Hi all. In the Request Thread, there was the question about a Firefly Jaynes Cap.
I liked the cap, so I decided to create one. Quick and dirty, without a lot of morphs. Still it should fit most characters.
Hope you like it.

... and everybody says "yes dear" ;-)
Discovered a kool way to make a perfectly fitting lid for a jar, the uvmap though is more the usual "made in Hexagon" kind but it is usable. And I remembered the template this time too :-)
Offered "as is".
One Jar - D/S4.6 figure prop file. No textures. No shaders. Just a jar.
Okay for commercial renders too.
3 simple poses. Only for genesis 3 female characters. Please report any bug.http://www.sharecg.com/v/82286/view/21/DAZ-Studio/3-simple-poses-for-genesis-3-female. For use extract "People" folder in your daz library.
This prop was created with the same idea as my worldball - i.e as something that I can add to a scene at the very last moment because I forgot to put any background scenery in ! 
The morphs are mainly so that I can fit the room around the figures and provide a mysterious staircase/passage or two in the background, giving the impression that I'd actually had the environment planned all along! 
Preamble for DAZ Studio users:
Firstly, this being the DAZ freebies forum, I'll clarify the 'Sort-Of Works With DS Too' bit.
- The room itself loads with no problem, and all the morphs work with no problem.
- However, there are no DAZ Studio textures/materials/shaders provided. In addition the room is not UV-mapped - this is intentional, since the morphs can stretch faces from almost nothing to huge sizes, so any UV-mapping would be badly distorted by certain morphs. If you just load the room, apply some morphs and render (3Delight or Iray) the room will probably render plain white.
- The room was a result of playing with Poser procedural shaders using global coordinates and big displacements and is supplied with a single such shader (a few additional Poser shaders have also been uploaded as freebies). As mentioned above these don't work in DS, and when you lod the room in
- If you use DS with the 3Delight renderer I would suggest applying the 'Flagstones' shader that was bundled with DS4 (you'll find it in your DS4 main content directory under Shader Presets > Shader Mixer ) - it makes a good starting point. You can change lots of stuff on the Surfaces tab. But if you like tinkering under the hood it's easy to edit the ShaderMixer shader itself - ensure the room prop is selected and that you've selected the main material for the room (currently labelled '(null)' - I should correct that!), then from the DS menu bar select Windows > Panes/Tabs > ShaderMixer, on the ShaderMixer window select File > Import From Scene, select Material, Accept, adjust the zoom, window, etc and play (I'd suggest reading the ShaderMixer manual first, but there isn't one - but there are a few tutorials around).
- Iray is a different matter. Whereas Poser Firefly and DAZ Studio 3Delight can apply displacements to every point on a surface, Iray only displaces vertices (see my Iray Not Doing Displacement Or Reflection? thread). You could try subdividing the room's mesh, but with most faces being 1 Poser unit (about eight foot) in length, width, and/or height you'll need a ridiculous amount of subdivision to get something reasonable. And since the faces on the edges of the steps are only an inch or so wide such subdivision will give a ridiculously dense mesh in these areas.
This dungeon/castle type room came out of some messing around I was doing with procedural textures in Poser 9 (which is why it's only got Poser textures).
The Poser procedural stone texture could possibly pass for either natural caverns or old manual constructions. (It should be quite easy to knock up something similar in ShaderMixer for DAZ Studio 3Delight.)
The room is a very simple (2928 vertices, 1310 faces) square dungeon/castle type room with 12 very basic morphing passages/stairways leading off it. The room itself is also an experiment in using minimal geometry (which seems to be rapidly becoming a lost art) but providing maximum flexibility. I've learnt a fair bit doing this (and also unlearnt a few things I thought I knew... ;o) )
Lots of black shadowy meshline type artefacts when rendered in Poser with ray-traced shadows, AO, and/or IDL due to the large displacement I use (2 inches), but hey!, it's a dungeon/castle type room, and they're usually lit by flaming torches, candles, and lanterns which cast big blurry shadows (and not the diffuse IBL and infinite light that I'm using on the promos). If you use appropriate lighting in the room these artefacts sort-of blend in or disappear, as in my "You Enter My Home Bearing An Axe?" picture. (Also if you know what 'Min Bias' means you can probably get rid of, or at least minimize, most artefacts in the correct way!)
I plan to release updates at various stages. Initially these will be in the form of Morph Targets (MTs), which are simply OBJ files that can be applied to the prop and saved with it from within Poser (and also in DAZ Studio I believe?). But at suitable points I intend to release full updates. I'm pleasantly surprised at how much flexibility a few very simple, but carefully chosen morphs can give the end user.

