You CAN fit V4 internal organs to Victoria 8. First, fit it to a Genesis figure, then fit it from Genesis to Genesis 8 Female. It may not be perfect, but might be good enough for your purposes. (I just tried it and it seems to be doing well in various poses)

They are conforming prop items, so they will bend and move when the figure does (although, again, if you've fit it for another figure, this might break amusingly). You cannot morph it significantly or unravel the intenstines.

It's an old product, it's 3DL only.

Some dashing, amazing PA did an Iray materials product that applies to this and a number of other V4/M4 anatomy items, here: https://www.daz3d.com/iray-materials-for-daz-anatomy

(And as I type this, hey, look, it's on sale)

 

Gosh, thanks for a lightning-speed reply :) Can you elaborate more on First, fit it to a Genesis figure, then fit it from Genesis to Genesis 8 Female. ? Could you explan this more noob-friendly? Also, the lack of Iray materials is not a problem, I'm using 3DL only, my GPU is too slow for Iray.

Thanks for all the comments people. I already saw Gore-Dom, but it's not really what I'm looking for - I actually have morphs for G8 which simulate a belly ripped open, and I need something to put into the hole :D So primarily I'm looking for intensines and thick blood splatter props, but yeah... as far as I can see, everything is made just for IRAY. Guess I'm gonna have to figure out how to convert these water shaders to 3DL  and make them red :P

Actually no need trying to convert anything that doesn't have textures/maps. Just apply the 3DL shader you want to use, and adjust diffuse color/strength, opacity, glossiness, reflectiveness, refraction index and so on. I would definitely use a shader that has SSS, like OmUbersurface or AoA SSS. The DS default shader is too limited for this purpose IMO. Happy to help you with settings if you need it;)

Haha thanks :) Are the AoA shaders commercial (just like the AoA light pack?). Actually, I have a semi-related question which I posted here ->

https://www.daz3d.com/forums/discussion/304866/victoria-4-internal-organs-product-question#latest

Would you mind taking a look?

Hi! I was thinking about buying this:

https://www.daz3d.com/v4-internal-organs

But I'm not sure about something. I have purchased Victoria 8 from the daz store, and it says something about 'backwards compatibility'. Does this mean, any product designed for previous Genesis Female characters will work? Will this organ set work on Victoria 8?

Also, has anyone used this product? Can you for example untangle the organs, or are they just 'still' props? Or, can you simply load the organs as a separate prop or It has to be attached to a Figure?

And in the product description we can read:

• DAZ Studio Material Presets (.DSA)

Does this mean it works both with 3Delight and Iray?

Sorry again for another portion of noob questions, I'd just like to know what I'm buying :)

EDIT: Do I need to buy the skeleton separately for this to work? I don't need it really, i just need the organs :)

I’ve tried Genesis 1 hair, Victoria 2 hair. Nothing seems to load properly on the head. 

Any hair type or specific products you could recommend?

Errrr... what's a chain item ?

In the meantime, here's my pull #4:
#1 - 31 - Ace of Spades Jack    ...an M4 outfit, good start!
#2 - 1526 - This n That Extravaganza 1    ...DAZ Store can't find it -a bundle from the PC anniversary sale - way back in the old days (Dark Designs - Volume 2,  GIS Nova, GIS Terminal, Lisa's Botanicals - Climbing Vines, Resplendent Tresses, Stellar)
#3 - 990 - Millennium Girls   ...DAZ Store can't find it - probably too old. PreTeen/PreSchool characters (V1/2 texture-compatible).Got it!
#4 - 1241 - Ruffle Bikini Textures   ...don't have the bikini
 #4b - 337 - Dark Ops Ready-to-Render Bundle     ...DAZ Store can't find it. One of the DS 4 freebie bundles - contains: Dark Ops Ready to Render Scene(.DUF); Victoria 4.2 Base; Victoria 4 gw 5 female texture; De Roca Hair; Tango Down V4; Michael 4 Base; Michael 4 Skin Maps (High Res); Michael 4 Creature Creator Morphs; AFC for Men; Loading Dock)
455 - DSON Importer for Poser BETA (Inactive)   ...don't use DSON
LB1 - 943 - Mermaid   ...DAZ Store can't find it - probably too old. It's the old V1/2 era stand-alone mermaid.Got it!

Edit: and of course a couple of 'chain items'...

Oh lordy, this one's sooo obvious now !

Hey there!

I tried to use a few items from this website: http://www.optitex-dynamiccloth.com/FreebieDownload01.php

I can't seem to auto-fit any of them to my G8 characters. I own SY's clones and have auto-fitted generation 4 clothes successfully before.

I get the impression that "dynamic clothing" is perhaps something different. Can those items be used with G8, and if so how?

Thanks!

RY Caprice for Victoria 8 as Reby Sky 2.0

I'm able to load and manipulate the MilWom_V3 figure; what I want is to transfer her particular shape to G2F form. I've got the GenX AddOn Gen3 for V3 and M3 but that option doesn't come up when using GenX2.

When I try to access to the source, I just get the Genesis 1-3 and Victoria 4.2. I'm not trying to transfer the default V3 shape, just a couple of V3 ladies with their particular shapes.

I may just be overcomplicating things with the pzz mention.

Have you definitely downloaded and installed the file called GenX2 Addon for V3 and M3, not the GenX (blank) one?

