Hi all,
I am in the middle stage of finalizing the Auto Face Enhancer detail for Genesis 8 female. No way to go about it unless to Geografting 2 stage sub div on the face. So now you can see HD. Detail for wrinkle and dimples will easily show on the base shape.
Will work with all G8 character.

Gamers may feel right at home with this one. A labyrinth of dark dank hallways with an oculus at it's heart housing a thermo nuclear warhead. You can hide many of the walls to get the right camera angle or light the rooms easier. Add on halls and turns to your hearts content for animations. You can even remove the warhead and replace with something being summoned from another realm. So have fun being the good guy... or the bad guy, your call.

Convert your favorite Genesis 3 Female characters to new Genesis 8 Female characters! The Character Converter from Genesis 3 Female to Genesis 8 Female transfer the morphs from beloved Genesis 3 characters to the latest generation, Genesis 8. The Character Converter scripts provide easy batch execution for automatically converting your Genesis 3 Female Character to a Genesis 8 Female Character in your library. Even better, icons, categories, and the default materials are copied from your original Genesis 3 Female to the new Genesis 8 Female.
The Character Converter scripts outputs are also a merchant resource! If you own the original Genesis 3 morphs, you retain the rights to the converted Genesis 8 morphs to do as you wish.
The new Character Converter script is extremely simple to use. Just select the characters to convert and click execute! There is also a Convert Scene Character script which will copy a Genesis 3 Female character in the scene, with all currently used morphs, to a Genesis 8 Female character (no character preset is created and no materials are copied).
The Character Converter script cannot properly convert all Genesis 3 characters. Characters with extreme morphs may have problems, especially around the eyes. The Character converter script does not copy joint corrective morphs (JCMs) or morph corrective morphs (MCMs) properly, which can cause problems with some poses for your converted characters. (As of the September update, the Character Converter can now convert JCMS). Default materials copied to your new Genesis 8 characters may have ugly seams and/or misaligned features due to the different UV layout. Please see the product ReadMe for full details.

I am excited to announce the imminent release of Oso Master Shader1 for Iray.
This is the culmination of two years of experiments and effort, creating a sophisticated new shader. It started as a noise-based layering shader, where a controllable noise map masks two different layers. But it does so much more.
There's a noise generator to mask two different sets of parameters: metallicity, translucency, diffuse color, refraction, luminosity, and much more.
There's also the ability to add a direct image map to mask the two layers, either in combination with noise or by itself.
Displacement normally won't properly 'engrave' surfaces; if the max displacement is .1, the depth of displacement is capped to the same value. With OMS1, that's changed -- you can deeply engrave surfaces.
Rotate the two layers.
And more...
There are a bunch of presets for different characteristics, like volume parameters. There are full presets, but also presets for the base or overlay layer, so you can mix and match as you like.
In addition to all of that, here's an interesting preset I developed... Fantom! Once exclusive to 3DL, now... you can create Fantom effects in Iray.
Glimpse of what's coming in the not so distant future. An easy to keep track of thread to answer questions, post screens, take requests, that sort of thing.
All products will be for both Daz Studio 3Delight and Daz Studio Iray.

Hi Guys. So there will be an addon with more morphs to help with things like skirt movement and areas of tops sweaters, more underwear features, as well as a few others. Also in this addon the G3 versions of Fit Control will be changed to match the G8 version to include a UI where you can now select what items to apply Fit Control morphs to. The Add-ons will support G3 Male and Female, and G8 Male and Female.
Finally, after plenty of trials and errors, our Modern Leg Prosthetic is coming soon!
Product Details:
The Modern Leg Prosthetic for Genesis 3 and 8 Male allows users to amputate their Genesis 3 & Genesis 8 male characters' left and/or right leg via a Geograft and have them wear an artificial device instead.
As the product name implies, the "Modern Leg Prosthetic" has been designed with versatility in mind; allowing characters to wear the prosthetic regardless of whether they're depicted as fantasy warriors, modern men, cyberpunk mercenaries or intergalactic pilots.
The prosthetic includes enough material presets and zones to give every user a wide range of customization in order to fit their unique and artistic vision. What's more, the prosthetic also features four different types of plates and 6 pre-made styles (wearable), giving you enough options to allow several characters to wear the same leg in a render, yet having them look different & unique!
What's Included and features:
Each generation includes:
--------------------------------
Important Considerations:
The product relies on specific bone positions to work properly (without breaking apart). As such, extreme shapes may not always work*. Unsupported shapes with a knee position too different from any of the supported shapes might also break the leg. **Additionally, while the geograft blends with the skin properly, the transition between the character and the graft is somewhat visible near the butt (crack) area, so it may not hold up in close-up nude renders.
*Interestingly, some of the shapes from HFS Fantasy Shapes for Genesis 3 Males worked perfectly despite the extreme morphing. Which just goes to show that it'll work with some fantastical shapes but there's really no way for us to know.
**We think we found a way to better blend the graft. If it pans out, we'll put it an update to include that.

Compatibility: The Prosthetic Leg shares the same UVs as the male version, so you can swap materials between the products. The only preset that will not work across genders are the hierarchical iray presets for the designer sets. However, you can apply the designer sets via the separated props.

