Description Yet more playing around with some beta versions from redspec.  xerosisonek  wanted to see how it looked using a texture pack from adamthwaites , this is the result, the only thing I changed in the shader was specular value on the lips, as I felt it was too glossy for the natural look.

Thank you so much. The skin is not quite as stunning as your previous two tests, but I may have to switch to Poser just to use the new TGX. Thanks again.

Our shaders are available for DAZ Studio as well - so if you got that - no need to switch
PS: A skin shader will always be as good as the underlying texture

Thanks, Noel. It's just that what I've seen you and other Poser users do with RedSpec slightly edges out what the DAZ users of RedSpec are doing. Also, this being the latest iteration of the Poser version, there stands to be a lag between a DAZ version. However, correct me if I have missed something.

Well...eventually it of course always comes down how well the artist knows his/her tools.
The shaders are absolutely identical, be it Poser or DAZ Studio. We always aimed for parity, when we developed them, so nobody has any disadvantages based on their host application.

Thanks for the clarification. I am still in the early stages where I can avoid an exclusive commitment. So, will the DAZ version of this beta shader be released concurrently with the Poser version?

Yup, should release simultaneously.

Yeah, I think the lighting isn't showing off the skin as well as I could, the texture set isn't one of Adams latest creations either. I will keep experimenting with different texture sets and lighting combination.

It's fine that it was an older texture; I wanted an older texture so I could judge better. But if you can do something with comparable lighting to your previous tests, that'd be even better. Phoenix1966 also has some imperfect skin textures that may reveal something, unless this is limited to G2F. Thanks for taking the time, mate.
