     Here you go @ColinFrench

    The Amity character looks great.

    If somebody could do a comparison head shot of Amity with and without Honni dialed in, it would be much appreciated.

    Not to disparage anyone else's opinion because all are valid but, for me, this was a great deal. I love Western and Steampunk themes. I especially love going back to items I pass in the Gen 4 figures for lack of time, funds or whatever and picking those up for peanuts. I am at heart a collector and make a legitimate effort at least to produce a render with each and every purpose. I fail miserably at that, but it is what I aspire to do so the colleting remains or interest to me.

    For me, the characters in a bundle are often tertiary to the other stuff the bundle that I'm interested in more, those being outfits and hairstyles.  Also, bundles are the main way that I end up with pose packs.  I almost never buy pose packs as standalones, but will often end up acquiring them through bundles, or via 'buy this bundle and get x amount from this pose category for free'.  I can do my own posing, and this strategy (poses acquired via bundles and as 'bonus items' for sales) has ended up filling in my pose library anyways...

    I can always use more hairstyles, and while outfits are often just variations of outfits I already have, occasionally the outfits being offered are sufficiently interesting to me.  High Heels are often a check in the negative column here, while low heels are a check in the positive column for me when considering items, but no sense rehashing that here.  Even with not seeking out high heeled outfits, I nonetheless still have a plethora of high heels in my library, mainly due to the occasional killer sale and pro bundle sales.

    Occasionally, though, yeah the core character will be the main reason I buy the bundle, The Aikos, Sakura 8, Dain 8 and Dasan 8 come immediately to mind.

    I do also appreciate it when a character is being offered in both Genesis 3 and 8 versions, and this applies to clothing and hair as well.  This was definitely a selling point r.e. Celani 8 for me.

    Once in a blue moon, someone decides to offer Genesis, Genesis 2, Genesis 3 AMD Genesis 8 versions of stuff in the same product.  That almost never happens, but I've seen it once or twice recently... Sometimes I like to go back to Genesis 2 due to the 'look' of that period of Daz characters, when I want to change up things a bit.

  • huh Daz Giveth and daz Takeith away had a purple banner with extra 20% off and got itin my messages but after going to check out entering code says the "SWEET-SAVINGS-20" is not valid and my purple banner is now gone, still at moment in messages, maybe because just been saying about latest buys last few days been glitchy being punished oh I didn't really want her that badly anyways as they say always another sale and maybe something I want more

    You can get the banner from the Messages page in your account, or the Messages entry in the menu that opens when you click the person icon at top-right.

    Odd, I've purchased a lot of Gen 8 Pro Bundles, including all but Scar for the last 6, and I've got no banner and no message. I guess I still don't spend enough for Daz's liking lol

    Edit: Also, Richard, @ANGELREAPER1972 was more concerned that the actual banner discount wasn't applying than the banner disappeared. So it seems that there is something wonky overall with the banner this time around - some not getting it as expected, and some who get it but the discount isn't working.

    I'll wait to see the dust settle on this sale rollout to see if this gets straightened out.

    Edit #2: well on a whim I tried the banner code and it's working for me, but I still have no banner and no message in my account. Strangeness indeed!

    I've been fascinated with the idea of doing wild west art for over 20 years. I've been really terrible at it. This pro set provides clothes, guns, poses, etc.. that all fit together. Heck we even have hair that fits under hats! Now all we need is a Wild West town to go with it all. Or did I miss that?!

    I have one render of Honni 8 to offer in the Everyday Cowgirl Outfit. I had a choice, give up the hat or the hair, the hat lost. I didn't want to track down a 'hat squasher' tool. That is her default skin translucency, no makeup, eyes as they load. I modified Those_Things ASP Pose 22 to accomodate the gun and a bit smaller chair. The building is from The Streets of The Wild West #17.

    Pricey, but very, very good.

    There are also a lot of old west vignettes in PC+ for around $1.99, all of them worth a look.

    Or this, which I don't have so don't know how good it is:

    One of her eyes is looking at me.  The other one, not so much.

    Western theme is good, and I'm glad it included a Sci Fi outfit. I didn't have Vernae Fae, so that's all good for me. Got my purple banner, and the price was about what I expected.

    I have so many dForce outfits I'm not going to use, I'd rather have props like the Western guns.

    I'm 2x thinking that Holt 8 is a Western-themed dude after Honni 8.

