News: Daz 2025 -ALPHA- has been released.
https://www.daz3d.com/blog/daz-studio-2025-alpha-release
Major complaints are viewport performance and various missing features.
Support for Filament has been added to MacOS version as well as filatoon.

Some anon created a cool character morph. Meet Quinn! https://mega(.)nz/file/rmZQWLKZ#lh4aluWj6drjfPLkW7FVAUVDaOZZqJfqjoAvsREDo7U

Post more Quinns!

This isn't a repost because technically this is an entirely new website.

I googled a bundle name I wanted to buy that never goes on sale out of curiosity and I found a chinese site full of mediafire links in the first 5 results. Are these links usually virus?

Use a VM if concerned. What bundle?

Tried making a Gwen Tennyson model, struggling with finding hair that is accurate to hers, this is close but its got a ponytail. The hairclip is difficult to apply right too.

>>1010807
I always imagined Quinn would be a in duck and cover third person shooter game with a parkour mechanic, like the game WET. What kind of game are you working on in Unreal btw? Also does anyone know how to optimize a daz model for games, im currently trying to put Quinn and rethawed and want everything on one texture map if that makes sense, im looking for any tutorials for blender.

>>1011334
the laziest way to get it all in one texture map is to use unreal's built in merger, which will take every map and combine them into one big atlas.

Has anyone used those cartoon-style models/shaders for the Genesis 9? In the store, they seem to be useful things for creating illusions, CGs in games, for example, but I'm tired of seeing things that look good in the DAZ store, but turn out to be useless when you're working with them.

>Is there a way to get filament in older versions of daz? Filatoon looks miles better than pwtoon for the ancient version of 3delight
Is there someone is producing things with Filatoon? I'm curious about the possibility of using those models to create sprites for games, but I couldn't find any decent examples on the Internet.

Why is the diffeomorphic shader set up in blender so pants on head retarded?
The body gets split into four different materials for literally no reason, making it much more of a pain to change anything. I find blender users are allergic to using udims in general for some reason.
Subsurf isnt using random walk and the scale values is completely off anyway so it's not doing anything except adding to render times
There are retarded attempts to add dual lobe specular nonsense instead of just using coat that's built into the principled shader
Everything is incredibly dark for no good reason so if you put the model in a properly calibrated scene it's completely fucked.

where can i get daz genitals for freeeeeeeee?

I want to make a render of something like this. There are several bottle props, but are any good water / fluid props?

>>1011470
>The body gets split into four different materials for literally no reason
Maybe the reason is because it is the same setup in DAZ?

>>1011494
shit's terrible.
funny thing is most daz textures already have udim tile numbers in the file names.

Asking again. How do I get rid of this giant chunk of space in the timeline? It takes up half of the timeline and i'm not even sure what it does. It won't let me minimize it anymore.
Also, how do I remove every frame in a timeline besides the first? I know there's a specific Save As that works but I can't remember which.

I don't know how to find something because I don't know what term to use. Human machine interface? I want to attach the upper half of a figure to some kind of stationary machine with the idea the upper half is being kept alive and/or controlled by the machine. What do I search for? Cybernetics?

>>1011897
Sounds like something you could kit bash easily. Just hide the surfaces of the lower body, add random tech junk parented to appropriate body parts and throw it all in a tube

What is the most updated guide to create morphs? I get the most of it (export the obj model, import it in blender, edit, save an obj with another name and import it again using morph loader). My problem is that I'm using some wrong settings because sometime a model is loaded in another pose or position in blender, other times I can't import it back in DAZ. I'm watching some tutorial on YT, but they are old and I don't see all the settings.

>>1011117 (OP)
Probably a stupid question, but does anyone know how to completely change the install directory for Daz3D?
I don't have enough storage on my main drive for Daz anymore, I've tried moving everything to a separate drive, tried uninstalling then reinstalling on a separate drive - while manually changing all the install destinations in the Daz install manager, but every time there will always be files that end up on my main drive, usually the ones that take up the most space, and in strange directories like in Roaming or Public Documents
Another issue I face is that when I do install on a different drive, it often can't properly read installed assets due to them being installed in the previously mentioned destinations and thinks they aren't installed properly
This is very poorly explained but that's mostly because I don't really understand what's happening myself, any advice?

