Wet and Tanned Skins For Genesis 3 is a complete solution for rendering many skin tones, from pale to tanned and many wet looks, from dry to very wet. Well the title could have been "Vary from dry to wet and from pale or tanned the skins for Genesis 3, but it was obviously too long). Of course it is compatible with males and females.

This relies on a new shader made in shader mixer especially developped to reach a wide range of tone thanks to additional Hue, Saturation and Lightness controls, and allowing the possibility to include tan lines.

To make is simple and efficient, it works as "materials", meaning that you select the figure and double click a preset or a tool, and all skin / lips / nails will be treated all together. For users of Genitalia, you will find a script which will transfert the skins properties to the Genitalia surfaces.

As usually it has been developped to make everybody happy : tons (TONS!!!) of presets (skin tans / skins wet looks) for the beginners or advanced users in a hurry, and smart managers (tune skin yourself) documented within the manager scripts and in a pdf documentation for advanced users and professionals. Concerning the skin tan/ tones, there are 17 "families" of skin tones with, in each family, 9 tan levels (varying progressively from no tan to strong tan), with 2 suboptions for all presets (more or less brown skin).

Tan lines is an Addon for wet and tanned skins which is available separately. This is a collection of tan line patterns (from very very small bikinis to monokinis, shorts, tee shirts). The tan lines strength (visibility) can be controlled with a single dial from the surfaces editor tab, or using a dedicated interface. For now the tan lines are provided for Genesis 3 Base female UV sets, and Victoria 7 UV sets. You can try on other Genesis 3 females : depending on the tan line type and the figure you try, it may work pretty well.

I decided to link these two different products in a single topic, as well as in a bundle, the "So Wet! Bundle For Genesis 3", which will include Wet and Tanned Skins For Genesis 3, Tan Lines For Genesis 3 Base Female and Victoria 7, and Drips and Drops For Genesis 3 Female(s). I'll make a different post for Drips and Drops.

The idea behind all that is to have the "full package" for summer or action scenes, or even sports scenes : The shader (from pale to tanned from dry to wet presets), the tan lines, and the additional drops running on the body.

Of course, feel free to use this topic for questions, worries, comments, feedback and render sharing

well, that all looks very usefull and I would buy all these products, unfortunatelly I do not render in Iray, so no match for me, sorry.

I understand. I was considering making an "Amazing Skins For Genesis 3" which allows to make tanned skins for 3Delight (amongst other things) but I'm really hesitating because it is not clear at all if many people still use 3Delight.

I don't have hard numbers, but there is a very vocal group of folks here on the forums that are complaining loudly about a lack of 3Delight shaders for some newer content, so maybe it would be worthwhile.

Also, thanks for a nice product; I just have to figure out how to use it all.

Victoria needs also Carrara 9...

I wanted to make a very short break  during my film in progress and I made this, only for pleasure, not to participate.
I don't know how I will make a choice in this bunch of impressive entries !

Somebody asked on page 1 whether you could apply the gen 4 skins to genesis 1.  Answer is yes, as long as you have the generation 4 UV sets for Genesis.  Load the updated skins, change UV set to Michael4/Victoria 4, and you're all set...

Thanks a lot for mentionning this. I try my best to follow everything around my products but sometimes I don't see everything! Thanks again!

Thanks for the 'history' lessons. I often wondered if there was a Stephanie 3 (non-petite) and it sounds like, "no". It sounds like Stephanie Petite 3 was a unique character that didn't fit to Victoria 1 or Victoria 3 but may have been built on the Stephanie 1 mesh as Vicky 3 came out.

More importantly it also sounds like I have the right character pack and I don't need the upgrade, which means Dazbucks for another artist's product. Wahoo.

(It also looks like Daz has their bundles reversed in their advertising).

The Pro version is 64 bit, you definitely want the pro version and not standard (but ironically with platinum club Pro is less expensive anyway).  Join Platinum club once to buy Carrara and drop it if you like after you own Carrara.  Although if you don't already own a lot of content, the platinum club is pretty great at getting you discounts of other stuff from the store.

