DAZ Render Output Question

Fragg1960

Is it possible to get render output similar to the attached image in Studio?

I know about PWToon and Manga Shaders, and Visual Novel Shaders, etc., however, as much as I've fiddled with those, the output has not been close. I know Poser 2014 new comic preview looks pretty good (with Treshold controls for line width, etc.). Can Studio produce similar output with existing tools?

There's a Cartoon render setting but I've not tried it.

Just tried Cartoon.

Distant light 200%
Render setting Gain 8.00.

Fiddled a bit more.
using:
shadow samples 8
gain 2
Gamma correction ON
Shading Rate 0.20

Used another Spotlight to generate more highlights.

I'm sure others here in the forum know of better settings. Just wait a while. Maybe if you use those other shaders in conjunction with the cartoon render option, you may be able to get closer.

Thanks for helping out with the settings and renders. Since Poser can do this type of stuff natively, I was just curious if it was also possible to do in Studio without a plug-in (and get good results).

I've been experimenting.

I used BishounenTaurus's free Geometry Shell Outline shader (from this thread) and his Visual Style Shaders.

Sounds like what you want is more of a hidden-line wireframe render. Try this thread as it's got some options: http://www.daz3d.com/forums/discussion/2693/
