    Looks like the cat's out of the bag for our next Genesis 8 character.

    I'll skip Teen Josie for sure. Hardly used Teen Josie 7.

    Good to hear. I'm happy with any character which increases the variety and comes with unique morphs for mixing.  So Josie is nice and waiting for Girl 8, Aiko 8 or any other character who expands the possibilities away from the default look.

    Im still hoping for Bethany 8 to pop up, she's most definatley a character that expands the posibilities.

    I don't care what they look like, it's the skins I'm more interested in. I'd rather see a morph pack released - like the old days. Morphs for plus size,  ethnic features. Having said that, i'll be looking forward to a Monique 8 if the skin is as good as or better than Monique 7. I was looking forward to Olympia 8, but after getting her, I was quite upset to not like her at all. Give us excellent skins and morphs for sizes and facial features.

    No 8's for me. Outrageous pricing for what you get. Gen 3 is just fine.

    None at the moment. I bought V8, and will buy M8, but that will be the extent of it. I didn't invest much into G3, and unless G8 comes up with some extraordinary characters, there's nothing to Genesis 8 that makes me want to buy.

    The morphs for basic facial and body features are already available.

    Then the prices are outrageous for what you get from G3, because they haven't changed.

    Concerning skin it has always been a hit or miss for me. Some skins work well with my setup others don't and I'm not good enough to fix the ones which don't look nice. As such I can't say I'm waiting for character x because of the skin as there is no way for me to tell which of the upcoming Genesis 8 character will have (for my setup) a well working skin or not.
    For Josie as an example it's possible she comes with the best skin I have ever had or one I will never use but the morphs should be unique enough to add at least some variance to character looks.

    The Girl 8, and I hope they do a Sunny 8, and Callie 8. I might be interested in Teen Josie 8 too, which is funny, because I never have been interested I any of the teen characters, but I got Josie 8 on a deep discount deal, and found out that just a touch of Josie in the morph mix adds some great character to my characters, and helps to give more height variety too.

    What I'd like to see is a reappearance from Svengar (for Gianni) way back in Gen2.  I always like seeing older men with character.  In that line, I'd also like to see an older woman, a more athletic woman (BEFORE the "bodybuilder" morph) and, as mentioned above, a guy like George.

    I'd also like to see a really good ( not cartoonish ) old man and old woman.  Just adding age morphs doesn't really look the same.  Lots of stories need those actors.

    None. What I'm waiting for, is the male.

    The textures are great, as is the slim-figure morph; the large eyes always irritated me. So was careful using the rest, and always dialled out the eyes. Although I think I prefer the textures on 6 than 7. I don't need more of the same however, so will see what like.

    I never get why people are always going on about needing characters of different heights, with the body morphs and scaling you can make any character any height and proportions, spin some dials folks.

    The issue is rendering males and females together. The women are freakishly tall, so after scaling them to an average height all the poses you buy are jacked and need a lot of adjustment - holding a glass, sitting on a chair, etc. If the genesis females were average height, all the PA's poses wouldn't need so much adjustment.

    I dunno, so far they V8 and O8 faces look too masculine. If they keep doing thenough no more buying Daz figures and will have to rely on the PAs.
  • jakibluejakiblue Posts: 7,281

    Belle 6 had absolutely stunning skin - wish I could get that skin on G3 or G8. LOL. Monique 7's skin was also stunning - she was perfect. And to me, Olympia 7 had fantastic skin too. 

    I hate Olympia 8's skin - it's plastic and awful and her eyebrow prop are the worst eyebrows I've seen on a figure. I didn't get V8 and if Olympia 8 is a sign of what the rest of the 8's will be like, then I won't be purchasing them at all.

    Pose presets aren't supposed to be perfect for every single character made, whether the character is "normal" height or not. You're supposed to have to make minor adjustments to them if you alter the size much from the default.

    It isn't tough to do.

    Use the Map Transfer Tool to change to default UVs; I then convert the textures to G3, useing Blacksmith's product, but there is a Daz product that looks to do a great job, and folks seem very happy with it.

    We have another product listing Teen Josie 8 on the supported shapes.

    Hoping for Teen Josie 8 with nice goth makeup options and the base character UV's.

    Also looking forward to Monique 8 and hope she is released much sooner in the release cycle than Monique 7.  I am dial spinning right now trying to come up with a good character if African decent but my dial spinning is not all that good.  I did apply the Monique 7 skin on AprilYSH's Fane model and she came out looking like a beautiful Indian female but that is not what I wanted

    I'm glad, I don't have any teen characters and was looking at the older ones recently. I hope Daz releases her with the earlier versions "free" like they did with some of the other new gals..

    The Girl 8 and Lilith 8, but more in the 6 style. I didn't like the direction they went with on 7. Another Quinn-like character would be nice too. The promo pics don't do it justice. https://www.daz3d.com/fwsa-quinn-for-izabella-7

    Quinn is like Teen Josie 7 if you haven't seen her.

    I'm hoping for Eva 8, I'm a sucker for long legs.

    I'm planning to stay stong and not buy a stylized female figure unless there is a male to go with her. I got burn with genesis 2, but was very happy with Guy 7 and Kenji 7 for Genesis 3. I like them better than the females!

    No more teens for me. Got enough that I don't use and between genesis 2 & 3, there are enough appropriate clothes for them. Besides, I doubt there is going to be a teenage boy since we didn't get a Jayden 7. So I seriously doubt there will be one for genesis male 8.

    Ryan 7 was adorable, though.

    What I truly want are children! Kid's under the age of 12. I am willing to except them as a separate figure and have autofit abilities across generations and figures. But I really need kids, not more snot nose teens.

    And a baby, a really realistic baby! And a toddler, a cute little pudgy toddler.
