    Yes, they'll be in the shop shortly.

    Some of us already bought m8 will the discount still work?

    I'm disappointed that M8 looks so much like M7. Which I'm not that fond of to be honest. I will have to download G8M later and see if he looks as girly as G3M does.  (not there is anything wrong with that, just not really my taste). 

    Base G8m is the same shape as base G3m just modified a bit in terms of mesh topology and an improved base pose (like G8F was). Still, it hardly can be described as "girly" he's just not bodybuilder physique, just an average build really, perfect for morphing...

     

    Sorry, to me (emphasis on me) he looks too feminine.  Just not my type.  Again, my personal opinion, and most of what I use male models for is more of a Conan the Barbarian look than an average guy look.

    Happily downloading morphs, pro bundle, and assorted extras.  Too bad I have to go to work this afternoon.

    Have you tried them in the cart? They should give you the discount.

    I'm surprised with how many goodies G8M comes with. There are expressions, poses, morphs and quite a few basic garments. Really a very nice starter set, and you can't beat the price!

    He looks pretty good in Iray. There's some strange line on his right elbow though (click and zoom in for more detail.)

    Note: this is slightly grainy, I stopped it at 90% rendered. Seemed to take a while.

    I can't seem to get the G8 Armani hair to parent correctly when clicked on?
    Am I doing something wrong here?

    - Select/Highlight Genesis 8 Male.
    - Double-click on G8 Armani Hair.
    - Armani hair has no parent.  Must right-click "Fit Armani Hair To" in order to get it to stick on his head.

    Had to do the same thing and both the G8F & G8M hairs are still 3DL by default.

    Very odd to see this happen, as most of the time the items are automatically parented. Hm..

    It has been so long since I tried the default DAZ Studio HRDi with the default render iRay render settings with G8F & G8M using there default iRay texture settting with skin translucent set to the medium preset & hair converted to iRay I thought I'd give it a try.

    It's improved much since last year. I rendered at 4K too and for the 1st time in a long time I left on the 'noise filter' with I had been turning off and that decreases render time from like 2000 iterations or I get tired of waiting to  a render time 3 hours 26 minutes 13.78 seconds convering at 98% at 280 iterations.

    CPU: 280 iterations, 179.986s init, 12168.697s render

    I got it to work by adding this line to the .duf file, under scene->nodes:
    "conform_target" : "name://@selection:",

    I think this line controls the actual parenting, not sure why the above line is needed:
    "parent" : "name://@selection:"

    But, it seems to work now.  :)

    Ooh, I'd say G8M is lookin' mighty fine! Test render with the female Morningstar Wings parented (not fitted) to chest. No fitting issues with hair or clothes here. Used a little bit of bodybuilder morph and emaciated from the starter essentials.

    After such stunning examples I am almost ashamed to post my first go at G8M in Studio 4.8. (Yes it throws the "you must update to 4.9" error message but then he loads & poses just fine. Except ... why is it easier to put one of Vicky's dress on him than Michael's clothes? No joking, autofit has the proper male & female clones listed but under the "what type of content is this?" menu there are NO PANTS!!! No shirts or footwear either. G3Male has the pants, shirts, etc. option -- and before you ask I've bought no refit products for him, all he has are the clones that Daz gave him in his free starter bundle. Why on earth does G8 not have similar autofit choices? Or do I have to buy his morphs and Michael 8 or maybe a third party clone set to get the full deal? 

    Oh well, at least the dress is not mangled in the front, which is an improvement over the last time I tried converting one. So he will look good on the catwalk. cheeky

    I am also missing the 'autofit' options for both G8F & G8M - I just choose the correct generation & leave the item type at none.

    Also, when I save a scene & reopen it the clothing for G8M is no longer correctly autofitted but offset by a delta!

    Well, I tried autofitting with type "none" and this is what happened to the pants he borrowed from G2M. surprise

    I have only tried G3M clothing so far but the way those pants look is how the G3M Causual Style shirt looks on the G8M forearms after I've created, posed, saved, and reopened a scene.

    He's looking pretty good, IMO. 

    I think he might using Micheal 7's skin textures (like Genesis 8 Female uses Karen 7's textures).

    I haven't decided if I'm going to get Michael 8 or not, yet (I think I will) but so far I'm having fun with the base Genesis 8 Male. :) 

    I agree he looks great and I love that look he has of femininity , IMO best looking Micheal ever, which matches that warrior androgynous look v8 has . I really need to get these characters to work in animation.  I have so many role reversal Ideas for these characters would be perfect in

    Oh, that's not Michael 8 in my render - it's only the Base Genesis 8 Male with some of the free morphs dialed in. :) 

    Sadly, I don't have Michael 8 yet. I'm looking forward to getting him though. :)

    I just went ahead and got Mike and the base morphs. I run on the premise that it's easier to ask for forgiveness than permission. LOL :P

    I just installed G8M with essentials and 4.9. G8M's right eyes is crooked at load and the Armani hair doesn not load parented.

    As far as I've seen the Headsplit is for separating full body morphs from head morphs. So if you have a character morph that's both the head and body in one morph you can use the Headsplit DFormer to separate them into two separate morphs (one for the body and one for the head).

    Also, his eyelash texture doesn't load.

    EDIT: Nevermind about the eyelashes. I see you have to load it separately.
