I cannot fix the problem of geoshell - white material.

auermann

I bought this a long time ago: www.daz3d.com/cartoon-adult-female-character-hair-and-outfit-for-genesis-9 and I have tried to buy many products to put HD nipples in (I bought HD Nipples for Genesis 9 by 3feetwolf, HD Nipples and Navels for Genesis 9 Feminine by Paragon, Realistic Nipples G9F by DragiHadzitosic, GeoGrafting Navel and Nipples for Genesis 9 by Heryun and many more) but the problem remains . . I have tried applying geo shell corrections and many other things but I can't. I can't spend any more money on plugins that don't work, if you are familiar with this model or know a way to fix it, could you help me? I would like to mention that almost all those plugins do not have geoshells included.

This is what happens.

There is another geoshell interfereing with it. If you layer geoshells they can conflict like that. To fix, you have to turn off the areas of the conflicting geoshell. Eg, if you have a geoshell that's supposed to only affect the breasts, but also have one that affects the anatomical elements; on both geoshells turn off the overlapping sections.

If that makes sense.

Well, it seems not an issue of shell relevance but just an issue of lacking material copied to the nipples / breasts geo-graft. Select the character in Scene pane, go to Surface pane, copy Body surface. Select the nipples geo-graft and its Body surface, apply PBRSkin shader on it. Then paste the material to Body surface of nipples. (screenshots 1 ~ 3, with Heryun's nipples product...) If you use the Nipples product from 3feetwolf, there're step-by-step scripts, just dbl-click from 01 to 04 and wait.

Then, as for the geo-shell issues, if you do have geo-shell(s) on that character, see below points:

- All those "Nipples / Breasts / Navel" products you mentioned are geo-grafts. Then a geo-shell will auto create Surface(s) for the geo-grafts. So the commonly-used way to fix this "white issue" is to zero Opacity or Cutout Opaciy on the surface of geo-graft on the geo-shell (s).

- There's no geo-shell in that Cartoon Adult... product. If you added geo-shell(s) from whatever other products, fix it with this way:

For instance, I further added a GP on the cartoon character, there're two geo-shells. Go to Surfaces pane, select two surfaces of Nipples geo-grafts on two GP's shells, then set Opacity Strength to 0, and Lock them. (screenshot 4)

Really, thank you so much for your input. You were very kind and very helpful, unfortunately even trying everything you told me and following step by step your guide I couldn't do anything. I have tried many plugins but even keeping with Heryun's Geograft and following step by step what you told me to do, the nipple part remains white. 

Also I have a question to ask you: I notice that in your photo, for example in this attached one, you have options that I totally miss like “diffuse enable”, also your version of DAZ looks totally different from mine, with a layout I have never seen. Could I ask you what version you are using? I'm sure I'm doing something wrong but I couldn't ask you to explain it better because you've already really explained everything perfectly, so I guess I'll just give up.

1st, as for "diffuse enable", that comes from the shader PBRSkin, like what I showed you in the above 2nd screenshot, you'll get it after applying PBRSkin shader to the selected surface(s).

2nd, as for the layout, it's irrelevant to DS version... I just use Style: Highway. (screenhsot 1)

3rd, as for the shell issue itself, I've recorded a video and PMed you... just carefully followed the way I showed. (...because it's not allowed in the forum to post nude screenshots and videos...)
