A pair of models of a triangle style ladies' bikini swimsuit top and bottom, rigged in DAZ Studio for Genesis 8/8.1 Female. Top: 997 polys, Bottom: 1128 polys. This is a modified version of my original Low Rider Bikini, with some of the geometry optimized for characters with large breasts - the strings spanning the valley between the breasts and the air gap at the outside of each breast. Includes wearable presets for loading the top and bottom separately or together. A good assortment of Iray materials are included, as well as some shaders that allow for various degrees of transparency simulating thread weave. NB: the material files included are shared with my various other swimsuit models.
Heya, folks! I finally got my demon character Innalech mostly ported over to G9, so I'm throwin' his feets out here. I'm still very nervous about sharing stuff, and this is nowhere near perfect, but I figured if it was me I'd want it anyway. Please let me know if there are any errors and I'll do my best to fix them!
New rule: The use of image generating AI technology (midjourney, stable diffusion, DAZ AI Studio, etc.) is not allowed. The use of items (freebies or paid) that have been created with such technology is also not allowed. We realise it's not always easy to tell; let's all use our best judgement, and you can always ask the person hosting the contest if you're not sure.
1. A minimum of (5) Freebies must be included in your image along with Links to the freebies you have used. For an item to be considered free it must be offered as a freebie for the whole month. The exception to this rule is all Daz Bi-Weekly Freebies will be allowed throughout the entire month in which they are free as well as the month following their release as a freebie (For a total of 2 months). Also, if a freebie is broken down into multiple downloads/links/parts (IE like if the freebie is broken down into 3 zips etc...)it only counts as 1 freebie, not 3.
2. There will be a Maximum of 5 purchased items.
3. Base figures (All Gen 2,3,4, and Genesis 1,2,3) as well as their general morphs packs (Morphs++ and similar) do not count as a purchased item or a freebie and may be used as needed
4.Your Rendered Picture must be a new render and postwork is allowed but you MUST include a before and after Postwork versions of your entry in the Entry Thread.
5. All DAZ 3D Programs are allowed (IE Bryce, Carrara, Daz Studio and Hexagon) plus Poser for the contest.
6. All entries are subject to the Daz3D TOS Found Here: Terms Of Service
7. You may enter a Maximum of 4 Entries per month.
8. You may edit your entry as much as you like in the main thread but once it is posted to the "Entries Thread" it may not be further modified. Also, if you edit or add things, be sure you update any links or freebie changes you make.
9. The use of image generating AI technology (midjourney, stable diffusion, etc.) is not allowed. The use of items (freebies or paid) that have been created with such technology is also not allowed.

In my time using DAZ Studio, I've found several different scripts on the web that purport to automate setting a camera's focal distance for renders making use of depth of field. Problem is, every last one of them calculates the focal distance incorrectly. They all compute the length of the direct vector from the camera to the selected target. Unless the target is located exactly along the camera's facing vector, this will always result in back-focusing the camera (often by considerable amounts - even meters or more). The correct way to calculate the focal distance is to determine the length of the vector from the camera to a plane that intersects the target location and is perpendicular to the camera's facing vector.
Additionally, these scripts typically get the location the the target itself incorrect. Some simply use the raw target location. While this is fine for objects that are a single point (such as Studio's Null object), it's almost never what you want for setting the focal distance for any object with volume. For example, the object origin of most DAZ figures is down just below their feet. This is great for adjusting a figure to look like it is standing on a surface, but for setting focal distance? Not so much... Other scripts take the center location of the object's bounding box. This also leads to inaccurate focal distances. Take the eyes of a figure, for example. The center of the bounding box is inside the eye, not on the eye surface. Using the centroid results in back-focusing by around a centimeter. If you selected the head itself instead of one of the eyes, you'd end up back-focusing by several centimeters. If the camera is far away, this might not be noticeable, but if you're doing a close-up portrait, where DoF is much narrower, that translates into a pretty huge critical focus error.
