    Star is not a Daz Original.
    You need to talk to the artists that released her. (Cake One Lady Littlefox Traveler)

    I know who Little Fox is I have been buying her stuff since Koshini/Ichiro. But maybe we should add some of these artists into the mix for what is standard.

    This thread is for the whole guessing, predicting and hoping regarding the primary Daz3D line of People that come out for Genesis 8.

    And I am hoping to see that expand....although a follow up to a good Freak character might be nice too!!

    Call me crazy, but I'd love to see a new Grim. His plain, but creepy looks were a standard for me back in the day and I've used him even recently because the zombies just don't have that something-something ;). We have zombie, vampire and demon, but nothing ghoulish like Grim was :).

    If I recall, the first male character after M7 was Leo 7, who arrived a few days after Olympia 7. Then is was Girl 7 / Guy 7, and after that Gia 7 / Gianni 7. 

    No idea if it will be the same this time round though, series 8 release order is already way different to 7. By the time M7 arrived, I think we already had six or seven girls as well as Victoria, this time we just have Olympia 8.

    I would like to see Teen Jossie 8, with Teen Jayden 8 all together on September

    For all Freak fans I would like to point out that RawArt's Massives for G8F and G8M are freakily massive at full 100%.

    I would love to see Bethany 8,Elisha 8 and The Guy8. They were both so different from the average Daz figure. They added variety to the mix. I would also like to see Keiko back again.

    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.

    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.

    That's the point - it's more than just minor adjustments.  Victoria is 5'10", which is quite a rare height for women.  To adjust her to an average US height of 5'4" requires quite a bit of adjustment, more than just minor tweaks I'd expect due to differences with morphs.

    IMHO, it would be far better to scale the Genesis women to average height, then if someone wants a super tall model they could spin the dials to do so.  You don't even notice the height difference until you have other objects for reference.

    The morph heights should be based on the base figure and have amy scaling applied on additional dials, which is how past versions of Michael and Victoria have been set up. Meaning that if you dial the head and body into the Genesis 3 Female base, for example, Victoria 7 will no longer be 5'10", but whatever the default height for G3F is.

    Let's not turn this into a debate over how poses interact with morphs (vs. How it "should" be.).

    I am waiting and hoping for Gen8 versions of Bethany, Kalea, and Sunny.

    I would like to see them bring back David. I kind of miss the little guy.

  • Serene NightSerene Night Posts: 17,704

    I would like Leo but with the scale not baked into the body slider. Also freak would be nice. He tended to have good skins and content

    Good News Everyone!
    The Syble Outfit for Genesis 8 Female(s) and Syble Hair for Genesis 8 Femaile(s) both have support for Stephanie 8 and Teen Josie 8 shapes

    Yes that is right, it looks like we are getting a new Stephanie for this generation!

    Looks like the cat's out of the bag for our next Genesis 8 character.
    Bibiset for Genesis 8 Female(s) includes support for Teen Josie 8.

    Yay! I hope you do for her what you did for the past G8 releases, including the older models/clothes, etc. I am fairly new and I love having the past figures for variety as well as clothing options..

    Would like to see Darius, David, Freak and The Guy. Stephanie's next? Well, maybe. The most use I got out of Stephanie 4 was mixing her morphs in with Michael 4's to give me an ersatz David. If I can do that with G3 or G8 version of her, I just might buy. Also if she has sensible clothes and things I can crossfit to the males. No more boob flap "Grecian Goddess" outfits, please.

    I'd like Leo 8 especially if they fix the baked in height morph. More adult dudes. Not into the teens or juveniles.

    I grabbed Callie 6 on sale this week, and wow....  She's a really nice model, I hope she gets a Genesis 8 upgrade.
    So here's my list of hopefulls for G8F:

    Bethany 8
    Kalea 8
    Sunny 8
    Callie 8
     

    On a side note Morpheus needs a Female counterpart.  And I know he's not a daz original, but George needs a female counterpart.

    If they're anything like the G3 versions, Lucian and Elijah. wink

    Agreed

    I hope Stephanie 8 looks a bit like Stephanie 6 - I really like Stephanie 6.

    Minotaur 8

    ready for the next release as long as the

    body morph slider doesn't include scaling !!!

  • ByrdieByrdie Posts: 1,783

    What is this baked in height morph? Don't have Leo but his bundle is in my wishlist so I'm weighing the pros and cons. 

  • boisselazonboisselazon Posts: 458

    Monstrosities !!! the ones in genesis 1 were AWESOME, never been better in the next gen. In fact, Monstrositie Fiend is one of my ALL TIME favourite char in the whole daz3d store.
