Renderotica

I would like to start a topic not only for my knowledge but for everyone else who wants to achieve these effects. What I am asking is people that have successfully achieved the effects of making the body sweat and their private parts wet (from starting to get wet to oh shit its Niagra falls wet) to include their settings, steps etc to help people like myself learn and do these effect inside of Daz Studio.

I just got the wet and tan skin bundle over at Daz and learning how to try to use that its a process but I think I am getting there at least with the body, not the private parts yet. Here is some of the products I am trying to achieve these effects with and some other products that have an option to apply a wet body setting I have yet to get to work well (I think its a lighting issue with these products.

I have GP, and New Gens how can I get the wet effect to transfer on to the Gens properly. I use the Control Panel works fine on the body but if I have one of the Gen Products selected it does not recognize it. I figured out how to copy and paste textures to them from the Torso but does not seem to always transfer the effects I want on the Gen. (Most likely I am doing something wrong).

Also in relation to the above sometimes I only want their private parts wet not the rest of the body what do people do to achieve this with the wet and tan set?

I also have some of the Money Shotz and pro cum pack and they have an option to set the body to wet but when I apply it does not appear to do anything or really hard to tell if the body is wet. What do people do to get this to work is it a lighting issue?

Lighting I am pretty sure Lighting can really make or break the effect of wetness what lighting setup and placement do people use to get a good result?

If anyone uses the above products or other products to get these effects please post a step by step or pictures of settings they use to make things look good. Hopefully this can become a useful topic people can contribute to or find solutions they are looking for. 

Yes, the shells have been tricky at time, GP shell fixer works most of the time, I have had some times where it only fixed the partially haven't figured out why yet.

So far been testing the GP trying to get some standard settings I can post here in this topic for everyone to use as a base setting. So far the wet and tan seem to give me the most control. I been just pasting the settings in the surface tab to GP and gives me the "WET" dials to play with. It does not give you the control panel for wet and tan so you do have to adjust manually. 

I have also tried to use the wet skin in Blowbang and Pro Cum pack 3 but it does leave some brown splotching artifacts which could be do to lighting issues cause if I turn the camera around the figure the artifacts seem to disappear. 

Also in the Pussy Wizard pack that was made for GP doing the Clossiness on top of wet and tan seems to give a good result as well. There is also a feature to to flatten the texture which I have not tried yet but might do that later today it will elimate the shells on GP I think and that may make it a bit easier to work with if you have 2 less shells to get in the way. 

Yes I use the wet and tan from daz along with other wet skin effects. I did figure out the copy and paste based on this thread topic here is the link:

The steps in that thread tend to work in most cases on various geo shells. I recently used the copy and paste method on my Used image with the dirt effect. In that image, her whole body was dirty except around her naughty area was perfectly clean. I used the steps in that link to copy the dirt geo shell and worked perfectly. 

Also, there seems to varying results depending on what wet skin (geo shell) you are using as well as which genital prop you are using. For example, the steps in the above link seem not to work with the default daz genitals or at least I have not found a positive result in copy and pasting.

Lastly the best results I have had with these products

Golden Palace

The wet skin from Lindsay wet clothes 

Aeon souls dirty skin shaders

These products seem to play nice with each other.
