I'm already in PC club, but I have so much content that I don't know if I'll renew when the time comes.

But that's an interesting question to explore.. if it's not content that would keep you interested, what would? 

I still really enjoy PC+, but this may be an idea to keep people around who are no longer finding value in it. Daz studio already has the ability to distribute files with drm. Here's a crazy idea, but what if you expanded that to PC+,and offer a selection of premium products on a weekly / biweekly "Loan" basis. So for two weeks, I can use Victoria 8 and a few other items for free. I download her through Daz connect, create a few scenes and at the end of the 2 weeks another product come up, and victoria "expires." That will give exposure to lesser-known content, we get to experience products that we wouldn't otherwise use, and we may then end up liking it and buying it. You could also offer permanent "Loan" items- such as the old 1.99 items, that you can use as long as you are subscribed to PC+. Sometimes I may need a sheep for a scene, for example, and don't necessarily want to buy it, as it's a once-off render. It would be nice to have access to these items when I need them. 

These are for V4 and I don't know how well they convert.

This is the best thread I have ever seen in these forums.  Thanks for GiGi_7 putting all of this together.

Thanks!!

Victoria 3 UV map is similar to Michael 3, Hiro 3, David 3 and Freak 3 (note: Freak navel is above the G3F figure navel).
Then Legacy UVs for Genesis 3: Special Edition - Victoria 3 can handle them.

 

G3F Male morph with Michael 3 maps

 

Wow! i didn't know it. Pretty good news. I wil add it in the google.sites pages

 

I own 2 Legacy UV converters by CaymanStudios from rendo (if it's ok to say that here)

Genesis 2 Female skins converted to Genesis 3 Female

Sorry if these have already been posted. Try to recap all the info.

Must be 5 years total time paid membership but not necessarily continuous. I've had this current DAZ account since 2009 and been PC+ member on & off that whole time but until 2016 I hardly bought anything or even downloaded the weekly freebies.

Going to tell on myself here I've had my account since they changed from Zygote to DAZ

I bought some stuff back when it was Zygote & then DAZ but not for long, maybe a year I messed with it. I remember buying the 1st Victoria & the 1st Michael and a a couple of the toonimals if you remember those. It was too expensive & I was actually very busy at a real job then too so I found other hobbies that required less learning (but more money - weekend excursions by plane or train are not cheap although most of the weekend trips i took weren't more expensive than a shopping excursion in the early Zygote/DAZ 3D store).

@Novica - my current PC+ membership was only for 3 months and expires this 22 Oct 2019 so Jul 22 - Oct 22 2019. I'm confident of the 10 years since I created this DAZ account less than half of it's been as a PC+ member.

This is Andrea Skin with her painted eyebrows.  Nikolina face morph plus some DAZ Head Morphs to modify the shape of the jaw and the roundness of the face.  She is wearing Sugar and Spike dforce dress (without the spikes).  Jewels are MRL Crystal Collection for Victoria 4 re-textured with Royal Jewels Universal Shaders included with the product.

She comes with a "Snow Fairy" skin that is very pale.

LOL I have her too but forgot about it.

Thank you all for the suggestions, I bought 

https://www.daz3d.com/maria-for-victoria-8

here just a while ago, and later on I will probably buy a few others to try them out as well.

If anyone else has any suggestions I would take them as well, as I can never have too many very pale textures, because i do a LOT of elf renders when I am rendering.

Virtual_Worlds I think has a knack for doing typical people but not so not so typical in the DAZ Store. 

I bought Maria today. Her pale skin is not your typical 'white girl'. Add some ears and she'd probably make a great elf.

She looks very pale, paler than usual, but then we're not used to seeing models that pale in the DAZ Store. Also, it's unusual for a person that pale to have no hint of ruddiness to their skin at all. When one considers how translucent her skin has to be to be that pale you then expect to see a flush of blood in places along with marbled white fat and skin tissues making up the complexion's colors. Snowflake for Aiko 7 has more ruddiness. I've been that pale myself before (when younger) but typically early in the morning when my skin is less flush with blood.

