I like where this is going !
I like making what-if mini-stories like these, letting what comes next, to people's imaginations!
Just messing around with filters, trying to get a go-to setting. So far it's, meh:cautious:. Adding characters degrades the render quality in DAZ.

Can you make a swing party of all the characters that are having fun together Nat, Ethan, Darell, Riya,matt,sam,jenna ,and Peter.
That would be epic! Unfortunately, I only have the Darrell and Jenna's assets, I made my own Nat and Ethan (not that I care about him) and it's taken a lot time to develop a Nat that I'm happy with. I used some different assets for Ethan, though I'm still looking for a match.
Any help would be great for finding the assets used in the game!

an Nvidia GPU [at least a GTX10xx +] and a good amount of RAM will do. The CPU/MB/HD combo doesn't make much difference except for loading times.

so you mean 8gb ram is ok and i need upgrade my videocard
well... I'm no expert but 16GB+ of SDRAM and a 6GB+ Nvidia GPU should get you started. Don''t get other Nvidia GPU's, they won't work. Also, DAZ is a big memory hog! GPU price's cratered recently, that's good for us on a budget.

I tried Blender, but it was hard compared to Daz3d. One hour of work in blender is five minutes of daz3d. It is not a friendly user compared to daz3d. Maybe I will try poser.
Rendering taxes any system, DAZ is no exception.

How long did it take for you to learn to use DAZ and be able to make renders like you've posted? Haven't seen anyone able to create and post good fanart as often as you do.

Thanks, about a year of messing about. The models and assets were easier, the render settings took time. Lighting is the key.

Great stuff... Can't wait to see if something happens here. I like the higher res a little better though. But that is just me.
