    Glad that helped. And you're right, Havos, it's those pesky bones that get lost, which is really important on those longer hairs.

    I did a test render of the Trousseau dress. It converts well to Iray and drapes perfectly in VWD, even just doing a static drape. So far I've only draped it on V4, but I'll do a V7 or V8 soon. Here's my first try at it. I like how it came out. Can't go wrong for the price, and there are lots of options to give it different looks. Makes a nice wedding dress.

  • Fake Orange banners I hate you. Its like getting socks wrapped up on Christmas morning as kid so you have more gifts to open.

    Yeah, that banner was ...annoying.

    Donovan, if you parent the hair instead of fitting it, you won't lose the morphs. I parent G3 and G8 hair to V4 and M4, (sometimes even V3!) this way. Just make sure the figure is zeroed, load hair, adjust to fit, then parent to head.

    I don't want to sound pedantic, but strictly speaking autofitting does not lose any morphs. It will lose all the extra bones not present in the target figure, which is particularly an issue with long hair. Shorter hairs, where styling/movements are made via morphs can be autofitted, as the morphs will move over. In general terms autofitting works better for male (ie short hair) than female (often long) hair.

    Yeah  - in many of the older hairs, the morphs were in the 'neck' bone - which is lost on conversion to G3 as it has upper and lower neck bones instead.  Also losing any handle bones is a loss too.  But scaling and parenting works fine for the most part.

  • You guys gotta stop quoting Llynara's entire post with my name in it... 

    ​It is like watching the Big Lebowski. Every time John Goodman yells "Shut the bleep up, Donnie!" I jump...

    Okay, nice bathroom: https://www.daz3d.com/modern-bath-and-morphing-towel-for-genesis-8-female-s But is it me, or does it have no door at all?

    Errr, you don't appear to be wrong.  That poor woman, trapped in the bath for eternity.  Very "Cask of Amontilado".

    Clearly one is meant to enter and exit through the mirror. angel

    I am not sure that is a mirror, as it is not showing the reflection I would expect to see, so it may indeed be a narrow entrance. If you look closely in one render there does appear to a hing on it, so I thing it is a glass door.

    Lovely render, my friend! :D It's a nice suprise when those older clothing items end up working well in Iray. Some of my favorite outfits are V4 outfits. And one of my favorites is even a Aiko 3 outfit! Now that's old! lol

    It's a door that, if you go by the promos, leads outdoors.
    The only door, in fact.

    it was simply an ad that said how some products were now PC items and a link for them. No discount, or anything like that. It was just an ad.

    Ah, I see. I lost my PC+ membership two days ago and I can't really afford to renew it right now. Sad day is sad. Ah well, if I'm lucky Daz will like my characters that I'm submitting and that would make me a PA - and I THINK PAs get PC+. I think. That would be a great perk! Here's hoping Daz likes my characters! :)

    ImagineX recently sold their entire inventory to Daz, who added a number of the items to PC+. The banner was "announcing" these new PC+ products, with a link to "Newly PC+ Items." There is no special offer, other than the much lower PC+ price for members. Here's the link: https://www.daz3d.com/newly-pc-items.

    Thank you. :)

    Oh man, that's so painful seeing the Non-PC+ pricing - everything like $10-$20 that normally would be like $2-$5. Ahhh I've had PC+ too long to see that now. lol 

  • Aeon Soul's design sense is _stunning_ and they always do such an amazing job of selling their backlist. I thought I'd talked myself out of The Legend but they're talking me back into it.

  • I mean, I said, "Self, even if you have many other outfits from AS (purchased of course because of how well they complement each other), you do not NEED a huge heavy set of armor. No matter who makes it! And it'd hardly combine well with their other sets."

    and AS said,"HERE HAVE SOME RECIPES." Who knew you needed armor for every job?

    Also, I think it's very cunning how the necessary piece of chest clothing to protect skin from practically designed metal is very sexy-fantasy-art hot.

    Yeah, I could tell right away that it was an AS product as soon as I clicked on the first promo. Outstanding design! And I love the detailing in the textures. Everything looks like it's actually USED. Too often things that should show a little bit of real life wear, scuffs, scratches, etc are just too perfect and pristine - making them look more like museum or show room pieces rather than something someone would actually wear into battle. This set looks really stunning and while I can't afford it at the moment, it's probably not going to be on my wish list for long before I cave and find a way to get it. lol

  • Look at those written details! Each of the pieces have shaping morphs! Gah. I can just about afford it but I'd have to take a store break until October.

  • The new Aeon Soul armor is so friggingly amazing... Now I have a cart loaded to 48 dollars (I can bump it to 42 with a coupon) and I'm just staring at it... I mean, yes, I definitely want everything in that cart. I probably even will use it (like you know, download and render TODAY). It's just... You know... I was doing so good with not over-spending... 

    Anyone already bought the armor and could check how non-female parts look on males?

    Sleep Away Camp is only discounting to 17% in the Spotlight section, even when the Bandage Kit is also in the cart. (It goes to 50%) THe Camp is supposed to go 50% if two of those are in the cart from Spotlight. (I also have multiple New Debuts to test and see if that would make it work, and nothing does.) 

    Buy any combination of items from Debut New ReleasesDaily Spotlight, or Featured Artist Catalogs¥ to get:
    40% OFF for 1 OR 50% OFF* for 2 or more

  • you're right, 17% is completely dumb and by the time it is corrected the other sales in my cart (v4 m4) will be off sadangry

    The renders on AS's Deviantart page are phenomenal. Even at full price this one is a day one purchase for me. Today's sale is by far the best one of the sale so far for me, my cart is sitting at $200, all stuff that is on my must buy list. It's going to be hard to narrow it down enough that I can actually afford it.  *edit*  Although if they don't fix the glitches on the discounts, that'll make it a lot easier to narrow down.

    The usually have big discount on memberships on New Years Eve, but that's a way off...

  • Cart is at $273.44 when I dump EVERYTHING I want in it. Gotta see what happens when they get today's sales sorted out and we start to play the game I hate...

    What's Gotta Go?

    What amused me was that banner said in the small print "OFFER VALID ONLY FOR THOSE IT IS PRESENTED TO", which had me wondering, what offer?

    It seems only those that got the banner were permitted to look at the items for sale, what an honor!
