Thanks for the kind comment. The channel is about the pursuit of Mastery and what you can do with the skills you have acquired. Too many people, myself included, accumulate skills like trophies. It's great that you have these skills, but what can you actually do with these skills to help other people and what can you create with these skills to add value to the world.
Blender has a nice strand based hair system, however unfortunately it's not renderable back in Daz as there are no surfaces on it. This is a super tutorial for modifying the already available poly based hair, thanks so much for creating it. If you have increased your skills in Daz strand based hair I'd love to learn more about that myself.
Thanks for the info regarding blender's strand based hair system. The only extra thing that I created with SBH in Daz Studio was a moustache and a beard, both which turned out to look very realistic and simple to create. I believe what you are looking for is making more complex hair? I guess if we knew how to make more complex hair then we could become DAZ PA's and sell the hair.
Great tutorial!! But I strongly suggest to talk about the hair resolution during the "Daz Studio Export Process" (maybe a simple message on the screen). Thanks!!
This is a great tutorial! Is Daz hair that you buy in the Daz Store made in Zbrush? If not, what application is used to create Daz hair that you buy in the Daz Store?
There are usually three types of hair available in the Daz Store: 1) Fiber mesh - Created with ZBrush 2) 3D Model - Created with standard 3D modelling software like ZBrush, Blender etc... 3) Strand Based hair (Dforce) - Created using strand based hair tool with Daz3D Published Artist Tools Creating hair for Daz Studio characters requires a lot of time, effort and energy. If you're willing to learn and want to create your own hair then go for it, you can do it!
@@ParmyBaddhan That was very kind of you to reply Parmy! I admire your videos and knowledge of Daz Studio! I feel there are lot of hair styles that have not been made yet. I think when hair gets made by AI it will improve a great deal. When will that happen? Maybe a long time from now. lt would be nice if you could just scan a photo of someone's hair into a computer and have it made it for you. Many of the hair models I have bought are (sadly) simply horrendous. Some hair models are extremely good. It must be difficult making it. It is naive thinking I could do any better but I have an idea of what it should be like. Making a curl and getting the texture right just boggles my mind. We need computers that can do this. It really bothers me that many hair assets are not even close to real life. They shave the sides off because it is too hard to make a nice style for the sides. Etc... We end up with too many crewcuts and Mohawks. lol
This is a great idea for a video. However my current skills regarding creating hair and garments inside Blender are practically non-existent. This is something that I will look into in the future.
Animation inside Daz Studio is not that good in my opinion and is not my strong point in Daz Studio. Have you tried tutorials from Thundorn Games UA-cam channel? I think he has a lot of awesome tutorials that may help you.
Everything seems difficult at first because it is unfamiliar. Once it becomes familiar then the pieces of the puzzle come together and that's when the magic happens for you.
Hi! Would be possible to create a tutorial teaching how to save clothes (wearable preset) leaving selectable parts of the body invisible? For exemple, create a glove and when it be add to character the hand be invisble (for in case of mesh break in some poses, the skin does not appear)
You appear to morph a hairstyle as a whole, but many of the hair models in DAZ appear to be split up in separate sections, like separate bangs, or pony tail, etc - is there a way to manipulate these separately in Blender, or can you only manipulate the hair as a whole?
I appreciate the tutorial. Beginner here attempting to learn this. I followed the tutorial, but when I imported the hair it doe snot automatically line the hair up on the figure. Any ideas how to fix this?
Hi Parmy! Thank you for another great video. It seems every time I start to get curious about a DAZ feature, you pop up with a relevant tutorial! I was wondering if you would share the build of your PC? I am thinking about upgrading my machine and I want something that will support DAZ and speed up my renders. I've heard you mention graphics cards also. Any info you would be willing to share would be amazing. - Thanks in advance.
I'm happy to share the specs of my PC:- i7-8700k CPU 64Gb ram 2x Asus Cerberus 8GB nvidia geforce GTX 1070ti graphics cards (not in sli-mode because Daz Studio does not support sli-mode) 1TB Samsung SSD 860 Evo - Daz Studio is installed on this drive. The most important thing about Daz Studio is what type of scenes will you be creating? With most figures being HD, high quality clothing and props, the memory requirements increase very quickly for that scene when introducing multiple HD characters. This means that the scene needs to fit into the VRAM ram of the GPU for GPU rendering to take place. HDRI lighting means decreased rendering times. Using any other lighting will mean increased rendering times. My comic books scenes get very big and sometimes CPU rendering will take place. I'm getting better at using some tricks I've learned along the way to bring the memory requirements down so that I can render using my GPU instead of my CPU. If I feel the need to upgrade my PC again I will be focusing on the GPU with bigger VRAM and more CUDA cores.
