Cut her some slack, she is a first time raider and only recently come of age. She can't afford better gear yet.

Daz devs are absolute dogs. If they had any brain, they would stop with the coomer barbie bullshit, and focus on some more interesting use cases.

They could open source the whole platform. Help people integrating stuff like Stable Diffusion into to platform, so you can do do inpainting and img2img straight from the studio. People could also start to make their own HD morphs.
They could make make official blender and UE rigs for the G8 and G9. They could kill the Iray and opt for something that both Nvidia and AMD cards support and while at it, kill the filament too and get the unreal renderer for real time.
They could implement stuff like soft body physics and better animation tools.
Daz shop would be a place for people to buy assets not only for daz, but for blender too and other 3D pipelines.

Shit could be so big and dominate the whole 3D scene, but they are not doing anything.

>>928850
Yeah, but why would they do that if boomers with their dollhouses are shelling them with money anyway?

Help! My Genesis 8 Female is not feeling well

>>928862
Why would you render something like this.

>>928928
I got a used tesla m40 for about $100. You have to jury rig a fan and get a special power connector. I didn't know about those at first. They have 12 gigs of ram and the same chip as an older titan.

>>928928
buy something used. If you are lucky you can find some 3090 card that some idiot bought to "game" on and now wants a 4090. Plenty of retards like that out there.
But the most important thing when buying Ngreedia for 3d is amount of VRAM. The GPU core is secondary to the VRAM amount and bandwidth.

>>928970
What about cpu render? Iam tired of managing the textures size and shit to keep the scene below 12 gb. I just want to just pose it and render and done with it.
Amd or intel?

>>928971
Not him, but obviously Intlel. But expect terrible render times.

>>928970

Iam rendering on an i3 gen 2 laptop with 6gb ram, no gpu. One render of one g8f took 20 hours but i alway stop it half way through.

>>928976
4th gen i5 enjoyer here, two g8 figures + some elementary scene takes usually around 2 hours.

>>928976
Damn, you are a devoted 3d artist

>>928971
>What about cpu render?
slow as hell in DAZ. If you want to CPU render you must have a good reason besides "I dont have a GPU" since CPU rendering is always superior in quality but its always super super slow.
>Iam tired of managing the textures size and shit to keep the scene below 12 gb
how do you hit 12 gb on textures? What are you using? 8k - 16k full lossless PNG? Create your own assets or at least edit the store assets manually and you can do a lot on 12 gb (I have 8 gb VRAM myself)
>Amd or intel?
intel but dont go that route please.
>>928973
Okay will do then anon!
>>928976
well in your case I would do minimum paths when tracing and no sub divs. Also render in chuncks and not the full image at once.
I am pretty sure you can cut those 20 hours down to something like 4 hours without any loss in quality (still way too slow but).

Why is my 3rd eye geograft not attached to the character mesh. Every other one I've seen the graft and the base mesh are "grafted" together. Yet mine here is completely separate. Did I not check an option or something when I made it.

It is this but with slight modifications

Might have found the reason why Iray has the same plastic-like look that older computer graphics used to have. It uses Phong BRDF. Everyone else, including real time game engines, moved to more physically based distributions like GGX a long time ago.

Imported from daz to blender.
Why are the models so bright in Cycles?
Thinking this can be fixed in Shader mode...
Though I've played with each parameter there is no big change...

>>929302

>>929302

Does anybody know how to apply poses from daz3d to the marvelous designer so that dress fits perfectly? Whenever I do the simulation on MD and import it to Daz, it looks fucked up when parented, and even turning the genesis morphs 0 doesn't fix it. It works when it isn't fitted to my character, but then there is poke through, and I can't switch positions

>>929273
well I am used to working in UE3 so it was a bit of a jump for me. I only used UE4 a little bit and made a couple of mini games and such.
UE5 is really only interesting for me when it comes to rendering because of nanite. Making massive landscapes and environments in DAZ, Blender or Maya is just such a pain and process power needed scales to the extreme. With UE5 I can much much easier create what I need.
Also after setting up your mats for your DAZ models its very easy to use them. Sure UE5 lacks some things that you need 3rd party tools for but since I am used to working in Maya I really am not missing anything.
Only thing DAZ got going for it is the amount of content at hand. But since I have been moving to custom unique content (making it myself) that aspect is not as appealing anymore.
Also ive been working on animations and want to do short cinematics and DAZ is practically useless for that.
Anything in particular you are interested in? Also UE5 documentation is 100x better than DAZ.