We're proud to announce today's release of Atmocam2
Achieve depth, haze, fog, divine rays of light, supernatural moods, alien atmospheres, and several weather conditions with this prop-based set. Included are 12 colors, 6 density levels, and 10 texture effects. This new version of the Atmocam has updated material settings and is much easier to use (scale, adjust density, etc.)
Please post any questions here and renders if you feel inspired. SO many promos were created for this set, too many to include on the store page. Here are a few of them. Let me know if you have questions about any of them, if you want to reproduce any of the effects, I'm happy to share details.
As far as general instructions go we have included them in the promos and the store page.
Hi guys, I’m back yet again with a cool creature for Genesis 8 Male and Female; Starbeast HD.
This creepy alien creature includes all the cool addons you see in these images; the inner jaw; the dome and skull; the tail and the back tubes. All of these addons are poseable and they include morphs and pose controls. They can also be used with other characters.
I hope you’ll enjoy Starbeast HD.
The Scene Optimizer is a set including several tools, Scene Optimizer first, and then Store and Restore Maps Scripts.
Scene Optimizer is a three tabbed interface dedicated help you to to lower the memory requirement and/or speed up renders and/or get a more responsive viewport by acting on various levels : maps resolution, "useless" maps removal, translucency removal, visibility, mesh resolutions, instances management.
Store Maps can store in a text file all the paths of the maps used in your scene so that you can restore them later on, using the Restore Maps scripts, on any selected node or surface of your scene. Store and Restore maps scripts can also be used for LIE baking or maps set swapping.
They work for both Iray and 3Delight, even if optimization necessits more efforts and is less efficient on 3Delight. The most impressive result is when Scene Optimizer manages to "fit in your video board" an Iray Scene which was initially too big for it.
I open this thread for anybody with remarks or questions about any of the scripts included. I hope this tool will help you.
As some of you may have noticed, there are more and more png with alpha transparency used for make up or the eyebrows of Genesis 8 females. The map reduction of these, due to the transparency, often leads to a "black face" phenomenon. The logical solution should be to unchek the checkbox in the interface "Also reduce LIE maps / Also replace on surfaces png files with alpha transparency by their lower resolution version (see comments bottom of this tab)" and rerun the script, but it presently does not work, because until today, if the "black map" has already been created, it is loaded anyway, unless you physically remove the "black reduced image" from the content folder.
The bug which this january update solves is this bug : if you already had reduced these maps with transparency, then they were reloaded even if you unchecked the checkbox mentioned above. After this update (to be submitted before the 11th of january), this box will be unchecked by default, and the automatic load of the reduced maps with transparency will be disabled. This will prevent the "black face" phenomenon and if, by error, you check this box and the face becomes black after running the script, then you simply have to undo the script in Daz Studio, and re-run it without checking the box. The counterpart will be that the maximum width and height displayed by the interface for your figure will remain unchanged since the size of the maps with transparency will not change.
The update is ready, I still want to test a few cases of figures and then prepare the update package before submission. Believe me I'm sorry about this issue.
After long months of developments, Ultimate Pose Master is finally released, providing you an interface to create or modify poses which can be used in two ways:
- using it the "basic" way, you will be able to control all the bones of the figure using a synthetic interface organised by tab (by body area),
- using it the "advanced" way, you will benefit this synthetic interface, plus additional very useful tools driving hands and feet location in the scene and keeping their location (and/or orientation) as you pose the rest of the figure.
- You will also be able to display and update the center of mass of the figure, as well as the "axis of sight" of the figure.

edit: 18/09/2019: THE 1.1 VERSION (UPDATE) SHOULD BE LIVE NOW. This is the same as the initial 1.0 version, with in addition, some additional features requested here by the users (Store/Restore a pose at any time, delete or not all tools when you close the script, hide/show tools in render mode), and additional tools allowing a better workflow for people having performance issue (even if it seems to be a minority of people). These additional performance tools have been included at the bottom of the "Arms" tab, which was renamed "Arms/Conv." and include 3 convergence presets: Default (which is the default of version 1.0 and 1.1 and is ok if you have no performance issue), "Medium" (will require less time for the calculations, with a slightly lower precision), and "Fast", which is the minumum and fastest settings you can have, but you lower the precision of the hands and feet location.
Bellow the 3 convergence presets, you have 3 sensitivity presets allowing to define if the steps when you use the "+" and "-" around the helpers are 1, 5 or 10 cm. (so still in the Arms/Conv tab).
All these tools act both on hands and feet helpers.
You also have scene tools included in the two menus at the bottom right of the interface (where the "Close" button previously was), allowing to work on the various elements which can speed up your workflow, such as lowering the resolution of a figure, hiding (and showing) wardrobe and accessories of the figure, all hair, or all other figures, or all non figures in the scene, all this via dropdown menus.
The paper documentation was updated too. First you have a new parts detailing everything new in the 1.1 update. Then you have a "summary", and you can click on the various tiltes of the summary to be sent directly to the corresponding page in the document. Once in the document you can use the only "Bookmark" of the pdf to come back to the summary.
Product has been submitted.
