I recently installed both of these and both versions run and creates textures for the body legs and arms but not the faces of the character. Anyone know what the problem might be?
thanksI use the G8 version and don't have any problems with it. Have you tried changing the location SB stores it's temporary files and are you selecting the "Full" preset when you're saving your skin?
I changed the store location (running short on my daz drive) but havent tried the full preset, will give that a shot
thanksZev0 did update his skin builder 8 to support 8.1. have a look at its resolved issues list: http://docs.daz3d.com/doku.php/public/read_me/index/54677/start
so perhaps someone may want to re-request a skin builder 8 updated version in the request thread
edit: actually someone did: https://zonegfx.com/forums/topic/skin-builder-8-for-genesis-8-females-update-2021-04-05/ and it's filled. but the filler hasn't been online for at least 2 months now
@slender331man, The changelog says:
2021-02-17 - Updated:
Added fix for when viewport is in Filament preview which it is not designed for and causes issues.
Script now auto changes to Iray preview while skin building process occurs if viewport was in Filament preview.
Added proper blocker to not work on 8.1 base.
Update made to Merchant Resource Agreement regarding use for Genesis Female 8.1Which reads to me that the update actually blocks SB from running on a 8.1 figure. A quick search of the Daz forums seems to say the same thing.
guess I probably missed that proper blocker thing and just straight up saw the genesis 8.1 keyword and interpreted as supported. my mistake.
well then we'll see if the author will update it for 8.1 or not.
@slender331man Thanks. Guess I'll have to send a message, and just hope that next time they come on they'll send me a link for points.
Are the textures for Gen 8 the same as Gen 8.1? I noticed all the files for the Skin Builder are in jpg format so worst case load them into gimp or photoshop and do the 8.1 skins there for now.
The workaround suggested on the Daz thread I read suggested building a skin on G8, then loading it onto your G8.1 figure. I don't use 8.1 but I think 8.1 uses different mat names and UVs but also has an option to use 8.0 UVs as well, so mats are transferable from 8.0 to 8.1 but not vice-versa.
