Once you’ve set this on a material zone, you can save it as a Shader Preset. To do that, navigate to your D|S Shader Presets folder, and click the + at the bottom, there’s options for materials, shaders, pose, and a few others. Select shader. Make sure you have the figure selected in Scene and the surface in the Surfaces tab. You can apply it later by shift+doubleclicking while you have the surfaces selected that you want to apply it on.

Hi there
I just found you on DA, and was so glad to see another WP webmaster on there! I love this theme, you did a beautiful job on it. Also wanted to thank you for blogging D|S tips, I sure can use all the help I can find…
So, thanks!

I hope it’s okay to ask a question about this tut?
the purple bottom and top she has on when you open her, won’t cover up with this tut.
I did this on V4, would that be considered a merterial zone?
When I save it Daz will say I can only choose one surface before I can save a shader preset. What I do when I save is have all the skin sections highlighted in surface tab, and V4 selected in scene. Is that what you mean when you say ” Make sure you have the figure selected in the scene and surface in surface tab”?
I can just go ahead and finish a render with the shaders on this tut applied, BUT
I hope I havn’t confused you .
Is there any place I can show what I have done so far?
I would also love to show you some of the things I have done with your art, as far as animating them. I just love your stuff. Thanks in advance.

You only have to have 1 surface selected to CREATE the shader. You can select multiple surfaces to apply the shader once you’ve created it.
I’m not sure what you mean by her purple bikini “won’t cover up with this tut.”
Feel free to link images if you think that will help better explain your predicament

Oh I see. Thank you.I’m gonna give this another go now and will let you know how I do.
What I did was selected all skin parts of V4 in surface, then added these numbers. Duh on me.
You say one surface selected only, by surface do you mean a part of the model? I select a skin, like torso, would that be right.
The V4 model is not nude when you open her, she’s covered with a bikini.
Thanks again Vex. xo