Thanks for your comment and concern. I'm taking a break from creating UA-cam videos so that I can focus and complete my first comic book Tiger Dragon: The Rebirth. I will then share my findings on UA-cam and continue to create more tutorials until Book 2 is ready to be made.
Thanks for the awesome video but I have come across just 1 problem at the end: When I apply morph (to 100%) in Daz it flies away off the character's head to the bottom of the character. Funny but how can I prevent that?
I tried loading the Camila Hair and appling a mirror modifer to it because I wanted to flip the hair part to make it a little more like Sintel from the Blender movie but Daz don't seem to like that, is a miror modifer maybe a step to far do you think?
Hey man, what are you PC system specs? I have an RTX 2060 Super and 16b of ram, yet still when I open Nvidia Iray mode it takes forever to load, but in your videos it's almost instant, I'm just trying to figure out why that is. Thanks in advance, I've watched a ton of your videos and they've been exceptionally helpful.
I like your video very much and learn a lot of useful knowledge. What configuration is your computer using? What is the graphics card used? I have recently configured a new computer and have no idea about the choice of graphics card, nvidia RTX 3090 or 3080? I don’t know if the 3090 with 24G of Video memory will be much faster than the 3080 with only 10G of Video memory? Hope to give some suggestions. Thank you!

As for purchasing a graphics card it depends on what you wish to use Daz Studio for. I would focus on getting a graphics card that has more ram because that is what Daz Studio uses first. If the scene inside Daz Studio is too big to fit into the graphic cards ram then Daz Studio will automatically go to CPU rendering. If you have any other questions then reply to this comment and I will help you to the best of my abilities.
@@ParmyBaddhan Thank you so much for the detailed answer, I am using 1070, cpu i5, the speed is very slow. I think now, I still want to buy a brand new computer of 3090. If the rendering speed is related to the gpu memory, I am studying your tutorial. You are so familiar with daz software! I will always follow you.
So im having an issue making the morph for hair. Im using the corporate hair and Im just trying to move the bang in a little bit as theres no slider for that. I exported to blender, etc and shaped it but when I use morph loader pro and import it DAZ gets stuck at 0% and doesnt respond forever haha. The corporate hair has a haircap on it too which I didnt include in the blender editing because it moved it too so idk if that could be why. Edit: I included the haircap and it always says Warning: geometry didnt match. Im at a loss.
QUESTION - THOSE MORPHS ARE GOOD per file or per item? - elaborating - per item - item usable with morphs in other files or per file - new morphs are not usable in other files - need to remake again and again?
Thanks for your question. Let me clarify the morphs. Each morph you create will only work on the object with the same geometry. For example, if you create a morph for a genesis 8 male character, this morph will only work on genesis 8 male characters and genesis 8.1 male characters. If you create a morph for the Toulouse hair then the morphs will only work on the Toulouse hair.
Thanks for taking the time to leave a comment. Unfortunately I don't have the budget to purchase ZBrush, which is why I created a tutorial with Blender. When my business becomes more profitable then I will look into purchasing ZBrush.
@@ParmyBaddhan You're right. It is pricey. It's about $900 for a single license. Blender is great but if you ever do get Zbrush, I'd love to see some tutorials on it. I'm curious to learn more about how morphs are made, especially morphs for hair & clothing.
Hi, thank you for your tutorial, I followed your instructions step by step with: "Linda Ponytail Hair Genesis 8 Female", it has Resolution level set to High resolution by default and I exported it in base resolution, tried also with max resolution but when importing daz gives this error: Warning: Geometry did not match, failed to create morph. Can you help me out?
Recently, a friend said that the daz 4.12 version cannot use NVIDA’s 3080GPU rendering. I don’t know if his settings are wrong. Do you know whether the 3080 or 3090 can support the latest DAZ version 4.12?
These cards are supported in DAZ Studio Public Beta 4.12.2.51 and make sure you use the latest Nvidia Drivers with the public beta build. Let me know how fast those renders are.👍
@@ParmyBaddhan I have purchased a 3090 computer with all the latest configurations. The cpu is I9 10900k. I am also looking forward to how fast it will be. I hope you will not be disappointed.
@@ParmyBaddhan Where can I get the version you mentioned? The version I downloaded from the daz official website is 4.12.1.118 (64-bit), and 3090GPU is checked separately. The software does not do any processing, and I directly store a blank picture. Your latest version should support 3090, thank you very much.
@@ParmyBaddhan I don't know where the problem is, I have reinstalled it many times, and it has always been version 4.12.1.118, which is a bit depressed and cannot be rendered with 3090GPU. Is there no higher version of this official link? Anyway, thank you very much for your reply.