Give some tips on how to improve my lighting. Sometimes it looks too for me artificial.

really need to start working on my game

>>929318
Its a general curiosity as I'm considering migrating to UE5 with Daz content and I generally love seeing WIP stuff.

>>929361
Consider checking out the Daz to Unreal discord if you haven't already.

>>929365
>Daz to Unreal discord
I'm having trouble finding that.

I can get a new 3090ti for about 2/3 the price of a 4080, is there any reason to get a 4080 for DAZ rendering? On paper it seems inferior because it only has 16GB of VRAM compared to the older card.

>>929380
the 4000s series is shaping up to be a useless meme series. 3090ti is a bit slower, but it has more vram, and more cuda cores, making it a better choice for daz, especially since it's cheaper too.

>>929384
seconded. Considered holding out for 4090 but the prices are dumb. Ngreedia also shit the bed with the announcement of their professional gpu price hike (formerly quadro)

>>929380
You can't render unless you have at least 24 Gigs of VRAM, silly.

>>929454

>>929318
What level of subD do you use in UE5 for Genesis models, or do you create LODs?

>>929465
if you do stills and not animations then just use nanite and go high subdiv 4.
If you anim then go subdiv 1 / 2 in lod.

>>929467
So for animation:
LOD 0 = subD 2
LOD 1 = subD 1
LOD 2 = subD 0
?

>>929467
Also, I would be interested in seeing some of your UE5 nanite still renders if you have them. What are you doing as far as shaders for the skin?

>What are you doing as far as shaders for the skin?
make a new material / shader and just reuse the textures. Its way better if a bit more complicated than IRAY shader builder.

>>929502
these henchgirls should really up their game.

>>929502
>>929506
I don't get it

https://youtu.be/_nYhX5rEAsQ

>>929501
This is false because old GPU won't even start rendering your scene as Daz falls back on CPU-based rendering the moment it doesn't fit on vram (which it never does).
t. nearly 10 years GPU

>>929520
stop using 2700 8k textures. anything not on the character, i drop to 2k, and i literally can't fill 8gbs of ram, even with a whole scene.

>>929521
Could you post an example of a full scene rendered with your similarly ancient GPU?

>>929523
i don't have an ancient card anymore.

>>929521
10 years old GPUs won't have 8gbs. More like 2 or 4.

>>929520

You need cuda version 5.2 at a minimum I think. Or load your scenes in an old version to render.

>>929483
are these V4s?

>>929504
>>929506
Looking forward to seeing what you can do with UE5, EmmaBro.

Hot take:
Daz should turn Studio into a FULL Blender addon and just dump Studio the standalone program. They obviously either don't have the needed manpower to maintain and further develop a standalone monstrosity like this or are actually incapable.
The viewport performance is ATROCIOUS and their render engines are sluggish and limited.

Just turn it into a complete addon, maintain it and keep on trucking with your shop. They'd still make mad dosh with their catalog while not having to come up with solutions to keep their ductape ghetto-fixed monstrosity of a clusterfuck program somewhat running. Everyone would win.

>>929586
Epic should have bought DAZ instead of developing their own MemeHuman.

>>929588
>Everyone would win.
Not with Blunder, retard.

>>929589
Epic likely doesn't want to be associated with Daz because of the extremely low effort fetish porn many of it's users create, which is a shame because as an asset store Daz has a huge amount of useful character and clothing content (also a huge amount of questionable quality assets due to their often nebulous quality control).

