Till then - yep, I'm still working in good old Studio 3, which. First comes the brain surgery to try to get Studio 4.10 to work properly. It's a conundrum, and at the moment I still have no clear answer. One thing you don't want to be doing is shelling out AUS$75 for Reality/Lux, then another few hundred bucks for shaders, just to get your oars back in the water! In a word, too expensive. and I have to wonder what Preta3D have changed in the workings of Version 4.0 of the thing, which might make it more or less friendly to the old style surface textures. In the past I've had pretty good results with Reality/Lux, but the most recent version I've used was 2.0. On June 21, I'm dickering over whether to lay down AUD$75 and buy the Reality/Lux plugin, which might (and I say, might!) be kinder to the old texture maps I own, or start showering cash on IRay shaders.

Then, with Genesis, you're still down to an urgent need to own a whole lot of shaders. They don't even make them for the older figures, such as Michael 4, so unless you've abandoned all your old characters and migrated wholly to Genesis, again, you're out of luck. Additionally, the quality of the IRay renders you get depends on the "shaders" (pre-set textures and surfaces) you might own. One of the pros of the prog is that the IRay render engine is built into it but if you don't own an NVIDIA card (a pretty powerful one, too luckily, I do), you can't use this.

And the stuff-up was perpetrated by the DAZ Install Manager, automatically, while I went off and made lunch. Well, the interface has changed from the "Mickey Mouse" interface of eons ago, but the program seems - at least on some PCs, like mine - to be "buggy as the whole ant farm." I can't get content into it, and it can't even find its own "smart" content, its database is so stuffed up. After weeks "on hold" I'm instructed to uninstall and reinstall the whole program and its support files. Tech Support have been very slow to help, though to their credit, they do get back to you eventually. and as of this date, the Winter Solstice down under - June 21, am still trying to get it to perform as it should. JUNE 2019 UPDATE, RE STUDIO 4.10: Some weeks ago I "bit the bullet" and installed DAZ Studio 4.10, which is the latest version (ie., version ten of it: it's not a decimal number). with an interface that is so completely different, looking at these tutorials won't help you learn Studio 4! I'd wondered if I should delete this quick-list of featured toots, but decided to leave it "up" for a couple of reasons.

and as you probably know, or are about to find out, the company behind the program has recently issued Studio 4. IMPORTANT!! These tutorials refer to DAZ Studio 3 specifically.