>>1012252
With a prexisting install/libray things get very muddy. Daz will always instll the base program and related plugins to your primary drive.
Public Documents is where the llibaries get installed by default (your content, clothes, etc).
Add a new library, name and select your preferred destination for installs. Then remove the recommended/default library (see pic related).
As far as moving existing installs, its possible but you'll probably have to mess with reimporting metadata and what not. However, if your library is well curated you can just navigate to the product by memory. This is why I always suggest creating different library folders. At the very least for the different stores and a quarantine library for new freebies or content from shittier creators in case it automatically applies morphs across a generation. Just easier to track down that way.

>>1012305
not that guy, but i'm fucked lmao. i have a 600gb library, shit is all over the place, and the only way i find things is to use a program called everything and type something like "boot" or "jacket" to find what i want.

PLEASE help me get a working decimator for 4.22.
I've looked all over the forums. I think the available 1.4.2.118 version is supposed to work but the zip doesn't include a manual install. The installer can't find my path no matter what I try.
I either need a way to get the installer to work, or I just need the actual plugin file. I found an old forum post where it looks like someone hooked somebody else up with this file but the post with the file is gone or it was DM'd.
The newer decimator version doesn't seem to work with 4.22

>>1012252
I have my daz working on a different drive but I remember it was a huge pain to get working. And I started fresh. Good luck.

>>1012329
This is the way.
>>1012317
Just keep the old library on an external in case you find some things you can no longer download. Then manually pick through the runtime and people/props folder for all requirements. It's going to be a pain but once your library is sorted, you'll be dandy.

Is there a way to weight paint for daz outside of it? Daz native weighting is a pain

is there a simple way to get a shirt to morph above pants?

>>1012356
export your Daz figure to Blender, paint weights there, then re-import back to Daz using .fbx or .obj (or use a bridge).
>>1012360
Some shirts will have pant/waist expansion morphs, if not there is the geometry editor in daz. For best results, get used to exporting to your tool of choice and creating custom morphs.

He was a no-trick pony anyways. The only way his trash looks decent is with the same light setup he always uses.

Anyone here bother with Magnus1781's stuff? Can't say I think much of the likenesses. I bet most can't tell who this is meant to be, even with his facegen textures applied.

>>1012461
I dont touch content that is half baked facegen crap

>>1012252
Just move your content library and save data somewhere safe, then uninstall Daz. You shouldn't have anything critical in your Daz install folder. I think iray might be in there, but you can just reinstall it (if it's even still manually installed these days?).

>strange directories
You can set these via the daz settings.

I'm about to take the plunge into daz and make a VN. I have experience in maya & blender so I'm not completely new to 3D. is the official site and tutorials like the 'masterclass' sufficient to not just learn the current software but to get good renders/workflow in? I do like to go the extra mile to get quality renders done. any other tutorials or resources recommended would be appreciated

>>1012493
Pretty much every tutorial is made by that one old dude. He does a good job explaining stuff. I probably followed one tutorial on how to import shapes and finish a render and then after that I just freestyled and searched for tutorials when needed.

So does anyone here know where I can post spicy uncensored stuff? I've been using Pixv, but they are getting annoying and flooded with robo-generated crap. They won't let me link to uncensored art.

>>1012523
Picrel or Twitter or Bluesky (you have to set some flags you're posting NSFW).

>>1012524
Also Reddit or LemmyNSFW.

I know it exists. What's the name of the plugin that lets you merge characters? I want to create a character with different colored arms.

>>1012551
Just change the surface maps for the arms.

>>1012564
That's not really going to work for what i want. The thing I'm thinking of, it lets you fade 2 different textures very easily.

>>1012565
The thing that lets you crossfade between two textures easily is "Mix Color" shader node. Learn the basics first.

>>1012551
soft skin transitions 1 and 2 for genesis 8 and 8.1

Was this created with Daz?

>port a character into Blender with diffeomorphic
>posing is even slower than in Daz
why?

>>1012635
Does it even support any anime at all? I've never seen anime characters made in it in those threads, and what you posted also has specific anime shading, which is even further from most stuff you see here.

What do people use for backgrounds? I found a nice office environment to render a scene but it's full if windows that show nothing.

I'm using a model. It's nice and has a lot of morphs, but the skin is almost white and there are no mats to make it look like less zombie. Is there a parameter or something to make the skin a little more pink in the render?

>>1012785
What about Daddario?

Where can I find a realistic looking $20 prop?

For those who have experience with DAZ + Blender, is the idea to use DAZ Studio only to export models to Blender, and then never go back? Or is it inevitable to keep going back and forth between DAZ and Blender?

