Hahaha!! Sooo cool Stuckon!!!! 

Wow is that the Streets of Venice set??? I was on the fence about it but now, woah... that looks awesome. A tutorial for optimizing Daz crazy textures would be a very welcome addition. They have some pretty great stuff but kinda go nuts with the texture sizes. It's all too common a theme with their sets.

Stonemason does churn out some amazing work. Converting to use in iClone is a pain but so worth it. Simply beautiful.

@Lamias Thanks bud, just remember that what you are seeing here is just the beginning. The set is a Daz set from Stone Mason. But it does take some know how to make it work with iClone correctly (optimizing textures and making it pbr ready) and a little bit of talent to make it look beautiful (lighting with iclones new rendering tools), I will be making a tutorial later on this year showing the how to's for optimizing a DAZ scene.  So Stay tuned.  In the meantime check out my GI, PBR, and LUT tutorials I did for reallusion, I apply everything I teach on those tutorials to the images you see here.  

Cheers,

Cris

I can texture Stonemason's stuff well enough, but what I like the most is your outdoor lighting here.  While I *think* I've got indoor lighting fairly under control (thanks to help from you and other tuts) my outdoor stuff still sucks.  I get the feeling I'm missing something obvious, and I probably am, but even a simple 15 minute tutorial on how you lit this would be amazingly helpful.

Now THAT!!! is freaking AWESOME work! Beautiful scene.... I am sooooooo looking forward to the tutorial as I am in possession of tons of DAZ Scenes. Some of them too large for Iclone 6. Haven't tried them in Iclone 7 yet. You've motivated me to start experimenting a bit while I wait for your expert advice. Again... niiiiccceeee work

Also... as Kelleytoons note... the outdoor light is amazing. I too would love a short tutorial on that subject. Again... OUTSTANDING WORK!

Outdoor lighting is something of an issue for me as well. I am trying my best, and still it looks fake enough. I haven't tested it in Iclone 7 yet, but I think it's safe to say that I am the one with the problem, not the version of the software.

Glad I am not alone in this

A simple tutorial would help greatly.
