You want Daz to succeed? Buy stuff from Daz. Simple as that.

NFT has nothing to do with the mission.

Daz can sell NFT if they want? Sure. It's a free country.

Daz could also get into arms sales (should be a big industry in the years ahead with all the world turmoil), silicone adult companionship (aka sex dolls), all kinds of growth industries out there.

They'd also be side gigs that are irrelevant to the mission.

Technically, heavily armed gynomorphic "adult recreational" companions are a natural evolution of the current content library here in at 678,954,986,129,002 possible variations of the current timeline... Oddly in fourteen possible futures, it's various flying biomechanical squid and in four it's robotic sheep with multiple detachable accoutrements.

Someone should really take that idea and run with it.

Just a few of the promos I have done:

So it's like Victoria 4 vs. Victoria 4.2?

No, it's more like V4.1 vs. V4.2

V4.0 wasn't EXP enabled and didn't have an eyebrow bone and mesh.

I can't imagine that many reviews from random folks will be useful.  Back in the heyday of Victoria 4, you'd see a lot of reviews at Renderosity.  The most common review was general, uninformative praise.  Seeing user-made renders is more useful, but those are not necessary if the PA has promotional renders which are well planned and executed.  Great content can look awful when used by the incompetent.  

So it's like Victoria 4 vs. Victoria 4.2?

Victoria 4 can't be installed using Daz Connect due to the way her morphs work.

Please help me!
I am Helmut Pape from Germany.I hope, translate deepl is correct.

Please help me. I have installed DAZ Studio correctly. 
First works with Genesis were ok.
I have bought the program Bundle Victoria 4.2 and 
downloaded and then installed it. Various parts
of the program are installed properly, for example the programs
 to the hair.
Apparently not installed correctly are:

Programs with picture frames and warning triangle with exclamation mark
at Lost and Found: Baxicwear for V4 A4 G4 and Elite; Victoria 4.2 Shapes++ Studio CF
 People: Victoria 4.2 Base Studio CF
also under Poses the same display with Victoria 4.2 Base Studio CF

under Saved Files a display with 01_Shorts

What do I have to do to install these programs correctly?
I would like to use them!
Thanks a lot for the help!
Have a good day!
Helmut

the German Text:
Bitte helft mir. Ich habe DAZ Studio korrekt installiert. 
Erste Arbeiten mit Genesis waren in Ordnung.
Ich habe das Programm Bundle Victoria 4.2 gekauft und 
heruntergeladen und dann installiert. Verschiedene Teile
des Programms sind ordentlich installiert, zum Beispiel die Programme
 zu den Haaren
Scheinbar nicht korrekt installiert sind:

Programme mit Bilderrahmen und Warndreieck mit Ausrufezeichen
unter
Lost and Found: Baxicwear for V4 A4 G4 and Elite; Victoria 4.2 Shapes++ Studio CF
 People: Victoria 4.2 Base Studio CF
ebenso unter Poses die gleiche Anzeige mit Victoria 4.2 Base Studio CF

unter Saved Files eine Anzeige mit 01_Shorts

Was muss ich tun, um diese Programme korrekt zu installieren?
Ich möchte sie nutzen!
Vielen Dank für die Hilfe!
Einen guten Tag!
Helmut

I don't get it....

Memorable Victoria 4, Michael 4 and Genesis Items

Buy any New Release to get an EXTRA 50% OFF* up to 10 of these Items

 

that means, if i buy a new product like e.g., then i should get another +50% discount on 10 products, shouldn't i?
The product https://www.daz3d.com/lord-of-snow-for-michael-4 currently has -50% and due to the promotion it has -80% in the shopping cart. 20% are missing. Because it should actually be free now.

The product https://www.daz3d.com/superhero-bundle has currently -30% and by the action it has then -65% in the shopping cart. It is missing 15%.

With the products from https://www.daz3d.com/memorable-g8-select-items, https://www.daz3d.com/memorable-g8-classics and https://www.daz3d.com/memorable-g3-select-items i also don't get another 35% or 30% discount but only 24% or 22% - so in total 74% and 72% instead of 80% or 85%.

When something is 50% off and gets an extra 50%, it's 50% off of what's left, so that actually becomes 25% off more, or 75% off total. So when calculating discounts, you have to keep in mind that each extra discount is only taking that percent of what's left, not the base price. It's called Daz math around here.

Ahh.... that makes sense.

I see no discount at all and I'm expecting to see 30% which is the PC discount on DO's. 

Everything in the store right now is full price including sale items and new items.

Such as this:

edit: ok, everything has lost their sale/discount prices

What discount do you see and are you expecting?

There is no new geometry! There are too many people saying something like this. The eyes and teeth do not have any different geometry. Any difference you see is the texture. For the eyes, they have a new UV map. This is possibly the best change.

However, this UV can easily be applied to OG 8. The teeth? That is nothing more than a new texture. The neck is now a separate UV from the torso.

PBR Skin?? Guys, you can apply PBR Skin to a rock. Or a tree. Or a wall. Anything, let alone every Daz character ever created. Yes, you can PBR Skin to Victoria and Michael 1 if you really wanted to. PBR Skin is a shader. It is not exclusive to 8.1, though you do need Daz 4.15 and up to use it.

The eyelashes and tears are now separate props, and these props have changed, they actually do have new geometry. The lashes are slightly different while new tear prop is very different from the old tear that came attached to lashes. The new tear sort of wraps around the eye, and covers the lacrimal. This allows the eyes, lacrimal, and eyelids to be tied together better than before, and if used well this can make a difference. So I have to say the new tear is step forward.

But I must point out that even these props can be assigned to OG 8. You can simply change their scene IDs to be compatible with G8, save as new props, and boom goes the dynamite. They can be used on 8.0. So...they are not really exclusive to 8.1. Frankly any enterprising PA could have made these as a product for 8.0. I suppose they still could.

What does that leave? The facial bones have been adjusted. Some people think they look better. I think they just look different...and different is not necessarily better.

So there are a few improvements. But the reality is that nearly all of the improvements can be applied to existing G8 characters.

Thanks. That's the Penny Dreadful dress on Ninive 6.

Genesis 2 and Victoria 4 had a lot of nice historical(ish) dresses. Whenever I do an historical or historical fantasy render I usually go to those two generations. I'm a "use whatever figure works for the render idea" so I'm not picky about generations. Genesis 8 is getting a nice selection of fantasy and historical(ish) gowns too. Using G8F a little more frequently now for those historical fantasy renders.

Also used the hat from Love Potion for G2F, with the Sugar Roses. Tree from Dark Trees Pack and this autumn leaf prop.

Retextured the dress and hat with a linen tile from Fabiana's Shader Plan - Iray Lace and Linen from Rendo.

I have another witchy render that's failing in iray so I might be back to post one more image. :)

Depends on how much I have to do today. I'd converted the old R-75 motorcycle and side car to a sleek black beast in iray -- it looked so nice! -- and now I'll have to try and get it to look as close as possible in 3DL. I don't have a lot of car paint suitable shaders for that sort of thing in 3DL so I'm going to have to do some experimenting.