>>1013098
You probably can't get one directly, because of issues with making images of real cash for that. They have to be clearly fake to be legal.

There are several props out there that have fake bills though (look on the usual sites for "Bank" or "Spy kit"). Then you can just take a photo of the $20 and drop it in on the surfaces tab.

Then, wait for the Secret Service to bust your ass for counterfeiting.

>>1013262
depends on what you're doing. Just have to choose if you like Iray or Cycles better.

what site to use to pirate daz stuff?

How do you guys manage your add-ons? I have a ton of add-ons that aren't from the Daz store and look like picrel so I manually dragged them into my install directory and now I don't know how to cleanly uninstall anything.

At this point I have so many outfits/addons I've only tried once that I want to find a way to cleanly install/uninstall 3rd party content and then start a fresh Daz installation.

>>1012523
I've had okay results posting to pixiv

>>1013262
>export models to Blender, and then never go back
This is the way.
>>1013263
I think they were going for a george floyd reference

Didn't realize the new Diffeomorphic update improved the default texture import.
But now I have to remember how cameras and lighting work. And is there an easier way to pose in blender?

>>1013265
I do like Iray from the test renders I've used it for, I just have no idea how to optimise it.

It's supposed to be a five-year-old boy. Come on, the morph can't be that bad.

>>1013432
Yeah, just curious of the situation

>>1013437
As I'm imagining it, the situation is that a boy with a rare mutation is separated from his parents. The first person to offer to shelter him is, of course, a pedophile. After some amount of implied abuse, the boy develops an imaginary friend / surrogate father figure that instructs him to kill his abuser. I'm thinking it will be a flashback to explain his attitude and behavior five years later.

That's actually kind of cool from what I immediately assumed was low effort fetish porn.

Does anyone know how to stop daz from using up storage from my /c drive while rendering? I just noticed while doing non-stop rendering that its slowly killing my ssd. Can i somehow make it use one of my other drives instead?

I tried reinstalling daz on a different drive but that didn't work.

>>1013919
I think it uses some path inside %appdata% by default for the temp renders. Not sure if you can change that. Maybe change it in windows somehow? Though that would probably change it for everything.

>>1013919
you'll never kill your ssd like that. i have a 2012 samsung ssd that i pummeled until 2020, and it's at 70%.

you cannot load any more morphs once you've done it tho so i typically keep my models unmerged so i can import whatever i need for a project
>uv unwrap
why? daz has perfectly serviceable uvs + you'll be missing out on all the daz textures you can utilize

>>1015028
>diffeo has a button to merge the geografts and copy over the weights and shit for you
Fug, that's neat, I'll check it out. Thanks, anon.
>why? daz has perfectly serviceable uvs + you'll be missing out on all the daz textures you can utilize
I'm working with pretty fucking chubby ladies, and I dislike constantly tinkering with all the texture stretching that's going on with tits, thighs, and asses.

>>1015029
yeah the textures will look like shit if you stretch them too far. if you're just doing stills you could use skin micro normals (repeating normal textures) using generated or object texture mapping (doesn't use the uvs but will glitch big time if in an animation) and a mask to restrict it to specific spots, kind of a pain and requires tinkering
if you do need to make new uvs at least keep the old daz ones because there's no harm in having extra uv sets

>>1013357
>Skindentation
I never get this shit right
Should I just subdivide a lot then pinch sculpt/negative draw? Or theres more to it?

>>1015031
It's sculpted. You can do pretty much the same exact thing in Zbrush with just Move, Inflate, and Smooth default brushes.

>>1015032
So Blender is not up par with Zbrush yet?

>>1015033
Zbrush is still marginally better. I think you can do it in Blender just as well, it's mostly that I have experience with Zbrush.

I think I've found a more or less acceptable way to use DAZ Studio's nightmarish interface. Set up a second monitor vertically and unlock the panels, then place them on the second screen.

I wanna make porn with DAZ3D, and eventually do it in Blender, but use DAZ as my character creator. Any recomended tutorials and resources?

>>1015061
This is also my plan.

>>1015061

this is ALSO my plan. I'm the desparate nigga here >>1015007. I'm trying to figure out how to get models/environments without paying some crazy prices on the daz store.

Zonegfx has, by far, the largest library of assets. It's also not just daz, but UE, blender plugins, and even software like photoshop. And more.
There's also the requests pages, which is fantastic.

would you trust a photoshop install from there? i'm still on photoshop cc 1 or some shit.

