Description

I had several requests for an animate-able mechanical bull for DAZ. Apparently because of the way in which DAZ Studio handles XYZ rotations, getting a simple bull to buck and spin without twisting has been an issue for a while. To overcome this, I basically just cheated the problem and made the bull go up and down and rock…and attached it to a spin-able gyro base to keep the spinning motion level (so it doesn’t tilt when bull rocks). So surprise, surprise—you can actually animate this mechanical bull in DAZ Studio!

I also created a digital control kiosk for it and the cushioned padding that surrounds it is higher detail than normal so it renders with some very realistic creases and wrinkles. The kit loads altogether as a sub-scene so all individual items will remain parented and positioned correctly.

In addition to the base props, the bull also comes with removable eyes that glow and my “dubious penetrator” for any female riders. That’s why this mechanical bull is dubious! Ha, ha! You may remove or turn off the penetrator if you want just a simple mechanical bull. The penetrator will load in the hidden position. There is a preset option to turn its light off and make them chrome instead to completely conceal the dubious option. The control kiosk screen has multiple display options both with and without dubious options.

To top the new product off, I’ve included pose presets for the G8 and G9 female figures including basic rider and dubious poses. There are also two pose presets to position someone in front of the control kiosk. As usual, all poses, materials and presets are located inside the DUBIOUS BULL’s main directory file. I do that so you don’t have to go digging for them in various other places. Everything you need to use the prop is found right there in one spot. You’re welcome!
