trying to identify an old figure/prop (solved - I think)

Forever trying to organize all of my stuff into categories I can find and use again later, I have a few items in an old 'morphing clothing' folder for v4 that I can't remember what they came with ... any help renaming these as the original product name would be most appreciated.

    From the sounds of this reply, these might be items from an old Platinum Club Freebie that may no longer be available (Pharaoh's Fantasy).

    Looks like a PC freebie from many years ago, I don't think it is even still available.

    It was called Pharaohs fantasy and consisted of a hook, a whip and a braclet as you have pictured. I believe the braclets are fitted to V4.

    I could be wrong, but they make ne think they are something from the old Zygote days...maybe it's just the style and look of the png.

    But even if a freebie, wouldn't it be in my product library just in case I even need to re-download it?

    The version I have is not in my library. I recall when I joined the PC club many years ago there was a link to a bunch of legacy zip files of previous freebies and I downloaded these. I don't think they were given SKUs and placed in the product library, but I am not sure.

    Okey-dokey ... well ... at least I have a name for the folder now. Thanks, guys. :)

    The Crook and Flail were added to Children of Aten product in a separate file called "Pharaoh's Fantasy for V4" a few years ago when the set was updated to DSON. The bracelets are the same as those in V4 Fantasy Collar Set.

    Children of Aten is just a texture add on for this set: https://www.daz3d.com/pharaohs-of-the-sun-for-v4

    I see no mention of the hook and flail in either product description or promo shots

    What can I say, that's where they ended up.

    Edit: There was a note somewhere in the Platinum Club Freebies Redux (or something like that) thread about it, IIRC. (I am still locked out of the PC+ forums...)

    Interesting, strange there is no mention on the product page, seems like they were just tacked onto another product.

  • NorthOf45NorthOf45 Posts: 5,541

    Product pages rarely get updated, especially that many years later. There might be a note on the ReadMe page, whenever we see them again.

    I have both of those sets, too ... thanks for the help guys. I'll put it all together so I don't lose track of it again.

    I don't know if it's correct but I read somewhere on the Forums that Zygote was the company that originally owned Daz 3d.

    Yes Daz 3D split off from Zygote.

    Zygote is where it all began.  Before their was Daz Or Daz Studio, it was a 3d model shop where the figures could be obtained to use in Poser...

    A company making 3D assets, some of which were licensed to software publishers (Lightwave, I think, had a Zygote himan and Poser of course used Zygote figures) and soem sold directly to end-users. The Poser division was split off to become Daz.