Scanned a black ostrich feather; made a transparent .png file, a PSPX4 brush and picture tube, included a tip for use of any picture tubes that one may wish to affect without affecting the entire page ... commercial, non-commercial, personal, merchant resource ... whatever ... it's a feather ;-)
That black feather page looked a lot better when it was larger.
Free Iray Studio light Set available to download from Deviant Art: Click Here
It includes a backdrop
Two self illuminating primitive planes set either side of the character
Two spot light props I created; One to illuminate the back of the character (which helps show off SSS) and another facing the backdrop to give that halo effect.
There is also two cameras, one showing the whole character as shown above and another focused on the face.
Post links here or on Deviant Art if you use this scene, I would like to see what you all come up with 
NOTE: This version is in BETA if you have any issues let me know and I will fix it and upload the new files.
NOTE: In the render above I had the Environment set to "Dome and Scene" and the "Environment Intensity" set to 0.50
NOTE: Although created with Iray in mind, in theory this set up would have some use in Octane or Reality (I haven't tested it though)

Ok, so you need to own Aaron for M4 by Morris to use these. Included in the set are materials for M4, Genesis and Genesis 2 Male, along with Anatomical Elements presets for M4 and Genesis 2 Males. In order to use the Genesis 2 Males presets you need to have M4 for Genesis 2 Males by Slosh. Repeat: these won't work without Aaron for M4! Its not designed as a universal preset, it is specifically for the Aaron textures.

Scene.clear();
that's it,
it clears the scene but leaves the perspective camera where it is
type it in the Daz Studio Scripting Ide and Execute it
or
download it and place it in a Daz Studio folder like MyLibrary/Scripts/mCasual
the script https://sites.google.com/site/mcasualsdazscripts4/bric-a-brac/mcjSceneClear.dsa?attredirects=0&d=1
related image - see, while making the NewCastle prop i need to clear the scene and re-load the castle
and i was tired of losing my perspective camera location each time i did a "New/Scene"
Long ago Duke533 published a script that exports objects in Daz Studio as props
then JWAS84 updated it to work in Daz Studio3
it's the script i use to make all the props on my site
But it really didnt work in DS>4.5
so today i fixed it !
https://sites.google.com/site/mcasualsdazscripts5/pp2exporterds4
or if you have trouble downloading the zip file at google-site
here's a direct link to the zip file
using this script, you select the root node of a prop in a daz studio scene, run the script and you obtain a Poser compatible prop
note 1 : the geometry ( the objects that make up your prop ) must be primitives or imported OBJ files for which you own the copyrights
note 2 : the script hides everything in the scene and exports the prop elements one by one,
if there's something else in your scene with locked nodes the script will fail to make it invisible
and that something will be exported as many times as there are props elements
thereby making your prop unusable and possibly containing stuff you're not allowed to distribute
import MDD(Motion designer) file to DAZ Studio scene, but very slow.

Whilst making some models for Daz Studio people were asking me about making rows and stacks of items. I found this was difficult to deliver – people like different things. So I came up with this plugin to fill the gap. It’s pretty easy to make simple stacks and rows of items and there are a variety of features that help accomplish this.
Well I'm ready for testing if anyone wants a play with it. The 64 bit version and initial documentation can be found on my blog here...

This is a freebie as promised at Christmas ! Here's a few screen shots, there's more on my blog.
Cartons stacked and shuffled
Tea boxes with random rotations
Books nudged with offset
Combination of settings can have a few effects - falling books for example.
DAZ3D have announced the release of the BETA Daz Studio 4.8 Iradium which includes a PBR renderer called IRAY. To celebrate and to help ease your way into the new render engine Design Anvil is giving away a free light and Render Settings set for use in IRAY.
Its encouraged that you pull the set apart to see how it ticks. Hopefully it will help you get a handle on the new settings for IRAY renders.
For use in DS 4.8 Iradium.
Hi all.
I made a set of Boots for the Genesis 2 Females. The Boots come in different Colours. They have Decobelts, that can be hidden. There is also a Fur Boarder that can be hidden.
The Boots can be opened and have a morph to fit them over Pants. They also have a morph to drop them on the floor, if your too lazy to put them away neatly... :)
Have fun.

This is my first material preset freebie I ever made, so let's see if it did it right! :)
The dress is available over at...the place mentioned in my readme. (heh.)
I have two versions of the two presets for Iray and 3Delight.
The textures are 4000 x 4000 with bump maps.
Hope you like and hope they work.
You guys are my guinea pigs since I currently work 16 hour days (including breaks) quite often so don't have time to test thoroughly meself. ;)
I don't have time to do any real renders right now but this will give you some idea of what they look like. Enjoy!
