    For anyone that owns this product, I'm wondering how it works and if it is even worth the purchase. I've had bad experiences with 'soft body dynamics' and I feel that this is just another gimmick product.

    Eh, I was going to rant and wrote out a drawn out rag-fest.. Sooo... is it worth the buy?

    I don't have this item but judging by the promo images it seems to have only a slight effect. You can quickly achieve much the same collision effect with the Mesh Grabber tool without any need to run a simulation. Why use a sledgehammer to crack a nut?

    Based off the pictures in the ad it looks like it does a decent job smoothing out joints.

    I hear you Frank. I've slowly been moving away from Daz lately. I've learn Marvelous Designer's basics. It has quite the intuitive interface and I'm starting to learn Zbrush, though that is a completely different beast. Thinking of straight up learning either Blender or try my hand at Unreal.

    I'll buy the male version see what it does. Post it later. Sure I'll find the female version her soon enough. @d0gg0d

    @kefka they both have been made available privately...

    They work by having dforce zones on the body and overall work as soft body.

    They needed to be loaded instead of the base G8 or G8.1 (there is a base available for each), and then you apply morphs + textures to them.

    It requires to change dforce properties for bigger breasts or they "fall in onto themselves" as a large balloon.

    @legolas18 Already grabbed the male version but haven't touched it. How effective and satisfied are you with the product?

    @kefka Not much, the dforce settings are all wrong, the glutes deform badly when sitting with the current settings. I'll see if I can fix things, but I really shouldn't have to 🙂

    from what ive been hearing DAZ should have never approved this product. it barely works at all. it's in the same ballpark as the Auto Face Enhancer mess.

    @legolas18 Yep, the product doesn't really re-distribute weight when pressure is applied... oh well.


    @frank22
    But hey, the product will give Ripley a very believable 2 sizes too small panty effect:

    I figured it was too good to be true but I do find the clothe collision to be somewhat interesting.. and honestly it is the first I've seen that supports a full body collision effect in dforce.

    Not gonna lie, it may not be the pinnacle of soft body collision dynamics but it is a step in the right direction from what little I've used of it.

    But God knows that I'm using the wrong platform for achieving anything realistic like.

    Oh definitely. I like when people make stuff that sorta works or has difficult working. But those that release this kind of stuff should at least come with a disclaimer that it has a higher chance of not working for a ton of scenarios due to it being experimental.

    I’m never calling these people actually scammers, but it just feels like a scam without any disclaimers.

    Ha ha there's quite a bit of that to choose from. If I was a mean person I'd say there was a majority of these hit & miss types of products that fit that category.

    So I just did a pose with the genesis 8 legs past a ninety degree angle and it completely broke the product. Welp, I retract my statement that this product is better than most 'dforce soft body dynamic' products out there... THEY ALL SUCK! 🙂

    Never tried it but you could hit up Daz for a refund.

    You wouldnt have to if someone had posted it publicly.
