Fan Art Being A DIK: Fan Art

[scooman]

I was thinking about doing something AL's Melissa too, something along the lines of Lily's walk into college as a part of the late intake.
She's still one of my favourite characters.

Yes shes a great Character. Played Acting Lessons last week the first time in my lonely evenings without Family here in South East Asia. Pretty sad ending. But great Game.
I can upload the duf in Acting Lessons Fan-Art thread if you want?

I really appreciate your efforts on recreating different environments from the game. The other day, it was the study area in the MC's place in the DIKs mansion that you partly showcased in your render. Now, it's the turn of the bar area in the Pink Rose.

I myself have also spent some time on making my own versions of some of these places. So far, I have worked on the pool space in the HOTs house, which I already used in a couple of my renders, on Quinn's room, which I've also featured in more than one of my renderings of Quinn, and on the MC's room in the DIKs mansion, which is what I am working on currently. And it's because of your notes about the assets required to recreate these environments that I've been able to also make my own versions. Thank you a lot for that.

Keyword Pink Rose. I loaded the Neon Cage Club (its Pink Rose right?) But in the file was only the runtime folder and nothing else. Is there more or just something i have to know? If there is more... Is anyone willing to share the whole Neon Cage Club? Pretty please?

Besides, half the fun is in building it, and it can be a good learning exercise too (a cheap excuse I know).

It requires a lot of work from the user, but I agree that it's a good learning exercise. And it's not boring either. Generally speaking, I find most of the things we can do in Daz Studio quite entertaining, to be honest.

I'm afraid I can't be of much help at this point, since I haven't worked with the Pink Rose assets as of yet. I remembered some allusion to it from some time ago, but it has turned out that it was you who were already having issues with it back in the day. I've downloaded another copy of that asset from 3D-load.net, but as far as I can see, it must be an identical copy of the one you already tried. It is a 15.8 MB compressed file and it looks as if it does not include any Daz Studio-ready stuff in it.

It's Poser content, an alternative to DAZ Studio.
1. Create a seperate folder and label it whatever you want Poser Runtimes or something like that will do.
2. Drop that whole runtime folder as is into the newly created folder. (The Runtime folder should contain other folders like geometries, libraries. textures etc)
3. Back in Daz right click the content library tab and select content directory manager.
4. Under Content Sets click on Poser Formats.
5. On the left click Add and select the folder you created previously, click select folder and Accept.
6. Back in the content library scroll over to the top level of your content there should be:

DAZ Studio Formats​

Poser Formats​

etc. If there isn't right Click and refresh.​

7. Now you should be good to go, the textures won't be Iray, so you might want to convert them yourself.

Thank you. I'm bookmarking your post for future reference. Now that I think about it, there was also one Poser content available for Quinn's room that I did not know how to make work in Daz, the Marlbaro cigarettes pack. I'm adding to the to-do list converting its texture to make it work in Daz.

When you say you're converting the texture to make it work in Daz, what do you mean, I usually just highlight the surfaces in the surfaces tab and run the Iray Uber Base script, that's all that needs to be done isn't it, or have I been missing a step all this time?

My dude, I feel so dumb right now. You know, the first time I tried to install it into Daz, a couple of months ago or so, I could not find the cigarettes pack prop, because somehow I did not look inside of every folder provided with the package, so what I did was to create a primitive cube and I gave it the shape of a cigarettes pack. But then I found the issue that applying the provided material for the cigarettes pack (.mc6 file) was something I couldn't do in Daz, since it was a Poser format only.

But now, I have found the Marlbaro cigarettes pack prop. I've loaded it into Daz and then I've loaded the iRay Uber base shader onto it. And effectively, now I have my Marlbaro smokes.

Yes.... It worked. Thank You for sharing this Info. 20 Sec and it was done. Cool

Pink Rose Dressing Room Assets

The items marked with a (*) are in my opinion good enough, if you know where the original ones are by all means let me know. But the key items are the ones used in the game.

Great stuff Pillock

Could not resist to try fast in the Morning.
1. But i think i did not understand very well the IRAY UBER Steps. Found the Script etc. But it looked like all as before
2. When i load the light form the Club. Its everywhere and no light. looks like it need bit more interaction to get it work. tried it on Poser (trial fast installed). And apart from "i dont know how to use Poser" works evrything smoooth there with lightening. Sure it is for poser Did this to see where the light are posed and how it should look like.
Think this could be a challenge for all of us who are interested and leads finally to an upload as duf with right settings

Are you referring to the Dressing Room Assets or the Neon Cage Club?

i checked only the club out for the moment. So the club

Because it's Poser content I wouldn't bother with the poser lights. You should start adding Daz lights instead.

With regards to the Iray Uber Base script , all it does is changes a surfaces parameters to be compatible with Iray, nothing much if anything will change.

The ceiling is hidden otherwise it'd be dark.

This image you'll see the shader isn't Iray, it's made for Poser and early Daz studio I believe, and the long list of parameters.


Now I've converted the surfaces to Iray, nothing has changed within the image, only the circled parameters.
To convert the surfaces, select them in the surfaces tab and run the Iray uber script.


Now I've started adding emissive lighting to the neon chairs, the cage tubes and the ceiling lights.

Now it's up to you to play around with it, for the look you're after.

These are, in a sense, technical tests because I'm experimenting with background people for a big idea I'd like to bring to life at some point.... but I'm also just enjoying taking Rio out

You can perhaps check out the Now Crowd Billboards to add background characters: https://f95zone.to/sam/latest_alpha/#/cat=assets/page=1/search=billboards

An angel straight down from heaven,
with the sparkling sky blue eyes to really drown in love,
the fiery red lips that burned with passion ,
and the blushing face that looks at you as if you were her god on earth !!
Really enchantingly beautiful,g1nk

Thank You so much for your effort Pillock. I Really appreciate this.

I started and tried some things for around 1.5 hour. Got some basics working where i found emision but the rest not. So i let it go. That's nothing what I have the patience or ambition for. Prefer to spend my 2 hours freetime per day (at the moment) in other ways they make fun for me. Lightening is my weakness. So i stay with the basics i know and be happy with. Pink Rose would be a "nice to have" but not a "must have" SO i think i was a bit to loud before with what i said about challenge
No.. I am not too lazy. Just other prioritys
