Fantastic tutorial! Genuinely have saved me weeks of trial and error. I've been creating clothing for characters in CC3 and CC4 for years using the same process kind of. Marvelous designer to Zbrush to Substance before correcting it all back in CC4. But recently made the jump to Daz/Blender and was worried I couldn't use the same process there; and after literal weeks of searching found nothing online supporting that it'd be possible. Yet the whole last 10 minutes or so of your video was everything I'd be looking for laid out nice and easy to follow. Thanks for the help!!

Your renderings are certainly art. It's unclear what the guidelines are for. Your anger is justified. However, you always provide good information to Dazstudio users. Please don't stop.

You can still use the character bundles if you cancel your membership, apart from a few daz premier exclusive items.

Surprised to see G8 figures in there.

I have premier until the end of January and can't say it's worth it at all! When I'm done with my premier time, I'm buying mesh grabber and taking a buying brake as it's kinda the same as the renamed "Geometry Sculptor" as I didn't know what it was before but it's very handy to fix poke thru! -Daz took down my fun render when they released "Donnie" and "Joey" and they wrote what was breaking their guidelines, perhaps they wrote what was wrong with your render? It's in "your gallery" all the way down it should be located.

Yours was by far the best one, in my opinion. I looked at the others and some were pretty good, but I think yours was the most interesting from a composition and subject matter perspective.

Thats insane mate daz taking down your art work! I have stopped posting in the gallery just because of the stupid rules they have now it's become almost like communist China. As far as the subscriptions go well I will just stick with free Daz basics just as long as I get the Daz Studio for free I am happy because I go elsewhere (3rd party) for most of my asset purchases anyway. Good luck to all with this! Have a great weekend!

Thanks for the breakdown. Tell Ari to stop giving daz bad ideas lol. This would be ok if some of the features were in daz say like, 5 years ago. But with blender being free and tutorials on sculpting available on YT, it's a tough sell. If the membership gave you access to more models, clothes, props, etc that were on a rotation each month i would probably get it. They don't give a good enough "reason" to buy the membership. If, for instance, vinme made an exclusive morph pack for daz that you could only get through the membership. I would have a reason to get it, even if i think practices like that are scummy. But I don't have time to use daz as a hobby like I used to. Have a good weekend mate 🍻

Premier was a big disappointment for me. Geometry sculptor was not very useful, Gen 8 to Gen 9 converter doesn't even include materials, batch renderer doesn't work across a network, the limited bundle options I already have or don't want, and so on. I subbed the first day it came out but shortly realized it didn't have much value, let alone for $19 a month.

They took down that image?? Its amazing! like...new "golden ring" amazing. I will not go on about it. I respect that you do not like that on your channel. Apparently, some items are premier only. It was talked about over at renderosity, because people were worried that if they got items that were premier only and for what ever reason couldnt renew for the month they would be out of the 'premier only items'. And welcome to the "The image was removed for what reason" club. (T-shirt not included)

If I don't do anything, I can still use all I bought? I don't need to belong anything--?

What happened man at DAZ ? Took this down or did you? You are the master talk to me…

Hello, in the 4.23 version of DAZ studio we can't save as Morph asset. Anyone know what we can do in place of that ?

Uhh, its always something broken. My first try i make it without scalp - one my materials looks like a scalp - material name -UnderBody. I use it for scalp. Its create hairs with 200++ hairs - i mean very low count hairs. After i try create scalp from model - cut bottom part of model and set this scalp. Its make 100+ hairs - bad result. Also my hairs contains 2 particles - hair and single hair. I try disconnect both, its make 10+ hairs - very very bad result. Aalso in UE its looks its cutted by scalp - only top head where is scalp was exist hairs. (I select first Hairs, second Scalp for make hairs by plugin)

the model genesis are beautiful, but Daz should understand that Stable diffusion are killing them. Daz upgrades should integrate AI or export better their genesis to Unreal engine.

Wow my man this is out of this world, you make it all seem so damn cool… you should try therapy for your second or third job…lol… you are my inspiration and don’t take it lightly, so have a scary Halloween, take care and thanks for your outlook, later mate…Ronnnnnnnnnnn

Just some feedback: this one is difficult to watch because of the constant flickering. Too many flashing lights hurts my eyeballs.

hmmm ... you are talking about hero bodys but you are using an older non-hero body. Bad joke.