Genesis3 is the 'latest and greatest' yes, but not particularly superior, depending on your needs.  I personally think Genesis1 is the best overall, and Genesis2 is pretty good too (so is Victoria/Michael 4, which is older content but still perfectly good).  Genesis3 is the most recent, so all the stuff for it is more expensive, but that's not much of a plus  :)  earlier generations have more content anyway, and if some clothng item for Genesis 3 strikes your fancy you can always get a clone to transform the clothing into Genesis 1/2 clothing instead, and use it with those figures as well.

The upgrade is for owners of the 1st, older, Stephaniel, they don't pay the 'full price'. 

Stephanie is from the same 'generation' as Victoria (or Victoria 1) etc, so as such it could be referred to as SP1

beaten by chohole, should have guessed.....

So... When I said they weren't finished with Genesis 3 Figures, I thought about that and pull out a list of all of the Figures from Genesis 2 and Genesis 3; then I made a table ... and one thing lead to another.
So here is an Unoffical table of the Daz 3D Character's, there fore-family (If this works it will be so cool).

It also shows the posibilities for Genesis 3 figures.

Those in Red Never got out of the door or may have been replaced.
Did Hiro gene pool spawn Kenji 7? Is Gianni 6 and 7 the taking over for The Freak? Or is that Ivan? (He look a little scary to me.)
Josie came out before Michael, so is the Jayden on the bench some place or is Josie odd girl out, like Aiko 6 was with no Hiro 6?
Will David the Odd Take the stage or was he replaced by Leo or Scott. (He is the Odd because he only is release every odd generation)
And where is Victoria's little sister, Stephanie? Surely she wasn't sent to the Gallows?
Will we see other G2F/M figures Mature into Genesis 3 figures? only the Daz 3D Mastermind Knows?

Pretty much. I have my own list that I've been keeping track of, albeit a more simplified version of it:
https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B_7-dyE9mH-Dd0FBZW5INFRxanM
But yeah, DAZ and PAs have pretty much confirmed that characters like David, Freak, and Hiro are done-with. Kenji is the spiritual successor to Hiro as characters like Gianni and Ivan are to Freak (with Gia and Rune doing the same for She Freak in that respect). I've actually very recently inquired DAZ_Steve about a Stephanie 7 and a David successor (which hasn't gotten a reply, no surprise). Either way, I'm quite confident that such is very well in the queue as Stephanie has yet to miss a Generation, and with this awesome trend of "Early-Month Female, Later-Month Male Counterpart" that's been going on, it's highly likely that she will indeed come with a David replacement. Though, if you look at the FBMs of some of the newer female stuff, there seems to be a "Sunny 7" coming soon, so a Stephanie 7/"David Successor" 7 might not happen until the end of this year or next.

...that' sad as again I prefer David and Steph over Mike and Vicky. I feel that thier proportions and physiques are better. Vicky is the leggy runway fashion model while Steph is more like the girl I'd see walking down the street.  Mike is more the "hunk" while David is more like the "average guy".   Like usual  if they do come out, they will most likely be followed in short order by the next incarnation of  the Genesis figure, so once again will get minimal support. because of the "new shiny".

I belive the new Cathy is intended to resemble Arianna Grande

Hello 

made a quick and dirty test: Cookie's Pringdew panty and top converted to V4 with XD4 and then autofit to G3F/Star and finally posed

Oh that's cute! :D Looks like there is a tiny bit of poke-through but I bet that's fairly easy to fix. Thank you, smaker1! :)

I'm going to look into getting that Cross Dresser thing. I think V4 might be the way to go - as I have clones for her that basically means that if something fits on V4 I can get it to fit just about ANY figure that I have, including G2F and G3F. I noticed that V4 had two different purchase options - one that just says "Victoria 4" the other says "Victoria 4 Weight Mapped". What is the difference and which one should I be getting to use with V4.2?

