    Or more european stuff of all types of things. Like european food... police uniforms... furniture... everyday stuff.

    ...still hoping for a complete English country manor, whether modular like the old "Dream Home" or as a single product with interiors.

    I'd rather have more stuff from the continent. Considering that quite a few houses in the USA are built from british examples, there are - in my opinion - quite a few buildings in the shop that could pass as british. But where's the french, german, italian etc. farm houses? Wood and whitewashed plaster buildings, like in many german towns.. only some fantasy and pseudo historical ones can be found.

    No that I wouldn''t like an english manor house... but there would be so many more other things around from all over europe...

    ...a true English Country manor really doesn't exist for Daz.  There is sort of one for Carrara (but it is more "continental" in architecture). The other closest is Blenworth but it is only an exterior and more a castle like structure (inspired most likely by the Waterloo House at the Tower of London).

    It's funny reading these threads as it seems to me that we need many more PAs so that some of these items can be produced, but then again is there a big enough market for more PAs to make it worthwhile for them, hmmm.

     

    Or ask for things that exist in other stores, as though those other sites don't exist.

    I still haven't figured out how to get content from a zip file into Daz Studio without manually opening it up and putting each thing individually into the right folder. For Poser on my Mac I have an app that does that for me but I have yet to figure out how to "extract" a zip file into the DS library. For that reason I buy less DS stuff from other sites because I can't use DIM...  In Windows, the zip file doesn't even actually open, it lets you see what's inside but I have to move the files inside to another folder. I'm a Mac person, new to Windows. Could anyone explain how to extract a zip file on a Mac or PC into DS???

    I install everything manually. First thing is to know the file paths in DS, without that you can't install it if you don't know where it is supposed to go. I use WinRar, since it opens zip and .7z files also. Once it's d/led, right click on the file and select open with WinRar and you'll get the image attached. Most files from Daz and most, non poser files will have the Content folder showing along with the supplement and manifest files. You can always click down into the content folder to see what is in there and where it is supposed to go.

    I go to the top, select extract to and then go to My Documents, Daz 3D and then Studio which is the default location. Then hit OK and it installs to where it needs to go.

    Occasionally I get files from Rendo or other sites, or freebies that are set up wrong and bypass the content folder which means I can either drill deeper into it before extracting or place things manually.

    For poser files, it's the same process, but different folder structure and paths. I have poser runtimes set to install poser files isnto their correct runtimes and mapped within DS.

    1. An interior for Stonemason's 'Streets of Morocco'.

    2. A re-release of the 'Chinese Courtyard' that makes it into a construction set (i.e. all modular). With maybe some new textures by Moyra.

    3. Further developments by Omnifreaker on his Incantoo props and figures. Say new expressions and gear for the (absolutely adorable) Incantoo Warrior or an Incantoo Warrior morph for G1 etc.

    Greetings,

    I would really, really like a proper G8-based anthropomorphic fox (vixen and tod) and wolf (male/female).  Preferably edging slightly towards the anime side of things, but with actual muzzles and LAMH settings, not just the coloration.

    Outside of that, I would really like to take a break in buying DAZ stuff after March Madness is over.  Please? surprise

    I would like to see a new Superhero Suit for the G8 people with hundreds of morphfs and mat zones with a related cape, mask, gloves and boots.

    Then I would also love to have a new version of the Morphing Fantasy Dress with all the needed Add-Ons with new dForce options, but with the possibility to use all the textures of the old ones.

    Well the current MFD for Genesis 8 (as well as all other MFDs) has all the add-ons, and takes all the textures of the old ones.

    It has not been officially dforced, but the main dress is one mesh, and so should drape reasonably well.

    All that is needed really is a set of material settings that tweaks the dforce settings whilst leaving all other settings untouched.

    Waterloo house Tower of London:

    It's a bit of a pain to work with, but over on Rendo, Powerage has an exterior set called Rose Rouge. It's modular, and you can kinda-sorta use the pieces (which, unfortunately are mostly frontages. Few have more than 2 walls) to build any number of facades of manor houses. It's a red brick structure with a tan 'stone' accent and sort of works for a fairly broad range of periods. Pretty much anything within hailing distance of Tudor, although not specifically that.

    I'd really like:

    A chihuahua. A bag to hold him in. Food dish, and toys with food. Up to date. Both Apple head and deer.

    Grocery and shoppy center. I know some exist, but, a whole checkout experience would be nice.

    Sweat brushes. Not foam, water, drops, whatever sweat, and perspiration.

    Eating poses with half-eaten food

    Beds with bedding which is dforable.

     

    Food that looks really 'real' - most food items either look a bit like they're molded out of plastic, or the textures look like photos of food that have been pasted on (which, fair enough, is what they are, and I know this isn't easy to solve), but we need better food.

    I've tried dforcing the MFD - haven't exploded it yet... so it seems to work.

    Thank you NoahLGP!

    I already have one - came with a morph pack I purchased - but I really meant that Daz needs to start supplying the morph with their male body morphs - again. LOL G2M had one so I'm not sure why they decided subsequent versions didn't need them. It's a basic male morph.

    Waterloo house Tower of London:

    Those are more classed as country houses.

    A manor is smaller, but follows a certain style as a rule; although the divide can blur somewhat. A manor would be more like 10 or so bedrooms; a country house many more.

    https://www.onthemarket.com/for-sale/manor-house/uk/

    Some great examples here.

    The term 'Lord of the Manor', was where there was generally a titled personage living locally, and was probably the only one in the area, and was often the main or sole employer.

    Manor houses, it seems, grew in size, and became very stately - probably why there is some blurring (and probably disagreement) over what should be applied to the term.

    Victoria 7 for Victoria 8! V7 remains my favourite model. A matter of tastes, I guess. If they made M7 for M8, and several other 7 for 8's, I'm pretty sure they can make V7 for V8 as well!

    Oh and I wish there could be also V5 for V8, at least the face.

    Personally I'd prefer more indexed video tutorials, say, instead of 1 hour long tutorial a playlist of smaller individual bits. benefits of seeing the stuff but improved searchability

     

    I don't like pdfs personally thogh my prefered style is video taking up half my screen softwear on the other and play along, having to read means you can't model at the same time

    And we need food in the process of being consumed - sandwiches with a bite or two out, dinner plates with obvious consumption, and bits appropriate to put on a fork or spoon.

    They can be indexed and cataloged. I have yet to see an indexing program that works on videos. I have two that work on pdf, odt, docx, and doc files.
