First up that is regular or conforming hair. I'd hate to think what the render time would have been for dynaimc hair and SSS lol And a prime example of why I wish I had 4 more of this comp. 

The problem with dynamic wigs; if you will, is they don't remain consistent. To see what I mean spend some time styling the hair, save just the hair, then drop it on another figure. Ya, but short hair could easily be done with just a dynaimc hair shader rather then a full dynaimc hair set. Not sure why we don't see a lot of that.

This comp continues to amaze me, it's stats aren't great; i5 and 6 gig, but it's a serious work horse; gateways usually are. I've had Studio working on dynamic clothing while carrara was rendering, and watching a show waiting on both. Not a skip, glitch, or slow down. So that aprilamarseda hair doesn't cause me much slow down. Using that same hair in previous comps would bring a render to a stand still.

But as amazing as hair looks with SSS unless you are doing a close up portrate it's not really worth the quite extended render times. Clothes with SSS; which makes sheer, see though clothes more real, don't take near the render time hit because of the hair transparencies.

Having more fun. Bought the animate runway construction set; model walks and poses, and was working with it yesterday. I was working on having V5 walk through optitex curtains wareing an optitex dynamic dress. Optitex dynamics don't respect each others surfaces like they did in DS3 so the dress and curtains kept snaging on each other. 3 hours of trying yesterday and all I had to show for it was a bad headache; got myself just a bit worked up. It looks like I am just going to have to forget about a graphics card for a bit and get Animate2 for Studio. I've just needed it too often not to have it; and it's onsale right now for as low as I've seen it. If I want this animation to work I'm going to have to tweek the aniblock. Of coarse then I could fix the genesis foot and toe issue; most aniblocks seem to be for mil4 figures so the can do nasty things to genesis, G2  feet and hands.

Don't get me started on NLA clips. If they worked dependably DAZ would be selling NLAblocks

Today it's suposed to rain all day so I can't continue my spring prep of the yard so I guess I will be forced to work with these frustrating apps all day
