What do you have to buy to get the "anotomical elements" for Genesis 3 Female? I gather that they are a separate figure that you load like the the male genitals in previous versions of Michael.
I have looked in my Content Library.
Thanks in advance.

Any Genesis 3 Female Pro bundle comes with the Anatomical Elements
You need to buy the pro bundle for one of the characters that have been released for G3F ie, V 7, Gia 7, Olympia 7, Arabella 7, Karen 7, Bethany 7, Eva 7,
Many thanks. Have a great day.
I wish they had 'pro bundle upgrades' for those that got starter bundles to just get later what they missed in the pro. But I guess that'd require the store software to have a function that perhaps had the 'upgrades' at a higher price point unless one already owned the starter... I'm just guessing there wouldn't be a way to have an item require a prerequisite to be purchased. (it may be able to do that, I don't know, but given how touchy it seems to be, I'd rather the store worked than it have extra features stuffed in)
So I have to spend $134 to get the lady bits? No thanks.
Something like Complete my season/album in the iTunes store? Yes, that would be great.
If you don't need/want any of the pro pack content, I would recommend to go to Renderotica and purchase just the "anatomical elements", there are a couple of choices and the one I have works well with most characters.

have sent you a PM with some links
Thanks Cosmo71 and Thd777. Much appreciated.
no problem
I always thought that was kinda weird... That the private bits are not a separate content package. Now, I get that DAZ doesn't want to include them with in the basic figure, perhaps for some altruistic reasons like they don't want kids getting ahold of them or perhaps people with delicate sensibilities might go blind or something like that... Okay, you saved us from that, but it sorta screws over people who want to do tasteful nude renders, maybe not so much for the lady bits, (to be honest I have no idea what the package for that is, but I'd imagine it's something like crease morphs, or something like that), you might be able get by without them, but for a male... Unless the render is of a figure who had a really horrible shaving accident, it's gonna be pretty noticeable. It always seemed a little... I don't know what the exact word would be... Cheesy perhaps? It's like it's some premium pervert penalty you have to pay to play with the naughty bits... They know most people won't complain because you look like a pervert if you do, so add them to the highest priced package and anyone who needs it will quietly pay... It's not really like I can see any ethical reason for it to be that way... Back in the V4/M4 days you had the base figures, and the ++morphs packages... Unless I'm really remembering that wrong, they came with the naughty bits too... Basically you had a complete figure with a lot of morphs and you were good to go (not to mention that most of the add on characters required the ++morphs and little else).
I really can't see any clear reason for selling it that way, because any prudency argument goes out the the door because what if someone who is offended by such things wants the Pro Package... Or if it's age, what if a kid save up for it... That's obvious, so the only thing left is its for monetary reason, and that's sorta cheesy... Like a magazine store that doesn't sell Playboy or Penthouse... Out front... But in a dark room in the back for twice the regular price and only as part of bundle of Oprah, House Beautiful, and Popular Chinchilla Enthusiast magazines. You know... Kinda cheesy.
Megh, I don't use them so I don't really care, but since it was mentioned and I'm still pissed about the DRM thing I figured I'd chime in.
I don't mind if the bundle price is cheaper than buying stuff individually. That's just how bundles work.
But bundle-exclusive stuff really chaps my heinie.
This has be discussed frequently and in detail in many threads. The arguement goes that if DAZ was to make these items as a separate product it could be accussed of being an adult store, which would potentially get it unwanted ratings from various net nanny type apps, and more importantly, organisations like PayPal would demand a higher percentage of sales when the vender is deemed a trader of adult goods.
I am not saying I agree with this, but they have been given as reasons, and if true, I would understand why DAZ does this.
The Horse 2 Pro bundle includes textures and morphs that are flat-out unavailable as separate purchases.
I'm not sure how common it is, but that's at least two instances where the intent, I guess, is to sweeten the pot but ends up being a problem if you actually want specific items.
Okay, so you don't sell them as a separate package, instead you have an equivalent of the V4 morphs ++ package, where you are selling the "complete figure"... They have the G3 Female / Male Body morphs, which is where I'd have put them, charge a few bucks more and that's fair... Putting the naughty bits in with the "Pro" bundle is actually far more "adult content" like, because they have almost nothing to do with the bulk of the stuff in the bundle, which is mostly hair, clothes and poses... Putting them in the body morphs package makes sense because they are part of the body... And I can see the next argument they might make "no, they are a separate part"... And my reply to that is they represent a body part, not an accessory like shoes or a bikini.
Making the claim they don't want to get hassled or blacklisted as an adult site is a lame argument, just like when I tell people I never got nominated for a Noble Peace Prize because the nomination committee knew I'd be embarrassed with everyone knowing how brilliant I am... Or that magazine shop owner claiming he is bundling the adult magazine with $72 worth of Oprah and Chinchilla Enthusiast Weekly, because he is afraid if he doesn't people will think he is against reading and running a porn shop... Phhft, really... You do it so you can charge more... Period.
If it was part of a $134 complete professional morphs package that had both the head/face morphs, muscle morphs, body morphs, maybe something like the old creature creator morphs or wings, or whatever and then they threw them in with that, it would make sense... But it looks blatantly out of place when you read the contents of the actual "Pro" bundle... Which why I don't believe the argument and it makes me wonder what the "Pro" is referring to.
Whatever... At least the boobs and nipples aren't a separate part too.
no you haven`t take a look
visit renderotica and take a look for naughty bits
Thanks, but I don't need them... I was just commenting on something I felt was sorta cheesy.
Not sure what you are referring to here???

