Finally got around to testing out G9. The shaders are definitely more advanced than G8, and the eyes look even better than 8.1. The eyebrows are a surprisingly big improvement too. When you zoom out, though, the improvements get a whole lot smaller. It's better, but I'm in no rush to switch!

Switching characters can be a GIGANTIC pain in the ass. Any kind of saved characters, morphs, textures, expressions, poses, etc. that you have saved generally won't work. Clothing and hair works sometimes but isn't reliable... and a lot of products I use don't have G9 versions!

NGL i feel more partial to G8, I feel like it's got its own style to the RFD brand of comics

So did Victoria 4, but you get used to the new version quickly enough. Also that particular texture and morphs (well, one of the morphs anyway) are the same ones that I used for Kaylee and other characters, so it's more specific than just the model being the same.

Ah, I getcha. I'm looking forward to whatever comes out regardless!

Yh you always slowly switch over time. Just baby steps I guess.

It took me like five years longer to switch to DAZ than it probably should have... but this is a much smaller improvement. I'm not even going to seriously consider making the switch until there's a full range of product support out for it... But by then, DAZ will have probably moved on to G10 already. That's the problem with them constantly rolling out new products with minimal backwards compatibility, it discourages upgrading

Perhaps a method of easing a switch is to make a new comic series using G9??? or every gen do the same thing???

redfiredog

Yeah but again, I'm in no rush and the amount of products that support it isn't very good at the moment
