Daz does not want to support Vicky 2 and they do not want you using Vicky 2. They will not release the manniquin because they want you to upgrade to Vicky 3 and rebuy everything you have purchased for Vicky 2. The same thing will apply in regards to Mike 3. Look at it this way though, if just Vicky 3 gives you problems, just wait until you try using Vicky 3 with Mike 3 inside the upcoming Daz Studio. Plan to have to have a bare minimum system of: Pentium 4 3.6GHz 4GB DDR RAM 200GB HardDrive 128MB DDR ATI Radeon