Have you tried a Star Wars/Sci-Fi inspired render? Would be cool to see zombie Stormtroopers or some alien horror render! And is it possible to see the whole "making of" video in a non-sped up version? Want to see if there some tricks I can get inspired from.

I am working on my own horror piece and saw the notification for this. All I have to say, I am awestruck. The utter feeling of terror in the piece. Listening to your vid, made me think. As per, it is inspiring, it makes you pause and think. Thank you for making it and sharing it. Thank you for the pause button, and the time to reflect. (and yes, artists are passionate. We express and feel things deeply. Often that may come across as things it is not. Frustration may look like anger to outsiders. But I do not think I would ever exchange that deep feeling and expression for all the money in the world.)

Surgeon in the house!!! Man I needed to hear this today. Just been fighting with the wife, who never really seems to get me, and trying to navigate writing which isn't my strength in the long form. Finding that I've just been binge eating to try and fill up what is empty and it's just not working. It's making it worse. Okay... with that said I want to say that you touched upon so many things that must go through all of our minds. Love hearing your own stories and demons especially that you stopped for a year'ish and then took the time to figure out what the blockade was. That is incredible to hear and incredible you shared it. Love you bro and man that is one wickedly cool image! I looked in the Daz Gallery for it but didn't see it... released soon I hope? Or worse, the Daz Gallery sirens came and took the image away. Keep it up my friend and look forward to the next one.

Thx for vid, as always :) Wielding emotions is greatest skill ever, so underrated Even when stepping away from 3D your podcasts are great to hear I guess it's time for 2D, haha Enjoy the halloween

Super cool art will turn out, the scene is mesmerizing, no AI can compare with human work!!!

Amazing! A while back, I took some pains getting fingers to press into a girl's hip (in DAZ, I should quickly add!) and here you are orchestrating a horde of zombies "touching" this hapless little ghoul-food. Such good work! I am now tasked with drawing my own little Zombie Apocalypse for a client and surely have a more daunting path ahead, thanks to your horrid example. Super stuff, sir!

Hi Mate! Thought I'd check in since you using some Daz! Been a while hasn't it but I will never forget you! Have a GREAT weekend sir!

I was one of the people waiting for Mesh Grabber 4 for months, I was so hyped about it. When I saw it got bought out and hidden behind this "Premier" monthly paywall, I was angry and disappointed.

Thank you for this tut!

Great video, thanks for this.

Always a pleasure, think you open everyone’s eyes to your knowledge and experience and really want to help others. Good day mate….

Seems only low res models so far? Looks like they're afraid it'd become simply a stop before exporting out to different softwares 😂

Thank you

to be honest ........ ur accent made the video so much fun to watch ...... subscribed lol

Wow! Excellent resource I’m sure - many thanks!

Thank you for this!

Nice recap and reminder for those of us who meant to try this out but forgot due to IRL commitments. "It's your fault I forgot Ari, I was busy doing charge backs with the bank for the mobile gacha waifus you bought with my credit card. Ya bastard!"

So far it's just been a cash grab I have it and see zero benefits

Thank you for this tutorial. This is shaping up to be a killer software ! This will definitely replace Metahuman (although Metahuman is free) as you said, its in beta and it still needs some polish. Most glaring fix for me is the female hands. They need to address that sooner rather than later. If I can't get female hands out of the gate, its a deal breaker for me to be able to use these characters in Unreal Engine. As for Males and Alien types ? Good to go.

Do the new Daz tools let you tweak clothing and hair like you do in Zbrush via GoZ?

Hello Mate :) when I copy and past the face control rig from the second meth human to the first and delete thats control rig, the changes I did get copied, but every change i do in the right window, didnt get transported to the main meth human, that copied face control rig, is now a new one with the same name. What do I do wrong? I am trying everthing for hours now.

