HDMesh..

edited December 1969 in Carrara Discussion

the advert for it here http://www.daz3d.com/sales-promotions has at the bottom a showing for HDMesh in Daz Studio 64bit coming to the entire line of Genesis 2 Figures. Do you think we will get this with Carrara. Is this so you can do finer detail if you use GoZ or can export to 3d-coat do you think?

    Thank you for the answer Jared. So compatibility with outside software, but DAZ's own. Hmmm.

    The HD morphs don't work in the current version of Carrara 8.5

    Is this why C9 was planned for so quickly, perhaps?

    Not much scuttlebutt for C9. I think everybody is still working through the C8.5 kinks and features. ;-)

    interesting
    RawArt Deep sea creature exported as obj with subdivision has HD morphs
    here he is in carrara as duf gouraud next to the HD obj
    wondering if I can use this somehow as a morph target?
    trying transfer tool with morphs enabled in studio will post result

    I just checked the DS to iClone face stuff - looked ok
    didn't take it over to iClone yet .
    Did you check it out in iClone ?

    the rerigged HD version too much crashes 3dx5

    From what I understand, that's how it's done - you export from DS with subD level set to the res that you need, which creates all of the high res polygons for real, instead of as subD. Then you sculpt 'till your heart's content. But I think you need a special plugin for DS to bring the HD Morph back in. A Pixar technology. Something like that, anyways.

    will play with him more in carrara
    you know the wireframe render IS subdivided if you import a duf scene! just not morphed fully
    so it SHOULD be possible to implement somehow in carrara using the displacement possibly as others have said
    carrara creates 3D mesh from displacement just like this does from those mysterious morphs.
    if only one could map those morphs on a texture map!

    I did a quickish iClone video with a tiny bit of carrara

    Exactly. I agree about the SubD and how there should be some way to make it work in Carrara. But when I asked, they said that we need a plugin for it to work. Something with Pixar technologies - or something like that. Carrara does a great job of SubD, so I'm hoping that we get the plugin for us.

    OK it imports into Poser 2012 and a saved cr2 loads in carrara but has two meshes
    a genesis and a subD
    I cannot separate or hide one
    it loads mimic and aniblockks!
    weightmaps broken
    might try fenrics script

    fenrics Poser weightpaint fixed the rigging but still got that Siamese conjoined HD twin unmorphed Genesis mesh I cannot remove either if one could somehow combine them?
