I’m working on a map for my next adventure for Operation: Fallen Reich, with the working title Wicked Times – All Guns Blazing. And I need some special furniture for a map.
Today I am lazy, I’m just rendering some different stuff using DAZ 3D Studio of models I’ve purchased. You need all props like this to make cool maps, and even If I now sometimes build the whole map in DAZ 3D Studio, I still most of the time make maps using props either in Dundjinni or in OmniGraffle.
So, it is time to show a little more what DAZ 3D Studio can bring to the maps and the game table, and don’t forget virtual game tables, where the use of digital props is very important.
So, we now know how to setup a DAZ 3D Studio package so we can use the stuff made in Cheetah3D in DAZ 3D Studio. So far only for simple stuff like a box. And now I think it is time to show how it will look, and do at the same time fix the last piece of the puzzle.
As I said yesterday, DAZ 3D Studio has truckload of nice posable 3D objects, so many you could probably get ruined trying to collect them all. Playing with 3D is like a collecting card game, you never have enough bits and pieces.
As you know I am very fond of Cheetah3D and use it as my primary 3D modeler, but there is one application that is really cool, and that is DAZ 3D Studio, which is a free 3D tool. It is great as there are endless lists objects that you can purchase for a few bucks, or download for free, and as has posing, it is very good at working with posable objects with limitations, human bodies or animals, but also machines, vehicles etc.

Today we’re gonna make something I just wanted to hide from my players as this is crucial in the adventure Cricket & Crocodiles for Openration:Fallen Reich, and it would be a spoiler. We will make a crocodile amulet.
We got more things to do with those trapdoors, or more correctly more different things to do, so we can then render multitudes of them.
So, we’re into trapdoors now. You can never have too many, trust me, they are like chests, the players never forget a chest the have seen.
