Messing around this morning with AoA lights and shaders. Came up with this. :)
That is a superb render, you'd never know it was done in DS. It looks like AoA is turning DS into a serious contender with all these innovations.
CHEERS!
Such a neat effect,
These lights really are great. Below is a 3D scan I downloaded and put into DS. He's standing in Inane Glory's Photo Studio and I lit the scene with a set by Lantios but I replaced the UE light with the AAL.
CHEERS!
That is superb, you'd swear it was done in something like 3DS Max.
CHEERS!
This was done using only AoA lights. 7 AALs and 4 spots
Here's an unretouched render using a combination of Advanced Spot, Advanced Ambient, and fog camera from Atmospheric Effects Cameras.
I uploaded my scene file to the gallery for anybody interested in the settings I used... http://www.daz3d.com/gallery/#images/7975/
I wished the galleries were working for me - it looks wonderful!
i like the Setting
the compostion
the atmosphere
the colorplay
nicely done Jabba
...nice work.
Yeah,
Superb renders Matty and Jabba, you're really selling these lights!
CHEERS!
I posted a few renders in my gallery using these lights. My Gallery
There is no post work on these renders to show how easy it is to get decent results
Great looking renders!
CHEERS!
Girl:
1 AAL, 1AAS, AoASSS shader on skin tweaked with DT SSS Toolbox and hand tweaks, DT EYEris shader, Garibaldi hair, no postwork.
Dragon:
1 (barely there) AAL, 1 AAS, AoA Gummy shader, no postwork.
Yeah, very nice.
CHEERS!
That's a really nice scene, but the light-work makes it great. Generally, the light is one the most important components of a scene, one may argue its 80% of the artwork.
I have purchased the AOA light bundle after watching your YouTube tutorial about it. I'm still trying to learn it's tricks but it has been a good investment so far.
BTW, my Animate Lite is gone totally. I can't find it in Window -> Panel (Tabs), and it's not listen in my Plugins list either. Anybody knows how to get it back?
Escape!
Used 4 of the spotlights in this scene.
Is Animate 2 listed as a paid one ie with an X'd out box for the serial no? If it is you could try uninstalling it, if you can find it listed, and then see what your list looks like then. Everyone was talking about a lite version of the dynamic clothing and I had to uninstall the semi paid version before I got it.
CHEERS!
That is superb!
Hats off to AoA, these lights clearly ROCK!!

Thx for replay :)
I couldn't uninstalled the Animate 2, I don't know where I can do so. I have disabled it in Plugin list, but the problem still remains.
Great renders everyone! Keep them coming :)
...1 AAL for a skylight, 1 Distant light for the Sun.
Yup, reminds me of good ol' LDP but without over 32 separate lights to render and 16 shadow maps to process.
Yeah, you're right, I couldn't see an uninstaller for it either, and it wasn't listed under Control Panel. It looks to me like you have to buy the full product for $59.95, that was the only reference to it I could find.
CHEERS!

Uncle Harpert and his troupe on break at the circus. Not finished yet but thought I would share...... :)
1 AoA ambient
1 AoA spotlight
To the rescue!
3 spotlights and an ambient light used.
These are great, you used to be able to tell a DS render a mile off, you can't now though!
CHEERS!
I did this render with just one advanced ambient light and the only thing I changed was hitmode to primitive. I get theses dark lines under the eyes and along the forehead, what can I adjust to get rid of these? the character is Josie with lisa texture and makeup.
You could maybe try flagging skin to render with shader hitmode.
I have tried with both hitmode and primitive but same results maybe not quite as dark with hitmode. Does it make a difference with ambient light if the character usesDS ubersurface material preset?
Two work arounds were mentioned earlier in this thread but I don't remember where they are. I do the second one which is to attach a white image (100 x 100 should be fine) to the face and head opacity strength. Leave it at 100 percent. Then the eye shadow and also, I believe, some of the weird shadows from hair will go away. It will look funny but render just fine. Hope this helps.
