Trying the new hair with the DAZ Big Cat 2, but taking forever and a day just to load it! Anyone else been able to try it yet?
Win 7 64bit 16GB RAM Intel i7, so I don't think my system is lacking for horsepower. In the last 10 minutes the loading progress went from 10% to 15%. :-(
The Big Cat 2 itself didn't take tooo long, but it was still a few minutes to load. (Into an empty scene.)
Or are these DAZ Studio-only products?

if it's anything like the DAZ llama it will take forever and a day to load the hair..
a real PITA.. so much so I don't use it
That's a pity. The Big Cat 2 gallery images look so good, except for that transmapped mane. Wanted the hair for that.
I am working on the Big Cat Dynamic fur and the Dynamic fur won't be needing the Big fur and this will load up faster. It should coming to the DAZ 3D soon.
sounds good Ringo... you should do the LLama as well so I can use it again ;-)
In the meantime I'm more than happy with my Lion SR1, he may be old but still got some roar left in him
So, it's 6 hours later and it's at 82%. I'm going back to bed.
A little test with Carrara Hair.....
800 000 hairs. Only one hairgroup, but using the hair-length tool to create variations in the length.
I thought this would be similar to the "Real Fur" for the first Big Cat, since it shares the name, but it seems to be based on some kind of Studio plugin instead of C's dynamic hair. But I can't even confirm that until it opens. Going on 9 hours now, sitting at 97.6%. But I'll have to leave to work in a minute, so I'll have to look when I get home.
if you meant the LAMH converting that to geometry results in some horrendous polycounts
only way You can get it out of studio
I have conformed some head hairs using transfer utility but a whole furred animal a big ask
Did milcat using Lynnes ocelot for iclone, is a VERY highpoly beast indeed
Carrara hair the best way to go
ignore my Puma attempt!
Nice job Varsel! Love the color on it.
I agree!
20 hours later... I get home and the progress bar says 100% but it's still sitting there, it did not actually finish. LAMH totally fails with Carrara.
At least DAZ has a return policy if you bought it within the last 30 days and you don't want it.
Holly has a really nice fur tutorial you can check out. I think it may be linked to at the CarraraCafe.
Except the details of the snowball sales page says:
"DETAILS •Ineligible for return = items purchased to receive Snowballs as well as items bought with your accumulated Snowball Savings"
I did buy the cats, but not the real fur (saw it was not Carrara fur, but the studio hair product). I did put some hair on the cheetah
Until Ringo gets his product out, there are several materials that don't load correctly (like the inside of the mouth) so you will need to hunt these down and load them manually the first time.

Very nice render. Nice integration with the photo as well.
Bummer about the return policy for it.