>>929588
> blender
> with it's absolute dogshit interface
yeah daz freezing and shit, but everything else - just werks

What other programs even use iray as a renderer? Like I've never heard of iray being used anywhere else like why can't DAZ use something more common that doesn't require 24GB Nvidia cards at minimum?

>>929603
Iray is likely a scheme by Nvidia to pressure people into buying newer video cards and Daz probably gets a kickback for using it.

>>929604
>Iray is likely a scheme by Nvidia to pressure people into buying newer video cards
But who uses it? What other programs? Because I have a hard time believing the sweaty basement wegdev DAZ userbase is large enough for Nvidia to pay any attention to.

>>929605
I never said it was a very successful scheme.

>>929591
>dazfag talking down to blender
fucking hilarious

>>929618
dazlet and blunders go hand in hand though

>>929603
>>929605
Some CAD programs have it, but seriously, how often do CAD people need to make high quality renders? Not very often I would guess, and when they do, they will probably export the model to some other software. It is just there to have something more than a basic bitch openGL viewport.

But I don't think high VRAM usage is exclusive to Iray. I have seen Octane take even more. It is because DAZ assets use tons of high res textures.

>>929603
MAX and Maya uses the IRAY plugin and its used in commercial stuff as well. Its why its such low performance when it comes to VRAM as it was made with quadro cards in mind.

>>929023
Looks like you didn't use the base resolution mesh to build your graft.

>>929588
I wrote that idea up 5 months ago and I'm glad it's spreading. Studio is absolute garbage. It just cannot compete. The Daz content library, however, can.

What's the best way to convert Genesis 2 animations to Genesis 8? I tried a conversion script by Riversoft Art, but it outputs a broken json file if the animation has too many keyframes.

I experted G9 with dforce strand hair but the hair looks pretty sparce in Blender. Used diffeomorphic. The other materials seem fine though. Should i be using a "hair card" hair or is there something I need to do for strand hairs in blender?

>>929999
>twitter.com/lateasusual_/status/1470465247668494342

I had a similar idea for something like this in Daz Studio. I was planning on using joints and creating a non-dynamic soft body effect. The issue is that it's very geometry dependent so the end effect will pe dependent on how good the topology is. An advantage is that it would also be editable in the viewport. Too bad their SDK is depricated and have no idea how to create an add-ons for it.

>>929998

>>930178
That looks great, what version of diffeo? I've been tooling around with it for some time but every hair I try comes out trash. The strand hairs are invisible at render.

>>930179
derp, nm I see it in the screenshot. Significantly higher version than mine. Time for an update.

How difficult is DAZ -> Blender conversion? Can I just set up a scene in DAZ and then import it in Blender or will I have to fiddle with lots of stuff before it's ready for rendering?

>>930179
it says right there bud, latest dev version I could find
also remember to uninstall it completely and go to the blender directory where plugins get installed to and delete it from there too otherwise you'll get some conflicts and it won't work right, struggled with that for a couple hours

also I always have to set the transparent light bounces in the render setting to like 30 or 40 other wise the hair planes will block each other and make it look black in some parts, about strand hairs no idea haven't messed with it

>>930183
Thanks, I did exactly that. Main problem right now is with Catrina Hair. Seems it imports some kind of strands that I can "solidify" by extruding but it doesn't look right.

>>930182
You need to do each character individually if you want to get them right, I take around 1 or 2 hours messing with each of them and their shaders to get them how I like

scenes on the other hand, I just went into DAZ, opened and saved this scene and imported it into blender and viewport rendered it in the time span since my last post, no messing with materials or anything, so judge for yourself

>>930184
I dunno, check the particle properties and check some youtube tutorials on them
shit might have changed with the new hair particle system in blender

>>930185

>>930166

the good thing about G9 is that it unfucks my content library. 8.1 had so much shit still labeled 8 and things like expressions became a crapshoot. Also certain scripts not working on 8.1 because it tried to find an 8 base.