>>1015159
I've been using PS2022 from there for over two years with zero problems now. Zbrush as well. As far as Adobe shit is concerned, all the stuff there should be directly from monkrus, which is solid. And if there was any malware, it would be quickly pointed out by the community. I upload stuff to zgfx occasionally and it always gets fuckloads of downloads, so I'm not really afraid.

>>1015233
thank you very much!

Hello.

Anons, help. I imported from DAZ and it has that black screen issue. Dunno if in issue of portability. In DAZ look normal at least and so in blender until I switch to rendering.

>>1015268
I'm behind on my Blender-fu but its likely you need to use the mix node with opacity shader node in there somewhere.

This is ND3D's Kayley. She is concerned people are using ND3D's creations in lewd ways. That wouldn't be any of you I hope!

>>1015269
I will try to experiment with that then and see if work.

>>1015271
When I used a much older version of blender with xnalara stuff the mix and opacity nodes were placed in the chain right before material output. I'm not sure if the new PBR hotness changes things or if it would provide better performance or looks in a different part of the tree.

>>1015270

It didnt do anything unless I used it unproperly.

>>1015286
Is that cycles or eevee render?

>>1015286
Try modifying the Fac value of the mix shader. That value is basically a slider between each shader input there. Else, try removing the connection and adding a new one like in pic related. You could also pull up some recent ports of things on smutba.se and see how their shaders are setup.

>>1015287
Cycles.

>>1015288
I will. I played a bit and just didnt work. I also tried with anoher hair from daz and was fine until I had to replace the transparent daz for a blender one. It was tricky but it somehow worked on that. I will now try to replicate that.

>smutba.se
Didnt know this site. I will use it, thanks.

>>1015289
forgot the pic

when importing daz you're better off deleting the materials and starting over because they are mega shit

>>1015291
doesnt that defeat the purpose of using daz?

>>1015292
no you still get all the clothes and body stuff. daz shaders are made for daz, they don't translate well into blender

>>1015293
I was doing all this for the hair only.

>>1015293
>>1015294
Nvm, I think I'm starting to get what you mean. I will run more tests anyway, if not I guess that is also an option.

>>1015293
I tried deleting every and making out again, but that exact black stuff keep appearing. I also found another way to export/import more complete, and I got the same result. I think the there is a problem with that particular mesh on how it was mad that has nothing to do with texture.

>>1015298
just plug your alpha texture into the output and look at it. it should be extremely obviously if it's wrong

>>1015268
>>1015286
>>1015288
>>1015290
Wait ... If you import a DAZ model into Blender, are the materials, image textures and node setups already imported correctly too? Or is the node setup manually created by you?
If the former applies, how do you import it like that?

>>1015288
You are using alpha in the BSDF. Try to increase the passes for transparency from its default to something higher in the render settings. I think by default it's 2-4, increase to something like 6-8 or even up to 12 to see if the issue remains.

>>1015300
the diffeomorphic daz importer addon can approximate the materials but daz has very different shader setups to what blender typically uses so they do not translate well at all

>>1015288

>>1015251
>>1015260
Does anyone use animation in Daz for anything other than porn games? What's the most impressive thing that's been animated in Daz?
I remember there being a huge collection of motion-capture animations that could be imported into Daz, but they were all calibrated for Victoria/Michael 3.

>>1015334
Bend Control morphs, maybe.
Mesh Grabber might work but I haven't had good results for something like that.
DForm would probably work but it's annoying to use.

>>1015334
The 'proper' way to fix it would probably be sculpting custom JCM's but I don't know the details.

>>1015324
Why do you think? You can try cross-fitting male outfits.

All of these three are useless duct tape garbage.

Be free. Find a base character you want. Export to your prefered 3D application and create all the hairs and clothing yourself.

Anyone knows of a hair product that's similar to this? Kind of wavy but not too much, except at the bottom. Better if it has dForce.

How do I get super nice looking feet textures? I'm aware of the morphs, but are there any maps or textures?

Do most send to blender for rendering, or all in daz for best quality renders?

>>1015423
Hmm yeah I tried that but it looks so fake, I think it's too much, like a wig with a ton of volume. But thanks

it is unironically difficult to make small breasts in daz. I have like 4 different morphs loaded and I just can't find something that looks natural

I'm doing stuff in daz for the past four to five years and there's only one asset I couldn't get on the internet despite my best efforts.

