    Love this wolf but Daz keeps crashing, tried dforce, crashed, I have LAMH2Iray tried that and message No cata compliant asset to render, hope someone can tell me what I'm missing.

    It's not a catalyzer fur. Just straight Daz dforce.

    Thank you Damsel, I've tried dforce but the dog turns into a distorted hellhound with no fur.

    You have to apply the wearable fur and render. It doesn't show up in the i ray view until you do.

    Do you see the guide hairs in the preview window? (I had to add the fur separately after loading the wolf) And, just in case you didn't already know, you won't see the fur until you actually render. The Nvidia preview won't show it. 

    Thanks Grogger, yes I see the guide lines,will try again upping the line tassellation, fingers crossed as the wolf looks amazing.

    Arent those just the guide hairs? It came in fine with me. I didn't have to futz with adjusting the fur at all.

    ...I met both Wendy and Richard at VikingCon in Bwllingham WA. I still have all the orignal Black & White releases (#1 signed) as well as the four slipcase collections.  Even had a portait of Leetah I did published in the first edition of Yearnings

    Would love to try and recreate someof the characters and scenes, would be a real challenge to keep them as close to the origial appearance.  May have to get Dog 8 now 

    Oh wow - that's awesome you had your art of Leetah published in Yearnings. I'd love to see the work you did! :D

    It would be fun to do some ElfQuest fan art with 3D assets. I've not tried to recreate any of the ElfQuest characters but I bet it would be a really fun challenge!

    Elfquest fan here too. 

  • I adore Elfquest.  My kids are lucky they didn't get named after the characters... I'm sad I don't dare upgrade my Daz so I can check this wolf out - it looks fabulous when the fur is turned up.  Awooooo!

  • 3Diva3Diva Posts: 11,748

    hahah It delights me to see fellow Elfquest fans! 

    I really want to get this wolf - need to restock my store credit first, I missed the GC sale. As soon as a good GC sale comes along this wolf if going in my cart. He's beautiful! 

    Shade and Sweetwater, All. heart

  • what I like is you have the three different coloured wolfs without fur that load so you can pose them easily and see clearly then just add the fur when ready

    And now I'm just being a bit silly, but having fun!

    I present:

    The Temple of the WyrWolf

    (Get it? Get it?  "Wire Wolf" sounds like "Werewolf" - Okay, Okay, I'll see myself out. <LOL>)

    Post processed in Photoshop and Topaz Studio

    ...yeah realising a highly stylised character is no easy task.  My icon is a G2 attempt at the character Merdia from Brave.  

    I have since picked up a few more toon styled figures so may give it a try after I do an update of Merida using G3 (working on the hair using the strand based hair tool as the closest commercial version is dForce [Primavera Hair] which my old system doesn't like very well).

    ...so I see two different categories for the fur, "dForce" and "Wearbles".  Is the "wearbles" one LAMH based?

  • I love the wolf... I'm just having problems getting the dForce fur to fall more than a teency bit (almost imperceptible).  I even cranked gravity way up (to 20.0) and it really did not change much.  I'm just trying to get it to lay down more.

    Is there some stiffness or something that needs to be changed?

    You could try decreasing the stiffness and damping. Those should help having a fur more responsive.

    Does this one come with a standard LAMH preset as well? Or only dForce. If only dForce, does it have 3DL  materials?

    Only dForce and Iray materials.

    Hello Alessandro, reiterating what this poster above has said, I cannot seem to simulate the main body hair at all.  The dforce hair in question is the one called  'Dog 8_guideHairs_SG0'.

    If you try to run dforce simulation with just that dforce hair present, you receive an error as per attached, and the corresponding error in the log file:

    2023-03-07 16:47:26.024 [WARNING] :: ..\..\..\src\dzdynamicsengine.cpp(2691): ERROR: clCreateBuffer (-61)

    I could see no difference between the simulation settings of this faulty hair and the other dforce hairs that are fitted to the figure.
