 I bought the Victoria 9 Intro bundle.  I installed genesis 9 starter essentials and Victoria 9 HD.  I do not see any genitals in my downloads or library.  I do not have a product package labeled 'character essentials' or 'anatomical elements' or similar in either DIM or my product library.  Am I missing a download package?  If so, add to the reported problems.  If not, where are the naughty bits, and what else is hidden and where?

They are not free, You have to purchase the Character Essentials. They are in the store but not on the sale page for some bizarre reason.

Quick comparison render between genesis and genesis 9

base, woman, victoria

Original genesis is on left and 9 is on right

Here's a comparison between the original genesis(on the left) and Genesis 9 (on the right)

Basic figure, Basic woman, Victoria

Very basic render just for  comparison

The basic woman in 9 is better than what I was thinking in comparison. I think the base is a better base also.

What is the exact name of the product in the product library that contains the Genesis 9 genitals, and does that product have anything besides genitals?

I bought the Victoria 9 intro bundle.  Victoria 9 HD has shown up in DIM and my product library, as has Vox hair, swimsuits, and similar content.  The genesis 9 starter essentials are in my DIM and product library.  I do not have anything called 'character essentials' or similar, nor genesis 9 anatomical elements or similar in DIM or my product library.  Am I missing a download package?  Or am I looking in wrong place?

very strange day indeed... My Download manager had essentials 1&2 and Voss hair in it but no Victoria 9 or other pre-order bundle cloths .. I too ordered the Bundle on day one of the offer...  So yeah  they kinda screwed the pooch.. I started a ticket with my order number and at 4 pm eastern I got a reply to download it ... Well it still is not in my download manager soo...here we are..

I think the Victoria 9 pre-sales bonus was going on right up until Victoria 9 was released today.  Apparently Daz is rolling out the delivery of V9 products in batches, so you should probably receive it soon.  Make sure you search for Voss Hair for Genesis 9 in your DIM or Daz Central to see if it's there.  Otherwise, if you don't see it in a day or two, you can open a support ticket and the Daz sales team will make sure you get your bonus item.

Did you do a search for Genesis in you asset library? It's kinda Buried with the resetting of purchase dates on older items.

Hi Lilliana,

I did and I found all the Genesis 9 stuff but not Victoria 9 HD

I think she is super cute with her delicate features. Love her profile. This is not the hd version, but I rendered her w/ Victoria skin and then with GF9 skin. Now I'm playing with her expressions.

I got the coupon as well. I'm guessing they included us pre-order people as a mea culpa for today's screw up.

Yeah, my first reaction when I got an email saying "We've missed you ... Things haven't been the same without you .." was to think "Seriously, DAZ, I was on the site buying stuff yesterday. You're starting to come across as just a little clingy."

But as someone pointed out, even those of us who pre-ordered Victoria 9 long ago can still benefit from the second generous coupon included in the mail, so it seems ungrateful to complain.

The coupon looks generous until you see what you can apply it to and the recent best price of those items. The link goes to older Genesis, G2 and G3 stuff. I hope you find something useful.

Victoria 9, pixie hair, base pose and OOT's 10 in 1 clothing.

Love all the renders. The quality is a lot better than mine tend to...but here's one from me.

Victoria 9 hd figure, pixie hair, OOT's casual clothing and a base pose.

Can someone maybe tell me what are "Card Style" eyebrows? Are they only something to do with games or do they have a wider purpose?

If you have any charaters from Poser's Posette through all the Victoria's to Victoria 8 (sometimes!), eyebrows were created with a sheet of geometry, colored, and with a transparency of hairs to creste the look of eyelashes i.e... a card. They are also formally called transmapped eyelashes.  People figured out a different way to make hair, fibermesh, which is fully three dimensional, and Genesis 9 has both.  Renderers tend to like fibermesh and game-maker tend to like transmapped hair.

When can we expect a Bone Minion for Genesis 9? I hope it is "really soon" . I do have a lot of poses for G8 and G3 that would really look good on Genesis 9 and Victoria 9.

Bone Minion for Genesis 8 and 8.1 Poses for Genesis 9 is submitted and ready for testing.  Release dates are at Daz's sole discretion, so I don't know when it will be released; I would not expect it during the Genesis 9 launch period.

That is a pity, it would make Victoria 9 so much more useful. Actually, it should have been available right from the start. Nevertheless, I am waiting and ignoring the whimpering of my credit card. 

LOL.  Be strong!

Will all my pre-Genesis 9 content work with this latest version of DAZ Studio? I have content from Victoria 4 to Victoria 8.1 that I'd still like to use. I decided to hold off on Victoria 9 for now, but I would need DAZ Studio 4.21 to play with Genesis 9? My Nvidia driver is Game Ready Driver version 516.59. Will that work with the lastest DAZ Studio version? My current DAZ Studio version is DAZ Studio 4.20.0.17. Thank you in advance for your time.

All your content will work with this release. You can use driver 517.40 without any issues, just don't install 522.30 at this moment. You could always install the current Public Beta and keep 4.20.0.17, as the Public Beta is the same version as the current general release.

Thank you for the information
