    And it's not at DAZ I think, I just filtered the store page for hair - V4 - owned.

     

    EDIT: Found it. Search for 'hair curlers' at Rendo, and two options come up, both for V4.

    Yup. I just found it (the one I have, and another).

    Oh seriously. From OCTOBER 2016 I just got an email from support. For Modern Kitchen @PerspectX  it had a countertop that didn't fit on the cabinets, I showcased it and pointed it out. It literally floats above them and from what I can tell, is rotated slightly so it may not just be a Y translation error. Support said they tested it and it had been fixed. NOT. Exact same as when I submitted it back in 2016. And there's nothing in the ReadMe Resolved Issue either.  In the promos- You can see it's not sitting squarely on there in the second thumb, (the counter closest, bottom left) and in the last one, it's the counter on your left, and if you look at it by the sink, you can tell it's not squarely sitting/ slighty wonky. When you get eye level with the slab, it's floating.

    This is the today render. Does that look fixed to you????

    ok so Support and I are ping ponging back and forth, I said no, not satisfied and sent the image. They answered and said it had been updated (didnt say when) but I keep things updated daily and I opened DIM, no update.  Can someone test this kitchen and look at that counter? (Before I chat with Support again.)

    Could I ask a favor, if anyone picks up https://www.daz3d.com/jonah-hd-for-ollie-8, could you show him without Ollie? I unfortunately as unable to get Ollie when he came out but i like the texture on this character, and am wondering what the morphs look like without Ollie's uniqueness. Thanks in advance!

    I'd like to see the face rendered closeup at a couple of angles as the 'bumpiness' of the face just doesn't look right in place (nose bulb and below the right side of the mouth for example). Maybe it's just my eyes playing tricks but I've bought several PA products at DAZ 3D and  Rendo lately that have had texture set problems.

    It looks to me like he has some sort of fiberhair peach fuzz on him, especially on the nose and his jawline. I can see some oddness below the right side of his mouth though now that you mention it. Maybe the MR he's based on had some stubble on it that wasn't removed? That's kind of what it looks like to me, but I have been know to be wrong.

    I'd help but I didn't buy him. Hopefully someone who did can show you.

    Okay, thanks to a PM from Mary (who doesn't post on the forums but does surf the threads) it has been verified that counter is indeed still floating in Modern Kitchen. (She used Camera 5)  Thanks so much Mary!

    Support is fast. They agreed the problem still exists, and  have kicked the Modern Kitchen back to QA.

    This my take on the 50's chair:

    Description

    We all sit as wall flowers at some point in our life. Get out and get your color on. :-)
    ***
    We had an old chair similar to this. But, I did not like the legs on this at least for this image. I set opacity to 0 for the legs and attachment and add "The Tavern" Bar stool as it was close to home. less

    Made with...

  • NovicaNovica Posts: 23,887

    Ooh, I like the chair and legs combination. The silver and white really accentuates nicely against the pink. The dress drapes beautifully!

    Thank you @novica. I think the chair has cool morphs but not so cool legs. Changable legs would have been a cool addition!

    I went ahead and bought Jonah, even though I don't have Ollie. He's hella buff without Ollie, and his head morph at 100% is a bit odd. IMO he looks fine around 70%, and I do love the freckles on his skin. So, I'll keep him, and wishlist Ollie for later.

    Since my laptop that can do Iray is currently occupied, here are a few simple 3DL renders of him. Do bear with me as i am absolute crap at 3DL, and this is my back up old-as-balls XP laptop so these renders will be small.

    Head at 62%

    Head at 100%

    Body/head 100%

    So, not a bad character for $10. I can't wait to get him into Iray, and really make those freckles SHINE!

    @zombietaggerung   Good lighting choice for him, really shows his physique.

     

  • zombietaggerungzombietaggerung Posts: 3,726

    @Novica Thank you. It's just an Uber area light and a distant light turned way down. I wish I could have got eye refletions, but i could never figure that out in 3DL.

    Popped in to your gallery, love this one!

    Thank you. I really do love the yellow lab for "The Unmentionable Dog", it looks just like my childhood dog Goober. heart

    Thanks. I have Ollie but i noticed that I need a younger character in the same caricature style so I'll buy him too. Thanks a lot.

    This is the gallery image I finally made with it. I didn't have quite the same scaling issues you had. My pose was more reclined. In the end, I zoomed in and you can't see his feet anyway. Do you like his hairdo?

    dForce ready hair????

    Hmmmm. I wonder what would happen if I applied dForce to the nails.

    Bent nails?

    I wouldn't want to be in the room when the explosion goes off. Like a Claymore.

    The nails didn't explode. If fact, there is just one nail and a bunch of instances. The nails are twisted and ridged. It is kind of interesting. Woody has wavy hair now. It is rendering now, but won't be done until tomorrow, probably. I took a screenshot of his partially rendered head.
