    Have to say I like Chris Cox's clothing today: https://www.daz3d.com/dforce-street-league-outfit-for-genesis-9-and-8-female The options & morphs are good. Much appreciated.

    I just wish it weren't yet another crop top.

    +1 If I never see another croptop it will be too soon

    Looks nice, but I am afraid of complains about too much body shows up, while used in renders.

    I bought it as a pair of trousers, to be sued with other tops.

    TruSky Nights really seems to be great. I was going to ask about auroras but then read more..and YES ..plus other stuff. Seems pretty complete sky viewing. In the cart. Has anyone tried it yet? easy to use?

    @daveso I got it but haven't had a chance to try it. Looks really cool and fills a need.

    I can't figure it out. There are 5 scripts in the product. I am trying to follow the PDF Manual. After two pages of blah, blah, about al the wonderful features, it starts talking about The Location & Time Tab. It doesn't say which of the 5 scripts I need to run to find The Location & Time Tab. After experimentation, I found it in the TruSky Nights script, alphabetically the last script shown in the Products thumbnails. Then the manual says I need to pick a city by starting to type in the city box. It is supposed to automatically find cities with the letters I type in the city box, but it doesn't. It doesn't find any city, no matter what I type in. At this point, I was too frustrated to spend any more time on it today. It says it is DS 6 compatible. I am trying to use it in the DS6 Public Build. 

  • It says it uses the HYG Database so I'm guessing you have to be logged into Daz studio so it can connect to that database and find the city. Are you logged in?

    I am guessing it uses similar protocols to programs like Twinmotion that has a time of day and season based on lattitude and longitude and uses an interactive map

    That database is a public database. Not a DAZ database.

    Crop tops don't bother me at all, but I live in a city that has an effective summer nine months of the year (96 degrees today with a heat index of 99, with several weeks of 90+ weather to go thru early October at least.)  As a result I see a lot of crops on both males and females all day long... what I find weird is the ones who insist on wearing thick hoodies in this weather.

    The ad in the store says that it comes with a detailed user guide on PDF.  Is that not there?

    love the fast food character bundle heart

  • Mayor McCheese. Need a Grimace and Hamburgler.

    I would have preferred the office bundle for $2.99.

    Sure, the food characters are fun. But I can't imagine using them. For $2.99, I'll buy them. But like the apple cider gang, they aren't really useful.

    Now, if they were movie theater characters: Soft Drink, Popcorn Bucket, Mike n Ike, and so on. Then at least they could be used as part of a "keep our theater clean" poster or animation. :)

  • I only picked them up because I needed a GT and they were the cheapest option. Immediately hidden in DIM, they're not my bag at all. Cost massively outweighed by the discounts on other stuff though so I'm not too fussed.

    I am still annoyed with Daz's wording - "Owners or Buyers of any Golden Ticket get:" This implies ANY GT from when it started, not that it only applies to the ones currently shown on the page.

    No I don't log in inside DS.

    Yes it has a PDF manual. I referred to it in my message.
  • The Fast Food Genesis 9 Bundle looks good to me. Its got a drive-thru which might be the first one I've seen at Daz, or anywhere for that matter, lots of fast food restaurants but they never come with the drive thru part. And the fast food uniform looks great too, for those 2 items it's a good deal even if you don't use the characters.

    The bundle is nicely priced though. It looks very good.

    Like donnie above, if it were only the characters, I wouldn't download it as a freebie. But the food store and the uniform are certainly more than worth the price.

  • Yes, I should have clarified that I referred to the office bundle.

    Oh, sure. But at $2.99 it would be even better. :)

    XIVON is the savior of the DO bundle.

    The office bundle immediately went into my shopping cart. The office setting felt real, like someone was actually using it, not just a stage set. The clothing perfectly met my current requirements: it had to be movable and transformable, not just a "prop on my body." It even included poses for using a mouse.

    I really liked the office bundle and actually both bundles went into my cart. The clothing, office set and three pose sets/morphs that create a professional reality. I have other products from the PA aurora and all have been excellent. My cart right now is filled with other bundles by aurora and any 'required items' they need. I somehow missed these when they came out.

    But DAZ, 10% off a gift card? This cart will wipe out the rest of my credit and I would love a 20% one that has better savings.

    Edit to correct typo.

    I never stop continuing to be baffled cheeky

    in my library I probably have a hundred office themed things at least, rooms, props, clothes etc

    until now, no fast food characters and  only a handfull of outlets and props

    I never worked in an office

    it must be fun going by the enthusiasm devil

    I eagerly clocked off from my factory/bakery job and headed for the fast food joint

    never the other way around surprise

    Working in an office is just sooooo much fun. Must be, one of my co-workers reached 47 years working for the company today. He's been in the design/technical department since 1982 having joined in 1979. Designing boxes. Humph.

    Regards,

    Richard.

    Actually, I have worked in military offices and corporate offices and I can't count the number of times I ran into a fast food place for breakfast to go, lunch, or a bite for dinner when my day was long and I couldn't face my kitchen after a 10 - 12+ hour day. (This of course was after I could afford to buy a car, insurance and had a driver license.)

    But coffee, I bring from home and fill-up at the office's free supply of coffee or tea during the day (as well as water).

    Restaurants, bookstores, flower shops, supermarkets, pharmacies... there's definitely a lack of uniforms for various industries, both in terms of buildings and staff. What I really want are uniforms for convenience stores and their staff. Although there are a few American-style uniforms here, I need a Japanese style, and it would be perfect with delivery trucks and drivers as well.

    By the way, the educational concept I received growing up was that "if you don't study hard, you can only become a worker (physical laborer) in the future," and most people would definitely choose to work in an air-conditioned office.

    I tried

    I dropped out of 2 different uni couses and went back and studied parttime at TAFE while working in my late 20s

    cannot put more brains in where there aren't many cheeky

    While you are being facetious, the PAs make what they think will sell. And I think coffee shops top the interior environment list.

  • It's not like there's a shortage of coffee shop assets though.

  • WendyLuvsCatzWendyLuvsCatz Posts: 41,639

    massage parlours of a certain type. kink dungeons and brothels seem to be in short supply though

    definitely not my thing but I feel they would be popular
