The “New Category Path” dialog will display and be populated with the full path of the selected category. To create a category path, right-click a category and click the “Create Category Path…” action in the menu. To help you differentiate between the default categories and any user categories you might create, the icon for each user-created category is styled differently from the defaults and marked with a “U.” The updated dialog removes the top-level “Categories” column, as well as the “Default” column unless a user category has been created as a sibling to the “Default” category. However, when the “Categorize” dialog appears, you now see the categories that the selected asset is assigned to, such as the Lights category if a light asset were selected, in a way that is consistent with what is displayed in the Category View. The way you get there is still the same simply right-click an asset and select “Categorize…” in the context menu. One of the ways you categorize assets has been improved.
HOW TO USE DAZ STUDIO 4.9 PRO UPDATE
With Daz Connect, Daz Studio connects to the Daz 3D servers and retrieves the latest metadata for the products you own.Īnother new feature included in this update is a change to the “ownership” of the “Lost and Found” subcategories and the assets assigned to them this allows you to modify the categorization of these assets and even remove the subcategories themselves so that you can organize your content the way that works best for you.
In order to make cleaning things up and getting updates to that data easier, Daz Studio 4.9 introduced Daz Connect. As you may know from past experiences, older products sometimes have incorrect or incomplete data, products from other sources may have no metadata at all, and sometimes categories are updated or added to a product after the fact. The Smart Content pane relies on metadata to sort and organize your content into categories. Although results may vary, turning Off the “Filter By Context” option lets you try those older products on newer characters.īoth the Smart Content and Content Library panes are updated to enhance the various ways Daz Studio users can organize their content. This allows you to apply content originally built for one figure (e.g., Genesis 2) onto another figure (e.g., Genesis 3). This is a great way to see all products you own, regardless of scene selection, and it provides access to content that was not specifically built for your selection but may be a suitable candidate for Auto-Fit. Turning off the “Filter By Context” option shows you all of the products you own, regardless of whether or not they are currently installed, as well as all of the installed files for your products. Similarly, once you have added hair to your character, the Smart Content pane automatically filters to show accessories and hair colors (materials) that work with that specific hair object. For instance, after adding a figure to the scene, selecting the “Hair” category in the Category View shows hair in the Results View that fits this figure. The 4.9 update now also includes a “Filter By Context” option ( on the Files Page and separately on the Products Page), that lets you disable this filtering behavior and allows you to see content that may not be strictly built to work with the selected object. In earlier versions, the Smart Content pane displayed filtered assets/products based on compatibility with the selected object and assigned content types. The render engine updates in this release include performance improvements, bug fixes, and (in the case of the NVIDIA Iray renderer) a few changes that improve the overall quality of your renders. This allows you to browse products you have not purchased, which are filtered based on content you already have installed and you are currently working with. You can also now purchase products directly within Daz Studio and put the new product-centric workflow to work for you. Now, directly within the application, you can find, install, and update products you have already purchased. In 4.9 we have added new features that help you manage and maintain content purchased with your Daz 3D account and uses a new content delivery service: Daz Connect. A considerable portion of the changes and improvements included in this update are targeted specifically at browsing and managing your content. Along with various bug fixes, this update provides artists with new tools and workflow improvements that enhance ease of use and efficiency. Daz 3D strives to provide the ultimate user experience in each update of the Daz Studio application.
