Has anyone purchased Gou Luk that can post a render or two? I find it hard to see from the promos what the skin looks like.

    I think she's quite cute - love all the great stuff we get in the bundle and it's well organized. A little disappointed the sports wear wasn't included :)

    Here's a quick render of her in the clothes that come with the bundle and her hair.

    EDIT: fixed image.

    It's definitely a bit of a clumsy presentation... it took me a while to figure out that the twisted fox outfit wasn't included, even though there's a whole page that seems to be dedicated to it.  But I've bought everything by Rrarestone except that one fairy outfit, so it's in the cart...

    Thank you - I appreciate the render. Did you happen to stop the render early or not let it "bake" long? I'm seeing a lot of graininess around the face and neck, or does she just render that way? Every render I've seen of this character is either blurry or grainy and I'm curious as to if there's something about her settings that make it hard on people's computers so that the renders are all either grainy, blurry, or overly-processed looking -or if that was mainly a "stylized choice" made for the promo images.

    So "Sports Wears Twisted Fox" and "Survival Outfits" from the promos aren't included, correct? Or the shoes and top from "Survival Outfits" IS included but not the shorts and the straps? 

    I see 4 different bags in the promos, which one is the "Petite Traveler Bag" that is listed?

    Yeah, it's not really clear about what is and isn't included. Also it would be super nice to actually be able to see the character's skin and how it looks in a normal render. I don't see one single "straight render" of the character that isn't overly processed, grainy, or blurry. I don't want to sound like Negative Nelly, but I would like to see at least one straight render without all the post-processing so that I can actually see the product. Of course, artistic renders are great and always nice to see, but I think at least ONE straight render where the product is clear should be included, I would think - particularly products where one might actually want to see what the textures really look like in a regular render. I'm seeing more and more products in the store with heavy denoiser and/or post-processing and it's getting harder and harder to tell what the normal textures actually look like.

    I still can't work out what's included with the character. 

    These are the accessories listed with it:

    • RN Angels Of War
    • RN Bullet 01
    • RN Bullet 02
    • RN Eyes Pearls Decorations
    • RN Nose Ring
    • RN the Iron Maiden
    • RN the Iron
    • RN the Jail
    • RN the Slayer
    • RN Wheels Of Fate

    What are they???? Are they all jewellery - it has "nose ring" which is obviously jewellery, but I can't match up any of the other names with the promos. Are they the accessories included in the "survival outfits" promo? Or are they ALL jewellery?

    I did buy it btw LOL, but it's 4 files and they are massively huge so will take a bit to download.

    Yeah the way it's presented in the promos, I thought it might be included. I Googled the name of them thinking maybe they'd be from another site, but no luck. As for the render, it was most likely my fault since I didn't fully bake this one. I'll try to post something tomorrow :)

    Yeah, I really want to buy the product as the character looks pretty cute and I've enjoyed the couple other products that I have from this PA, but at the same time, it's hard to purchase something if you can't really tell what it really looks like nor tell what's all included.

  • jakibluejakiblue Posts: 7,281

    I'm installing all 4 files now. I'll put up some shots of the included accessories and clothing. And do a basic out of the box render of the character also.

    I just posted an image of Gou Luk in my Daz gallery. I noticed a problem with her texture(s). You can clearly see a seam on her left leg below her bikini strings.

    The promos in this product are unusually bad. They are noisy and low resolution. Look at that one with the lipstick. The description is vague and confusing. No wonder you can't even tell what you would get if you bought this. I already have Pei, and she looks the same. I'll pass for now.

  • jakibluejakiblue Posts: 7,281

    This is the included accessories. All jewellery. So the props in the "Survival Outfits" promo are NOT included (thigh and arm straps, glasses, guns, holsters or even the shorts).

    I also had a few issues with this character. Don't get me wrong, she's very nice and has a ton of stuff and options with her, but a few of them are unusable. She comes with three set of eyelashes, two of which don't load in the right spots, and her tattoos are a bit....off. I think some of the maps load wrong, like, half of them on her front and half of them on her back. Also, her backpack.... when I load it it's paranted to her back, but the straps hang pendant, as in they aren't around her arms.

    Sorry for the attachment spam, but here's some pictures to show what I mean. The first pic is her eyelashes that work, but...she loads in with default gen 8 lashes that also don't work... T_T

    I also didn't show all the tattoos that are broken, there's a few, but there are also a fair few that are fine.

    I think that if you're going to include stuff in promo pictures that isn't in the package then you are obliged to note them and the place to buy them in a footer in the sales page

    There's often an excuse that promo picture makers can't remember what items are included in pictures, but that is a poor excuse at best.

    If you are making promo pictures or any pictures you think may be used in future promotion then is is a professional duty to note at the time of rendering what items are included.

    This item was already in my cart for purchase at some time in the next few days,

    but seeing the various problems I think I will wait until I read that they are all corrected

    It looks like the QA dept was on holiday the day this passed through, because it's impossible to believe these errors could be missed.

    I'm sure DAZ will fix some of the problems quite quickly, but when I buy something I like to use it immediatly and not wait a month for the updates.

    Has anybody found where the twisted fox sports wear and survival outfits can be purchased ?

    I suspect that they are both future Rarestone releases, but that should still have been mentioned at the foot of the sales page.

    Here is an idea for DAZ, that when you save your final rendered image to disk that an additional text file is also saved which includes a list of every item in the scene, thus saving the user the hard work of having to note things down as they build the scene.

    Oh, I noticed part of some of the Dark Blooms tattoos on one of the renders, didn't know it included so many other tattoos as well. Are they LIE and usable on other characters, or baked into alternative skin textures?

    I like the things I see in the promoshots. I think I also like most of what's included in the bundle. The problem is, those two are totally different things.

    I actually purchased this one two quick, I thought the twisted fox gear was included which was my main reason for the purchase.  Oh well, still a lot of stuff, just not the stuff i wanted

    I encountered the same issues others havepreviously pointed out. Note the very apparent seam on the left shoulder. Nicevalue for everything you get. Hope the minor issues get sorted.

    Strange that the left shoulder seam doesn't show up in my render. Must be associated with the lighting.

    I feel like a perv rendering young looking characters that usually sexualized. So I dont buy them.
  • Is the Twisted Fox sportswear available in the store?

    Maybe the twisted fox stuff will appear later in the store.

    Thanks to everyone who posted what's actually included! But what is Mori and Harajaku makeups?  Thanks.

    Harajuku is a district of Tokyo that is well known for fashion. Mori literally means “forest”, and mori kei (“forest style”) is another type of Japanese fashion.