>>930205
>unfuck
How so? most of the stuffs wont work on g9. Clothes might somewhat work but still looking deformed.

>>930205
>8.1 only fucked some things of my library. G9 fucks up a lot more of my library but thats better.
Amazing logic

>>929733
This needs to be a default in all software going forward. This is probably my number one realism killer in renders. Everyone always focuses on 16k textures, 1GB hair files, or subd5 mesh resolution but none of it matters when your skin is stiff like a barbie doll. Even the AI understands this intrinsically.

>>930238
Long time customers have issues with loading time for Gen 8 figures because it's overbloated with thousands of morphs. There's no real way to fix this issue as Daz3D has the most organized content library out there and it's still a mess. So why not just start over?

It's the equivalent of getting a new harddrive because you ran out of space due to all the porn you downloaded and are too lazy to sort through.

monsters didn't show up for their scheduled ass kicking.

yeah, just shaped some basic shapes and use dforce to make it look a bit like liquid. Could be better / could be worse. For slime it works OK

>>930284
nice. i was looking at goo products, and they all kinda sucked. the best looking ones were all for specific poses, which isn't very useful.

bro, just wrap gen 8 to gen 9, and manually export every single titty morph.

>>930290

I know thats an inevitability but just wish vendors would port theirs already so I can just pirate them. The Fit-Suit Method did work pretty well on one morph I did try

Yeah, some of the most sophisticated morph pack was made by vendor that's no longer active.
So gen 8 and 8.1 still have the best morphs packs and will remain so forever.
Just morph the body and face however you like in gen 8 and convert it to gen 9.
The only way to make it even for gen 9 is a tool that could convert that shit for you but i doubt it

Is there a guide somewhere on getting started with Porn stuff in Daz3d? Im kinda new to this and want to start experimenting.

>>930783
Learn how the library works first thing. plenty of guides on youtube.

>>930502
thats for you to figure out, stupid bitch

>>930783
honestly, start off with some porn that you like and recreate that. This was literally my first render had no idea what DOF or lighting was. Just set the girl on a premade pose and hit render.

>>930864
Thought the monster had a green scarf on for a second, chuckled. Could use some ear muffs too. Maybe an idea for an outtake render Monster cordially enjoying tea with her.

Lads, what causes this issue with diffeomorphic? It happens when I try to load my body + another anatomical part with a shell, and it's always with the head and body materials
It displays fine on DAZ, but gets fucky in Blender
Setting the shell influence to 0 on the defective materials fixes it, but is that supposed to work like that?

>>930872
Because the people the AI learned from did that and not because it knows that the human body works like that.

>>930978
did you try changing the material settings in the diffeo options? might help to use just principled since it's a much simpler shader

How do, I make nipples get erect? also, what are my options for tentacle penis

>>930996
Just tried with principled and nothing changed, very weird
I tried using NGV8, but the skin tone of the genitals doesn't match Victoria 8
Golden Palace, on the other hand, isn't properly positioned when I import the figure in Blender
Not sure if it's the right place to ask, but how are genitals grafted? Deleting the original crotch area and pasting the new one, or by merging with the remesher?

>>930993
wow its almost like the AI understands what it should look like thanks to training it on curated images that contain the desired result. meanwhile here at Daz inc we have to be good little goys and wait for Partnered(tm) creators to drip feed us HD morphs because we aren't allowed to sculpt that shit ourselves.

Does pic related look like ayylien?

>>931330
she doesn't look like an ayy but it's a 2d picture and you're trying to make a 3d model
you're better off looking at the 3d model they used, though that probably wont help since it's a totally different style not really do-able in daz unless i've just never seen a painterly kind of shader
maybe dig up the early kda ahri model by arhoangel and look at that though it was pretty dissimilar and shit if i remember right

>>931332
not that guy but the arhoangel's ahri model is just modified neko for genesis 3, I think

This guy makes an Ahri model and doesn't make them uncanny.

