Edit Logo in FH Company Hallway

Hello everyone!

So far I've been doing very well with Daz3, but now I'm facing a small problem.

Yesterday I downloaded FH Company Hallway and I would like to change the logo "TECH" on the wall.
However, i can only set the font under Surfaces.

Any tips on how I can edit this?
I've already tried it with Hexagon, but there's no way to change the text there either.
Maybe I've just made a mistake somewhere and it's really easy... :)

Thanks in advance
Peter

    The logo is actual geometry. So to change it, you have to model a new logo that can replace the existing.

    I don't know if Hexagon easily can model text. I know you could do it in blender.

    Hexagon handily model's text.  I inserted the hallway into a scene hid the text, created a text obj in Carrara in this case,  exported it, placed it on the wall, added a steel shader, and did a rushed incomplete render of a fictional company called Spriral the ideas company:

    Thanks for the quick responses.
    Doesn't sound as difficult as I thought it would.
    Will try it right away.

    There are also some products in the store that are modeled letters you could use if you didn't want to make your own.

    Make sure that you triangulate, or otherwise divide, any funny-shaped polygons on the fronts of letters (I can't rtecall but I think Hexagone makes each a single polygon) - In both Iray and 3delight any complex polygons are likely to get filled in with cobwebby mesh as the engines try to break them down themselves.

    Thanks for the great help. yes

    I've gone the easy way now.
    The Script 3D Letters Wizard is the fastest way for me to create texts.
    I can use the tool for other scenes too.