    Banner? Wonder if that is glitchy, I see no banner and I normally get one...

    I got 20% off for owning too many Genesis 8 pro bundles (LOL).

    We all know that the banners have been kind of glitchy lately, though.

    Yeah, I have bought a shload of pro bundles recently and no banner. So hopefully it is just a glitch...

     

    Me too. I have most of the bundles and no banner

     

    Pity, because I like the character & SteamPunk theme, but a banner would help the price

    Yeah, I like getting things that I might use in the future to increase my options, and some of that stuff I could use, and I like the one hair a lot, I probably would have already bought it if I had got a banner. I guess that if you skip a couple of them they stop giving you banners, The last bundle I bought was Scar, and I was really hoping for a female in the same vein, but I guess they didn't make one, which sucks, because I likely would have bought that one in a heartbeat. I almost bought the aliens vs trooper thing, but that was a bit pricy for me so I passed on it after passing on the wrestling stuff and well basically everything since Scar. (When you are hoping something will be released and want to keep cash back for it you tend to pass on things a bit more.)

    Funny thing is I bought the last few, I have only missed one of the last few.

    Glitchy sales experience for me.  Tried to put together some test carts.  My cart changes prices, the PC discount applied, then it didn't.  The add on discounts applied, then didn't, then did. Makes me nervous.

    I appreciate the folks posting renders.  Thank you.

    Substantively, I like many of the items that have a Western theme.  I blew this month's Daz budget on Joe Quick.  Undecided.

    Thanks very much for a quick response. To me, Amity definitely looks better with Honni dialed in. Hmmm, decisions, decisions.

    DMax, thanks! Wow!

    @RonKnights it's pricey but nice and can be had for below $10 during a big sale.

    Yes, thank you.  She's a lot more girl-next-door without Honni.  Honni does give her the Emyrs eyes and cheekbones.  There are other base characters you can dial in, though.  Which is what I'll be doing.

    DMax, I already spent all my available "mad money" this month. But I really appreciate the information.

    Yeah I have it, but I was in a 'mood' and not ready to stress myself or my computer more. I did this on my desktop that crashes if I look at it funny. And I am stealing time away from a project to play with her. 

    But, I like her. She has a strong face that can be pretty, classy, elegant, whatever you need. I really want to see what Divamakeup does with her, as she is an artist.

    Really makes me wonder what the hell is going on then, that they give it to some, but not others who normally get it since they are potentially costing themselves sales.

    Remember the sales that will be coming in the next four months. I expect you will be able to get this bundle for a great deal, if not free during one of them, if past experience holds true.

    Generic "Adventure Girl"... it's been done better before - and recently - with Angharad and Sahira. I have no interest in her whatsoever... and that's fine!

    DAZ had really been nailing it with the core figures lately... so many characters that I'm thirsty for (Kwan, Kayo, Scar) or at least intrigued by (Celani, Ashan, Angharad, Valentino, Alawa...) It's oddly refreshing to get a core figure I can pass up without a second thought :) my wishlist was starting to feel a little bloated!

    Cheers to all that like Honni! :)

    @The Blurst of Times "Honni 8 is dififcult to deal with right now because she's in Lost and Found. Her files are not set up properly, so nothing appears under "Figure", "Materials", "

    Maybe in "Smart Content", but Honni's resources are in the right place in the Content Library.

    Great character but the bundle is a horrible deal. It should be priced at $9.99. I already own the one outfit. Three of the products are poses, they should be combined into a single product. I really like the outfits shown in the promos but they are not in the bundle. The two other outfits I don't own are not very interesting. It's very misleading to use promo images with products not in the bundle. Break it down and it's just not worth it.

    I priced it out, with the $30 store credit it comes out to $27 using the purple banner and add-on discounts. I really could use the Cowgirl outfit, I need a western outfit that's Rated G. But the bundle overall... 3 sets of unwanted poses, the Ruthless character looking like an old Genesis 1 hack, and I already own the one outfit. Then the character with the scar, a good, legitimate character but it doesn't go with this bundle. Do I just get the Cowgirl outfit for $18 or get it all for $27? It would have been worthwhile with another outfit and steampunk item. Even for $27, is it worth it?

  • SnowSultanSnowSultan Posts: 3,648

    mwokee, your price in cart was $57, correct? Just wanted to check, I've had a few different totals come up since last night.
