Why is this classed as a Genesis 9 Bundle? It isn't.

One of the items is G8 / 8.1 and not for 9.

It seems disingenuous at best to claim it is a G9 bundle.

Sorry, not buying anything from it in protest. Sorry Mousso.

    Why was this post placed in Daz Studio Discussion when it clearly isn't about Daz Studio?

    I'm not even clear why you find this objectionable - it has a genesis 9 character and outfit, plus a Genesis 8.1 version of the outfit.

    It may be considered a G9 bundle but would have been so much better it it had a G9 version of one of Linday's dforce hair priducts (that would have been an instabuy),  Once I saw the potential for G9, I quit buying G8/8.1 products so I will have to pass on the buncle.  Will probably get Ravena and the Linday outfit down the road when they go on sale again but with 8.1 poducts in this bundle, I'm out on this one.

    Linday's dForce hair is not rigged with bones, so it will work on G9 just fine using autofit.

    Maybe I'm getting used to the store filters and stuff, but what do you mean "classed as" a Genesis 9 bundle?

    Classed is used instead of categorised I think.

    Right, but classed or categorized... that still doesn't explain what is meant? It is a bundle and it has G9 items in it so I don't know if I'm overlooking a categorization in the store that this shouldn't be part of.

    There are always tons of sales in the store and there may be a sale involving purchasing G8 bundles or something like that where this is being excluded, I genuinely don't know what I may be overlooking here.

    Except some of his hair props do wierd things like not allowing you to change hair color because itr does not see the G8 root boneand some of the hair auto fits about 18 inches over the top of G9's head.

    I find nothing wrong with it, it offers 2 G9 products plus the option of that great outfit for G8/8.1.

    It would be wrong if all of it was for G8/8.1 but as it is, it is fine, in my humble opinion. 

    And not Mousso's fault. So you punish her by not buying something of hers, as if she had a say of how Daz is packaging that bundle.

    It isn't uncommon for bundles to have 1 or 2 items from the previous generation. In fact, some G8M bundles have G8F items. Examples:

    Niko 8 Supercharged: Arctek Cyberarms, Arctek Cyberlegs, Cyber Neon Catsuit

    Niko 8 Cyber Funk: Tuti character

    You don't?

    I would also say, why is it an 8 and 8.1 bundle, it has one item suitable for 8.1.

    This is sharp advertising, yes I am casting aspersions on Daz's marketting people.

    3 items just about make a bundle, however one of them isn't for 9, the other two aren't for 8.1.

    How can it be a bundle?
