Sooo, I seem to be having a problem, more like a doubt than a problem. I was searching for some environments and found one called

You must be registered to see the links

and it was the one that I was looking for, only problem is that it's for poser but I can use it just fine and convert most of the surfaces to iray, but the real problem is that the environment is super tiny and I don't think I can make a lot of render in it (was thinking of making a comic actually), including in the bathroom and where the bed should be, I could probably hide the walls and go as far as using the surface selection tool to hide especific stuff but I'm still not sure it that would be a good idea actually or rather, I think it's not worth investing the time to do that every time as I think I will be doing that a lot.

Anyway, the thing is, I wanted to know if there are tricks to make my life easier while rendering in this environment (I remember that you can zoom in and out with the camera using the "focal length but not sure if that would be a good idea) or would it be better to try and find another environment? I actually would like to use this environment as I kind of really like it but if it's going to be a pain in the ass to render a imagem in another angle every single time (and I know it will because of how tiny it is) then I do rather choose another environment, I was thinking of going as far as model a environment just like that in blender but make it a little more bigger and easy to use but would like to avoid that. Just want to know what others think about this, always good to hear what other people think, hope that someone can help me with this, also merry christmas for everyone!

or would it be better to try and find another environment?

to be fair this apartment looks outdated as hell.
like something from the 90s
i think you found the worst of them all

There are tons of better apartments that looks alot better like this one.

It's from 2014, which explains it some. But, yeah, there's a ton of better apartments out there. On Daz or Renderosity.

Though, if you're willing to waste some time with shaders and such, you could make that apartment look decent enough for use in a VN.

that hair is bad and not like the promo renderers i have it also

i think i used an smoothing modifier to straighten it out.
or you can use meshgrabber to get rid of those folds.

ohh merry rendering christmas
btw you should really upgrade to Iray

Thanks for the help

That's why I like it, I was looking for a apartment that looks old as heck, I searched a little on daz3d but there was only modern ones (there where some old ones but didn't find downloads from them anywhere), still looking on renderosity but so far I just found this one.

I think the problem is not about the shaders and textures as I think I can fix those pretty easily and fast (I will not really be using the props that come with it, just the base), the real problem is that the apartment is really tiny, the G8F is the very same height as the figure showed on the apartment screenshot on renderosity and I can probably hide and as I said, use surface selection tool or even the geometry editor and hide the walls and other stuff but as I don't really use a lot of environments I'm kind lost of how I would render stuff in the place where the bedroom is and the bathroom is as they look very small, I could probably do what I said and hide stuff but not sure it would be worth the time to do that all the time... As you can see I'm tottaly lost here on what to do haha xD

 

[rev2020]

the real problem is that the apartment is really tiny

comon man
its an fucked up apartment
get over it and get the real stuff and start doing some quality stuff.
and change your fucking GPU and 3D delight to Nvidia and Iray when your on it.
thank me later

Man I know but I really need a base of an apartment that looks like it's from 70-80s and this one was the only one that looks very close to what I want as I didn't find nothing like that in the daz3d, I mean, I did find some but they are also very old and there was nowhere to download it... Now that I think about it, there was a guy that was doing a visual novel set in the ancient rome and he had to look on cgtrader and other sites as there was not a lot of rome themed items for daz studio, hmm I think I should also start looking around in those other sites instead of just looking on renderosity/daz3d.

Hmm? Who are you talking to? I hope it's not be because I already said that I use iRay only, no way I would use 3Delight, that thing looks horrible lol.

You will probably not have problems with the rest but the bathroom might be a problem, even more if you're planning on making some sex render inside it, it's really small but you probably can work it by hiding some stuff, best thing you could do is make some render that you plan to do on it and see if it works, if you think you will have no problem go for it but if you think it's going to be a pain to do render on it then it's best to choose another environment.

