Now-Crowd Billboards - School Life
Summer's over and it is time to go back to school! Make the campus and halls of school thrum with life with the new Now-Crowd Billboards - School Life!

Billboards are a fantastically quick and resource easy way to add background crowds to your scenes. These pre-rendered elements are great to play the background characters in your scene.

There are also great scripts to make these billboards easy to use! There is one script to turn the billboards to face the camera and another script to change billboard figure angle based on horizontal and vertical orientation. Finally, there is a script that pushes your billboard directly away from your camera view or pulls it towards you.

This actually represents a departure for me. I have had some customers request Asian-themed Now-Crowd Billboards in the past. I convinced Daz to let me try an experiment... make a regular Now-Crowd version and an asian-themed version to see if there is a market for more ethnic Now-Crowds. I am excited to see what people think!
hm i will say, both are very interessting.
I have planed a school render "series" and the crowd would help a lot :)
Great to hear! I find they work really well to make the school crowd, whether high-school or college. I will warn you however. The sitting figure billboards take some creativity to work them properly into a scene. Obviously it is possible (see promos above ); I just don't want people to have unrealistic expectations.
Now that awesomet ... glad to you added in some asian theme folks, Thank you riversoftart
You're welcome! Hopefully it does well so I can justify doing more.
The Now-Crowd Billboards - School Life product has been released. The Now-Crowd Billboards - AsianSchool Life is coming soon.
I very much like your Now-Crowd products. However, might I suggest putting a note on the product page that they are very large downloads? Seeing School Life come in at something like 12GB in DIM was sort of eyebrow-raising.
Is it the number of texture files that makes the product so large?
I really keep meaning to do that and forgetting. Yes, the number of texture files is HUGE. There are 72 images per figure billboard plus image masks. Figure conservatively there is 2.5MB per image, 2MB per mask, 31 figures = 4.5MB*72*31 = 10044MB (10GB). It only goes up from there
The fact that they are all in uniform (and it is one that is available here) makes it easy to create main characters that will fit in with it. I think the Asian one will be on my shortlist when it comes out.
Great!
And the Asian School Life is now released. I hope people like it!
I just picked this up this morning I'm still downloading it. 11 1/2 gigs takes a awhile in my neck of the woods .. but i'll render you something when i get it intalled. I would like to se some asian mordern life bill baords as well to compilment this set. :)
Thanks Ivy for your support. Hopefully sales will pick up. It has not been doing well enough yet
Well it wasn't to bad only 9 1/2 gigs after installed. I'm sorry to hear the sale is slow going, i really like these bill board sets. this Asian school life set is going to be useful to me in my Karate girl series.. That is why i keep requesting anything Asian themed.
here are a couple i did today
Nice! Very, very nice! And you got the sitting billboards working! (A couple of the billboards in the top image are hovering though)
Please can you make for woman bodybuilding ?
and something belong to military -airport - construction workers?
I will put them on the list.
thank you
I bought a copy. I can see where it would be a bit specialized for some people though. Haven't done anything with the asian set yet, though I have used a couple of your other ones in renders already.
Thank you! I hope you enjoy it!
.
Sorry about that. I wish I could do something about the size. You could only keep 1 of the 72 images for each figure billboard on your harddrive. The rest could go on a backup harddrive. That way, you could use it and swap in the files you need when you need them.
.
When are the petabyte drives due out anyway? :P
I had an occasion to render "Female Student Raising Hand Billboard" from the back today, and I discovered that her hair has really bad pokethrough with the hood of her sweatshirt. Is there a way you can fix that billboard?
I will look at it. Thanks.
