    Here's the projection morph.  It should apply automatically once installed.  I went for maximum coverage.

    I don't know if this has been addressed but some of the Hatchling Hierarchical MAT presets for Drago seem to be missing a few files:

    runtime/textures/joequick/drago/more/motledgreen_normal_opengl.jpgruntime/textures/joequick/drago/more/motledgreen_roughness.jpgruntime/textures/joequick/drago/more/purple_height.jpgruntime/textures/joequick/drago/more/toonygreen_metallic.jpg

     Specifically, I refer to Hatchlings Brongol, Duumsdey, Ert, Greyn, Guld, Pinky, Reyd, and Selvir. All seem to be missing the same files.

    I've already checked for an updated version, and I've checked the File List page, which makes no mention of these missing files. 

    I know there is an issue with the "Drago's Alternate Textures and Horns" product with missing files too, which FenixPhoenix has addressed (a problem apparenlty caused by Daz failing to include the files even though they were submitted). I wonder if that's the case here, too?

    Does anyone have a render of the Storybook Mouse unmorphed back to human size, but with the fur skin on? Was wondering what it would look like, could be funny.

    Like this?

    Hahaha now that's a hairy dude. Intersting to see how long and thick the coverage is on the head, zero eye visibility left.

    Joe Quick has been on fire lately. So impressed.

    I got the Storybook Mouse or whatever it's called. Could a "toon" small dog be next???

    Hopefully I'm just overlooking something, but is there no way to use Drago without the wings and tail and *not* have the texture stretching and deformations on his back and rear end?

    That space is uv mapped, but it is not sculpted or textured.  With an HD Geografted creature the sculpt and the texturing are done with the grafts attached, otherwise I do not believe that the sculpt or textures could be seamless.

    Thank you for explaining and for the projection morph as well. It's disappointing, but understandable considering the technology and limitations of these figures.

    There really should be better and more in-depth descriptions of products though. I bought this to use in kitbashing, and while I won't return it because the quality is very good and I might find a use for it one day, this is probably the fourth item that I've bought recently (from various PAs) that had limitations that were not mentioned in the description. I didn't return those either, but that may change for future purchases.

    Someone mentioned earlier the mouse is usable on both G8 and G8.1, is this true, cause I don't have 8.1, never installed it and not really interested in doing so at this time.

  • JoeQuickJoeQuick Posts: 1,704

    My understanding is that all of your morphs from G8 show up on G8.1, but it has been my experience that the opposite is not true.  I do not believe that the mouses custom expressions would work on G8 as they are reverse deformation morphs designed to enhance the drama of the new FAC based expressions as they appear on the mouse.

    The minute I saw the mouse, I thought of this...

    (Storybook mouse + house cat with PWToon and some filters)

    Nice, Oso3D. It is very sad, that we cannot use your own product https://www.daz3d.com/oso-toon-shader-for-iray

    for making similar images. I do not use 3Delight any longer, that is why I have hoped that your shader will replace a need for PWToon.

    As far as I know, PWToon is no longer available in Daz 3D store.

    It's still available as part of the PW Shaders Bundle.

    Corrected:  it's not in the bundle, despite it being in the promo art broken heart

    @33dlux I just looked at the PW Shaders bundle, and PWToon does not seem to be included. It seems like there might be a promo from it, but the product is not there.

    I loved Drago, but i really wanted he do like he fall in a poll of wax in Filament... Really, he shines a lot and that's a problem for me, because my PC now is having a "Windows 10 killed my Iray render" and i using Filament a lot now.

    But in ohter news, any change of we getting a "Western Drago Morphs"?

    I love the beasties and have an admitted wing fetish, so Drago was a no brainer for me. I appreciate the fact that he's built on G8M, and all the detail in the sculpt renders really well:

    I've purchased the majority of @JoeQuick's catalog going all the way back to the Genesis 1 days (the original Duckie was my first). There's such a wide variety of characters - everything from fantasy creatures like Drago and Overkill, to the puppets (Ted and Felton), and of course the entire toon family line.

    Also, Rebel Yell is one of my favorite outfits. Here's Toon Princess wearing it (I think she's quite expressive):

    Speaking of Toon line, anybody know where can I buy the baby in the Toon Mom promos?

    Well, you CAN use OsoToon to make similar.

    I didn't go very elaborate here, this is a pretty standard Iray render for color, and then OsoToon materialID emission thing to get the outlines.

    The result is SLIGHTLY different. I'm actually pleased, I mainly use PWToon to get the outlines but this isn't half bad. (The big secret with OT materialID outlines is render it BIG so the find edges doesn't get blocky. The good news is that doing so, the render only takes slightly longer.)

    After looking at that baby's head shape again, I'll bet it's Toon Boy with the G8M baby character dialed in. Definitely trying it tonight.

    I'm pretty sure you're right.   

  • JOdelJOdel Posts: 6,286

    Or the Babyfication morphs?

  • Faeryl WomynFaeryl Womyn Posts: 3,628

    Based on what some of you said, are all the 3DL shaders being removed, because I don't use iRay.

    Also who made PWToon, it might be possible to contact them and still purchase it.

  • memcneil70memcneil70 Posts: 4,120

    I thought I had PWToon, but I have the other products. The PA is Poseworks, whose store is closed now.

    Ok, let's not get sidetracked, this is about how awesome JoeQuick products are!

    I tweaked the fur to look a bit fuzzier this close up:

    Linewidth from .75/25 to .3/.1, and the pr hairs per cm2 from 25 to 100.

     

    Also went with some shape tweaks. The mouse shape is at 75%, alt head shape 0%, and Wide Eyes at 75% for a little more expressiveness.