The problem with adjusting the camera to fit that space, you're going to get something of a fisheye'd panoramic effect that's not very pleasing on the eyes. As far as IT-Roy goes (The ancient rome VN), he's also running two 3090s. He also obviously has a fair amount invested into shaders and is knowledgeable in Blender, which allows him to use sites like TurboSquid, etc. to apply UVs and such.

has that aesthetic to it, imo. Has basically everything you'd need from that era, sans a bathroom.

Yeah, I know that, I just wasn't 100% sure if using it would be a good idea or not, guess it's not. Jesus, I always watch his tutorials and always forgot his name. Oh right, most of those sites don't have their 3d models with the right UVs, so you have to do that yourself, I have been modelling for some time in Blender but I'm not really that confident so I guess I'II have to skip that.

Oh, this apartment is actually in one of my lists if this apartment that I'm using don't work as I think it would. Most of the scenes that I plan to render will occur in the bathroom and the bed, I liked how simple the apartment was (I also lived in a place like that so that's another reason.) so that's why I wanted to use it but because of the problem with the bathroom I guess I will have to use other environments, this one seems pretty good if I change some stuff... Well, I will test it out and see what I can do.

Thanks a lot for helping!

If you want the apartment of your dreams do this, create the rooms like you want in 3dsmax, export as .obj, this one was easy, then load in daz and import only what furniture and shit you need from loads of apartments, put them as you like, there, you have the apartment of your dream. I know you can't find the perfect apartment by default, believe me i was there.

 

[MissFortune]

create the rooms like you want in 3dsmax

Assuming someone has $205 to spend per month on 3ds max, and they can tell when something is made with a pirated copy of their software, nor are they afraid to throw their lawyers around.

Are there hairs for G8F that look like this painted hair on V4?

I already have HY's ponytail/bun but I am looking for tighter styles. Since it's painted, are there skullcap products like this for G8F?

You aren't going to find anything quite that tight in Daz, as far as I'm aware. The closest I've seen is the

, and it isn't nearly as tight as the Rendo one. You can find some similar stuff, but the tail's will either be longer than you'd like or entirely unadjustable(sp?), as is usually the case for Sarah Payne hairs.

Thank you for the recommendations. I got Zola close enough but it took a lot of tinkering. Painted hair is already perfect in that the hair is really just tapered to the skull and no tinkering is necessary other than having the right color. I wish there is a hair/prop using painted hair that can be applied to any character.

That's nonsense, you are paranoid, no one said you need 3ds max 2076 edition that costs 20.000$, you need an older product, it will do the job, or even use Blender why not it does the same modeling stuff, we are open minded here, and how are they gonna track your pirated products more precisely, i really want to know? What products will they track? Images? LOL!!! You never heard of conversion? I think more than half of those who make porn use pirated software...

Paranoid? I've got most of Adobe's cloud on my system via GenP/Monkrus. You clearly have no idea what you're talking about, but I do agree on the Blender part. Most people should be using that as it'll likely be the industry standard for most things in a few years.

They track via software, keys, and torrent trackers (both in the torrent, or purposely uploading an infected torrent of their own and having ISPs peg any users downloading it). Most often, via cracked codes or key generators. They'll see multiple accounts/users using the same ones, and boom. If they deem it necessary and see said users are publishing works via that cracked software, they will come down on you. Financially and legally. If they see you using the tool on social media and decide to check the license(s) only to see it's not there, they will (after contacting you, most likely, just in case.) come down on you. Just ask Amino Games and Crytek. They've made it clear they'll come after you if you're making any sort of profit - and then try to make an example out of you. Doesn't matter if you're an award-winning studio or an indie studio.

Most people who make porn games will likely only be pirating Adobe software, given how easy it is to pirate. Daz? Free. Renpy? Free. Blender (struggles with NFSW stuff, from what I've heard)? Free. Have no knowledge about KK/HS stuff, so can't speak on it. RPGMMV is $16 right now. QSP/Twine? Free. Live2D has a free version. So, again. Beyond Adobe products, what is there to pirate, exactly? Daz assets/plugins, Blender textures/uvs/plugins? That's about all I can come up with.

 

[PusaM]

You'we made your point, folks don't use pirated software and admit it.
