i dont understand the comment about the characters and backgrounds. and 99% of the gen 8 stuff i have works on gen 9. dazs auto-fit converts them very good right out of the box. so there is a huge library of stuff ive been using with gen 9 so far.
The new model could use more gloss on her lips to match the old model.
and i spent a deal of time today really playing around with her facial expressions trying to get good with the gen 9 sliders. its a total switch from what roman had with gen 3 so i cant replicate things exactly but im getting there. i also want to keep her as demure as possible.
i get ya but this game also has a new dev with a new vision. and this dev wants to use updated models AND pay tribute and respect the models as they were. and i like the models how they were but theyre dated and inconsistent.No hate, but i can't see how can it be better. (Unless it's was a disaster to start, but that's not true this case.) I already wrote this in an another game's thread:
I think the problem is that the dev had a idea of the characters, then he created 3d model what is not the 100% perfect copy of his idea. But the game came out so the players saw the characters, so to them the game version the real character. Now the dev makes a new model that closer to his ideal, it's an improvement for him, but the player only sees the difference from the original, which was the 100% version of the character in the player eyes.
TLDR Never change character mid game
ugh i know right!
no with gen9 its a bit more complicated than that. i believe at this point i would have to use lie masks. which is possible, but a lot of work.
The update ate my reply again... =/
I mean, it's not like I have been around much so would abandonment really feel all that different?
roman gave me the two computers he built for making the renders so the systems are good. and i didnt have to do it that way it was something i was trying to help roman with to save time on the art.The update ate my reply again... =/
I meant this...
IDK what kind of system you have, but if you have to do things like this to render, you are better off going back to gen3, not 9.
So far, I am not a fan of gen 9, other than being gender neutral, what I have seen looks bad, especially that new breast control thing, looks like a man with implants.
But, my feelings aside, it is almost never good to change the models in the middle of the game.
Either way, best of luck.
I use the Headlights add-on, so nipple shape was never a problem for me. lol
That's for the textures, it won't affect the game size.EIGHT KAY?!?! Do you want a 20+GB download with each release or something?
Well, she HAS been hanging out at the pool with the others more. lolOn Amanda, I think her skin is too tanned. Unless you are changing her personality/character type, she is a shy nerdy girl. And to me, shy nerdy girls don't go outside much to get tanned
Also, if you're going to upgrade the models, I think G8.1 would be a better choice. G9 just came out, so it doesn't have many assets yet.
I assume Roman already gave you converters, but there are plenty of them available here and on the Daz store.

no its not an 8k file. its an 8k normal map so that when it renders you can ultra high detail when youre up close to the skin. but that only matters to daz while its rendering. the file size of the final image will be a normal jpg file size.EIGHT KAY?!?! Do you want a 20+GB download with each release or something?
yeah but most of those converters sucked for romans characters and there was nothing to convert the surfaces satisfactorily (amandas nipples were on the underside of her breast lol).On Amanda, I think her skin is too tanned. Unless you are changing her personality/character type, she is a shy nerdy girl. And to me, shy nerdy girls don't go outside much to get tanned

Basically the IANVS is handing the game over to meepish. IANVs is staying on as writer but Meepish is in full control. There will be a reboot of the game with updated models and a slight change to the story. No game updates as of yet and probably wont be for a while. So check back in a bit.