I know everyone here loves to cry about Iray VRAM usage, but Octane is even hungrier. This was just a small environment and 3 Genesis 8 characters, and 2 of them didn't even have clothes. Iray in same scene was 10 GB.

what actresses have you done?
what actresses do you have planned? (amd/or currently doing)

>>931800
well I have done 5 to what I consider "finished" now.
Emma, Kristen, Yvonne, Natalie, Scarlett and have WIPS of Keira Knightley, Gal Gadot and Anita Dark (not really a celeb)
but mostly I work on clothes. This is a WIP of an outfit I made today (need to retop/smooth and such).
As for actresses and such I want to do... well there is a long list.

>>931802
nice work, I just hope Debicki is on your list

>>931803
dont know much about her and I think ive only seen her in a single bad movie. But a quick google search did get an eyebrow raise out of me with a certain gif and her in yellow very hot lingerie. Well well well.

>>931804
shes also like 6ft 3in, /tv/ goes crazy over her sometimes

not sure what image or gif you're referring to though

>>931805
yes she is 1.9m so about 5-10 cm taller than the average man where I am at. But she would properly be considered a giant in like 90% of the world haha
oh and the gif is of her pulling this sweater dress off.

>>931806
oh yeah that gif, its from The Night Manager if I recall correctly

well i'll let you have some fun if you wanna "research" her in some photoshoots etc

WIP of new business / office suit.
>>931825
>her face looks slightly off alignment where you've done the wrap or whatever technique you used, or maybe that's just how she looks and i've never noticed
nah its just not perfect. Some angles look spot on while others... not so much. Since you cant model the sub div mesh without being a PA I have to only edit the base genesis 8 mesh. Its kinda hard to get everything right as you have very limited vertex to work with.

Bros... Genesis 9 characters look like dog shit so far...

office outfits so far

>>931844
does this have a dick?

>>931844
let me guess, 20-30$ for that "bundle" right?

Genesis 9 has turned out to be a complete dud. Some new competitor needs to come in and outcompete Daz' obselete tech. Like what Daz originally did to Poser.

>>931849
>outcompete Daz' obselete tech.
Pretty much every other 3D program already does that. The huge amount of ready to render assets and their handling is just so much easier than any other program.

>>931829
what about gen9, doesnt it have more vertex to play with?

>>931876
it does but not as much as you think. And most of the extra vertex points are not located in the face.
Gen9 have a more uniform even base mesh that makes it great for using as an actual base mesh for a host of different characters. However the face only has 30% more vertex than gen8 and most of those are not located in important areas (which makes using gen9 a bit of meme).
Gen 8: 16.5k full body
Gen 9: 25k full body

>>931876
also there is this. Gen8 female is made for female forms and characters while Gen9 is not.

>>931865
I think I want to work in that office.

>>931891
fellow titty-man

Do I have to restart DAZ Studio every time I make a new render? Because when I try to render something, it properly uses my GPU (RTX3070), but if I keep using the program, it only uses the CPU. For comparison purposes, a render that takes 40s can take 10 minutes because the iray falls to the CPU (of the same scene, which occupies the same amount of VRAM)...

Are visemes and jcms rig-based or mesh based?

Basically if I import a rig with the jcms and visemes i want to blender and parent a mesh on it there, will i get them?

>>931921
Okay, I found some information, apparently sometimes the program doesn't clear VRAM after rendering something, and on the next rendering attempt it will simply assume there isn't enough VRAM and use the CPU.
If I go into the "render" part and then "advanced", and check the CPU+GPU, the memory is immediately "cleared". So basically before you do the renderings you need to check CPU, then uncheck it to free up VRAM for the next render.
This is bizarre but apparently it works...

>>931924
Wow. That's a great tip. This thing I just did forced me to render one person at a time because it kept lying to me about not having enough memory. Despite being able to draw it in iray preview with no issues.

