Links To DAZ 3-D/Poser Packages

Right I thought it might be useful for people to post up links for Mr. Lunarwolf to packages he could use in his 3-D modelling. Here's a few I've found:

MERGE VISIBLE: BIG CAT

Might be useful for: Anyone wanting to start a Cathar character.

MERGE VISIBLE: SCALES

Might be useful for: Falleen, Trandoshan and other reptilian beings. For more also see the following:

REPTILE SKIN FOR THE FREAK
MERGE VISIBLE: SNAKE
DEVOURER FOR MICHEAL 3 & THE FREAK
REPTILLIAD FOR M4

SHAGGY TROLL

Might be useful for: Wookiees and other hairy beasties. Also see the following:

APE WORLD

UNIVERSAL ALIEN

Might be useful for: Any alien really. Nautolan, Rodian, anything!

THE CORE

Might be useful for: Buildings, backgrounds etc. Also see the following:

SECTOR 15
THE TIN CAN


I admit that I know practically nothing about how these things might work but I thought it might be useful to LW. Also, please remember that Lunarwolf is kindly paying for these with his own money, so if you can, sub him some cash and chip in for a package.

Ooooh! Nice find! Thanks for the rumaging SS! I spy a Trandoshan skin about!

nice find SS.

Cheers SS!

I spend hours each day trawling for this stuff - if people can find specifics it would make my life SO much easier!

Werewolf Skins

For the Shistavanen. And it's free!

Yeah I just linked LW to some of them. Didn't think about a Shistavanen though!

Well I've already found a skin that would suit my Falleen perfectly:



Strangely enough it wasn't in the Scales package but in the Universal Alien one. Something tells me that package would be the most useful. Oh yeah one question for you LW, do you have to download these packages or do you get them sent you in the mail when you order them?

Yeah thats pretty much Falleen all over really, isnt it?

In answer to your question - you download them.

I think if you are getting them from

Daz3d or
Renderosity (which is where I get a lot of my stuff from)

you can purchase them as a "gift" for someone else's account.

If anyone is feeling patictulary generous, my account names are:

Daz3d = LW79
Renderosity = Lunarwolf79


ps: Shistavanen ROCK.

Right I can do The Falleen for

$36.90 / £25.09.

I already own all the M3 Requirement pre-meshes and models
That'll be unlimited pictures, poses etc limited only by my spare time!

I dont expect you to pay that, chief - thats a lot of money for pictures of your char!
For me though, its part of a growing hobby so happy to fork out for it as a long-term investment.

I'll purchase Universal Alien Pack and Scales pack once payday rolls round on 21st May.


That means I should also be able to do a Trandoshan with only some minor tinkering and screaming at the screen

Woohoo!
But seriously, if it's going to cause you stress or anything, don't bother Thanks in any case!

Its ok, H2 - I'm happy to do it. "Screaming at the screen" is all part of the process.

It says here that I can get Unicversal Aliens for for $19.95 (£13.57) though. Whys the price different on yours?

lol the price I stated was for Universal Aliens ($19.95) AND Merge Visible:Scales ($16.95).

Soz for the confusion!

LOL! I was gonna say! Yooz has been robbed!!!

I have to say after seeing some of the models I'm quite interested in having a go at soem stage too. I'm stupidly crap with these kinda things but there seems to be a lot of help on offer, unlike PS! If I do start can we swap packages at all? I'm not really sure how it all works but I'm all ears!

Yes of course! (Though I have racked up over 2gigs worth already! ) Some packages are tiny (a few hundred K to a couple of megs) but some can be 200meg or more, but still - its shouldnt be a problem. Worst case scenario is later down the line I compile a DVD full of stuffs and post it to ya.

On a side note, on the thought of "promotional" pictures, what do you think of 2 Posters, one "Republic" and one "Empire", a kind of "which side will you choose" kind of thing? I was thinking of having 3-4 chars on each one, with a slightly varied (themed) republic / empire backdrop, both with the Guild Motto underneath?

Maybe Creed surrounded by Masu, Ree etc on a republic ('Light') one

and

Faleen (when he's done) surrounded by Lilin, Ne'tra etc on an empire ('Dark') one?

Well I've just downloaded the programme but I haven't got a clue where to start. Do you know if there are any video tutorials at all? I really don't know why I start these things! I never have the time to actually go through with them.

Yeah the split faction promotional poster might be an idea, but it'd be cool to have them split but in the same picture if you see what I mean? Maybe one half could be all the good guys and the other half all the bad guys with the Falleen looming over the top in the middle? Does that make any sense?

It's just that if we are doing the idea of departments, which I think is now the way I've decided we should go, I don't want the seperate divisions to feel completely isolated from each other. I still want the impression that we're still a single guild.

There probably are, but I never found them. First thing you want to do is download the free base of "Michael" (also known as M followed by a version Prefix, such as M3, M4 etc) or "Victoria" then start fiddling. The software only comes with a very limited set of models though, so prepare for some major searching / downloading.

Yeah I know EXACTLY where you're coming from.

ooOOooOOoo! is that official? is there gonna be a thread announcement and everything?

Well I'm becoming more and more attached to the idea I have to say. I think it'd be great for RP anyways.

By the way check your messages.

!!!! Its not my birthday for another 2 weeks! Cheers Chief!

(for anyone outside of our PM conversation, SS just gave me some 3d goodies to get on with)

I still grumble about it. I think we have to wait until we announce this, after all, if there's a speech boundry between the two factions, it's definately not worth doing at all.

Thanks for going along with Skursir, Lunar! On the promotional poster, perhaps we could shove him in there? Perhaps back to back with Creed, so Creeds on the Republic side, Skursir's on the Sith. Then we have all the females around! It's just a thought, what do you guys think?

P.S. You have the description of Skursir on his wiki page

Woot!

You know, Boss, my digital art package has almost ran out blue pixels (and they're the most expensive)........??

LMAO! What is it with you people this week. Thats the 2nd time I've had my mind read! Check your PM's.

Woah! Check out THIS LOT mate! Tons of stuff and it's all free! Shame most of it is in the Rebellion Era but there must be some you can use?

Excellent Find! totally bookmarked that mofo!

They are the mutz! Another great find. My expectations have soooo been raised, LW!

I have some more!

STORMTROOPER
IG-88
JAWA

The IG-88 one is a bit useless but it looked so cool I had to add it! The trooper one may be good for armour though. Oh and last but not least Jawas, purely there for being the best small people ever!
