I just bought her as I can use Victoria 8 items on her, but I can not afford to buy Victoria 8.1 items as I will not be able to use it on Victoria 8.

I spend SO MUCH money on Victoria 8 so far, not to mention Victoria 3 and 2.

I can not really do this and I think I am not alone with that.

 

Turns out you're in luck. You don't need to invest in or buy G8.1 items. The only things that aren't 100% inter-compatible are some G8 expressions and the G8.1 expressions along with textures won't be backward compatible.

But it looks as if new G8.1 items won't work on G8 characters and I would have to buy the new G8.1 characters to use them.

Note to PAs: I already have invested heavily in buying G8 characters and if your new clothing, hair, etc. won't work on them then I won't be buying it. 

I bought her and will use what I have for G8F on her as I can not afford to spend more money on this hobby. I spend so much on Genesis 8, 3, and 2 and I can not justify spending more on a new figure. It is great that we can use our * old * G8F on Victoria 8.1, but it is not good that it is not backwards compatible.

What do you think of the new Victoria 8.1?

Apparently we are now going to have to purchase the newest model upgrades. I wager backwards compatible packages flood the market very soon. The tea leaves say it is so.

Is it just me, or does V8.1's face look nothing like V8's?

So... you guys are installing G8.1F and all your previous morphs and characters are available?  I'm jealous.  I've got a choice of Victoria or Victoria.

Tagging the bundle

Victoria 8.1 University Bundle | 3D Models and 3D Software by Daz 3D

When I tried to click on the link on my product page for Victoria 8.1 so I could print the promo pages, it redirected me to the DAZ main page. I have tried other links without success, except seeing the lovely main page. Is something going on? I thought I had looked at the promo page a few hours ago before I bought the bundle.

I just bought her as I can use Victoria 8 items on her, but I can not afford to buy Victoria 8.1 items as I will not be able to use it on Victoria 8.

The facial skin for Victoria 8.1 is a HUGE leap forward and I am very pleased with it!

Now we need hands too. :)

I am very glad I bought the Victoria 8.1 bundle and a few add-ons.

Gen 8 male eyelashes work on Victoria 8.1

I hope we don't have to wait months for Genesis 8.1 male and Michael 8.1  :(

I wish they had been released at the same time.

I tried putting a beard on Victoria and morphing her features to male and it t did not work too well.

She was still quite feminine, perhaps I am not artistic enough in this area..

What did work pretty well was putting beards on from Genesis 8 males to Victoria 8.1.

A few of them worked well and so did the male eyebrows.

If this is any indication of how well Michael 8.1 will work I am very excited to also buy Michael 8.1 asap...

I assume incompatibilities with some backward products will be ironed out over time.

I look forward to Michael 8.1 :)

Today's "Owners or buyers of the Victoria 8.1 University Bundle get 50% OFF* Select Genesis 8 Items" does not work for me. I have previously purchased the bundle, but it is not showing up as such. So at least the "owners" part does not work (for me).

You're showing the bundle in your Product Library? Have you tried relogging, another browser or device? Otherwise, you may need to put in a ticket.

No, the product library is not showing the bundle, and clicking on the "Victoria 8.1. University Bundle" link within my order shows a product library page with a swirly. I have filed a ticket. It is a bit frustrating, as I wanted to use the current discounts on some of the genesis items. 

I just hope this works unlike the mess that was Victoria 4.1 & 4.2.

@Chohole the victoria-8-1 link goes to the main store page for you? It shouldn't. See attachment.

So where did that link come from.    

See my first post, I took the link for the "University bundle" and reasoned the right address for V8.1 from that.

"Fine, short, vellus hairs ..."

Where, how ???

A bit exited about that one but can't find anything in the 8.1 base.

It is a seperate file completely called Genesis 8.1 Female Vellus Hair

Where to find that file and is it or is it not solely in Victoria 8.1?

@Chohole the victoria-8-1 link goes to the main store page for you? It shouldn't. See attachment.

Links work fine for me from the Daz 3d Store page

 The link leads to the main page "https://www.daz3d.com/";

I am sorry,  but I can't duplicate that behaviour
