Hey there, unfortunately I seem to be having some issues with Dicktator (both G3M and G8M) along with the Texture Wizard. The Texture Wizard comes with UV maps allowing you to use genital textures from G3M/G8M on Dicktator, which works great for the most part. However, i've recently tried using Jepe's BodyHair Project 78 for G3M and G8M, which comes with matching genital hair textures, and unfortunately there are some noticeable seams where the UV mapping just isn't quite there, especially on the backside.

Hum, I tested it but I could nor reproduce the bug. When you hide Jepe's shell the bug is gone?


BTW Jepe's shell offset is 0.1, and Texture Wizard's is 0.02 (in order to avoid shadows in the blending area). So Jepe's shell comes one layer up Texture Wizard's one. If you want it to be the other way around you may edit the 'offset distance'  value in the Parameters tab with the shell selected in the scene, for example TW 0.03, Jepe's 0.02.

Which bodyhair textures are you using? Because i'm trying to use the "With Genitals" textures that include actual genital textures for a more natural blend (JPBH78-Gens01.jpg and JPBH78-Gens02.jpg).


EDIT: Also, what gens are you using there? Because that doesn't look like Dicktator (which is what i'm using).

I can't get Jepe's hair project to work at all with Dicktator. What is the workflow to use them together?

Add Dicktator as you normally word (including geoshell), then add the bodyhair geoshell, apply the preset you want with the bodyhair geoshell selected, then use the surface tab to manually add the correct genital hair textures to the bodyhair geoshell*. That's what I did anyway.


* Specifically, apply the default iray shader to the dicktator parts of the bodyhair shell, copy-paste the shader settings from the torso, then manually replace the nessecary textures with the genital hair textures.

Ok, here is the fix:

https://www.dropbox.com/...if8ww3c/JepeFIX.zip?dl=0

Included is a new UV map for G8M dicktator, called G3M_G8M gens UVs 2, and a png in order to mask the anus edges.

This is how I set Jepe's hairs with Dicktator... ntngear way, with other words and one more step at the end ;)

1 - Setup G8M, load Dicktator, its shell, and set up its materials as usual;
2 - Load Jepe's bodyhair shell, and on it a hair texture preset WITH genitals;
3 - Select G8M Bodyhair Shell in the scene, in the surface tab select the Torso surface. Copy the surface or save it as a shader preset.
4 - With G8M Bodyhair Shell selected, in the surface tab select all dicktator surfaces holding shift. Paste the material (you may have to apply a basic IRAY shader first) or apply the saved shader preset. In the UV set slot, select G3M_G8M gens UVs 2
5 - If you see the anus in the render, we need to blur Jepe's hair edge. With G8M Bodyhair Shell selected, in the surface tab select Dicktator_Genitalia_G8M_Rectum & Torso_Back, select Layered Image Editor for the cutout opacity texture. Add a layer with the mask provided in the zip.

There is a second way, involving using Jepe's hairs without genitals on Dicktator, with the default UVs. You then need to mask the shaft and the anus. I like the results of the first way better, so I'll skip it. ;)

Hi, just wanted to report that the new UV map works great! Thanks a bunch! Would it be possible to port it to the G3M version of Dicktator also?
