The Birds...Again
Tippi and her family had moved many times to escape Tippi's fatal attracting and aggravating of birds. Fortunately this time, on the remote Alfreds Islands, the local people commune with wild creaures and are able to calm them down before disaster strikes again.

I have Victoria 1 but not Michael 1. Maybe she can meet your Michael in Florida.

Hello, 

I am new to this and basically I want an overview of the basic figures belonging to the different Genesis levels and before as it seems somewhat confusing. I am sure they exists but the search systems in the forum, help or wiki don't throw them out, no matter what I fill in. Where can I find them?

With what I could find (the list of Genesis 2 figures I found seemed quite complete and I added those to Genesis 3 & 8) I figured out it should be something like this?

I certainly missed some. So if already a list exists fine else can you add to make it correct and complete?

Victoria and Michael, Aiko & Hiro

Victoria 2 and Michael 2, Aiko 2 & Hiro 2

Victoria 3 and Michael 3, Aiko 3 & Hiro 3

Victoria 4 and Michael 4, Aiko 4 & Hiro 4

Genesis Figures - the base list of figures:

Victoria 5 and Michael 5, Aiko 5 & Hiro 5

Genesis 2 Figures - the base list of figures:

Here's more PC+ orders. Obviously I don't have time to compare current prices, but this gives newbies who haven't been through a PC+ sale an idea of the sales. These all assume you had a qualifying item in the cart, sometimes it was cheapies like PC+ items. I combined two orders for this first one: (if you ever do this, go to source, above, and change the html. Take out the coding for the table width/border)

Love this order:

Had another Tesla room to get these prices. It was about $7. And of course, with most of these orders, I've yet to render them. Free is free though! 

Aha, next order-  that's when all the Legacy UVs either came out or were on sale. They were 7.90 apiece. (for Genesis 3: Genesis Pack, for Michael 4, for Victoria 5, Victoria 6, Genesis 2 Male and Michael 6.

Here's more prices, always with a qualifying item or two. P3D was in the sale, obviously. I bought the Airport Island products to get the discounts.

So with one or two qualifying items, you can see the pricing. After doing this for five years, there's not a whole lot left to pick up that I want. I do wish to point out the outfit textures for Genesis 3 in this list- if you are waiting to grab those, hopefully there will be some in this upcoming sale too.  

Edit: Scroll down to read about the gift card sale during the PC+ sale. 

FW Jolina HD For Victoria 8         Sebela Hair for Genesis 8 Females      Blooming Outfit for Genesis 8 Females

This is with that last light dome setting, settings brightened with Exposure Value.

FW Jolina HD For Victoria 8          Sebela Hair for Genesis 8 Females       FWSA LightsFX Neutral Environment 

Blooming Outfit for Genesis 8 Females

This Neutral Environment light set would be a good addition, even if you have other light sets. It's got three clickable options- Bright, Brighter, Brightest which makes it easy (I still tweak the Exposure Value in Tonemapping, but this is SO easy) and I LOVE the rotating dome. Click, done. There's many different angles. What I will show you is ONE light, just moving the dome with a click. Enjoy!

Click each one then click back and forth between the windows, you'll see the lighting changes more easily. This is light 12, the first was dome 225, then 45, then 135  (If you post renders here, please remember images in this thread should ALWAYS open in new windows.)

Full length rendering now. It's a fun outfit, and I like the hair, was easy to move off the chest. Didn't play around with it much. I like the tousled strands.

Kleine WArnung am Rande - das funktioniert hier nur mit dem Gesicht. Wenn Du versuchts, die Maps des alten Manns auch bei den anderen Körperteilen anzuwenden, gibt es häßliche Lücken.

@BeeMKay
Das gebietet die Logik, da eine Frau bei gleichen Proportionen mehr Hautoberfläche haben muss.
Der Grund dafür befindet sich zwischen Hals und Bauchnabel, und ist meiner Ansicht nach besonders bei jüngeren Frauen hübsch anzusehen.

Aber auf jeden Fall danke für die Anleitung. Hätte ich die Jüngere Version der Dame machen wollen,

wäre Keri https://www.daz3d.com/keri-for-victoria-8 wohl auch kein so guter Startingpoint gewesen.

Gruss

If I wanted to make my Victoria 4 figure smile, how would I make this happen?

First off, I know this is probably a long shot, as the creator of the plugin has since passed away. But to anyone who might have an idea...

