reality 4/ lux render issues
hey everyone!
just got reality 4 and and the lux render doesn't render the genesis "male anatomy". everything renders but that. the model renders with the triangular hole. when i look in the resource folder everything is listed but that. reality's material list has it listed as "seen". i just made a set of tan line marks for different styles of male swimwear for the m5 genesis character. i was going to render the poses with all the different looks. what gives? i tried fitted and non-fitted. parented and non-parented and mixtures of both. is it a light issue? does something have to be addressed in the surfaces tab? is it not finding the .obj ? is it a node issue? nothing comes up in the log either. thanks! i'm working on farmer tans and sunburn now. luv it! i'm just using the skin texture .jpgs and manipulating them in photo-paint. i don't think i can post the end product here for you guys to see. no problems with 3Delight.

happy holidays everyone!
i'm having issues with reality4 and the lux render. why won't the genesis m5 male anatomy render? everything in the scene renders but that. just a black triangle. i tried fitting and non fitting, parenting and not and combos of each. is it the geometry? a light issue? humm. do i need super glue? could it be that when i delete a character from a scene and put it back on the shelf until i need it again, the anatomy remains in the scene? i just made a set of tan lines for the m5 genesis character for different styles of swimwear just manipulating the skin tex jpgs.in photo-paint. wow! i got this great render system now to show off these great tan lines and i ended up with eunuchs modeling them. i guess i could turn them around but there is a skin tex for the gens as well to make them look more real. 3delght is fine but lux is better. anyone to the rescue? if not, i'll just turn them around looking backwards at the camera with goofy grins. lol thanks!
sorry folks about the double message i had a phone call and i thought the first one timed out and got lost in cyberspace...
Hi, I'm having a similar problem with Victoria, I get an error about her lips and it renders with all the textures except the lips which are white
Firstly the Geo-Graft for Genesis male gens (G1 & G2) are not imported correctly by R4. This is a known bug and is slated to be fixed in a future update.
In regard to the lips, I've seen an issue where the material for lips isn't correctly converted. A quick fix which may work, assuming you are having the same problem, is to right-click the lips and change "To Skin". Lips are set to Glossy (non SSS) by default, but you will need them set to Skin for the next step to work. Then click on the SkinFace material and Ctrl-C (or go to the edit menu and click Copy), then click on the Lip material and Ctrl-Alt-V paste (edit menu: Paste with textures). Have a look at the preview for the lips and see if it looks as it should.
thanks. will wait for the update.
I've had the lips issue too but the suggested fix sorts it OK. I'm also having trouble whenever I select a transparent background. I get a log message saying "Premultipled Alpha enabled but alpha channel was not selected for OpenEXR, forcing alpha channel in output" and as a result the image does not have a transparent background.
