A user asked me in private email if I could send them a link to the free stuff for Daz 3D. First of all, a few prefaces. There are many sites out there that have free content for Daz 3D, however you may have to do some work to get to it. This original post (OP) will be updated on an ongoing basis as sites or assets that meet the criteria (see the p.p.s. below) are submitted in the threads are offered.
Dudes (and dudettes): You should be regularly checking Daz 3D for free stuff, cause it's there all the time. Two ways to find it: (1) from the Shop tab, scroll the images to the far right and you will see a Freebies tile. Click on it and you will see a page of free goodies. (2) Click on the shop (upper left corner). Scroll down to where items start appearing, and sort by price from low to high. Free items will appear first in the list. Go there frequently as these assets change. Today I downloaded two huge bundles that had all kinds of clothing, hair, etc. Go already!

This thread is intended for freebies which have clear rights, including the rights to use the selected asset in commercial works or derivatives. That being said it is entirely your responsibility if you choose to download assets here to check the rights listed with the asset and confirm you can use them in the way you wish to. Those contributing to this thread (myself included) accept no liability should one of the asset creators come after you because you didn't read the terms under which they shared the assets.
This post is just a starting point. Good luck to all, and hopefully others will post their favorites.
Recently many posts have been made in the discussion about deep discounting and "almost free" products offered on the Daz3D site. While not strictly on topic for the thread, they are within the spirit of the thread of getting things for free (or as close to it as possible). Therefore, while not being added to the OP, these posts will be allowed in the discussion without negative repercussions. Thanks to all who take the time to contribute to this resource for the benefit of all users of Daz3D as a development platform.
p.s.: Before I get a blizzard of responses that there is a ton a free resources in Asset Releases, all of that is software that is licensed. Although it is possible to download it for free, using it in a game could be sketchy, because without the license, there is no right for the user to use it in a commercial game. This thread is specifically for authors who have released their products for *FREE* use with no license required -- most of them explicitly stating that their creations can be used in renders in a game, which is considered for commercial purposes. With truly free resources that allow it, users can use the resources in scenes they build for VNs and other purposes.
p.p.s.: As this section grew, it became clear that some sort of organization was needed. In the true spirit of community, @recreation took the time to come up with an organizational schema and organized assets within it. I hope as I add assets I can make sure I remember the schema and put things in their rightful places. As was mentioned later on in this thread, the criteria for something to be added to the original post is that the item/site be either a collection of valuable items, a particularly valuable asset (like the free Daz 3D model featured every two weeks), or an asset especially valuable to game developers (like the measurement scales, expression kits, morph kits). Otherwise, single items will be left in the thread responses so that people can peruse the threads to find individual items they may like as well.
Update [03/25/23] To all of the regular (and new) users of this post, it may seem like I have become disinterested/bored with moderating this thread. First, for some reason, I stopped getting notifications of updates to the thread, thus, the reason for my non-responsiveness. Second, I do have a full-time job, and it takes most of my attention. Third, it has been almost two years ago since a major Daz 3D update eliminated support for my video card, therefore, I don't receive any benefit from this thread whatsoever, and it is, as one would put it, "a labor of love" and support for my friends and fellow developers in the community. All of that having been said, there is absolutely no place in this thread for abusive behavior, either of the mod or fellow posters. It will not be tolerated and anyone who does so will be reported to F95zone management. I seemed to get away from this problem for over four years, but a recent post has reminded me that not everyone follows the course of civility and the reminder is necessary. Thanks for your patience and thanks to all members of the community that have continued to make contributions to this thread over the years.