Hi, I followed your video tutorial, but this time, I was trying to mesh the geometry of the two extra arms to my genesis 8 female character in blender. I exported the file as you did, then began to smooth out and fill the gaps in between the main body and the extra two arms successfully, but now my problem is the morph won't load into Daz3d, it says "the geometry is not the same". I am very lost here, please, if you see this message please help me🙁. Thank you and best wishes.
One big caveat to the morphing method is that you cannot add or remove geometry from the base model, doing so causes "the geometry is not the same" message to appear. If you want to add extra arms then you will have to use geografting.
@@ParmyBaddhan OK, but the issue here is that the Genesis 8 female character here already came with the extra two arms, but they don't mesh very very well the the main body of the Genesis 8 female, there are some open or broken geometry that I'm trying to fix with blender. I will try the graphting method to see if it works. Thanks for the reply.🙂
You can make dreads using Strand Based Hair inside Daz Studio. I have a video that can help you understand how to use Strand Based Hair, ua-cam.com/video/DjH1BnKzLmE/v-deo.html.
Thanks for your question. If a hair is dforce there will be dforce options in the surfaces tab for the hair. The dforce options are normally towards the bottom of the surfaces tab and are all labelled red.
Exporting Strand Based Dforce Hair is not a good idea since the geometry size is huge (500MB+). You can export Strand Based Hair into Blender, but it will be very slow to navigate in Blender. Non-strand based Dforce hair is ok to export into blender without any issues. I hope this helps.
@7:20 I have to slightly but respectfully have to disagree with you on that...yes ZBrush is good and it's the industry standard but if you but the time (not alot), effort and you're a good artist, it'll be hard to tell the difference. How do I know?....I use blender.
Thanks for sharing your opinion. I like it when people disagree with me. It would be a boring world if everyone just accepted what other people say at face value.
@@ParmyBaddhan No bro , I wasn't really disagreeing with you like that. Some people think that if you pay for something it has to be better. ZBrush is good but if someone is a good artist, they can create or make up for what Blender is lacking. It is like the old expression saying that "the clothes don't make the man."
I actually don't know about the render engines inside Blender because that is not my expertise. However I see your point the hair in Blender as it is in the tutorial looks really bad.
There are 3 reasons why this message appears: 1) Adding or removing geometry of the hair inside blender. 2) Not moving along the normals when sculpting the hair inside blender. 3) No setting the hair to base resolution inside Daz Studio. Try the above and let me know if this helped.
In general I like your content. But it really gets to much with those ads. 2 minutes in and I see all those add breaks so I stop watching right now. Trying to make money with YT is one thing. So much ads either drive people away or makes them use ad blockers and then you have nothing from those viewers. I try to support creators but this is too much.
Thanks for your sharing your thoughts. For ads I use whatever the default settings are that UA-cam provide when uploading the video. I don't change the placement of ads in the video at all. I too watch other UA-cam channels and understand the ads are there to support the creators, who are providing content for free to help me level up. So it is a necessary trade-off for free information, which I am willing to accept. I don't actually make as much money as you may think from UA-cam ads. It works out about £120 every 3 to 4 months. I believe the value you are getting from my videos makes up for the ads in the videos because you are levelling up your skills for free.
@@ParmyBaddhan As a creator you decide how much adds and you might have noticed that other creators set them to only appear every 10 minutes or so. I would rather take a paid course instead of watching 2minutes ads every 5 minutes.
@@ChristinaMcKay Thanks for your concern about Ads. You are the first one to complain about ads and I think the UA-cam algorithm has been more aggressive with this video because it is a longer video. If you do not wish to watch this video or anymore of my videos because of the ads then I am cool with that. Thank you for supporting the channel and if you wish to unsubscribe from the channel then please go ahead.
@@ParmyBaddhan which I did, because you don't seem to be interested what your viewers think. And I guess others don't complain because they use ad blockers and just don't care. I never wanted to do that, but it seems the only choice I have is either using a blocker or not watch your videos at all. Being that stubborn as a creator might be the reason you don't earn much money. And YT might be more aggressive on longer videos but it is your choice to go ahead with them or take the 2 minutes to change the settings.
@@ChristinaMcKay I'm not being stubborn. I'm just learning now that UA-cam is being more aggressive with mid-roll ads than I expected. I have disabled all mid-roll ads on all my UA-cam videos after doing some research. I don't earn much money via UA-cam because the ad revenue from UA-cam has been significantly decreased. I genuinely want to help people level up their skills. Thanks for supporting the channel for as long as you have.

@@louisbenedict75 did you make sure the genesis 8 eyelashes had been removed from the scene tab before exporting?
