just find the texture name in the pz2 file:
[code]         textureMap "RuntimetexturesTexture folder nameTexture_name.jpg"
 [/code]

Got to the find/replace option in your editing programs and replace it with the texture you want to go in place of it.

It only takes a little while and it helps you find the parts of the body in the pz2.

Hiya  and thanks for the reply I found a little utility script at Daz forum called "Poser MATexporter for Daz Studio" .
Of what people write its almost the same as a util called ShaderSpider for Poser.

Poser Mat exporter for D|S works fine and is easy to work with as soon as one learn to select the surfaces 

I export the MAT from a excisting character in P5 format(PZ2 file).
It has a P6 export format too called *.MC6, but i have a feeling that D|S might not like that format.
So i use P5 PZ2 format.

Its still my goal to make it all happen from a 1 click CR2 file.

The CR2 file now looks like this:

Code:
{
   version
   {
      number 4.01
   }
   readScript ":Runtime:libraries:Character:DAZ People:Victoria 4.2.cr2"
   readScript ":Runtime:libraries:!DAZ:Victoria 4:Deltas:InjDeltas.V4Morphs++All.pz2"
   readScript ":Runtime:libraries:!DAZ:Victoria 4:Deltas:InjDeltas.MuscleAll.pz2"
   readScript ":Runtime:libraries:Pose:Julla:MYTOON.pz2"
  
   readScript ":Runtime:libraries:Pose:Julla:MYMAT_P5.pz2"
}
 

"Mytoon.pz2"(the custom character) is applied fine(IF i add a ":1" at the end of each line starting with Actor, in th PZ2)

BUT...

MYMAT_P5.pz2(the texture for thee character)... will not apply using readScript.

But it works fine if i apply it manually.

SOSO... i examined the "MYMAT_P5.pz2" in a text editor.
But ...There is no lines with the "Actor" tag in it.
So nowhere to apply a ":1".....

But i bet its almost the same type of problem.

So the question is......

What does the "Poser Mat exporter for DS" forget to put in it's PZ2 file?

To make i work by calling the PZ2 from within a CR2, using readScript command???? 

Is there some kinda of reference similar to ":1" that could be essential for it to work?

Quote - > Quote - Yes it IS a Daz thing.

Are you a Poser or D|S user?  "Poser format exporter" is a utility for D|S
Maybe thats the difference about your INJ working without ":1" ?

That Daz "Poser format export" utility for D|S should add it i think. But it dont

Yes I am a Poser user that's why I didn't think the one would matter.

I checked out your character face in your gallery and she is quite pretty...she has a very interesting face with a lot of character. Congrats on getting her to work in one click :)

Eshal

But its my own fault :) I posted this in a Poser forum, since i have a feeling there are more poser user than Daz users... not sure im right about that... but its a feeling.

And thanks to this thread.. yes one click haha.. its great i think.

Yes she has a lot of personality... maybe not the most beautiful face in the world... but very very special. Even if she is 45yo now. She still has IT ...haha.

Quote - Look at the old posts (in Poser tech forum) concerning readscript for V3.  The best way to put out pz2's is without :1, as this allows multiple characters to be staged without crossover effects.  But the :1 has to be removed from everything.  True without :1 then you do need to select the character first (how else is Poser to know which character? - well should be obvious if only 1 but we're talking Poser here ;-)) but as pointed out this is unlikely to be the problem here.  I suspect the problem is that Daz is still putting :1 into their characters, morphs, etc., so you need it in the pz2 file.  If all the numbers are missing, then Poser will use the default number assigned when the character is loaded, 1st = 1, 2nd = 2, etc., and the pz2 file can be blank and it will apply to last character selected - the way Poser worked back when readscript was invented - Poser 3 or 4 probably.

Hiya

But "Poser format exporter" which generated my PZ2 file, from withing Daz Studio...is a utility, to install in Daz Studio, even written by Daz. So if Daz has a ":1" in their chars, the utility to support the chars should generate a ":1" too i thk.

Do people use that utility for Poser 4-7 at all? Do it work in Poser 4-7 at all?

   Yes, I am interested in the same info that you are. I am glad you posted that question.

Hiya Lulu

Since i know you would want this information.

The problem is solved thanks to the hardworking people in this thread ;)

She is posted in my gallery if you wanna see her:
http://www.renderosity.com/mod/gallery/index.php?image_id=1622184

The only small thing missing in the PZ2 file was a ":1" missing by the end of every line that has the word Actor in it.

A small but fatal difference.

They ought to correct it in Poser format exporter for D|S i thk.
Since my PZ2 file was generated with that utility.
