I'm confused as to why G8 versions of G3 clothes are being added?

Autofit is terrible. This rules. https://sickleyield.deviantart.com/journal/Tutorial-Convert-Clothing-G3-to-G8-G8-to-G3-686682065

Thats why I made it multiple choice..... for some it does, for others it don't

I'm still too... lazy? busy? time-crunched? to do anything other than autofit and other 'instant' solutions.

Aeon Soul released G8 versions of their G3 Proxy set, as a free upgrade. :-)

Yes indeed; I still need to pick up the expansion pack, but that's going to have to wait.

Money. That's the reason. Money.

Except that the G3 and G8 versions are usually both included in a single product.  There is no extra money involved there for the PA who created them.

It should be obvious in context that's not what we're talking about.

Well since my name is on one of the items I'll respond :) I didn't do the refit for G8 version but you'll notice that all the refits are for very long dresses. If you never tried to use autofit for long dresses - it works pretty badly for anything other than a standing pose... and I suspect those dresses were popular enough for the Platinum Club that they felt it worthwhile to make available a version that will pose with G8 (which would involve a substantial amount of time to rig). This is not a new thing for the PC, they have had refits since the beginning. The artists whose name are on those outfits are not money grubs :P although personally I don't mind having a bit of money in my wallet occassionally - I just roll that way.

 

I wasn't suggesting it was for money..although people definitely should get paid for their time. I mean, if people don't want the new version, don't buy, simple as that..

I wasn't aware of the problems cause I have done standing poses on the few G3 dresses I used on G8. That's good to know why.

;) it’s always good to ask questions.

I also own that same Peasant Dress for G2F.  So each generation has the same dress.  In all fairness, I tried using the G2F version on G8F and then posing her and it was a mess.  Got all that weirdness around the chest and under the breasts, the shoes.....forget it.....  So for a couple bucks, I have all 3 versions just to get the fit for each one.  If it was something that wasn't a PC item, then no, I wouldn't waste the money.

And, the textures for all of the Daz Original refits work on all versions. Honestly, for the price and the time it saves me having to convert it myself, I'm not complaining.
