Emissive lights are also great for fantasy scenes, for things like candles and torches, magic spells and the like. Little orbs as fairy glows, combine it with fog props to produce some god rays shining through a window, etc. They're especially great with fog props and the like, add such a lovely, eerie element to a scene!
Thanks - I'm glad you're getting something out of them. Don't forget : If you're struggling with something just pipe up with a question and I'll do my best to answer it.
@@RaukoDaz3D Not DAZ, thankfully. Somebody gifted me in good faith with an Intel Raptor Lake i9 chip and -- as you've probably heard -- the Raptor Lake chip can have *serious* intermittent issues.

Stay away from the Raptor Lake i9s unless you hear an official confirmation from Intel that they've fixed the issues. Be well!
@@obviousalias9506 Oh, I hate anything that disrupts my PC and I'll never change anything that isn't broke. I've got a little Windows 11 problem at the moment (or a driver problem) - the driver for my RGB lights won't load up so my case is half-dark. As annoying as it is - I daren't play around with anything in case I actually break something proper (which I will) .. So I'd rather have broken lights (which I paid for) than have my PC out of action for any period of time ..
Followed your links and purchased the models then followed your instructions to create the scene, however, I positioned and angled the spotlight close to the height of the ceiling leds so the light source is coming down from above her and not from the side as it is in yours which to me created a more convincing shadow effect on her. Also repositioned the field of view as I prefer more background details as it seemed a little too blurry when trying to match your settings. Great video.
Thanks for this useful video. I need a help, not related to Lights. Rawart models like Anubis or Minotaur has body fur for them, when I put cloth item around their waist or in the shoulder, the fur pokes out. I tried geometry editor vertex selection but not able to hide the fur on that section. Is there any method to prevent this inside DAZ?
Hey there - there's no reliable way in Daz to solve that problem. The way I solve it - although it takes a little longer rendering time - is to render the image with the fur / hair poking through the clothing and then hide the fur / hair in Daz and do a spot render (ruclips.net/video/L1OgH-yS2VM/видео.html) to re-render the area of the clothing now free from hair .. and then combine the two images in photoshop,
Rauko thank you for your time creating this video,3d world is exciting with you as teacher,what is your opinion about character creation program, is it better to use multiply program or just better to invest to single ecosystem like daz marketplace for assets in order to create projects?
Hey there - sorry for the delay - seems I missed this on in my notifications. I supposed it depends on your skillset. If you're able to use things like Blender or other 3d sculpting software (I can't!!) then it might be worth looking at them as then you can truly create what you want. If not, then Daz is a great introduction to get started in and create great looking images!
As always, a great tutorial. When you install a scene with cameras and lights, how do you get the lights to work? When you install a scene with just cameras, I will assume I have to add the lights?
Thanks for watching. Yeah, when you load up a scene and there's just cameras then you'll need to add your own lights - although - with some scenes they might come with not-so-obvious lights already .. like emissives. They won't show in the scene tab - they'll just be in-scene already and will only show when you go with a preview shot or a full render. When there are lights in scene .. point or spot lights .. then they should just work straight out of the box. If not - check on your Render tab for "Environment Mode" and make sure it's set to "Dome and Scene" or "Scene Only" .. Point and Spot lights will only show in one of those two modes. If you have any more questions - just drop them here and I'll do my best to answer!
Question. If you have a moon and you want it emmisive red but vague (vampire mood). Lessening the emissive is not really the effect i would like to see. What can i do more? Thank you.
Let me see if we're thinking the same .. You're wanting a red moon? With an emissive light lighting the scene (red?) .. but - when using an emissive at high enough value to light the scene washes the details of the moon which you want to keep and show in your image. If so .. and I might be answering a question you're not asking here .. Hehe .. then how does this sound .. There's no real way of doing it in one shot .. You'll have to render your image with the moon at high enough emission to light the scene .. but then spot render (ruclips.net/video/L1OgH-yS2VM/видео.html) the moon only with the emissive value turned down to a level where you keep the details of the moon .. and then combine the two images in a paint package .. Hopefully, that's what you're wanting .. but if not - let me know a few more details and I'll try again!
@@RaukoDaz3D Thank you for thinking with me! As I have it now: 1 moon real with red material (vampiric render). 2nd moon copy, dark red emissive placed behind the real moon 1. Then a 3rth copy moon emissive bright red behind the second moon. So total 3 moons. This already gives a cool emission effect for the first real moon. But I miss the vague / hazy effect for the emission in my render. - Is there a button by emission for the hazy effect? - other ideas? Prefer for this render no post work in PS. Thank you. 🌹
Hi. I have an insisting question ( though it is out of the subject ). How to apply a ready-made daz pose between two persons ( such as a mother and her daughter ) in the actual work on DAZ Studio? I searched much in Google and RUclips but didn't find any answer. I made such project but the mother and her daughter made the same pose. So I have to correct the pose of one of them manually. I hope you have the answer and sorry for prolonging. Thanks
So it's a pose for couples? If so - there should be 2 versions of the same pose named slightly different (like "A" and "B" .. or "Male" and "Female"). So you might have a pose like : "Couple Pose 01 A" and another "Couple Pose 01 B" - Apply "A" to one character and "B" to the other character. But you'll have to work it out by looking at the names. Sometimes the color of the people in the Icon for the pose are different - So it might show the pose "A" and one of the figures is colored white and the other grey and that pose will apply the "white" pose to your selected character then find the complimentary pose "B" where the other character will be white and apply that to the other character. That's how they usually work - they'll be a pose file for EACH character with someway to determine which of the two characters each pose is for .. whether in the name or the coloring.
@@RaukoDaz3D Thank you for your detailed response and your patience in explaining. Your explanation made me understand the idea well, and I applied it and it will appear in my next work. Thanks.
I'm on a NVIDIA 4090 .. but there was probably a little movie magic in there too when the spotlight came on .. the 4090 is fast, but not quite that fast!
@@antop4597 Errm. I can't remember if I was using the denoiser on this one or not. I would think not as I only use the denoiser in certain circumstances - but I honestly can't remember if I did or didn't in this one!
The difference you'd notice would be huge .. you'd go from a scene taking hours to render to taking 10s of minutes .. add into that the 12gb Vram you'd have with the 4070 S- you're scenes can also be bigger and more complex too. For Daz - always get the fastest / biggest graphics card you can afford - if that's the 4070 S for you - the jump will be big.
@@Rxtotttttt I'd always recommend getting something new rather than 2nd hand as you don't know what you're getting - the previous owner might have thrashed the hell out of the 3090 for all you know .. However, from a performance perspective - the 3090 ti will be faster than the 4070s .. and .. one of the big selling points will be the 24gb of Vram .. so if you want to do complex scenes with multiple character models then the 24gb will be a necessity .. So it's your call. From a performance perspective - a 3090ti for $80 more than that 4070s seems like a good all ... as long as you know there's nothing wrong with it. On a side note .. NVIDIA will be announcing the 5000 series of cards within the next couple of months (probably!) .. so if you're not desperate - you might want to wait to see what the next gen will be offering .. there's bound to be a big step up in performance over the 4000 series ..
