yup its another freebie for Daz users http://serum3d.com/product/airship-freebie/ to get it it has an offer code on it too which i hope you use.
contains both IRAY (reccomended) and 3DL versions enjoy :)

As always the information you give at checkout is only used to update you when i release a new blog or product and is never sold to a third party

Hello friends. Long have I been a member of this community, downloading other people's freebies and thinking I could never possibly make anything of the like. Well friends, that has changed. I decided to learn Blender so I could give back as a thanks for all the nice free things I've gotten in the past.

I am still in the beginning stages of modeling, but I would like to start a thread for the things I make and put up. For my first offerings, I give you: a Teapot with a cup and scaucer and a Dining table and Chair. The teapot and cup are just obj and mtl files, not uvmapped, but look nice in Iray or 3dl with whatever shader you may use. The Dining set, is uvmapped and textured and properly packaged up to be used in DS 4.8 and higher. The material are set up for Iray, but I'm sure with tweaking could be used in 3dl with no trouble.

As you can see from the promos, both offerings are scaled properly to work with DAZ figures. Please enjoy these offerings and watch this space for more. 

All items can be downloaded from my ShareCG or Renderosity Free Stuff page.

Special thanks to @FSMCDesigns for his help with fixing my UVs.

I put together some IRAY Wood Shaders and posted the ZIP file on my Deviant Art account: http://jasongalterio.deviantart.com/art/IRAY-Wood-Shaders-682657192

There are 92 shaders in the collection, broken up between natural wood shaders and plank wood shaders.

The shaders are free to use for both hobby and commercial projects. All I ask is that you provide any feedback you might have.

Thanks!

The below is a paraphrased version of the original posts from Little Dragon's Krystal v1.3 thread in the old forums. Some verbiage has been changed so that the words do not look like -I- am the one that made the model, which seems to be a bit of a confusion on DeviantArt at times.....

The talented CharleyFox (a.k.a. FoxHunt) has graciously permitted Little Dragon to adapt his superb Krystal model for use in Poser and D|S.

Version 1.3 of the figure is now available.

All files can currently be downloaded from Little Dragon's Poser website:

http://littledragon.francemi.net/

Special thanks to KCTC for providing hosting services, and to Spirit Wolf 448 for having generously mirrored the original files on his site for the past year and a half.

Also, a thanks to France hosting the freebies site for so long. We will miss you, France.

-------------------------------------------------------------
For those of you who've monitored Krystal's development since the initial announcement in 2007, the version 1.3 update offers a number of advantages over the original, along with new features. I'll gloss over the high points:

- Improved shoulder and leg legging for more realistic posing
- Integrated V4/G2-style magnet deformers, with Python script and magnetize pose
- New head and body morphs
- Joint-offset dials for improved compatibility with V4, M4, and A3 poses
- Posable whiskers, for characters that need them
- Updated DAZ|Studio material support
- Support for Studio's level-of-detail (LOD) feature
- Updated DMC file for Mimic and Studio lipsync
- Relevant updates to all conformers

New thing: Every Friday means free 16k HDRI

Hi there!

Long time no see! It's been about 2 months since my last update with the Kiara HDRIs, and I've had some time to think about how things should change...

Starting today (well yesterday actually, it's been a long week), every Friday I will upload a new free full-res (16k) HDRI for you, and enable instant downloads without requiring any annoying email-signup thing (which is probably how you first got onto this list, sorry).

So without further ado, the first HDRI of this thing I am hesitantly calling Freebie Friday is: Pond Bridge Night. Have at it :D

Oh and these Friday HDRIs will actually use a new, more liberal license: CC0. With these you don't even have to give credit or mention where you got it, making it easier to use for commercial purposes.

I am honestly surprised this one turned out alright with only a little bit of noise on the floor and in the darkest parts - it was almost pitch black when I finished shooting it, I couldn't even see the markings on my tripod. Those tiny bright street lights behind the trees meant I had to use a relatively fast shutter speed to capture the full dynamic range, but since it was so dark everywhere else I had to use a slow 10 second shutter speed too, so it took forever to shoot the whole thing and it got significantly darker towards the end of the process. I almost didn't even bother stitching it actually, I thought it would be completely unusable, but it actually turned out quite nice :)

Anyway, I hope you like it, and I'd love to see if you make something nice with it.

Have a nice day :)

-Greg

Grab it.

Gumroad, 225 Valencia St, San Francisco, CA

I decided this had broaded in scope from original thread ( www.daz3d.com/forums/discussion/106626/will-timmins-procedural-shaders ), so here's a list of freebie stuff I've made:

https://www.sharecg.com/v/86001/view/7/Material-and-Shader/WTP2-Will-Timmins-Perlin-Shaders-for-Iray

Some new procedural shaders for 3DL, including Normal2, which mixes two sets of colors (with maps) based on Normal (top/bottom of shape), sand and snow covered stuff for geoshells: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/803826/WT3 Shaders.zip

Very much a work in progress, as there are obvious gaps and things to work on and no documentation, but I figured I'd throw it out there. It's not THAT complicated. Note that, due to a passing interest, most of the shaders wrangle with transparencies/refractive stuff.

Blank Figures Iray: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/803826/Blank Figures Iray.zip

Another new thing, these are four Material presets (found under My DAZ 3D Library/Materials, if you plopped it in the right folder). There are two (Blank Genesis2 Light and Blank Genesis Light) which will replace a figure's materials with a set of materials with no image maps (NONE). The other two do the same thing, but only for mouth materials.

Why?

Iray is extremely sensitive to texture load, and if you go over your card's limit, welp, things sloooooow down. So it can be important to get rid of every texture you can.

For figures at medium to long range, the first presets can erase all the details you aren't going to see. At closer range, there are still potentially dozens of different maps for teeth on a bunch of figures... none of whom have open mouths! So, zap zap zap zap.

If you want even more savings, you can set Thin Shell: On and set Translucency to 0.

That should cover most of it.

So I have this project and wanted to use 3D Universe emo hair. Except it didn't move around. I'm so thankful it took deformers, because a lot of products don't anymore. Anyway, I don't normally announce things but eh. Here you go. https://www.sharecg.com/v/88440/view/21/DAZ-Studio/Movement-Morphs-for-3d-Universe-Emo-Hair

This is more of a "how to" get a freebie, and I use a specific example.

There are a TON of freebies for MMD (MikuMikuDance) on DeviantArt and other sites. So, if you wanted to use one in DS (or Poser), you can download the .PMD files. Then using Blender (this is not hard in blender at all, so you don't need to be scared of it)

So to do this:

- Have Blender (I used version 2.67 for this)
- Install the plugin, meshio (LINK), and then you should see it in the user preferences as seen in the picture
- Open Blender, and delete the cube (right-click to select it, then delete, enter)
- File-Import the .PMD file (for example, the one for this hair -> LINK )
- NEW: Due to me retrying this with Blender 2.71 recently...you need to right-click the mesh (select it) in Blender, and then be sure to check the "Selection Only" option on the Export dialog pane on the left. If not, you get all of the rigging and other objects you probably don't want
- Export to an OBJ, and Close Blender
- Open Daz Studio
- File Import OBJ (I found Silo settings were the closest)

BAM! Hair freebie! (see picture)

Feel free to ask questions, if you get stuck. This is just about models, do a search in the forums (for mmd), and there are some other threads about animations, etc.

NOTE: this OBJ method, you don't get any of the rigging, which can be found in the model, so it is limited, but depending on the model, it still may be valuable! :)
