    Sorry, Eva 7 is what I meant. My bad!

    Has anyone else noticed the Holiday Banner Discount not coming off of some things? Here are a few things in my cart where the discount isn't applying: 

    Dark Whisper, Casual Style and Moto Racer Outfit don't have any additional discounts. Montana and Sidereal do. Weird. Wondering if they are in a category that goes on sale tomorrow or was on sale recently, so the algorithms are off.

    Yeah, I noticed that the Holiday Loyalty Rewards discount wasn't working on some of the items too. Bummer. :(

    @WandW

    ​Yeah, when I realized I could get a free stater Gen 3 figure... it made me decide to bite the bullet.

    ​I got Bethany 7 too... who I wouldn't have purchased otherwise. I had everyone else, either in base, starter or pro.

    That's weird that the Michael 6 starter bundle is free, the Victoria 7 starter bundle is too, but only base Michael 7 is in the free promotion. I wonder if it has something to do with the age of the product. Eva 7 and Bethany 7 starter bundles were also in these last two free starter bundle promotions. I'm guessing those were the first ones to come out? Seems like M7 had just come out late last fall when I discovered DAZ.

    That V4 for G2F product is really cool! It lets you wear V4 textures on G2F characters as well as lets G2F wear V4 clothes, hair, etc. :)

    Highly unlikely as many newer bundles have been offered at times as has M7. For him to be the one odd one out like that they probably just added the wrong product by mistake.

    Hey, did you all notice it says today is the LAST Day for 2015 and 2016 top sellers? Grab 'em while you can. Though a few I think I've seen lower prices on...all in all, it's been a great month of sales though. Even with the glitches.

    has anyone tried putting the Michael 7 Starter bundle in the cart to see if it works? Just in case they put the wrong image on the sale page?

    I still haven't quite figured it out, but I knew I wanted it. :)

    The V4 Skin/Textures has to be saved as a file type that is compatible with Genesis. Sadly many V4 skins aren't, so you have to manually load those to G2F. But once you load it manually you can save it as a "material preset" so you won't have to load it manually ever again. 

    The first time doing it can be a pain though, but with some of the really great V4 skins, it's worth it for those, imo. What I do is:

    1) Load G2F and V4 onto a scene. 

    2) First check to see if the skin you want loads onto G2F (some of them will, but most won't). If it won't, load the skin/texture that you want onto V4 instead. 

    3) Once it's on V4, you can copy the surfaces in the surfaces tab from V4 to G2F. Like under V4's surfaces tab, go to "SkinFace" and right click "Copy Selected Surfaces". You can then click on G2F and go to her surfaces tab and select "Face" and right click "Paste to Selected Surface". You can do that for all of the surfaces that you need to transfer. 

    4) Once you've copied the surfaces to G2F it will look odd - but that's because she's using the wrong UV set. Just change the UV Set on G2F from "Base Female" (or whatever UV set your character uses) to "Victoria 4". 

    It's kind of a pain so I only recommend it for your favorite V4 skins. Once the skin/texture is on G2F you can then save it as a Material Preset and that way you never have to load it that way again. :)

     

    If you just want the product for wearing V4 clothing on G2F, then that is a LOT easier. lol When you go to load V4 clothes onto G2F and it asks you "What figure was the item originally designed for" just chose Victoria 4 and chose what type of item it is and it usually loads just fine. :) The only exception is shoes, as it sometimes has trouble fitting V4 shoes onto G2F. But that can be said for transferring shoes from any figure - shoes are just a pain in the bottom. lol

     

    I hope that helps! :) 

     

    Edit - Wonderland suggests a WAY easier way to transfer the skin textures: http://www.daz3d.com/forums/discussion/comment/1949016/#Comment_1949016

    Thank you, Wonderland! :D

    Or you can apply V4 textures to Genesis 1 and save it as a preset, then apply to Genesis 2. There is also a batch converter for sale.

    Yay - every PA on sale - been saving the last of my store credit for Wear Them All G3M (already got G3F version and it's fantastic) - now I can relax and render in peace.

  • AtiAti Posts: 9,182

    50% is not bad along with the loyalty bonus. I can get all remaining items that were on my "2016" list. (Okay, it's a short list of 5 items, but still... :))) Hooray! :) Thank you, Daz! :)

  • ServantServant Posts: 765

    The New Year sale also applies to PC+ items along with the Loyalty discounts, so prices as low as $0.70, FYI.

  • AtiAti Posts: 9,182

    Some DO items end up being 80% off, while others are just 71% off.

    http://www.daz3d.com/summer-girl-for-genesis-2-female-s
    This will become 80% off in the end.

    http://www.daz3d.com/sora-hair
    This will only become 71% off.

    What's the difference? surprise

    Emma and Jordi are one of the featured artists on the Christmas Day offer. I put a DO in my cart from another artist featured in the same sale, and the discount was also 71%. Looks like the two offers are conflicting. I got out my calculator. The 71% your seeing is 60% stacking with the member discount, but there is no Holiday Loyalty Rewards for those items. (And don't get me started on why that's just wrong!)

    Wow, I didn't look that far back. Never thought of the loyalty discount not applying because of a sale we had a week ago. Thanks for the explanation!

    I can't get all the items I have in my cart anyway. At least that gives a clear signal on which items will have to go for now. :)

    Free bundle with purchase of 2 or more 2013, 2015 and 2015 best sellers does not work anymore (have the items below in my cart, the bundle was 0.00 yesterday now it's 18.36). I suppose the offer is still valid since the banner is there?
