SWT dForce Dynamic Chains Merchant Resource To be used with Iray. Can be used with or without dForce. -------------------------------- This product, SWTrium dForce Dynamic Chains Merchant Resource, is a very diverse Merchant Resource kit which provides three chain presets of 10 links, 50 links and 100 links to use with multiple chain shapes and multiple texture options to create many...Many versatile chain combinations. This product has been created solely to provide Daz Studio users an option of using dForce simulation-ready chains in their scenes and other products, which I felt was a missing link (no pun intended) in Daz Studio. Since anyone who uses dForce knows that it is not at all easy to use with any solid models, like for example chains, I have created this method which will allow anyone to use solid chains inside Daz Studio without having to bring in any other software suite to employ the dynamic simulation effects. This product does not require very advanced knowledge of the software, anyone can skim through the simple tutorial and they will be good-to-go for using these dForce Dynamic Chains in all of their Daz Studio scenes and/or adding it to any other existing models in their library. Some deeper knowledge of Daz Studio might be required for those using these as Merchant Resource building-blocks in their own original products, and tutorials have been provided to help all of you out on that front as well. As seen in the product's promo video, the chains collide with everything from Daz Studio primitives to Genesis models to environment meshes and anything in between that has any real geometry present. Multiple dForce simulation material presets have also been provided for fine tuning the collisions, flexibility and various other dynamic factors. Moreover, all the chains and presets provided here can be used with or without dForce simulations to great effect. You can also use you own original/custom chain-link crafted inside Daz Studio from a primitive or in an external modelling program with great ease (the tutorial documents cover this as well). There are provisions to alter the shape and texture of every single link individually or as a whole using either separate 4k HD resolution mapping or combined 4k UV maps. There are also options of adding additional detail on each link (like dirt, rust, etc.) via additional geoshells as well as LIE options to quickly change the texture colors. Finally, since this is a Merchant Resource you will be able to use any portions of this product in your own commercial products. Please read through the Merchant Resource Agreement document provided with this product and understand the terms of using this in all of your original creations that you would wish to sell on any marketplace. ---------- The product promos shown here have been created fully inside the current public release build of DS Pro 4.12 using Iray.
