@PerttiA Well, OK. I did remove the 2 above mentioned folders. I restarted DS. I checked. Nope, I do not see anything moving. I do have the Macintosh version, 64-bit, of DS 4.15.0.2.
Worked perfectly for me, but I have a PC.
Dunno if Mac is different.
Nothing is supposed to "move". but once those placeholder files are removed, the base G8 expressions will appear on your properties tab and the G8 expressions that were not working start working again.together with everything else that's calling the base G8 expressions to work.
If that didn't happen, do you have the Starter Essentials installed to multiple base directories or have you installed them within DS with "Daz Connect"?
You also have to remove them for both genders to fix the issue for both female and male versions - That's 4 folders if you have just one content library and everything is installed just once.
@ PerttiA think I'm OK with Starter Essentials. I installed using DIM. DAZ Connect is another thing that does not work at all well with the Macintosh platform.
I did not know about having to remove the folders for both genders! YIPES! I wondered why only the female, but since the female is always released before the male figure, I thought just removing the female version would do it. Well, maybe I'll try once more.
By the way, Auto Face Enhancer works with Genesis 8.1 (at lease the Male G 8.1) with or without adding the geograft (or whatever that is). Using the included G 8.1 emotions and the AFE, I can get just about any facial expression I want, and that's without working directly on the mesh. So, just a thought. I'm on a Mac by the way, so I can't say that it works on Windows, but if you have a G 8.1 figure, you might want to try it out. I don't use the geograft; just the Parameter Dials.
Good to know! Thanks!
Oh, and here's another set which will work with Genesis male 8.1: SWM Elasticity. In the Parameter Dials, it will be under Actor, not Pose Controls, so the changes will last until you change them, assuming you zero out your character to do another pose. (The SWM Elasticity morphs will not zero out.) Besides being under Actor, they are under Head/Face. They work really well for boxing poses, but just using very slight bits of them along with other expressions can produce your original expressions. And 8.1 responds just as easily as 8.0.
Hi there, every time I apply the "Auto Face Enhancer" it will darken the head and neck of character.
I can't seem to find out why the plugin is doing that.
I've searched the internet but it does not seem to be a common issue.
When I look into the surfaces tab and alter any kind of parameter I won't get any desired result.
The rest of the body is unaltered. Does someone know why this happens and how to fix it?
The AFE is its own "object" in the scene, you need to apply the character's skin MAT to it as well
read all but still cannot get powerpose to work. Both male and female only have eye morphs and head movement morphs ... 6 buttons. I see a bunch of buttons on the posts here but I have no idea how to ge tthem active in powerpose.
EDIT: PUT IN a ticket but if someone can help that owulkd be cool.
If you want AFE powerpose off by default, all you need to do is edit this file in a text editor
\My DAZ 3D Libary\data\Daz 3D\Genesis 8\Female\Morphs\D.Master\Auto Face Enhancer Female\G8Female PowerPose Female\AFE !PowerPose.dsf
and set this value to 0
Has anyone figured out a process to restore the materials for 8.1 (just a standard Genesis 8.1 model) for the head/neck after applying the material preset back for the auto face enhancer attachment? It seems to be a mismatch in the geometry. I tried the "missing head maps" link from above, but it didnt seem to work or at least, I couldnt seem to make it work.
As regards the skin HD part.
Just in the early days of testing this. I found on heavy use of it, the neck can run into some issues. It gets a bit jowly on the neck, having head morphs like freak/swole, the auto shape enhancer neck tweaks can help.
With the skin geoshell/graft the topology of head compared to the body mesh at the join can create a hard seam because of the differing higher topology of subd 3+, and you get like a back of neck/shoulder seam hard edge especially at the back corners.
I'm not sure what the skin texture solo 1,2,3 sliders are but I found they can fine tune the bad topology graft seam and lessen it. All in all a seperate zbrush morph can probably per character, iron this tiny issue out in the end.
This really is a very interesting and highly impressive add on. The mesh when exported as .obj retains all the high level skin details for use in Marmoset or whatever other package you might have. :D
It doesnt work with G8.1, at least for the materials, it doesn't apply on torso and there is weird morph around the neck ...
Yep, there is weird neck join. It can be smoothed with a few corrective morphs.
I just bought this package (the auto face enhancer HD skin details, but it doesn't work for me. In the scene tab (up right) it doesn't show below the gen 8 female and hips listing. De features do show in the parameters but no matter how i change them, I don't see any changes. Is it because I use it on gen 8.1 perhaps ?
I also made sure I'm using the subD 3 script.
But my install of daz studio is in a custom path on d: drive, I wonder if that might pose a problem ?
Is there a detailed isage tutorial available to see what I have missed ?
am i dumb? i cant get this to work.
And yes i own this.
Details 0 looks the same as Details 3 at Subd3
oh nevermind, apparently i was supposed to just intuit somehow that i needed to add this attachment first
Hello, I'm having some weird issue while using the AFE product. On my Genesis 8 female, there are weird lines on her nose and around her eyes as if AFE doesn't like my morphs very much: https://gyazo.com/b4fdf6cc336705b2fd7603415b2ce54d - For reference, the third photo is her without the AFE attached.
Is there a way to fix this and get rid of the lines? Both the G8 character and the AFE layer itself are at SubD level 3 in those pictures. Actually, my Genesis 8 male character has a similar problem ( https://gyazo.com/5e5f36262352719ded0dc3b241e63d17 ) -- Do you see the vertical lines above his mouth?I can't seem to get rid of them. Again, both G8 and the AFE are at SubD level 3 here. Thank you for any help/advice.
Can an add-on like Auto Face Enhancer detail be made for hands and feet?
