it drives me crazy
fucking update des mes couilles

4.20 is broken, there is nothing you can do to fix this issue.

You have three choices, they are:
  1. If you backed up 4.16, restore your backup and use 4.16.
  2. Use the Public Beta, which is 4.20.0.6 as of 3.15.22.
  3. Wait until one of the newer Public Beta's becomes the Release version.

Cette update est fucked up.
Le meilleur moyen est de revenir à l'ancienne update, ou alors tu sauvegardes ton workspace comme tu le veux, en cliquant sur l'onglet Window, workspace, save layout as et ensuite dès que tu lances DAZ tu sélectionne ce layout.

You can only do it if you backed up your installation, DAZ does not allow you to download older versions of their software. If you do have a backup, then you can restore that backup.

DAZ doesn't care that they broke stuff in newer versions, they expect you to move forward and not want to use older versions of their software. Also 4.20 breaks Ghost Lights.

Ghost lights used to work like this:
  • if Opacity = 0 then no light output
  • if Opacity > 0 then full illumination
This way all you needed was the Ghost Light to have an Opacity of 0.000001 and it was virtually invisible in the scene yet provided all the light output.

Now Ghost Lights work like this
  • if Opacity = 0 then no light output
  • if Opacity > 0 then Light Output = Luminance * Opacity
Now you need exponentially more luminance to get the same light output. DAZ did not 'break' this, NVidia 'fixed' the way opacity relates to luminance as they said the other way was a bug.

Ah, so they "fix" things that don't need fixing while they introduce bugs in other areas. Brilliant!

I've seen in the previous posts that some people have problem with making changes to the default interface of Daz.
I have Daz 4.20 installed and for me it seems that it saves the changes I make properly.
I did change to the HIGHWAY preset though, maybe that makes a difference...
