    Since there are no bundles for pirate prey, ie normal merchant shipmen (or women), or the naval forces that hunts the pirates, I do wonder who all these pirates are supposed to raid and fight?

    Ninjas.

    I like her a lot, but honestly the pirate thing is just overdone at the store. 

    I'd take pirates over "Famous for doing nothing" any day cheeky

    Maybe NVWAS?

    I think she's quite nicely done as well but the whole bundle is just a very slight variation thematically repeated a few times already recently. Seems there needs to be a better filling out of other products needed for this theme as Havos mentioned.

    Does anyone know which hair this is, I don't see it in the bundle?

    Mehrloc Hair for Genesis 8 and 8.1 | Daz 3D

    It's close, but doesn't seem to have the centre parting

     

    Mehrloc is dreads, this seems to be a twist style.

  • Can the chest Belts of this outfit:  https://www.daz3d.com/dforce-rachell-high-seas-outfit-for-genesis-81-females be worn without the shoulder thing, the armor thing? I'm not a fan of that but I love that it's a dual holser, so rare, usually, even if the model in the promos carry two guns there are none or only one holster. Could totally work for a steampunk or pirate Lara Croft smileyheart. But only if the shoulder thing could be hidden somehow.

    This is a pretty cool promo image  for Jinx.

    She looks great! Reminds me slightly of Samira Wiley.

    I think her skin looks a little orange in some of the promos.

    Nope. I am pretty sure that that particular hair is a bit older and by someone else. May be over on Rerndo. Probably one of Samsil's, but there might be similar ones by other artists. 

    ETA: Actually, I'm wondering if we've got a kitbash here. Samsil's Sengaleese twist definitely seems to be the braids, but there is no scalp showing. I think the hair cap for another set may be underneath it.

    How to turn off her freckles? Please @xyer0 so I'll (maybe) get notified.

    Can't turn them off: They're on the diffuse. Why not make them an option instead?

    That's why I'll likely just wishlist her and wait until sale

    What about Jinx Jones superhero? Jinx jones private eye? Jinx Jones, naturalist? Jinx Jones attorney? Jinx Jones doctor or educator? I need more variety.

    Yup, love the hair and renders and simulates well when I stop it before 90% (but could be just my PC). Looks like they've got a few items by Samsil in the promos. More of Samsil's stuff can be found at the Samsil's site sdebstore.com (really great for natural African/Black hairstyles)

    She's what I was expecting Coral to look like in being Zale's female counterpart.

    They pulled the ol' switcheroo on you, and she's Wolfgang's counterpart instead.

    I'm on the fence about this one. The lowest I can get the megabundle with 3 addons (that I don't care much about) is $72.07 total cart price. A little steep for my budget. Plus there isn't much in the freebies that I'm particularly interested in.

    Yup. Interracial is Woke-kandan, paradoxically.

    I suppose I'm in the minority, but my first thougtht was; do we really need more pirates? 

    Considering my first thought was "MORE. FREAKIN. PIRATES?", no, you are not alone.   ;) 

  • benniewoodellbenniewoodell Posts: 1,986

    Yeah, I'm not a huge pirate guy at all, but I do like this character a lot and the stuff from Cynder Blue and Val3Dart. Will I use all the outfits as is? Probably not, but looking at it all, I could probably kitbash everything into stuff I could use more often than once or twice. And the hair is nice, and getting two extra characters is welcomed as well. Do I care about getting Daz Legacy or G2 stuff for free, or even G3 for that matter? Not one bit, but I feel like I'm getting more for free than I'd pay for everything individually so I'll probably snag this before the day is through.

    question to the people who bought the corsican raiser outfit

    https://www.daz3d.com/dforce-corsican-raider-outfit-for-genesis-8-and-81-females

    This  looks very nice and detailed but can you take a look the the frills on the collar? there seems to be a constant shadow which looks like it's baked in the texture

    could you make a render showing it's there or not with the right light or something?

    it seems to be geometry so maybe if the shadow is baked in changeing the shder of the frills might help

    thanks!

    @Linwelly I tried every material and used mesh grabber to try to move the frill on the left up. I then added a point light to highlight that area better but not sure. It is odd. But then I looked at the tie-thingy that hold the ties of the frill top together and caps the ends and the pieces seem to be yellow plastic. It looks wrong and I expect I will bring out my shader sets. 

    The pieces of the outfit are very versatile and could be used for a number of genres. And I found the scarfs, skirts and stripes can be disappeared with cutout opacity. I love the pants, boots, crop top, frill top, and jacket.

  • Good heavens the character is GORGEOUS WOW!

    I can't add any more characters and morphs, sadly.  Had to remove some just to get any to load and pose.  Ha ha, I must be a packrat  (or the characters are that good!)

    Maybe when I build another rig!

    But the 8.1s are so well done, 

  • BamboozlerBamboozler Posts: 249

    The character herself looks nice. I like a couple of the hairs. But the bundle..hoo, boy.

    I did get the Coral megabundle but I only got the 10% banner. I have tons of pirate stuff and really don't need more, and even if I did, the clothes in this bundle just aren't at the same level as many other pirate items already out there.

    Pirates and Ancient Egyptians are way overdone lately. For the record, I also don't need any bathrooms, bus stops, modern living rooms, or sci-fi hallways. ;)

  • DripDrip Posts: 1,206

    I really like the character, and though I don't do much medieval rendering, I do generally like it. So pirate stuff often ends up on my wishlist for infinite time. This mega bundle on the other hand was a very fast decision: lots of Pirate stuff at a decent price given the total size of the package, made even better with all the other stuff I could grab as a bonus.Even Genesis 1 products have their uses in this age. Especially since I'm more into sci-fi, the lower poly-count on stuff from the Gen 1 period often means cleaner designs with less embellishment. And sometimes, less embellishment is just what I'm looking for.
