    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. 

    Leo 7 had a few technical issues. His body morph has scaling added so when you dial in his body it adds height. It makes him pretty unusable as a gene donor although his body is super fine. It is a big no no to do that with a base figure. There was a whole thread about it which I can't find. I think there is also a weird shift where his feet also drop below the floor due to another technical issue.

    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!

    Holy crap... Stephanie lives after all! o_o

    Now I'm curious if this means she's going to get a new male counterpart...

    New? Can we just have David back?

    Yes, that would be pretty awesome to have an adult DazO figure measuring up at around the 5' Mark.

    Why is height made such an issue when you can pretty easily adjust the height of a character?

    it's not that easy. The body only morph should not include height. it can be an issue of proportion plus people like to dial in a bit of this and shouldnt have to enlarge other bodyparts to compensate for the weird scaling on Leo's body.  This thread goes into detail there a few oddities with Leo which makes him difficult to use as a gene donor

    Genesis 1 was great for 'creatures' in general, I think.  The advantages of the later Genesis 2+ versions in splitting genders don't really apply to fanciful monstrosities, and it's great to create a family of lizardians, bearfolk, or whatever with the male/female/child morphs.  I miss it.

    New item listing Stephanie 8 in supported shapes:
    Goth Outfit for Genesis 8 Female(s)
    I wonder if this is Stephanie 8 standing next to Josie in one of the promo renders

    Here is the Goth Outfit with the Stephanie 8 body shape dialed in.

    I wasn't really planning on investing in this generation. Didn't care for Victoria but got Olympia to get the other Olympias. Michael was okay but didn't like his bundles and already owned the previous base figures.

    But I'm tempted to get the Stephanie 8 pro bundle. (Loved her S5 pro bundle, it's my most used one. I only have her S6 starter bundle, not too fond of her S6 skin but love her shape.)

    I also would like Aiko 8, Lilith 8, Mei Lin 8, Darius 8, Hiro 8, and Freak 8. Mostly for the pro bundle discount. Hopefully they'll all look nice, if they're made/released.

    I'm hoping not, because it looks like another Thorne character. Nothing against Thorne, but I'm just not into the highly stylized look.

    Same. I want a Stephanie more in line with Victoria except girl next door.

    The body shape dialed in to those clothes looks nothing like the second character in the image above ;).

  • I'm hoping for another adult male. Just don't have much male content in the store yet.

    This. I really miss the exotic morphs that we'd get for Genesis (and M4/V4). I was going to post about new Fantasy and Creature Morphs, but I'd really like to see the morphs get pushed further. JoeQuick made an amazing hedgehog morph for G8! Wow! More like that please!

    For my part I'm disappointed with Teen Josie 8 (EDIT: I want add I'm disappointed BUT I didn't purchased yet the character, and I'm not sure I would do it ..).

    Anyway, I wait patiently they release our best girls: Aiko 8, Lilith 8, Mei Lin 8 !!!

    Therefore Stephanie 8 isn't yet released but in the render above it seems, the character to the right side of the image will be possibly Stephanie 8.
    If yes, I think she's more accurate to say: We want her ! :)

    Upon looking at the image above more, I think I'll be agreeing with AllenArt about that being a Thorne... it's the lips.
     

  • By the way, I wonder why they did not release the Stephanie 7 (Just wondering why)..
    Or I'm wrong?

    Ah yeah, the fabric's brand :p

  • my main male character I use is Ivan 7 HD has lots of detail so wouldn't mind an 8 version not an exact copy version but along his lines 

  • JamesJABJamesJAB Posts: 1,766

    As much as the Gen8 people have been hit and miss, at least they are not just copies of the previous gen versions.

    Keiko 8... Nuff said  ;)

  • Mei Lin. Definitely Mei Lin. Excellent character and my favorite general purpose skin by far.

    Totally Mei Lin, apart from Victoria, the only one I bought the HD morphs for on gen 3.