>>931927
The iray preview also seems to consume some of the VRAM so it is better to try to close its frame before rendering for real. But I never did that before (even with a prehistoric GPU like GTX 980) and I had no problems. I don't know if this is a somewhat recent problem. All I know is that the 8GB of my RTX3070 doesn't seem enough for even the simplest scenes.

>>931928
I also recommend downloading this program to monitor the GPU. When I click on CPU in the rendering part, I can see that the memory used immediately drops to 2.8GB. Then I remove CPU and leave only GPU checked (seems like the right thing to do).

>>931802
do the ayyylmao

>>931621
Is your demon based on P3D Sigrid?

How did people render things in the old days with 4GB GPUs or similar? 8GB is not enough sometimes to put 3 Genesis characters in the scene... That's frustrating, how can games do entire scenes with much less while on DAZ three shitty ass models that aren't even that hi-res need more than 8GB?

>>931889
>>931888
so gen 9 is a bust?
guess I will stick to to gen 8.1 for another 5 years?

>>931958
game use optimized UV to use 1 image map for multi models, sometime whole model(clothes, character, accessories) even.

>>931939
cant stand the ayyylmao. XCOM: vigilo confido!
>>931958
well doing 3d back in the day was hard. You had to optimize to get anything looking decent out. People today shit on old games but would be fucked if they would try to achieve the same on that hardware back then.
also stop subdiv everything. In a single subdiv 3 genesis 3 model that are more polys than and entire scene in something like DOOM 3.
>>931960
>so gen 9 is a bust?
well obviously. Its such a minor difference that it should be called something like Unified Gen 8.2. I mean its just there so they can sell you more stuff (cant blame them for that) but really it offers very little.
As I said its better for doing non-female humanoid characters like monsters. Its also better at doing male models than gen 8 male (but not much).
All in all its just plain meh and I get that most people cant be bothered to adopt it fast. It will properly become the go-to over the next 2 years or so (unless DAZ release Gen 10 which is actually a noticeable upgrade).
lastly gen9 is a response to Metahuman with its more game friendly UV/base mesh layout. It just so happens that metahuman is a nothing burger that nobody really cares about.

>>931979
>gen9 is a response to Metahuman
Another sound investment by Daz/Tafi. Stay tuned for season 2 of NFTs!

>>931979
>become the go-to over the next 2 years or so
not in millions year mate. Need a lot of new morphs packs to achieve what is already avaiable with gen 8? While lots of guys who make good morph packs are no longer avaiable?

>>932020
Yeah, i'm skipping Gen 9 entirely unless it's for humanoid monsters or toons.

This is what I considered must have, essential morph packs. ALways install them. Feel like I could make anything with those morph packs.

How big is your DAZ folder? Mine is about 300GB

>>932039
Bout 100 gb.

>>932039
>>932040
exactly 290gbs.

>>932020
well I was thinking most "acceptable" PAs would go for g9 to also sell more new stuff.
but sure gen9 wont kill gen8 anytime soon. I know for sure I aint moving over to gen9 unless something else happens with it (like allowing us to create HD morphs because then I am jumping ship this instant). Until then gen9 is not useful besides as a base for some males / monsters.

>>932039
717GB of official assets, 86GB of third party.

>>932046
you're a madman

>>932046
do you know if i can just move my entire library over to another drive, and have no issues? i'm considering a whole new drive just for assets.

>>932047
Should be as simple as adding the new library via content library pane but might goof up some smart library or daz install manager stuff. Fine if you are a manual content library chad.
>>932047
I filtered out all the legacy stuff as well, little to no redundancies.

>>932049
>>932051

>>931979
>You had to optimize to get anything looking decent out
I'm having trouble determining what is using the most memory. I believe textures are much worse than geometry, right? But I have found that applying more light sources also requires more VRAM.
For now I am betting that textures are the biggest culprit and as an optimization I will just reduce the resolution of all of them.
