Ok so I decided to use this critter for a render since I had it. I put it in the scene and posed it and figured it was all good even though I had to use old poser mats fr it....... WRONG! First it glowed like a light bulb in the dark so I went back in and changed the ambient on it to 0 but now it looks like the silly thing is made of liquid metal, which is cool and all but NOT the effect I want.


Anyone know some settings that will make the thing's textures show up without making it look like the T-1000?

On another note while writing up this post I wrote lightbulb which is incorrect it is two words but i clicked the incorrect word just in case and got three options light bulb (which I used) light-bulb and bullfight......WAIT BULLFIGHT? WTF was the coder thinking on THAT ONE?

    Which program are you working in.
    Have you checked the reflection settings, in DS I often find that poser settings have high reflections.

    Yup the reflection settings were at about 50% rendering it out now to see if that did it.

    I have a set of D|S materials presets for 002-Havoc that someone came up with several months ago. Can't find the .zip I got them in, and I can't remember the name to search in what's left of the old forums. They do look pretty good in D|S, though. Can anyone remember more details?

    Maybe the ones I made for it a few months back, if it is you can download them from here I think I put a readme in there but I made them in Daz Studio 3 Advanced so I may have to update the readme for studio 4 but not sure.

    here is the link to the presets you do need the high res expansion as these are only presets that I did.

    lol Instead of following the install readme included in the zip just unzip the presets and copy or move the folder into your "My Libray" folder you will find them in DS4 in your Daz Studio formats,My Library under "Sals Havoc DS Mats"

    hope this helps.. :)