"naughty bits"...right up there with toast and toaster, which was cute for a while but was probably self-defeating in our attempt to convince DAZ to change their minds.
Talk like that supports the notion that these parts are content we should be ashamed of, and so should be camouflaged as two or three words in a description of a gigantic bundle. Vulva. Penis. Genitals, for generalization or the squeamish. If we're all old enough to have them, why aren't we old enough to talk about them?
Nah, just wait for a good sale on one of the pro bundles, like the one for V7 when version 4.9 was released. At that price, probably some other bits in the bundle that will be useful too.
This is actually a good idea. I had previously only purchased the V7 figure and one hair product from the pro bundle due to a budgetary constraint at the time of release. When the 4.9 launch featured the V7 pro bundle for somewhere in the neighborhood of $17-18.00, I took advantage of that. Just watch the sales , sometimes a truly spectacular deal will be there.
Kids are not old enough to have them, it seems...
Whatever the reasons our society frowns upon nudity, it's here to stay for the forseeable future. This is part of the reason I typically buy the pro bundles when I get characters on new figures. Whilst I don't really use them very often (if at all), should I ever need them it is better to have than to have not. Far easier to buy it the first time around than need it later on and fork out for the full pro bundle, which probably has content you already own.
I understand their reasons for not being able to put it into its own bundle, but some things have no easy solution. Hopefully they'll find a compromise one day.
Well, sometimes the forseeable future isn't as far away as one thinks.
I bet people 1990 said things like: Arnold Schwarzenegger is not going to have a political career in the forseeable future :D
Which, incidentally, is something I might have said two years ago about Donald Trump.
Anyway, I like the idea of offering a 'complete' bundle that includes the Genesis 2 Female / Male head morphs, body morphs, expressions and 'atomical elements' (sic).
I dunno... Compromise implies you are interested in the other side's point and your way doing things is not set in stone with epoxy coated steel rebar reinforcement rods.
I think including the "Anatomical Elements" in the Pro bundles of the adult characters WAS the compromise. Otherwise they likely would only be available via other sources.
Yes the anatomical elements form Any 7th gen pro character will be fine with the main Genesis 3 adult. figures
The Genesis 3 genitals work across the Genesis 3 line (per gender) as far as I know. The only difference being not all characters have matching textures for the genitals. Some don't have genitals textures at all.

Thanks Laurie, you specifically answered the proncipal question...I am very new to the DAZ world. Can you or anyone reading this be willing to link a 'how-to' to for applying elements from one character to another? Thanks!