 

What are the chances we get two Caprice characters just days apart? I was slightly confused for a bit.

Agreed, There are so many names PAs can pick. There should only be one character with that name, at least within a generation. It can get very confusing in parameters. 

Since both products were released fairly shortly from each other, they were both in production at the same time and likely both were submitted before either of them even hit the store. Different people test the products so they might have not even known that two characters with the same name were being processed and tested. A very unusual occurrence for sure and not likely to happen again anytime soon.

To change the name of a character after it's been created is crazy difficult and hugely time-consuming. Every single texture, makeup, and file has to be renamed, every morph has to be remade and renamed, if you have made JCMs or MCMs those have to be redone too, shape presets and character preset has to be remade, every material preset has to be reset up and remade, icons and tip files changed/renamed, if promo images have the name of the character those have to be redone, etc etc. It's nearly like starting over from scratch to set up a character again if you have to rename everything. Then you have to resubmit the character and go through the lengthy submission process again and the testing period again (which can sometimes take weeks depending on how busy the testers are), etc.

Forcing one of the PAs to, essentially, start over again would have been a pretty unreasonable request, imo. 

I’m pretty sure that at one a point, one character I had rewrote over another so maybe the first thing PAs should do before they even start is ask if that name is already taken... 

I'm not sure what you mean by "one character I had rewrote over another". I don't know how that could happen.

And again, they were released only four days from each other - the submission and testing process can take weeks, so when they were submitted and put through the process that name was not taken at the time. As I said, I'm sure this is a very unusual occurrence and coincidence that two characters with the same name were submitted at the same time. The odds of that happening are very slim, so this is likely just an odd and very rare occurrence.

There was a situation where one character rewrote over another in parameters because they had the exact same name. Can’t remember which one it was though. What I meant is, the PA could contact their Daz rep and ask if there’s a character named whatever already in production before they even name their character and the rep could check. So if all names were checked before the PA even started, then you wouldn’t have this problem and confusion...

Hmm I just tried saving a G8F character with the exact same name as an existing G8F character, loaded them both onto a scene and neither of them "rewrote over" the other one, so I'm not sure how that's possible how one of your characters got wrote over with another one? Maybe if they were saved in the exact same location in the exact same file? But the PAs save their characters in their own individual character files. So I'm not sure how one would be able to overwrite another one. *shrug*

Considering how many different people are working on testing products and their workload it's pretty unrealistic to expect them all to keep in constant contact with each other with the names of the products currently being tested - considering how rare it must be to have two products submitted at the same time with the exact same name. And technically, one is just Caprice and the other is RY Caprice for Victoria 8. I'm not sure that it's an issue enough to warrant the added workload of having the testers being in constant contact with all the other testers over the currently being tested products names and PAs having to check with Daz testers to see if there are any products currently being tested with the exact name they want to use each time they make a new character. Most (all?) PAs check the store to see if something is released that has a name they want to use, the odds that a product is in the testing/pre-release stage with the exact same name is undoubtedly very rare. And I'm sure if the names where EXACTLY the same Daz would make one PA change it, but again, it's probably extremely rare for two products with the exact same name to get submitted at the same time. :) Not enough to warrant the added work and back and forth between all the testers as well as all the PAs and the testers. :)

When I try to access to the source, I just get the Genesis 1-3 and Victoria 4.2. I'm not trying to transfer the default V3 shape, just a couple of V3 ladies with their particular shapes.

Hello,

I have recently started using DazStudio and have purchased Victoria 8 but I have also noticed that there are several characters that have been made for the Genesis 3 based Victoria 7 that I like. I was wondering if I would be able to use the G3 Victoria 7 based characters with Victoria 8 if I purchase the Victoria 7 for Victoria 8 morph package? 

Thanks in advance for any replies.

You will find though that V4 base is pretty basic,  you really need to buy V4 Morphs++ as well to get any real mileage from her  The cheapest way to get V4 and her morphs++ is the Starter BUndle   https://www.daz3d.com/victoria-4-2-complete

V4.2 is simply the latest version of V4.

Here's the link to the base product page: https://www.daz3d.com/victoria-4-2-base She's a standalone figure.

If you're not in a hurry, V4.2 or some of her bundles are often offered as part of big sales or even as freebies, so it might be worth waiting a bit...

Also, not sure I can even use the 4.2 alone, as it says Victoria 4 is required.  Is there any way to get Victoria 4 without paying $140?

I haven't gotten my hands on Victoria or Michael yet, since I'm still a bit new with Daz3D. My current main character is a G8 Female who has some elements of the Keriann morph.

It's okay, they're cool but not essential! Buy something else first for your library if you want to! ^^

Check the license - for items from the Daz store, you can use the content to create still and animated 2D output and (with a limited exception for the Anne Marie Goddard Digital Clone for Victoria 3) use it as you wish. Some other content, especially freebies, may impose more constraints.

Hi,

I try to implement Genitalia on my "Michael 8 Pro Bundle" with Genesis 8 Male Anatomical Elements
 

But, my "element" don't have skin. I try to add color, texture, surface, skin but nothing works.

Can you help me to fix this problem ?

I need to buy another package on renderotica ? it's mandatory ? (like Easy Control For Genesis 8 Male ?)

Same problem for Victoria 8 female.

Thanks a lot.

Best regards.

Eric.