Zonegfx is way too rigid for me. Not worth it. It's the same for private trackers, same spirit and never needed them.

>>1015571
There is some people who paint like gods, in Substance Painter, You'll find them hanging around ArtStation.
They paint From Scratch and have an incredible eye.
I tried some bare-bones face transfer once, it takes a lot of edit to make it look good.
The worst example being "Toto Candy". What a fucking disgrace.

Is this the true power of Daz?

>>1015637
the freakishly narrow hips really complete the look for me

I found an HDRI that somehow allows the iray preview to generate almost instantly (typically it takes 10+ seconds to give me a very pixelated preview). Not only that but it actually looks better than what I'd usually get.
However, when I actually generate the render, it's still slow and it looks worse. The render still comes out as if I'm using one of my old HDRIs.
Any idea why this is happening?

The look I get with this fast iray preview actually looks more like the high quality renders I see people do. So I'm wondering if I've got something set up wrong.

>>1015599
I received them, bless ya anon.

>>1015652
After a long back and forth with chatgpt I have figured it out. I suspect that the 'professional' renderers have been gatekeeping and using this technique. Now my renders are fast and look much better.

"My office, NOW."

Wanted to try making a goblin so this is just a test. I want to make the ears bigger and I need to find better morphs for the teeth and nose.

so I spent the last two weeks or so painfully trying to get down a process of using diffeomorphic to import characters/props/environments from daz into blender and using blender as my render engine. I have experience with blender so it wasn't my first time using it but the whole process was a massive pain and still is. after all the work I did, I'm now at the point where I just can't get my characters to look as good as they do in daz due to the material conversion so even though I have way more control of the 3D space and environment creation, my characters just look low res. I also run into the fact that although I can edit and import environments into daz, again the material conversation makes it look low res. what a bummer to feel forced to use store assets

>>1015680
good sir, we are a community of probably like 10 at max here. you should share. I also know what you mean - I sometimes change HDRI or randomly tweak render settings and I get extremely fast iray preview and render. I never know what I change to get that

It's really not that bad, have you actually looked at stuff or tried it out yourself?
The new Madison character even comes with a projection morph so that clothes fit better on her big tits.
Wish there was a G8 character that had one.

why does XY have a 3 star rating on renderotica?

So what exactly is the DAZ AI meant to be used for? I'm reading through the page asking you to sign up for it and I'm unclear on what the AI actually does

>>1016694
>I'm unclear on what the AI actually does
ai in a nutshell.

>>1016656
i don't use G9 because i hate the antichrist. also i don't like the less detailed geometry on the body. a lot of the people who convert videogame models for Daz went back to G8 anyway, there's just not sufficient enough reason to make the jump right now

New here, and getting to grips with the UI... I'm currently pulling together some resources to make to make a good character and was looking for some help. Its looking like I'm going to us 8 over 9, but I'm trying to find some good belly buttons for a younger character, and an inner puss puss. Anyone point me in a direction?

>>1016710
I also use G8 mostly because I have game rip characters that I want to use, but I'm not completely against G9. I feel like people really exaggerate how 'bad' it is.
I just wish people had been making projection shapes for their big boobs character all along. Cause nobody's gonna go back and make things better for older generations. I'm not a coomer so vacuum tits is probably my biggest DAZ pet peeve.

Did ND3D get nuked? Their store is gone and i can't even find their DA anymore.

>>1016726
The thread about him on renderhub got nuked too. https://www.renderhub.com/forum/10825/what-happened-to-nd3d
The most recent speculation in that thread was because of a resource he provided for free specifically for his creations. Something like "realistic gens and nipples"

>>1016726
>>1016727
Looking at his storefront an archive.org he was from the UK and they have been going pretty hard with privacy nonsense so maybe related?

>>1016727
>>1016728
The UK stuff may explain it. Dam shame he was like the only person that made realistically proportioned characters. It looked so much better in a scene to have one of his models vs the other ones with their freakish deformed heads or proportions.

>>1016727
pedo fuck deserves it. Lose all the deniability that it's just for cute sfw stuff when you make products like that.

>>1016733
Makes sense since Daz still has teen/tween/baby monstrosities. They dont really provide "parts" for them.

There's a couple utilities for G8, like SY Breast Helper. If it's realism you want then you can always go the old fashioned route of using dForce physics. There's just not enough reason for a lot of people to make the switch to G9.