Quick and dirty test!  so I didn't took the time the manage the little poke-through, 

As Fixmypcmike said: I used the V4, the V4 weigtmapped is for Poser. I also used the standard conversion by XD4. There are certainly options to get a better result. 

 

Sweet, thank you. I definitely plan on getting that once I get some more money coming in. I wish it was available though the Daz store (that way I could score it on sale lol). :) Thank you for the help, smaker1! Seeing that it's possible makes me pretty excited! :D

Outfit in question for finley , it is so beautiful *_*
I've been searching the shop for hours now, still couldn't find  it ._.
I hope u guys can help me, thx!

Hi Richard,

Thanks a lot for your fast reply. I'm still a bit confused, how this all works together.

When I look at My Library > data > DAZ 3D > Genesis 3 > Female, I find the subdirectories
- Morphs (contains DAZ 3D with subdirectories, e.g. Base/Base Correctives, but also morphs for Olympia 7 and Victoria 7. I didn't expect theses there)
- Projection Morphs (for Olympia 7 and Victoria 7. What are porjection morphs for?)

I also find the file Genesis3Female.dsf there.

It's very confusing for me, how this all fits together and how Daz Studio knows, where to look for these files. Is Genesis 3 Female.duf the starting point for this (located in My Library > People > Genesis 3 Female). At least I found a reference in the "scene:nodes" to this file to Genesis3Female.dsf. So I have to go through all the files to find out, how they are connected and the load order. Am I on the right track?

Thanks for answering all this questions in advance :)

Nice, thanks .

You're welcome.

But something seems a litle off in the description:

zaz777 said:

...

• A3 to V6 and V6

...

... should one of those "V" 's eventually be an "A" or "M" ??

Maybe, .

I stuck with rsg's naming convention.  I assume that A3 stands for Aiko (the original I believe) from the 3rd generation.  Aiko/A3 was quite popular with many people, although I wasn't messing around with DAZ models at that time.

For generation 4 or later, rsg named everything based on the generation of Victoria and Michael.  That's why there aren't any G3F, G2F or G2M scripts as they are named V7, V6 and M6.  I'm not sure why rsg used what appears to be the Aiko label for generation 3 and just assume that rsg is either a fan of Aiko, thought that Aiko was more popular than Victoria 3 or only had Aiko available for the 3rd generation.

I did a quick stab at using the FixPoseGenerator.dsa script to create Victoria3 (V3) to G2F and G3F scripts and found them to be a little off because I didn't spend enough time matching up the bone orientations for the script to work as well as it can.

I then tried using the A3 scripts provided by rsg and they worked better than my one poor attempt at making V3 Fix Pose scripts.  In fact, in the few number of cases I tried, I felt the A3 to G2F and G3F scripts were close enough to work with for converting both poses and animations for the few Victoria 3 samples I have, so I stopped working on making V3 specific scripts.

If one needed more precise pose and animation conversion from V3 to G2F and G3F, one could use the FixPoseGenerator.dsa script to make V3 scripts.  I'm not sure it is worth it as pose and animation conversion is very rarely 100%.  I was pretty happy with the V3 converted poses and animations as the results were very useable with a few quick fixes, so I didn't put any more time into making "better" V3 Fix Pose scripts for my own use.

Any character made for a seven series product (Victoria 7 for example) will work in Genesis 3, even if you don't own the specific 7 series character; you just won't get the shape that the specific character adds.

Clothing is the same, although some tweakage may be required depending on the pose.

Poses will also work, even those specified for a 7 series character; sometimes slight adjustments might be required, although they are usually minor.

Anything prior to Genesis 3 will require work and often additional products to get it working with Genesis 3; poses will have issues, even after converting via one of the products. Clothes may or may not work, shoes and gloves - it is best to presume they wont work, although flat shoes can work to some extent.
