Crash Site

in Daz Studio Discussion

Hi everyone!

I'm trying to create a crash site similar to the one in the attached image, but I want to experiment with different shapes instead of just the usual circular impact crater. For instance, I'm thinking about making a giant hand or footprint crash site. Does anyone have tips or techniques on how to do this in DAZ Studio? Are there specific tools or resources I should be using to customize the shape of the crash site?

    Here's an example of what I mean

    Doing it in Daz Studio will be a hassle.

    DS is not a modeller, although you might do something with a large plane with dForce and/or DFormer.

    I would recommend to use a modeller to create it.

    Optionally, make an initial shape with a plane. You can use Smoothing Modifier with setting Collision item with the plane + figure. Then export / import as an object or a morph (with OBJ + Morph Loader Pro).

    Then finetune it with Mesh Grabber , DFormer etc... or sent to external software that you know for further sculpting.

    When creating the plane you need more divisions. You don't have enough vertex geometry in your example.

    What number should I set on divisions?

    Check this short video of how-to : https://mega.nz/file/3DpmkZba#LyeKoqQwhiQlaupcchFbJG0lmK9q1JpziJ9xSTL2A_s

    I set a 160 divisions on a 3 ~ 4 meters plane. The more divisions you set, the more details you're gonna have.