Hi @imagineeverything , I really like your videos, and your sense of humour. I'm quite new to 3D, and have found DazStudio to be amazing for new starters like me. However, I'd really like to get the characters out of Daz Studio and into Unreal Engine (along with with Blender, zBrush and Marvelous Designer) to try some more advanced stuff, and get into animation. Do you think that CC4 is the better option for that kind of workflow? Thank you very much, I'll also check out your update video when it arrives. :)

The intro shows where the website shows tricky marketing using AI as you can see some glitching. And the results are different lol not even close to realism like they advertise on its website.

The little snippet of video they showed dealing with "sculpting" showed only Base Resolution. Like you, I have my fingers crossed, but am not all that hopeful that high-res morphs will be coming. I guess it COULD be helpful for lower res mods to avoid Blender or whatnot altogether. But at $20 a month--? Fuhgeddaboutit P.S.: Waiting to hear about your Blender experiment of Sculpting to Normal Map workflow--? As described here in a CC4 workflow: ruclips.net/video/sild9pGrFNE/видео.html If it worked with DAZ, it would address a lot of the HD Morph issues...

They're trying to get my money again. NO, I won't it buy Ari!!! Get back in the cellar!

Thx for this review. Personally, under no circumstances, I'll pay 20 bucks for this. If Daz restricts the current functions of the free version, I will switch completely to CC4. At some point, as a user, you simply have to show this proliferation of software subscriptions the red card.

Hi I'm new trying to learn UE. How do you move it smoothly? it's rachety in my UE. Also how do I get the flat lighting like you do in this video?

I felt a pang of guilt when you made a note of those that dont stop buying. That hurt! To be fair, I think I am at a good plateau. No need for any bundles etc. Maybe a few wee tweek things.(My downfall...sci-fi things). The thing is...for the past...four, five months. Not even touched my daz+ coupons. My personal opinion is, it's a cash grab. Most people that use Daz can't afford Maya. For those that can, then yes, It would be worth it. But for the general hobby no. The one thing I did like, the longer token time. Thank you once more for another informative and helpful vid!! Enjoy your weekend

It's so cool to see all the hundreds of tiny adjustments which you make add up to the incredible finished image! Like the one here and the one running in the background of your last Artpod - so many artistic strokes of your creative brush make ALLLLL the difference between mediocre and brilliant! You always manage to bring out the brilliance :) Bravo

Took me ages to get my daz to maya to unreal pipeline working, but the skeleton is still a bit iffy with ue5 animations and it doesn't use the metahuman face rig. This might actually be worth a look since so many plugins and assets run off the base UE/metehuman skeleton. Wonder if it works with hair, that's a big issue for me atm too.

I got it "free" for 3 months because I had the old DazPlus, and i could have just kept it as Daz+, but I am gonna step down from buying stuff as I can do so much. So I what I liked in premier, I liked the sculpt, but it's normal, but it's good to fix poke thru without having zbrush, or fix it in blender. And got the vicky 9 free and the Expansions for the anime for 3$, so far its fine for me but as said I am not gonna continue when its over. Doesn't people understand it a FREE chose to do the paid tiers? I kinda do wish that the tools would rather be purchaseable perhaps on the new year and that it was a Premier timed exclusive thing... its dumb to have them behind the highest tier. But the tool could absolutely be better, like the damn shape transfer shait! It doesn't tranfer the F*CKING eyes and all the separate things that G9 got in its face! The anime is kinda cool, but I can't really figure how to make good render with "Filament"! Never really used it for renders just for easier to make scene the render it with iray.

Puh, I was super grumpy that they almost DOUBLED the cost of Daz+. However, they basically shifted me over free of charge for an allotted amount of time, based on my Daz+ membership, so trying Premium is cost effective--at least if you have a Daz+ membership with time remaining. I have time to try before I "buy". The free bundles offered to me are all Gen 9, but they're a new tier, more basic than the starter packages as far as I can tell (character, hair, outfit, maybe some props). Haven't tried any of the new tools offered. They basically design the memberships to pay for themselves over the course of a year, but what it does is lock you into committed spending. I currently have about half the library in content than I hear from most of the folks I talk to about Daz (and I think I have a lot. Some of which came from reduced rate bundles that I dunno that I'll ever use; another salient point Splats makes here.) If you can wait for the big sales (like last month's), always -- ALWAYS -- hold out for them. Until then, only buy what you need (unless you're Miss K, cuz we all like to poke fun at her spending trends...). :P
