in Daz Studio Discussion

The colours show all wrong and it just does not work,

Has anyone else that uses this hair noticed this?

Also the Infinite Cove shows really odd in the new DS Version, lines ans streaks ..

I am back to the previous version.

    Oot hairblending products received an update. Dit a quick test with the topmodel hair and expansion, they seem to work again.

    Now i can use my favorate hair with my GTX1070 :)

    I have not recieved a notification reg. the update.

    How did you find out?

    I am also waiting for the fix of the Infinite Cove from the Render Studio Base product, in fact a fix for all curved coves as they looked very odd in 4.9.3.166

    Noticed by "accident" while downloading a new purchase, both DIM and the smartcontent (updates) showed the updates.

    • Super Sleeky hair + expansion
    • Cathy hair + expansion
    • Topmodel hair + expansion
    • Sporty ponytail + expansion

    They all work with the new DAZ version :)

    Oh I see, I am not using DIM. I do have topmodel hair , I do have sporty ponytail and I do have Everyday Updo hair + expansion, I sure hope that works too.

    It is one of the better reasons for using DIM or Connect.  You can easily find and download updates.

    Hello

    I also have problem with this hair color blending
    I cant set any color blend, just one full color.. The Green On button for the blending and the blend type, style, colors, not working.

    I use the latest Daz. And The Cathy hair is selected when I try to change the color..
    How can I fix it? or what can I do with it?

    Are you rendering in 3Delight or Iray?

    How does this update behave for someone still using DAZ 4.9.2.70 ?

    I'm not sure - I believe the update affected how the shaders were set up, not the end result, and should be compatible with 4.9.2.70 but it would probably be wise to keep a back-up copy of the original zip or files (from \Data\Cloud\1_33513) for a Connect install before trying the update just to be safe.

    Seems to be working for me - I haven't read the manual (recently) but I just muddled through. Using Cathy Hair:

    1) Load the hair
    2) Under "Hair Base Colours" I click on "Cathy Hair !Apply First"
    3) Set Hair Base Color (I picked color 02, the brown)
    4) Under "Hair Blending Alphas and Styles" I click on "Cathy Hair Hairblending !Activate" and a style - I used style 03, the slightly streaky icon with a pale base
    5) Set Hair Blending Color (I picked color 18, the lilac, to make it good and obvious whether it was working)

    No change in the viewport, but hit render and there it is (very grainy pic as I stopped it after 30 iterations)

    ETA: Using DS 4.9.4.117, installed via DIM

    I got it to work and it seems just fine.

    Maybe a bit off topic, OOT used a custom shader on the fiendish friends for eyebrows that was not visible in preview.  The thing is it could have been done with a regular shader and LIE so it would appear in preview.
