Description Another experiment with "Platypus by AM" and "LAMH 2 Iray Catalyzer" in DAZ Studio and Iray. This time I wanted to play with a LAMH 2 Iray Catalyzer squirrel and some armor for the platypus. No post work

    Thank you, I can never resist trying to make an armored mount out of furry critters.  Someday I will have to find a way to add them all together in a massive battle

    being able to scale armor properly is hard

    JoePingleton In reply to fractal2cry [2018-08-07 23:26:58 +0000 UTC]

    Yeah, That is why I keep experimenting.  I have found that I have to group each piece of the armor so that I can scale them right and still be able to adjust the parts. I suspect there is a way of using the transfer utility, but I haven't figured it out yet.  It should work because most animals have the same parts (ie 4 legs, a tail, etc) but they all have different names.

    Do you have AM's porcupine? If you do, does it load for you? I own it but I can't get it into Daz Studio without crashing, even when I choose the 3Delight version. I've managed to get the skunk to load after issues, but I want to make a piece with the porcupine.

    I have AM's porcupine and it loads fine for me.  I also never had a problem loading the skunk. Have you posted your problem on DAZ's forums? AM seems to respond pretty quickly there.

    Thank you, I love the way "LAMH 2 Iray Catalyzer" and "Rodents by AM: Squirrels of Eastern Hemisphere" work together.  It was so much of a pain to use them the old way with Iray.  Now I don't even have to think about it.