@@ParmyBaddhan yes, I hid them, eye lashes and eyebrows.
How do you make hair like dreads or braids
You can make dreads using Strand Based Hair inside Daz Studio. I have a video that can help you understand how to use Strand Based Hair, ua-cam.com/video/DjH1BnKzLmE/v-deo.html.
This tutorial did not disappoint! (۶•̀ᴗ•́)۶Great work and many thanks Parmy.
Glad you found the tutorial helpful.
Hey there !!! How do I know that it is or not a dforce hair?
Thanks for your question. If a hair is dforce there will be dforce options in the surfaces tab for the hair. The dforce options are normally towards the bottom of the surfaces tab and are all labelled red.
So theres no way to export dforce hair into blender... is there a way to transform a dforce hair into a NOT dforce hair to export it to blender?
Exporting Strand Based Dforce Hair is not a good idea since the geometry size is huge (500MB+). You can export Strand Based Hair into Blender, but it will be very slow to navigate in Blender. Non-strand based Dforce hair is ok to export into blender without any issues. I hope this helps.
Is it possible to crop the hair?
Does this also work for clothes?
Here is the tutorials for creating clothing morphs with blender. ua-cam.com/video/R38RSzZCRuE/v-deo.html
Stay On Topic
no me ha funcionado me da un error es posible q el error se deba a q estiro demaciado el cabello
@7:20 I have to slightly but respectfully have to disagree with you on that...yes ZBrush is good and it's the industry standard but if you but the time (not alot), effort and you're a good artist, it'll be hard to tell the difference.
How do I know?....I use blender.
Thanks for sharing your opinion. I like it when people disagree with me. It would be a boring world if everyone just accepted what other people say at face value.
@@ParmyBaddhan No bro , I wasn't really disagreeing with you like that. Some people think that if you pay for something it has to be better.
ZBrush is good but if someone is a good artist, they can create or make up for what Blender is lacking.
It is like the old expression saying that "the clothes don't make the man."
eevee hair got me ded
I actually don't know about the render engines inside Blender because that is not my expertise. However I see your point the hair in Blender as it is in the tutorial looks really bad.
@@ParmyBaddhan eevee doesn't allow light throught the strain, so your tutorial is really good, its just look weird with blender :D no hating
@@9words40 I agree it does look weird in blender.
"geometry did not match" :(
There are 3 reasons why this message appears:
1) Adding or removing geometry of the hair inside blender.
2) Not moving along the normals when sculpting the hair inside blender.
3) No setting the hair to base resolution inside Daz Studio.
Try the above and let me know if this helped.
In general I like your content. But it really gets to much with those ads. 2 minutes in and I see all those add breaks so I stop watching right now. Trying to make money with YT is one thing. So much ads either drive people away or makes them use ad blockers and then you have nothing from those viewers. I try to support creators but this is too much.
Thanks for your sharing your thoughts. For ads I use whatever the default settings are that UA-cam provide when uploading the video. I don't change the placement of ads in the video at all. I too watch other UA-cam channels and understand the ads are there to support the creators, who are providing content for free to help me level up. So it is a necessary trade-off for free information, which I am willing to accept. I don't actually make as much money as you may think from UA-cam ads. It works out about £120 every 3 to 4 months. I believe the value you are getting from my videos makes up for the ads in the videos because you are levelling up your skills for free.
@@ParmyBaddhan As a creator you decide how much adds and you might have noticed that other creators set them to only appear every 10 minutes or so. I would rather take a paid course instead of watching 2minutes ads every 5 minutes.
@@ChristinaMcKay Thanks for your concern about Ads. You are the first one to complain about ads and I think the UA-cam algorithm has been more aggressive with this video because it is a longer video. If you do not wish to watch this video or anymore of my videos because of the ads then I am cool with that. Thank you for supporting the channel and if you wish to unsubscribe from the channel then please go ahead.
@@ParmyBaddhan which I did, because you don't seem to be interested what your viewers think. And I guess others don't complain because they use ad blockers and just don't care. I never wanted to do that, but it seems the only choice I have is either using a blocker or not watch your videos at all.
Being that stubborn as a creator might be the reason you don't earn much money. And YT might be more aggressive on longer videos but it is your choice to go ahead with them or take the 2 minutes to change the settings.
@@ChristinaMcKay I'm not being stubborn. I'm just learning now that UA-cam is being more aggressive with mid-roll ads than I expected. I have disabled all mid-roll ads on all my UA-cam videos after doing some research. I don't earn much money via UA-cam because the ad revenue from UA-cam has been significantly decreased. I genuinely want to help people level up their skills. Thanks for supporting the channel for as long as you have.
