Hi,
I almost own the best part of Daz3D Shop and Renderosity Marketplace and I'm still looking for more content.
Where can I purchase new content ?

You have purchased over 20,000 products in the last six months? Maybe you should consider taking a break from buying and try using them in renders instead.
@Zylox Only 1,500 products are really interesting for me.
I have got a lot of ideas but a lot of content is still missing.
About rendering, I need a new computer, it's planned for 2019. Right now I can't do what I want.
Personally, I'd like to see new content come in the form of updates to older items. Such as updated textures to old sets, figure morphs updated to the latest gen, clothing updated to fit the new gen naturally (not using "fit to" or generation stepping to get them to the newest gen), poses redone for the new gen, etc.
Of course sold as new products/add-ons
I would like fits for old items too. My conversion attempts even with the great tutorials don’t work so well. They could be sold as an expansion.
As far as stores go there aren’t too many. Most are poser orientated and selling older items which will need to be altered to fit current generations, Short of the one mature store which I don’t go to, There is cgbytes, content paradise, and a few smaller shops ran by the owners.
Thank you ! I should find some new items.
If you haven’t tried Dzheng his clothing fits pretty well the ones from Genesis in current generations. There are items I like at both cgbytes and content paradise. I have gotten good at transferring poses from earlier generations.
I just bought the Hockey Pro Bundle today and own oodles of old content. Most of it is still usuable on Genesis 8 without even buying new products - You just fit M4 to Genesis 1, fit Genesis 1 to Genesis 2 Male, fit Genesis 2 Male to Genesis 3 Male, and finally fit Genesis 3 male to Genesis 8 Male and save each clothing item as a wearable preset.
What I would like to see if all this older clothing repaired and updated to work with Genesis 8 and be repaired in such a way to work with dForce properly and appropriately. Then DAZ 3D could have like an 'upgrade' price, sort of like the interactive license price, as an add on to the original product.
Although the Hockey Pro Bundle is a PA product so the PA would have to do that work independantly and hope to recoup costs of that endeavor.
I already own his content from Renderosity
might be time to start learning a modeling app to start making your own content. Makes it a little easier to create what you envision when you can't find what you want.
Always the same song : "if you want something, do it by yourself".
But not everybody is skilled to do such thing. I prefer to reward talented creators.
Wasn't meant to be the same old song, it was a suggestion since you seem to be needing more content than there is avaliable. Every person that does modeling starting out not knowing how and many here that are into modeling are so because what they needed was usually never created. This is a very small, niche marketplace in the whole 3D world. DS has proprietary rigging and tech developed just for DS. If you had access to a pro modeling app like Max, Maya, Modo, C4D, etc, it would open up all kinds of new techniques and options in 3D
In fact, I already tried to create content for The Sims 3 with Milkshape3D but it wasn't satisfying I wasn't able to obtain the quality level I want.
Note:
Daz3D Shop provide new content every days, my library will keep on growing.
Just I wanted to know if there were other places where I could find new content.
I’ll let you know if I find any.. there is also gumroad where uzilite publishes his content.
Nice, thank you very much ;) !
HiveWire3D, PoserWorld, Mankahoo.
What areas are you interested in? Contemporary? Sci-Fi? Historical? (which era?) / Clothing? Characters? Sets? (what kind?)
It'd help to point you to some specific places (want a cat? -> Hivewire has a good one I believe (don't have it myself) )
Philosophers Egg and Hivewire have some interesting things.
If you don't mind freebies, the Poser Daz Freebie Wiki has a TON of content: https://poserdazfreebies.miraheze.org/wiki/Main_Page
My interests are :
Well you probably know of this already but HRDI Haven has lots of free HRDIs
https://hdrihaven.com/
Very interesting
I also like Turbosquid for props/things that don't require DAZ figures; look for OBJ, which can be imported to Daz.
I found some nice Sci-fi M4 armors at Xurge3D
Very interesting
Well, there is something else ? I think I reached the limit of what the shops could offer me.
I visited Daz3D, Renderosity, CGBytes, EvilInnocence, Xurge3D, TurboSquid, DeviantArt, HDRIHaven, ShareCG, 3DExport, and RenderHub
Mod Edit :- to remove a site mention
You missed Hivewire...
Done.
Sorry I found nothing interesting for me there.
I found some interesting items on 3dsky.org. Many items are free there..You can buy a month of free downloads for 9$. Some of the models are pretty interesting, I have modified a few, and was able to get them to show up in DAZ. The attached is a quick render of a scene I was playing around with. The plant wall, lemon tree, and loft style couch are from 3dsky.org. The texturing is my own. Not a complete render (or finished scene) by any means, but gives you an idea of their content
Thank you, it's interesting.
