Product "Hayden for Young Teens" with wrong texture

Hi,

 

With the product of the character "Hayden" the vendor 

Daz Originals Morris

delivered the skin textures for a different character.

I found
- JM_HaydenHead
- JM_HaydenTorso
but
- JM_HaleyLimb

So the skin texture for Hayden's limbs is missing. In the renders you see a clear difference in color on the transition between the torso and limbs limit.

 

Did other users get the same outcome?
Any suggestion for a solution?
Where to find the correct texture for Hayden's limbs?

 

I opened a request, but now I got the reply from the helpdesk:
"Unfortunately, this product is not going to be updated."

 

Hey DAZ-Originals, why aren't you reacting on a valid report?
I started working with DAZ to relax and have some fun. But this isn't fun any longer. Too much bad things happened in the past in the customer relationship with DAZ.

    This was originally a 3Delight product, as I recall you couldnt see the slight difference in 3Delight but Iray does make it obvious.

    You are not missing anything, this is the way the product was made, I can confirm, I noticed it a long time ago.

    But why is DAZ (as the vendor) not able to feed the correct texture map?
    You see it directly in the filenames.

    they can, I guess the creator is not willing to spend the 5 minutes to fix it or possibly they messed up from the beginning and do not have a correct texture and are not willing to spend the time on creating one, not selling enough of them.

    If you just bought it, request the money back.

    (You could try loading both textures (Torso/Limbs) in GIMP or some other photo editor and try matching the colors)

    In Surface pane check the torso and arm textures for the same gamma setting, click the image and select 'image editor', this is the most common reason for these differences from 3Delight to Iray.  Second most common I have found is the specular strength maps being off a bit but this only show up in renders.

    Specular most common for me, and very occasionally the SSS maps. This is for IRAY; I don't use 3Delight.

    People... it has been this way all along. There are no Hayden limb textures, they use Hayley limb textures.  Always has. And its ancient in Daz years, its not likely to be fixed by the vendor at this point.

    There really is no "fix", it was not designed for Iray, its not going to look great as it was cheated into 3DL where it wasn't noticeable.

    After saying all that, I have the utmost respect for the texture artist, she has been my personal favorite for years; I wish she would do more work