I'm working with the 4.10 beta currently. Most everything works well insofar as plugins go. But GenX2 is not. The tool window shows up as normal, but I am unable to click on any buttons to load a figure into the plug in, or drag/drop ones (such as Victoria 3 or Michael 4). I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling the plugin and its add-ons several times, and changing the destination folder to the new/beta location on my H/D. It still won't work. I have also restarted/disabled the plug in, to no avail.

I'm running a 2015 iMac, 32GB RAM, and a AMD Radeon M380 Graphics card.

 

Although it's a splendid image, I'm sure it'd be so much better if the clothing could be made dynamic, within the daz, without resorting to external software

I hate to be realist but I suspect if there is dynamic clothing it will be used to give Victoria 9 long flowing knickers. If there are any dynamic outfits made they will likely have fits for Victoria because that is what the store revolves around.

You are setting Victoria 4 as the original figure in the AutoFit dialogue?

I believe so. That what I did with the other Lotus items and they fit just fine. In fact selecting victoria 4 is what causes them to fit between the feet.

 

 

The problem is that those shoes are not made for the default pose, there's a "high heels" pose for V4 included with the set. So it can't fit the default pose on G2F, you will need to adjust the feet too.

So if I load up victoria 4 and copy that pose onto genesis 2. It might fit proper?

Probably not as the shoes will bend with the feet, maintaining their incorrect relationship. You would most likely need to edit the rigging to stop the foot bones from influencing the shoes (or you could just load two copies of the shoes, hide one foot of each, and parent one to each shin of the Genesis 2 Female figure, then pose the feet in the shoes).

I found setting the fit to victoria 4 skirts make them fit onto the feet but the toes stick out. Is there any way to scale the individial toes of genesis 2 so they hide inside the heels?

For Genesis 3 and 8 you can get Fantasy-Ears. They work great. You can make different Animal, and Elfen ears. And you can mix them. Your also can adjust them with the normal Ear-Controllers, and you get a lot more Ear-Controllers with these pagages. Download G3 and/or G8 the Basic-Figures are free. And an Update from Victoria an Michael 4 to 8 you will not regret. Believe me.

I’m surprised really because the store really doesn’t have any good and realistic pies for sale.... I wonder if one will hit the market soon and they didn’t want to sell a competing product...

and yes technically Victoria 8 can wear the pie. My preference would be in the face though,

I'm having trouble fitting the Lotus Shoes https://www.daz3d.com/lotusgown-accessories to Genesis 2 Female. I have Victoria 4 for Genisis 2

But every time I try fitting the shoes to Genesis 2. Then end up fitting between the feet instead of going directly on them. 
Is there any way I can get them to fit properly?

I'm looking for some long fingerless gloves that would go well with this dress. I'm not going for the add on as it's not what I'm looking for.

https://www.daz3d.com/lotusgown-base-for-v4-and-a4

Preferably for Genesis 2 or Victoria 4.

I'm trying to import my Victoria 4 and Michael 4 into Unity 5.6f1 engine. Can anyone help me? I'm using Daz 3.1 characters. My system is Windows 10. 64 Bit.

@eagle99

Danke erstmal für den Tip mit den Ohren.

Weiter gehts im Elfenland:

So Leute, ich darf mal vorstellen: Das ist Emerelle. Mein derzeitiges Projekt. Alles in allem finde ich sie eigentlich ganz brauchbar aber leider kommt sie der Fotovorlage noch nicht so recht nahe wie ich das eigentlich haben will. Und das liegt nicht nur an den Ohren. Mein Problem ist, dass ich nicht wirklich sehe woran es liegt. Irgend etwas stimmt noch nicht. Ausserdem hab ich noch nicht raus, wie man mit DS die altersbedingten Details hinbekommt. Die sind aber auch nicht das Problem. Denn Emerelle hier, sieht nicht einfach nur aus wie eine Jüngere Version von der Dame auf dem Foto. Bis Emerelle wirklich soweit ist, wird wohl noch einige Zeit ins Land gehen. 

Wenn euch irgend was auffällt wo ihr sofort sagt: „Ja klar, da muss du dieses oder jenes ändern“ dann immer raus damit.
Die Grundfigur ist Victoria 8 mit Keri als Character. 
Ich habe allerhand Änderungen unter Zuhilfenahme von „200 Headmorphs für G8“ und den „EJ Fantasy-Ears“ gemacht.

Gruss
Jan
