Deadlyforce Posted February 6, 2016 Share Posted February 6, 2016 I did a forums search and the only Daz topic was from 4 years. I downloaded Daz Studio 4.9 Pro for free and it looks real promising. Only played around with it for about two hours but exported a character into Leadwerks fine. Anyone using Daz Studio 4.9 Pro? It seems easier than Blender. Blender gives me a headache trying to do anything in it. I'm trying to figure out what program to really get into and learn without spending 100's of dollars.

macklebee Posted February 6, 2016 Share Posted February 6, 2016 The problem in the past with using DAZ models for games was due to the ridiculous amounts of polygons used for characters (+500K was not unusual). I do not know if that has changed in recent years as it appears they have introduced a decimator to help reduce polys... Curious to see if its useable now.

Deadlyforce Posted February 6, 2016 Author Share Posted February 6, 2016 Decimator cost $100.00. Which is not bad as you can really control exactly how many ploygons you want and since Daz Studio is free. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cassius Posted February 7, 2016 Share Posted February 7, 2016 I think the idea is you get the basic software free but then have to pay for addons that make it more usefull.

Einlander Posted February 7, 2016 Share Posted February 7, 2016 Doesn't daz have another product specifically for games now? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nick.ace Posted February 7, 2016 Share Posted February 7, 2016 Yeah, but I think it's just a $500 license for indie studios or something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deadlyforce Posted February 7, 2016 Author Share Posted February 7, 2016 Yeah, but I think it's just a $500 license for indie studios or something. That's too bad because I really like the program. I read IClone 6 license agreement and there you "own" the work you do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xtom Posted February 10, 2016 Share Posted February 10, 2016 Iclone and their character creator look good but it's over $1000 if you want to use it for exporting animated characters into a game, although at the mo it's reduced to (a still expensive) $699.
