I need a little help with the "Dicktator For Genesis 8 Male" product. I'm also a new user of DAZStudio, so the problem is most likely me not being familiar with DS interfaces. 


I want to add veins to the erect dictator, but it does not seem to work. I choose the shell, click a Shell DK Veins preset for IRay, and veins do not show up when I render. I tried the hint of increasing render SubD in parameters, but could not find anything called SubD in the parameters tab. In Surfaces, there is a "SubD Displacement" and I tried that but it too did not work. The textures for the male copy over to Dicktator, but the extra textures and "Wild Breeds" also do not load when I select the shell and try to load them.


Can you help this new to DS user?


Thanks for the awesome product,


Velsh

As you can see the cock is unchanged. Perhaps some veins show up and are being washed out by the lights, but the reptilian texture also does not load.


Thanks for your help.

I don't wanna step on anyone's toes here, and hard to know for sure without scene collapsed down to see parenting or the surfaces tab visible.

However, that looks like just the base layer Mat Copy texture, with no shell at all showing.
This usually happens when the shell was applied with the DCK graft selected in scene instead of the Genesis Figure. A common oversight.

If this is the case.
Deleting the shell from the scene,
then selecting the Genesis Figure
and reapplying the Shell,
should make it show any new shell customizations properly.
Edit : making sure to also then have the shell selected when reapplying effects of coarse.


Hope it helps.

That seems to have done the trick! Many thanks Gent for helping this DazStudio newbie.


Thanks also Meipe for the excellent product.