Thank you! I bet you also know your way around daz studio and I´m trying to get better at it, is there a way to dm you on zonegfx or another way to contact you? I´d like to be friends if you don´t mind. Thank you again for the points!

>>1017135
I'm not sure how zone does things but there is a friend system. I just accepted all the requests I've gotten from people who were active in the last month.

>>1017144
I sent you a friend request and a message

Finally! An Emma that isn't watson!

Right anon? I bet..

>>1017082
Yeah, that too.
But I would have liked to take a look.

Is the zone down for anybody else?

Best way to get flat breasts without it looking weird?

>>1017228
export to blender/zbrush and make your own
helps to make the body thinner too since g8f and, far worse, g9f are horrible fridge-wide lardos

>>1017230
I love how the advice to make anything good in DAZ is just make it in Blende/zbrush

>>1017231
It's mandatory if you're serious about your work.
There is no "one fit all" flat chest morph, because poses,and other morphs, themselves, will completely change the geography of the chest area. And you will have to battle through ten morphs to get the geometry back, if you ever do. So it's quicker to make a single morph in ZB. Since GOZ manage the back and forth for you, It's the most efficient option by far.
As well as armpits and groin folds.

is that le snood gril?
never seen that show but /tv/ seems to be positively obsessed with that hoe

>>1017263
Yes, there is a better version too.

>>1017267
dunno, that one looks derpier to me

>>1017267
I have tried using this G9 Version and her face always ends up looking so weird whenever i try any expressions with her.

>>1017331
I think the base expressions are designed for a more neutral face so if the geometry is changed a lot it can look weird. That's why all the official characters have expression packs. Though they always look super exaggerated even in the promos so there's always tweaking involved, and you should probably never dial them in 100%

Test render, I think I need to fix the nose and make it more pronounced, make the fingers thinner and a bit longer, make the hair more orange, less thick eyebrows. Thoughts on the head shape or anything else that looks weird?

millie bobbie brown eats man ass

That's meant to be Millie Bobbie Brown?

>>1017512
yes
whoever rks is seems to churn out shitty celeb morphs

>>1017523
you can easily tell ho actually sculpts faces with zbrush and who just shifts some sliders around on the base G8F model it vaguely resembles the intended person. i'm quite certain that sales of such low-effort models are from 3rd worlders

>>1017360
It's ok anon, follow your dreams. But not loli gagging, alright?

All that effort on the face and they can't even be bothered to smooth out the shirts for the promos.
Body's nothing special either.

You're terrible!

DW is really cooking with his cuties. Almost makes me want to try G9.

>>1011117 (OP)
I have some ripped game asset clothes. Is fitting them to Daz models as simple as using the auto-fit function? I'm open to manipulating them in blender or other programs if needed too.

>>1017611
You'll have to rig them. Look for tutorials on youtube but many common game assets are already ripped by people like dazwraps, shinteo, innmodels and more.

>>1017613
I used this tutorial in the past for Blender: https://smutba.se/tutorials/view/6/

Is there an equivalent for Daz?

>>1017611
If you can get it to fit the base model the transfer utility can do half of it, you can also use a simaler Daz garment as a template.
There'll still be things you have to manually do correctives for though, depending on the outfit. Like armpit/crotch bends, or rigging any hanging bits.

New thread when??

Diffeomorphic is pretty based. I think it’s good enough to drop Daz completely after I port my goblins.

>>1017550

I really wanted a good Hayley Atwell model, but both seem to struggle with her likeness

His celeb morphs are some of the better ones I've seen. Inb4 you say I'm him. I've seen way worse

how are you even supposed to make the switch to genesis 9? it's literally impossible. i gathered hundreds of morphs for g8 that i can not get for g9

>>1017827
you have to start over. it's by design so the paypigs have to shell out thousands more dollars

He claims ths same principle should apply to G8->G9, and there are non-character morphs applied in his example.
However, I tried doing a G3->G8 conversion and Daz crashed during the 'Fit To' step. Possibly not enough RAM. Couldn't hurt to try.

Am I crazy or do the "Noise degrain filtering" and "Render quality" settings not actually do anything?

>>1017927
Not really sure what all the settings mean, but dramatic lighting like that is more likely to get a lot of noise. That's what the post denoiser is for, though that can make things look too smooth, so you render one with and one without and blend in post.

New thread!

>>1017927
Maybe your threshold for the denoise is too high?
You shouldn't use it either way because the internal denoise is garbage.

Blender or Intel denoiser are better.
