Go to the c:\Users\[username]\AppData\Roaming\DAZ 3D\Studio4\ directory and delete the layout.dse and layout.dsx files, or the whole directory. That should do the trick.Feels like layout failed to load for whatever reasons.
If you can't reopen panes, overwriting your Daz Studio install should restore it.
Culprit could be the geoshell offset distance or you're too far away from the center (0,0,0). Try to see if the appear on every pose not just the A/T one.Oh well.... I have serious issues with pussies. I went through that visibility settings, what no__name mentioned. And it went cool, there was no grey surface, everything looked fine. Until I started rendering.
First, I tought I left some kind of cum layer on the scene, altough I used only the character, character mats and GP. This is the result:

Deleted the whole scene, and create character again: figure + mats and new gens this time. The result was better, but there is still some patch:

And finaly discovered this weird patches are not limited to genitals:

So, my question is: this is normal, and I should deal with it and use PS for afterwork? Or is is the mat, the character, some settings or who knows what?
I know, I should start reading manuals and tutorials and leave this autodidact method.
Anyway, I will appreciate any help, where should I start looking for a nice, clean render.
Fill every surfaces of your model with black color instead of a texture map. Remove any gloss, SSS, transluency etc...
if you mean in ren py You can simply create a standard menu choice to watch intro or skip intro, honestly when I play through a game again if it has been a while I rewatch the intro unless it really sucked, so that's the route I would go. if they choose watch jump to intro start, if they choose skip jump to the same point the end of the intro would jump to. I notice a lot of times people make things harder than they have to be, maybe you are just overthinking it?This might be a weird question but I am wondering if someone knows how to have an option to include the intro (I have created a header file which I can ensure that it only shows up the first time playing or have it always playing which I wouldn't want to do since it's an intro) one created with say a message and disclaimer type of stuff as an option in the menu. I have seen this done in the game Being a DIK, I think I am going to analyze the code carefully but it's a big download so asking here in the meantime before I get on my main computer later.
I thought of this but my first thought was that I wanted to ensure the first time they play that they get an 18+ disclaimer to ensure legal compliance (my boyfriend is an attorney so I am dealing with this level of scrutiny heh) instead of being able to skip the intro without seeing it at least once. But, now I am leaning towards taking the part of my intro images/text with the disclaimer and putting it out right away (cutting it from my intro) and perhaps then using the remainder of my intro instead or trying to have a menu option to see the intro again after the first forced time. (the latter option is how Pinkcake did it in Being a DIK)
I would ensure that the disclaimer is seen on start up everytime, just because it's on the same device doesn't mean the same person is opening the file. I thought you meant intro storyline.
I couldn't find any geoshell settings... or even geoshell itself.
Definitely, you shouldn't have those stains.
I've got the culprit. It was the tattoo.
Whilst you can use geoshells or decals to apply tatoos, you are far better off modifying the skin itself, either by manually editing in imaging software (GIMP / Photoshop) or via using LIE tattoos (basically same process but using Daz instead of external image editor). The tutorials linked in my signature describes various methods of applying tattoos.
Keep in mind if using LIE though, the more LIE layers you add, the larger the file gets. You'll want to use LIE Baker, to merge all of them into a single layer. I had a heavily tattooed Character that was 143 meg with all the LIE tat's added. Once LIE Baker was used it dropped the file size down to it's original size.Thank you for the tip, I will try both method
For starters, most professional animations didn't use gaming FPS like 30 or even 60. Part of this is the render time. The best time saver would be, go down to 24 or 25 FPS. Depending on the render engine, non-visible objects affect your lighting by their reflections and ray bounces. So it is your own decision if you need those lighting effects, or not.
