So I bought https://www.daz3d.com/deepsea-eve-hd-for-genesis-through-genesis-8
the figure G8F as is, is great! Just wondering what exactly is the purpose of all the different UV sets, is it a new way to create UV cross compatibility between figures?

Some people still use the earlier generations of Genesis for various reasons, a lot of them being animation and export to other animation programs. You can also use up to Genesis 2 in Poser. The UV sets I'm not sure about ;) Maybe just because UDIM is the standard nowdays.
Good day
Here's my youtube channel video with Deepsea Eve HD demo.

I hope it help you to understand a new UV Set.
Yeah, I am lost on the new UV sets also, even after watching the video. I am guessing it has something to do with anyone that might use Mari and wants to create characters for different generations, kinda like a new base to create on, but it doesn't mention merchant resource, so I am still unsure.
it is a nice looking figure though and pretty cool the shape works on all generations.
You can use uvs as a merchant Ressource.
Well, I surely don;t need to think about using Mari. About choked to death when I saw the pricing.
Anyway, the character and texturing is really nice.
I wonder if having the same UVs through the generations will allow us to map transfer better from g2f-g3f.... /thoughtfulemoji
The Genesis 3 and 8 Female Texture are not compatible with Genesis and Genesis 2 Female. This is a reason why this pack has 3 sets of texture.
I created a new Genesis and Genesis 2 UVS with a larger surface and I separated the arms and the legs to get more detailed textures very close to that of generation 3 and 8. Anatomical elements is more detailed also. You can applied of course an old Genesis texture but you will not be able to take full advantage of this new UVS and the Iray setup shaders. However you can create an original texture using this new UV and Shaders.
These UVs are UDIM. Just select Deepsea UVS with Anatomical Elements if you want and export as OBJ. Import to Mari for exemple and it's ready for texturing.
So did I. $14 for the character and $2000+ for Mari. Ha!
Nevertheless, I'm tempted to buy her even though I might not be able to do anything with the textures. One thing I'm not sure about (and I can't connect to the YouTube video for some reason) - are the anatomical elements based on the G8F set from DAZ or are they a special, made for the character? Just asking as I don't have the DAZ AE (refuse to buy a pro bundle just to get them).
Oh nice! That's great to hear! Thank you, Deepsea! :)
If Blender doesn't support UDIM already, it will soon and it's free. You don't need Mari ;).

Works in Blender.
I've not yet created a complete texture set in Blender, but I have adjusted pre-existing G8/3 era textures.
Looking at it, Blender 2.82 got UDIM support; 2.83 is due next week too, with some great additions.
It's by CG Cookie (and free), and their stuff is good quality; I used to pay for membership, but stopped when I went back to Uni. I'll probably start up again though.
I made a new video to show you EVE HD on Genesis through Genesis 8. How to export obj with right UVS and imported mesh to Mari, Substance Painter and Blender.

I love her , she fit the real world woman great. I love the versatility of her with having all the uv options , I only wish more character creators would support back generations. as a person that is interested in creating animation using daz studio its very refreshing to have the support.
Thank you deepsea for the great character , I'll try to get some renders done of her as soon as I get some free time. I look forward to more characters like this . maybe a male companion?
thank you very much. will check it out. Looks like its time to learn Blender.
@ Deepsea might want to have whoever check the product page ;-) Needs a little tlc to have the video display.
And thank you for the MR uv sets. I hope it's okay to use these for freebies as well?
"Blacked by X-Frame Options Policy" will be fixed on Monday By Daz3D
If you want to show video now You'll need to go to my youtube webpage

Off course you can use UVs for freebies
Next week I will start working on the men's version : Deepsea Adam HD for Genesis Through Genesis 8
It will take a little patience because it is a long work
Thank you! In the basket it goes :-)
Would you mind answering my question about the anatomical elements please? (See above)
If I understand your question, no he did not make any new anatomical elements. The textures apply to the existing ones from most any of the Pro packs.
................
The G3F and G8F load using the Base Female uvsets. The new uvs are available in the drop down list on the Surface Tab. The AE do not have any new uvsets.
The G2F and Genesis figures load using a mixture, mostly the new uvset - watch the eyes ;-) Their AE do have the new uvsets.
Beautiful character Deepsea. Purchased.
Ah, ok thanks. I don't have the pro-pack version (I don't buy pro bundles) so no good to me.
Bought, my poor Daz Credit balance!
Lovely character.
Yes it is a lovely character - for all the Genesises :-)
All right. Got the templates made for the new UV sets using Stitch Witch. Posted in the Freebies section. Click here for thread.
I made a short video tutorial to show you how to use Custom Eve UVs with the new features of Substance Painter : Paint across the UVs.
You can download it with this link

Out of curiosity, could someone who has Eve do a render of the base G8F texture on Eve's UV, and vice versa?
thank you!
I created some short tutorials to show you the best easy way to export Genesis figure with Anatomical Elements from DAZ Studio to Substance Painter.
For Genesis 1 and Genesis 2 Adam or Eve required.
For Genesis 3 and Genesis 8 Adam or Eve required only if you want to export figure with anatomical elements.

It's a shame that both of your new products (Eve and Adam) don't have Poser set up files for the Genesis and Genesis 2 since they were set up to work mostly natively in that program.