This skin is on sale in the PC+ For a Day sale today: https://www.daz3d.com/victoria-7-merchant-resource-pale-skin

It's for Victoria 7 (Genesis 3), and I don't know if you'd need her UV to get it to work, but it might be worth a look if the one you picked up isn't what you hoped for.

EDIT: Nevermind. I just did more perusal of Renderosity. Sheesh. I generally don't go there because I lurve the DAZ installer...but...dang...

 

A moderate car (think Honda Civic or Ford Fiesta) - Not a super car, not a collectable car...just...a car...like you gave a crayon to an 8 year old and said...draw me a car. That's what I want.

I'd keep going on options but I gave up on page ten after searching "Car".

Paperback and hardcover books that have open/close morphs (along with the associated hand pose). I've made some but they're not like what a pro would do. Maybe a whole research set (notes/books/coffee cup/pens/pencils/erasers/etc.) There are ways to fake this but it'd be nice to have a set.

Rendo has most of this again. Maybe not the poses, but they have a good array of books.

 Scholastic by Darkworld would be perfect, but you'd need to run the poses through several passes to update them... and you'll need to fix the mats.

Z Fun ClassRoom! is Gen8 and has some stuff too though isn't quite as on the money.

Bundles of boring clothes. Not sexy clothes. Just normal, boring, clothes. Slacks and a polo for men or just an average suit. For women, just some business casual options. Not going out for a hot party night. Just something plain.  (I may just need to shop more for this). 

A lot of that is just shopping around. Though keep in mind, boring clothes tend to autofit reasonably well so don't be afraid to go back as far as genesis, or even Victoria 4 if you have the right clones.

Leather/hide armor (for my stone age D&D game).

Stoneage D&D? Tell me moar...

That said again, Rendo has some incredible stonage sets.

The Gladeling Outfits by sixus1 look cool in that very "1 Million Years BC" Kinda way.

The dForce Neolithic Outfits by Deacon215 are very awesome too if you want something more historically accurate.

The dForce Grass Cord Outfits and dForce Tropical Leaf Outfit less so... but still fit just fine.

most users here only do stills

Daz isn't very good for animaition... blocking off stuff like Hair physics to PA only kinda cements that.

I have a love hate relationship with Renderosity. I find their prices to be high and the lack of an installer infuriating. However, they have a lot of nifty stuff that Daz wouldn't allow (for the most part). So I can get nifty stuff there but I have this chore of having to unpack it and find all the folders. Then again...lots of average cars. So...

Well..... here are some you might want look at.

Everyday Books

Everyday Stationery

Everyday Coffee

Everyday Tea

Or maclean for other things you may need.

 

THanks for pointing out the Coffee and Tea! I had the books and stationary (which is actually what prompted the question I think.)   

Maclean is great! I had about half of their stuff already wishlisted. LOL.

this ultimate clothing fixer G3F - it's not a converter, is it? it basically kinda adds a bunch of morphs into a G3F outfit that didn't really have them originally, is that correct? So if you had a dress for G3F and there were not many morphs in the long skirt...sitting, etc...this adds them?

Sorry to ask an OT question, but I was trying to find a thread for the Hair Converter from V4 to G8F where I could ask a question - is there one or perhaps a main thread for Riversoft Art's hair converters?

Here you go!

I just bought this figure a few days ago.  In the main promo and a couple of others she reminds me a little of Ruth Wilson.

Remember that Genesis 3 materails will also work, aside from the lashes and eyes to an extent.

Wait 3 and 8 are the same UV?

 

Yes, except:

- Eyes

- Lashes

- All G3 base characters have different UVs. So for example Victoria 7 and Aiko 7 have their own UVs, but Ceridwen for G3 or Snowflake for Aiko 7 have the same UV as G8F. Complicated and illogical? Yes, yes it is.

This one looks nice and have a lot of options:
