DAZ has more bathrooms than my local store

    One thing that I find odd is the otherwise complete apartment or house environments that leave out the bathroom. While there are tons of stand-alone options, most don't match with the bathroom-less environments. If I am on the fence about an environment, this is one thing I look at to help influence the buy/don't buy decision.

    Somewhat related, I just looked at my product library and I only have one stand-alone non-public bathroom product . Two if you count the Tesla3D Bathroom and Laundry Area, but since I got the other related pieces like the kitchen, beedroom, and living room, I don't necessarily count that as stand-alone. I also have two public restrooms... one by FirstBastion and the school bathroom that was the freebie a couple of years ago. I actually have my eye on the Louisiana Bathroom as it is very realistic for a stand-alone bathroom.

    The squat toilet is popular on the continent. I've only ever seen one once here in the UK, in the house of a guy who lived with his French girlfriend.

    Only in some regions, I guess... never seen one in Germany, where I live, or Denmark which I visited a couple times... also none to be seen on TV movies or series from Sweden, Norway, Finland, Holland, Belgium....
    I heard there are still some in rural regions in France, Spain and Italy (seen one there in working condition in the National Museum of Sardinia and had to use it...) and I know they are the rule in rural Turkey...

    So "popular on the continent" doesn't really fit I'd say...

    They still seem to be popular in most parts of Asia though...

  • I think I remember there being at least one squat toilet on ShareCG somwhere, too.

    As for bathrooms where the toilet lid doesn't move, and is in the down position... that's one of my pet peaves, too.  Particularly bearing in mind that most of the time I get a restroom set because I want to do going-to-the-toilet sorts of scenes, so having a bathroom where the toilet lid is permanantly in the down position makes that set largely useless to me.  And yeah, I've also noticed the situation of shower doors that don't swing open, shower curtains that don't move, etc...  0.o

     

     

  • Perhaps one of the reasons there are so many bathrooms is they can be relatively easy to build and texture. With the exception of certain features such as shower curtains, towels or decorative plants they usually consist of hard shiny surfaces that are quick and easy to construct. Having said that, from my experience most projects are easy to start but when you begin to look at finer details such as modelling taps/faucets complexity can soon creep in and skill becomes more of a factor.

    Bathrooms and kitchens are the common rooms in most houses that have built in fixtures like tubs and sinks. There are also a lot of kitchens in the store. Most other rooms are boxes with furniture inside, so its easier to model furniture and sell that. A bedroom, living room, study, or entertainment room is based on the furniture in it most of the time, rather than specialized fixtures.

    I'd think it pretty obvious that a bathroom set is simply a good excuse for rendering a character in a state of relative undress.  DAZ has an inordanant number of bedroom sets and swimming pool sets as well.

    You haven't seen a good bathroom until you've lived in Japan.

    There's also that big public shower room that's good for such scenes.  Though, I suppose, the same principle applies to swimming holes.

  • no one has mentioned those ones urinals that have mouths,  faces or figures oh and the ones with unique floor paintings and then there are toilet seats that have creatures in them like fish not real ones seen fair few unique ones online
